Great point about small unit and the atmosphere in your lines. Considering the size of the tanks the atmosphere in the hose would be a high percentage of the volume
Unless you worked in Europe, you probably didn't do much work with recovering hydrocarbons. Or maybe you did. The US doesn't have much r600/r600a system to work on.
@@jacklegminercanada3866 I’m a HVACR technician. So funny thing about vacuum is... is under vacuum, the freezing point of anything raises. (Kinda like the radiator in your car being under pressure, which raises the boiling point). Do you have a vacuum pump? Put a shot of water in a glass and put it under vacuum. You can freeze it at room temperature. In HVAC there is a concern in the community if you pull a vacuum on a refrigeration system TOO fast you will freeze any moisture in the system. Well in a small blasting tube, you IMMEDIATELY pull that small space into a DEEP vacuum.... and any light moisture is going to freeze. Pulling a vacuum before or after probably will produce near identical results either way, So though “pulling a vacuum before freezing” is logical, the fact is you probably froze any moisture in the tube when you put a deep vacuum on it (in seconds) anyways. And yes... you hold a deep vacuum long enough, the ice will sublimate. It’s physics.
well done bro it some times amazes me how much oil i get some times off of a trim run we have 3 rosin presses and some times i prefure to blast my pucks if ther extrs sticky,and i have to say its unreal how great the quality comes ou t . if i hjad the whole closed loop collection vessel and the other tanks as well i have it soon as well .... ps bang up job its the trash we turn to gold
That's a nice little rig! Thanks for sharing. I've been slowly building up my system using your discount code! Just got a dexaing column in this week. 👍👍
99.97% Anhydrous alcohol rinses the collection chamber out nicely, and evaporates off with no residue. Really puts the shatter in the result as well :)
Was this a new system for you? I've been using it for apx 8 years you need to be careful with recovery your oil will travel over with the solvent if you aren't careful
It you don't have a vacuum oven is there any reason why you could not just pull a vacuum on the collection chamber and warm that up in a water bath? It seems like essentially the same thing.
pull the vac, seal it, THEN chill down the vessel to achieve true maximum-possible vacuum. Trust me (test it and see!), the resulting vacuum effect will go beyond the maximum pull of the vacuum pump by itself. Whereas vacuuming the vessel once it's already chilled (as shown in the video) will result in a vacuum only as deep as the pump can deliver by itself.
I'm a chemist, so I want to explain things a bit here. While you would be correct that heating the vessel while pumping the vacuum and then chilling after would produce a harder vacuum it is actually pointless in this scenario because the vacuum itself goes away the second you add the butane. It is not the actual vacuum that is important, the only important part is that only butane gas is in the chamber and no air, which itself exists at high pressure not low pressure. The reason for this is that air, when in contact with the cold surface of the receiving vessel (the one in the dry ice) wouldn't do anything special other than become cold air. Butane gas however as it gets cold will condense into liquid pulling in more butane gas from the source vessel in the process. Therefore if you have too much air mixed in with butane this process slows down and it takes longer to move from one vessel to the next. But once the process starts there is no vacuum it is all at high pressure. So there is no actual benefit from producing a hard vacuum in the first step.
I saw the cooling as a waste of time but pulling a vacuum on this system with what I would assume is trimmings is going to take some time as the moisture comes out of the product.. What kind of time is needed at this point?
You are so want to pull the vacuum before you chill When it's chilling with no vacuum the atmosphere will create ice and the ice will not vacuum out common sense
My problem with the larger one, the 135g mini extractor, it says in the description that it only can use one can of butane max, that's not enough to extract it all, it will take more than a can to get through all that material. I assume it will take like 3-4 cans.
+kody “sorrynotsorry” Frase under vacuum apparently not. i think thats what i heard... bc i thought that too! .... but i think when you lines, tank and the material columb is under full vac it doesnt need all that extra... but im no CLS expert
Ok I know I'm to late and way to high but I could have used more explaining twored the end there after you shut of the vaxume and the rambaling made me a little confused but good work
what kind of vacuum pump is that oil or oil less if it uses oil do you have any special filters or anything on it. also how often do you change the oil in the pump? thanks for great video!!!
Good video sir. Question, I could I also put a small amount of Everclear in the bottom of the Collection Container to help the extract slide out of the container easier? I've seen someone do it before didn't know if it would help.
Nicholas Hamil sure after you have extracted you can use everclear to help it out and now they just upgraded the mini a lil bigger and with splatter platters for a easy pour
wouldnt a closed column ice jacket be a better set up being you would have a valve between your tube and tank so you can marinate first before you dump? then release back to storage tank. and how about using a can liner for your gold? alcohol is terrible and so is scraping
this was informative but you didn't distill the tane? other than yield increase and easier terp preservation, this stuff is no better than open blasted bho.
BTW, you forgot to mention your return. I know that it depends on material quality, and you used trim. Also will the total includes second run ,or will the first run be enough to extract all trichomes by extending soaking time. Thanks again.
+Donald Griffin I usually dont ever mention a return due to everyones material they use is different and have a few that go on every word I say so when they dont get a return as well I do they freak out and start calling names and bashing the equipment and stuff. and you can follow the directions they give you so you can weigh your butane and extractor and know the limits to put in. hope this helps and sorry I didnt mention returns. and also all strains and even plants run different and get different returns
the mini varies the simple unit uses one can and it goes up from there when you upgrade the instructions will tell you the weight that is needed of butane and all cans of butane have different weights so you will have to follow the instructions and weights for the extractor and upgrades that you have or gonna get
I purchased this unit and Im experiencing pressure loss. leaks out of where the line threads onto the unit. and once it leaked from the spatter platter. what am I doing wrong !! lol thank you
+AmerikanPBT i doubt your doing much of anything wrong, alot could have happened during shipping. to make sure I dont have any mishaps during a run I do a dry run/distill to test and clean. before you do a run with material do one with out and when your done wipe out the empty equipment with a tack cloth to clean the mystery oil and you can test everything at the same time so you will be killing to birds with the same stone. hope this helps and will try to help more if needed
So im considering using a regular open butane extraction system, what is the benefit of the closed loop? I presume better yield? Seems like heaps more expensive equipment.
Note to Millennials, the video is less than 20 minutes long. How hard can that be? You can also be checking you phone while watching the video to make the absolute best use of your precious time. Then there is your Cheetos stash you could be dipping into, completing your trifecta...cause nugs make you soooo hungry.
the order page is a clusterfuck..... when you go to recovery, there is not much need to pull vacuum on the first source tank for recovery.. it is full of pure butane gas already and is only waiting to see some cooling .. Run 2 or 3 batches then dump the thing...
Just curious Dirty, how much dry ice did you use on this run? I've just brought the system the next size up and can't wait to run it, just need to know a rough amount of dry ice I need to order. Cheers bro
with the mini 10 to 20 ponds will do great and get pellets if you can, the block will work too just more work lol you can get away with 10 but always good yo jave extra
Can you put parchment paper in the collection tank so you dont leave a gram of oil on the bottom? Seems a waste to me and a pain in the ass if you need to try to scrape that out.
+Donald Griffin you dont have to have dry ice but things will go alot slower like 10 times slower lol. a run with dry ice will take around a hour where a run with just ice can go longer then six hours. the minis will go a lil faster but dry ice will help everything run alot smoother and faster. hope this helps

