Cannatrol cool cure? Its a cigar fridge!

3 Likes

Sweet! Thanks for the offer buddy. If i get one, im going to drive a couple hours to a grow shop in Va. They have 3, and are also having a vendors day gig on saturday. Like a mini cannacon it sounds like. Several employees use the cannatrol, and im anxious to talk to them for sure. Ill update what transpires.
I dont remember who mentioned it, but yes, the vapor pressure management, is what sets it apart from a wine or cig fridge. As far as i can tell. Kinda feels like cheating, but that feeling will pass!..its passed🤪

So yes it works with vapor pressure. Humidity can be the same in different temperature degrees so instead of " chasing" and " trying" to aquire and maintain a certain humidity level you can reach that perfect humidity level by controlling the temp and dewpoint. If you notice in the pictures under the dew point reading is a smaller reading which is the humidity. So the default settings are 68 temp and 54 dew point which makes it a 60 rh. And so far this machine has maintained all of those reading within tenths of a degree not whole degrees . Incept for the first day in dry when you first load it full with a bunch of fresh cut bud it takes a day or so for everything to equalize.

Also what it does is works the water activity. All food and stuff has a water activity level that makes it safe or not . Any extra water activity bring different for different foods and or in this case bud is what makes available for certain bacteria to grow and is what causes mold . This eliminates that extra water activity and puts it at the safe level so that doesn’t occur. No extra water activity= no mold.
Which happens to be a good level for the bud where it has a good moisture content to add a little weight to your products without being so wet you can’t smoke it . Then my experience from the test run buds that I ran was a smooth smoke. :+1:
So the only thing that I think we sacrifice is the outside smell of the bud. That’s one of the first things everyone does when getting bud is smelling it. But what your smelling is terpenes escaping . So this sacrifices that smell by sealing it inside the bud for lack of better words. But of course once you break or grind that bud up you get those terpenes in affect and can of course taste and feel the difference smoked . Then yeah it’s a bit small but what new technology isn’t expensive as hell at first? People pay 500-1200 for a stupid ass phone every 6 months. This will reach out and touch someone in a different way and pay itself off in a couple/few runs with it does your phone do that? :joy:

On my way to Va, i got a call to meet some homeowners at 130, back in NC. So i got there, loaded up the cannatrol, and drove back. That was at 1030, and vendors gig wasnt till 12. Bummer, but i came home with what i wanted! Wife doesnt know yet. :grimacing::confounded:. I do new and remodel contracting, so its nonstop, homeowners wanting to show you or ask you something.
Do any of you know, if i have a plaNt that just finished drying, and just days ago went to grove bags, can you just cure with the cannatrol?? They dont take calls on saturdays i guess.

I don’t see why not? As I’m kinda sure Ed will tell you if you could reach them. I had a slight concern last weekend myself but emailed them. Bright and early I get a response , did a few back and forths then he called to explain situation.
Cure was set at 52 when I thought it was set to 54 dewpoint. He said will slope to 52 cure but he prefers it to be 54 so not a big deal to touch a couple buttons to put to your own liking . :+1:

So what o e did you get? Normal , black tint, or cannatint? Ya got it taken outta box yet? Show that puppy off I wanna see a couple snaps. :+1:

So I think I kinda overloaded my first run. Like by allot :joy: . So typically you loose about 75-80 percent water weight during dry and cure process right? Says your supposed to put up to 2.2 pounds so basically 25 percent of that would be a bit more than a half pound right?
I just pulled out almost 10oz of made of honor and just over 5 oz of zkittlzz. :joy: Put those in Grove bags and currently cutting and trim perhaps may e the rest of my gals will fit in there? :joy:

Thank you . It’s turning out to be way more than I anticipated. I’m almost done filling up the cannatrol again but still will have to do another run.
I was going to be pretty happy to get around a pound. It appears I’m going to get over double that. :+1:

:joy: sorry don’t mean to laugh just tripping on shrooms and could nearly picture myself being on the end of the "and how much did it cost " part. Hopefully you’ll be able to smooth that over with her. You’ll make your money back in no time or at least get your money’s worth out of it. :+1:

And thanks , I’m pretty stoked right now. Although is allot of damned trimming. :joy:

The manual doesnt get very detailed. Not $1700 detailed ! Supposedly its got some default settings, that you can just roll with?

It’s supposed to come with a manual . Did yours come with a white box that says cannatrol on top? Inside has your sponge and little sponge bowl, one of those phone screen tapping pens, some stickers, a can of something similar to duster/computer cleaner, the back drain piece, and a manual .

Either way the default setting is 68 temp and 54 dew point . Typically 4 day dry and 4 day cure but I add a little time to mine . Especially that I’m packing the machine past it’s recommended 2.2 wet.
If you don’t find your manual I would email Jennifer and tell them you got one from where you did but need a manual . If they haven’t already responded by late morning tomorrow then call them.
