washing diamonds with pentane

Patient thinking is key. May Life not life on you too often. Could I potentially do this to a fresh extract as well to wash for chlorophyll so I don't have to work with hexane at all? I immediately place the dish used while still very hot into my vacuum chamber and pull it down until the gauge shows 30" or the pump starts complaining lolz. Let it sit still for a few day, and the two fluids separate. It is amber and clear and can vape with very little respiratory irritation. Because I didn't want to mess up a separatory funnel with the black foul smelling mess, I poured the solution in a 1 gallon Ziploc bag, to which I added equal amounts of water and hexane. On another note, we are not that sure anymore about complicating the situation further with additional processes. At that point we stop washing and evaporate off the hexane. The resulting RSO concentrate is a dark harsh wax/tar (50% THC). I generally see the best results going from the most non polar solvent (hexane) and proceeding towards the least polar solvent one step at a time in the seperatory funnel. Besides name calling your post has little data to support your claim that environmental elements found in normal day to day living are hazardous beyond the hazards already present in the product. We buy the salt cheap by the bag, using salt intended for water softener use. At this point, after draining, we added 300ml of saline water and 300ml of methanol. In honor of 4/20, Oaksterdam University Executive Chancellor Dale Sky Jones speaks with Karina Nova at ABC7 News in the Bay Area. The deviation from routine extraction begins here. Zero nasal irritation and the relief sets in MUCH faster than edible products. I have tried this saline/hexane wash before on some oil few years ago. This low and slow method will encourage more nucleation due to increased temperature and pressure and larger crystal growth. Very interesting. Is it safe to smoke? I then pipetted room temp HPLC pentane on top of it, swirling it around until dissolved. Winterizing ISO, Methanol, and Denatured alcohol extractions: Even though Ethanol is polar itself, it can still be used to remove some of the undesirables they pick up, because it is not as aggressive a solvent as Isopropyl and Methanol. Post my progress back up wen I get back from vacation an my pentane comes in. Dissolving Acidic Cannabinoids for a THCA Tincture by Cat Scientific, FDA Rating and limits on various solvents, Washington State Emergency Rule on Flammable and CO2 Extraction, http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002893.htm, (/flacktek-speedmixer-grinding--milling/) Comments. We use an HPLC Reagent grade for this purpose, which we get from the local scientific supply store. 100% no moisture. This step isn't essential, but it did seem to help. Remember, FINISH YOUR EXTRACT!!!! Let it sit back into the freezer for another 2-3 hours so sediments will settle and plant waxes, lipids and chlorophyll will coagulate. Heck, I even get little gnats that land in it. I figured I can just add it to something and drink it (my body is not a big medibles fan, only what slid down as leftover in my mouth from sublingual use), but would love to be able to simply RSO it. However, methanol and ethanol being chemically almost identical, shouldn't differ at all as solvent, do you agree? DCVC has a few KEY advantages over this but is substantially the same idea. I handle the oil using a medicine feeder for rodents I got at Petco. Nice and cheap is great! The reduced yield is not as much as you might think, once you eliminate the non targeted element pickup. What you are removing is not that much by volume or weight, and the miscibility of pentane or hexane is low, though not zero. We think reducing it 10 to 1 or 2 should be safe. These techniques are for you to further explore and expand your understanding of forming THCA diamonds. Can I put it in a jar of Eveclear in the sun for 2-3 hours, then rubberband 2-3 coffee filters on the jar and filter out the green Everclear? Well go through the typical method of creating THCA diamonds using liquid petroleum gas (butane/propane) extractions. 