Just got a mini with splatter platter and sight port havent used it yet waiting on vacum pump coming cant wait great vid thanks peace
so did u use it yet?
You should vacuum before you chill to avoid condensation inside the closed loop
I know I would...
Pull a deep enough and long enough vacuum... any water or condensation will sublimate... and there won’t be any moisture.

Great video ditty! I need to look into one of those.😊👍✌
That's a nice little rig! Thanks for sharing. I've been slowly building up my system using your discount code! Just got a dexaing column in this week. 👍👍
I have this now.. double the size column planning on running about 1,200 ml worth of butane through it
99.97% Anhydrous alcohol rinses the collection chamber out nicely, and evaporates off with no residue. Really puts the shatter in the result as well :)
im impressed, if those things had a little shatter plate on the bottom to make the pour out cleaner and less scrapping
They do offer that splatter platter for extra. I think a 4x4 spool, platter, and extra gasket and clamp would run a little over $100
Shoot it, dry it, bake it. BHO isn't complicated, this loop is.
Sweet I might upgrade my collection container to the splatter platter model and use my other container as second Butane Tank down the road.
You did very good!!!!
awesome video man . liking your videos here in the uk
Please, where can I find written material explaining how this CO2 extraction process is done?
Hello did I see a Pei in the back-Ground? Great content
Hi DBW food for thought love and peace 😊
Thanks for sharing dirty, great video
MrNewmanRay thanks for watching
Thank you for this informative video lesson
Talking in circles. Atmosphere is gone within seconds of turning on pump. No leaks means no loss of pressure. Goddamn
1. It's still only safe when outside.
2. Dry ice is 3x more expensive than butane; why save it?
Was this a new system for you? I've been using it for apx 8 years you need to be careful with recovery your oil will travel over with the solvent if you aren't careful
hi , thanks great vid , if you use high grade nugs would you wash the nugs twice or is one pass enough ?
you could but id do it at different times do your first run then put aside then do the second so you can see the difference.
Love Brett!!

WOW this nikka talks SO SO MUCH!! I just cannot sit through another min
what is that machine after the extraction, when he talking about cleaning the kit. is it like an oven?
What do you mean dewaxed?
You need a digital vacuum gage to show you how many inches of mercury you are pulling to ensure you are as close to 30 as possible.
when that pumps stops making all that racket u just wait like 2 min and u are better than -29
