Empty new cartridges

@Dirtydabber Sorry… I am late… So can I simply take my QWET concentrate from my Source turbo and fill the cartridge or must it be decarbed first then fill?

I would rather not use the liquidizer anymore.

It would need to be decarbed first.

@Budbrother I appreciate it.

The part that trips me up is the vacuum oven… I truly don’t want to buy one. I am surprised by that statement coming from me. … But… They are very expensive… Any tips on a cheap but quality model?

Or should I just buy a press? @ChittyChittyBangin then decarb that and create carts?

A press will run you about 350. Im fine with my portable dab rigs, but thought about venturing into the distilate rabbit hole…

@ChittyChittyBangin @Budbrother Here’s the cheapest vacuum oven I can find:

More my speed… However, I have everything else… I should just buy it. It just seems so lab like… Never thought I’d have so much lab equipment.

You don’t need a vacuum oven. You need a vacuum chamber and later in the process you need a regular oven.

Something like this

“Choose a heat source that fits the desired time and temp. The temps involved here can be achieved in several ways: sous vide, Instant Pot, oven, steam, and a double boiler.”
“A vacuum oven works well, but you can also use other methods like a regular vacuum chamber (included in a DIY system) with a heating pad or just take more time to allow natural evaporation and purging.”

I have a vac chamber and temp controller on seedling mat.

Get a food warmer. Mine is glass-top and has temp range of 100(low) to 180 on high .i bought it at wall -mart. With a pan of water you can set a vacumn chamber in the water and get a temp sensor and figure out how to run at 100F in the chamber. Add your bho in a silicon bowl and run the vacumn when your temp is consistent. Leave on until no more bubbles. It can take 24 to 48 hours to degass but it works well.
