You want an efficient decarb but keep in mind that the entire point of decarbing is to remove the carboxyl group to prevent what was described above, but also you're removing volatiles that would otherwise contaminate your main body pass. Your concern should be achieving full decarb without excess CBN conversion, don't worry about retaining anything below THC's boiling point, you want it gone anyway.

Digital Vacuum gauge is IMO required. You cant even start your main body fraction until you are in the 100micron level. That's how you know all the terpenes have been fully boiled off. If you are not in the 100micron range prepare to pop the fraction up in the 230*C range or higher and taste to be negatively effected. You want to be in the lowest achievable vacuum and to be right around 200*C range for the least degradation of the THC.
Im popping my main body fraction @ 200*C and about 65microns, I still would like to achieve lower vacuum levels. Maybe ill upgrade the pump next year.

The Bullseye Digital Vacuum Gauge is awesome and the non-bluetooth version is only $449 right now. It comes pretty highly recommended amongst my peers.