2. is that although it is relatively non toxic, hexane still tastes like lighter fluid below toxicity levels, with our 130 ppm sensory threshold far below the Threshold Limit Value. Excellent post, we'll definately look into this in the future, sounds quite interesting. Same concept applies to pentane vs heptane. We start out by making four or five liters of saturated salt water in a glass (or ceramic) container, by mixing sodium chloride (table salt) in hot tap water with a hand mixer until no more will dissolve. Given the extremely low toxicity of the product to humans I personally would not hesitate to vape the oil after I did the above procedure. YOU MUST START WITH A SUBSTANTIALLY FILTERED extraction to begin with, so a first column run without alumina and just the fine frit filter of a buchner funnel pulled through is HIGHLY recommended at 100% iso as the solvent. Commercial n-hexane is a mixture of n-hexane isomers with a small amount of cyclopentane, pentane, and heptane isomers. From your post I assume you are also after THC. Perform your extraction as normal but maintain a ratio of solvent to biomass between 6:1 and 10:1. In my attempts to polish with hexane I have done the following: Thanks Really icky goop in bottom of centrifuge tubes actually makes a good skin lotion that immediately softens my skin. The diamonds I had took maybe 10 mins to dissolve but its a noticeable difference. I have recently made nearly pure thca powder in my cls by accident. The process you see in the bid was copied from an old patent on removing alpha pinene from citrus oil meant for human consumption. To try and make that layer easier to see and remove I have tried heating up the salt water, and cooling it down. In minutes it hardens into tiny air pocket ridden pieces. GW, I've asked our chemistry brain trust Pharmer Joe to also share his thoughts, but my first thought is that a warm methanol extraction would be chock full of extra stuff, that as you've noted is difficult and time consuming to remove. ! I do not recall any experiments with salt water and acetone. Sounds like a ploy.. I'm also allergic to chlorophyll so I'm trying to kill two birds with one stone and stick to alcohols which I react much better to. Will this work? Less volatile means it'll be harder to remove.. Nucleation is when atoms begin to bond together due to reaching a specific temperature called the solidification temperature. We start out by making four or five liters of saturated salt water in a glass (or ceramic) container, by mixing sodium chloride (table salt) in hot tap water with a hand mixer until no more will dissolve. I am thinking of peppers. Ethanol however, is a very different story, being as I am in the UK and Everclear is not on sale here (nor do we have a limey equivalent). I take the glass which is cool to the touch and dab my goop (wax or shatter or scrapings) onto the glass which is held horizontal. Preliminary research into THCA has shown this cannabinoid possesses anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, anti-emetic, and anti-proliferative properties. Close the vessel and very slowly increase the temperature to 25-35. #11 if small unwanted seeds start to appear over time isolate wanted seeds repeat step #7 and up I am positively certain that the product is fully decarboxylated and my oh my is it potent. C. A vacuum of -15 to -20 mmHg should be used to assist the purging process. I do not take lightly the handling of chemicals, but I will not either toss away opportunity to improve my existence because of fear. Most smokes very little. Although developed from and for the West Coast American adult use market, the true purpose may lay in the medical market by segregating the purest molecule for targeted treatments. Isolating cannabinoids to their purest form, such as THCA diamonds, and recombining them with terpenes is the first step in creating treatments that target specific symptoms. Here is what I would do with a glob of black tar as you describe. Be careful, though, as too much solvent or solvent that is too warm will dissolve . This is because every extraction can be different. It will remove nearly all the odor and "terpene" rush you get too, but the medicine that I am after is THC and that is joyfully intact and as decarboxylated as it can get without further time and heat. You can also place out in the sunlight for a few hours to breakdown more chlorophyll before placing into the freezer for the last time. Cite. Then, reduce the pressure in your system to -30 mmHg, or as low as you can go based on elevation, using your vacuum pump. Wash with a cold alkane e.g pentane, hexane, heptane, or spin in a centrifuge. do a vac purge? Boy Howdy!!!! You can make nearly pure iso propyl alcohol for pennies by salting down rubbing alcohol. If you have time to talk I am keen to learn more and would love to start a rappor with one of my idols. It is also incompatible with strong acids, alkalis, and oxygen. Sorry, we don't have an account for that email. Pleasant tasting frankly. *if you are left with dark chunks in your pure thca seperate these out repeat steps #4+ When you prepared this, was the Onion "Dried"? Good luck. After shaking it well, I hung it from one corner, to let it stratify, and after it had, I clipped off the lower corner of the Ziploc bag, and by pinching it, and controlling the bleed rate, I was able to bleed off the water, alcohol, and emulsion layer, so that only the now gold hexane solution remained. In my