@eidodoos great question! The filter is placed onto the pump's exhaust. Vacuum pumps have a tendency to release an oil vapor. This vapor can stick to things in the surrounding room, causing contamination. The filter removes the unwanted oil vapor from the air. Without the vapor present, there is no worry of contamination.
Cannabinoid Preservation: So your weed stays potent and effective. Picture this: a pristine lab where cannabis is freeze-dried with surgical precision. No contaminants, no funky stuff. As testing standards get stricter, we need clean processes. Freeze drying minimizes contamination risks. It’s like the cannabis equivalent of a sterile surgical suite. Mold and Mildew Be Gone: Hang-drying cannabis flowers in the traditional way can sometimes lead to mold or mildew growth. But freeze drying? It’s like a superhero cape against those villains. No more damp corners or unwanted surprises. The Aromas: Freeze drying keeps the aromas intact. You’ll open that jar of freeze-dried bud, and-voilà!-it smells like a freshly plucked garden. No more faded scents or lost magic. Potency Boost: Traditional drying and curing methods are like the slow-cooked stews of the cannabis world. Tasty, but not as potent. Freeze-dried cannabis, on the other hand, flexes its muscles. It’s like the espresso shot version-strong, vibrant, and ready to party. The Bottom Line: Freeze-dried cannabis is like a time capsule for your stash. It preserves potency, quality, and overall goodness. So whether you’re a producer or a connoisseur, freeze drying is your secret weapon.
@conroybent4586 we have a 2l setup for $1,275.00, a 5l setup for $2,200.00, and a 10l setup for $4,100.00. Feel free to shoot us an email or give us a call for a personalized quote! support@shopbvv.com (331) 281-0154
Yes its cheaper. But I'm going to have to replace it. Plus there is a lot of steps and finding dry ice. If its my only option I would buy it, But its not my only option. I would rather wait an another year and get what I want
So many people post process with the extractor when they should be doing this. We calculated over 50% loss of THCA when doing this by extracting cold instead of post processing color out.
@davidmcghee7696 there is potential loss while performing any refined extraction. In your case you may have had the solvent in contact with the material for far too long. THCA can precipitate out of the solvent! Running multiple post filter setups to clean ethanol extraction could destroy all your terpenes. Ethanol vs hydrocarbon extractions are both widely used and both have their benefits per desired end result.
Can anyone help describe how to release the vacuum? Without all the particles collecting back onto the material? Just run the vacuum for a few seconds before releasing the vacuum? Seems like all gases would be in the air and condense onto surfaces without another method! Help!!
@@Jmarosii thanks! I do have that though. I know my question is reallly elementary sounding, haha so thanks for hanging tight with me…. As a loyal BVV customer haha If you see my recent upload, the vacuum is reached and with nearly zero temperature change, begins to boil off/evaporate.. what happens to that butane or moisture etc that is degassed? It stays in the “air” in the vacuum correct? So releasing that valve just brings all the suspended gas down to atmospheric pressure and temp and where did it go? Not out.. I am especially curious now, after my last run… I think I let it inside the vac too long bc it smells and tastes like dry crap…. Thanks for your help!!! Also, tell Angel I said thanks for the help with the hose fitting!!
@paulmanhart4481 it sounds like you need a solvent recovery system, such as a rotary evaporator. This unit is designed to catch any vapor before it makes its way to the vac pump. What type of liquid are you looking to boil off? Feel free to email us at support@shopbvv.com!
@mortezaebrahimi737 when ethanol gets a little too hot and bothered, it can cause some cannabinoid decarboxylation. But fear not! Cold ethanol extraction is the hero here. An observed increase in acidic cannabinoid concentrations indicates that cold ethanol extraction doesn’t play the villain by decarboxylating our precious cannabinoids1. So, keep it cool, my friend!
@@Jmarosii Thank you very much for your answer, dear friend. I have another question Regarding the color of the substance extracted after distillation, what should we do so that the color of the substance does not darken after a few days?
@garydoherty7043 maybe you have a screen/filter clogging too fast? You can use a 1/4HP rotary vane pump on a buchner funnel. In this video we used a 1HP vac pump.
@Gta_Selection might work! But that does not remove the chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can add taste and be an issue within further processing. Using a filter aid after extraction typically gives the best result.
@josephmcdonald it would depend on your preferences for what you would like mixed with the carbon. We have a wide range of options available, including carbon alone and various other media. Feel free to look through our website shopbvv.com or give us a call (331 281-0154) for more information.
@edwinlondono7587 yes! The vacuum pump will need to constantly pull. This removes any moisture that is released from the candies into the oven. Since these pumps need to be running the whole time, it is important to watch your pump's oil level and clarity!
@sjackson1739 to ensure a smoothly running system, it's important to minimize the bubbles in the return line. There isn't a visible maximum line, but all you need is to fill the water up to about two inches from the lid.
I bought a 3 gallon set from BVV. The pump finally gave out. That was 2015 so its great to see you guys still around and i just ordered another pump. Works great for small batch prcessing.
I have a question so we did this same method different equipment. How do you keep the candy from going stale afterwards in a few days? Is it from not removing or vacuuming long enough?
@anatol1204 the fritted disc filter inside this buchner funnel has a 20-25um design. It was intended to mimic a coffee filter. We have since changed our design and use a porcelain buchner funnel with ashless filter paper instead. The filter paper we sell comes in fast (20-25um), medium (11um), and slow (3um).
@Greenthumb42069 welcome to extraction! Using a CRC (color remediation column) on your CLS (closed loop system) has become a standard addition. The CRC is there to remove the unwanted impurities from the solution. When extracting a biomass, you can pull the undesirables such as chlorophyll, fats, lipids, etc. The bentonite clay in the CRC removes the dark colors from your material. The dark color typically comes from the degraded trichome heads during the curing process. The bentonite clay will remove all that!
