Yes I am BHO extracting pollen, I think that covers everything.

 

Not really, being that pollen is the dusty jizz produced by male plants. 

 

 The misinformation banded around this site by some folks is a fucking embarrassment. :soap:

It’s all hash, we tend to stick to strains, totally avoid anything really hard and brown throughout, it just takes too long to breakdown and returns are usually really low, this is the kinda stuff we use:

Call it what you like, it’s what we use, my supplier calls it pollen or polly, his supplier calls it hash, I always think of hash as hard arse bars of soap from my youth and if I asked my supplier for hash it’s what I would get.

and nitrogen steps into the arena.... the push through is so bloody useful - saves a LOT of time and ensures you can keep your whole rig frozen throughout.

For an investment of £260 including the new top valve setup - bargain.

connected and vacuuming out the system prior to putting her on her new wheel station! More on that next week :)

double recovery while the next tube is loaded and pre-chills.....

new slab.... (1st run through) 
large.45898370_345521192671621_3095927892857585664_n.jpg

tray on the Left is first pull. Then I unloaded the tubes, allowed to dry, remixed, repacked, and re-ran - the tray on the right is the second run - notice how it isn't any darker? :D

This is where the tray on the left is at now -

Here's the second pull of the Ken's kush (it remained frozen throughout - straight back in freezer after first pull) -

gorgeous doesn't cover it....

Gonna hopefully re-fill the mine this week, so will document my second attempt and process used....

Hello all - time to introduce the new metamorphosis of the rig - she has reached (almost) her final form. 

I've now got a 300g 3" tube instead of the 140g 1.5" tube - what a bloody difference. packing and unpacking is 1000% easier and quicker now. 

Also bought a viewing window, an extra filtration plate, and a condensing coil. 

The viewing window is for the nitrogen push, the filter for cleeeeaaaannnn product, and the condensing coil for speed of recovery.

This was setting up the system before I ran it - frozen everything and vacuuming out all lines and chambers. 

Here is the condensing coil in the ice speeding recovery -

the coil is steeped in the ice alongside the gas chamber - once recovery is done I just put the coil in warm water. 



Pre-freezing my mine ready to fill!

Some lovely lemon diesel live resin that I did this week - stinks of gassy lemon!

This pic makes it look like there is lots of little bits of dust in the shatter - it's just stuck to the underneath side ;)

I had my last batch tested for THC levels....

large.46492621_197465621178028_349874882110029824_n.jpglarge.46473265_353921362048229_1542634849792163840_n.jpglarge.46521169_2212241289033683_2297213058411397120_n.jpglarge.46685371_314788335791758_8325180142016004096_n.jpglarge.46674507_376420299566252_8914566675706150912_n.jpglarge.46648853_340489936683355_2978176154642415616_n.jpg

It came out higher than all UK extractors we tested bar 1, and higher than any american extract! I'm pleased as punch, especially considering I've entered 2 cannabis cups next year - onwards and upwards! 

Here's the finished ken's kush honeycomb glass - got it tested as well - 66.5% thc, 6.2% CBD!!!! 

large.46520116_286160995353701_6730118417442930688_n.jpg


and the diamonds are cryo-ing! here's hoping for an easier time with this one....

@potato1356, great read buddy good stuff. I haven't really got into bho since rosin took of but all these diamond sauce pics I keep seeing on insta make me think of dusting my gear down. Looks to be a great setup you have there thanks for sharing atb.

Yes most people are drawn in by the safety aspect and cheaper setup costs :) 

My issues are - no live resin options for the press - no easy options to alter end product consistency (diamonds, sauce, caviar, honeycomb etc). 

Also the thc levels of most rosin is laughable compared to bho - a rosin presser got his extract tested with loads of us last week, and his rosin is seen as the best in the area by a long shot - All three of his extracts came out at 85%+ delta 9 thc - ouch. Heat ain't nobody's friend.

THCA under heat turns to THC, which we further combust and get a high.. I'm curious what's wrong with the extract being 85% THC? Am I misunderstanding something?

Just means that its possible more terps were lost - so greater THC proportionally, less flavour. I wouldn't make that assumption from the THC% alone though.