humble opinion, you are doing it absolutely right. My experience with just acetone and water produced nothing useful. Hexane grabs > all of the medicine for sure, but the real point of this article is to show > one posssible use of it. Begin adding COLD water in a pippette, about 1ml-5ml at a time to the seperatory funnel. Drained again. Hexane and water do not mix. You dry load your sample on top of the aluminum oxide column. Google has tons of stuff on it. - Roughly how much ethanol would we need per gram of oil in order to purge the hexane at the end? Garden. Its made specifically for extractions and concentrates. I just did my first ever wash in a buchner funnel with pentane. Do you do this with your cold crash crystals ? Second, I let the substance dissolve around 80 degrees, with some agitation. Run the rotovap again. I have employed many solvents, including hexane, ethyl acetate, isopropyl alcohol, acetone, light patroleum ether, water, and a litany of polar household cleaners. This is VASTLY more than our senses will detect, and is also VASTLY more than most bodies will ingest before violently regurgitating. I use a metal pick to lift the extract up off the glass and drip it down through the flame several times until it no longer sputters and pops when I do so. Check the MSDS because the word light naphtha only means it boils between 30C and 100C, so it can contain Benzene.. Salting down is a method of fractionalization for this solution. or just that less time is needed? other than the diamond you are focusing on. Hazards What is this information? After it is lit I turn the cigarette up so anything fluid drips out and I let the icky part flame off. Also, when mixing multiple solvents into extract it can be a pain in the rump to purge them out, and forget about recovering the solvents lolz. It is cheap, highly effective, safe, and uses just a Buchner funnel, vacuum pump, and the vessels to collect them in. The issues I am having is that I do not get a distinct phase separation between the water, emulsion and hexane layers. Once the extraction has a syrupy consistency, I use a vacuum chamber to purge off the remaining alcohol, and this is where things get complicated. com https://onlinecannamedshop.com. Chlorophyl is not soluble in water. Either ethanol or methanol have the same issues, though the dielectric constant of methanol at 32.7, is higher than either isopropanol at 17.9 or ethanol at 24.5, so is more prone to extract polar molecules like chlorophyll. We usually use coffee filters for this purpose, or if we have a larger amount, we use a Whatman # 1 lab filter, with a vacuum assist. I'm highly allergic to fossil fuel based solvents (makes me break out from eczema, hereditary from my father), and am using this for a food grade extraction so salt in the mix is not an issue. Purged the pentane/hexane, the oil hasn't changed its color, it was still black. Routes of Entry: Absorbed through skin. Once the vessel is filled, tightly close and chill it to -75. Bake it at 275F-300F until the cooled product is dark brown and crumbles easily between your fingers. While it is easier to use a process that minimizes their extraction in the first place, if that is a moot point, because you already have an extraction with excessive non-active ingredients, here are some ways to clean them up: After re-dissolving the extract in ethanol or hexane, it may simply be filtered to remove the material that is insoluble. A review of the hexane Material Safety Data Sheet shows that the oral rat LD50: is relatively high at 25000 mg/kg. How old the material? Hello Mr Gold, Thank you for your book, it must have been hard work publishing a book of this nature back then. Step Five: repeats several times. 3) After nap, I would vape some good oil, then, after cooling I would disolve the goop from the oven in a mix of 70% isopropyl alcohol/30% water (rubbing alcohol). yuck. Much longer than is normally attributed to it. Here is what a winterizing filter cake looks like, while still wet. Out of all the hundreds of experiments I have done it is clear to me that DCVC will become the standard for pufiying extractions. We typically freeze everything and do a subzero quick wash to avoid as much of them as possible, but soaking overnight at ambient, is pretty much guaranteed to extract them all. you will dissolve more thca than wanted Do you have an email graywolf? My last batch was all small diamonds. Fortunately there are ways to remove undesirables, though at the expense of yield and some of the other terpenes, so there is compromise involved. Rock on Oregon. This is off the question topic, but I will comment I do use acetone to clean up all my glass (I burn extract/solvent inside ceramic dishes so it gets gunky). If they are growing slowly this is the ideal saturation level. We redissolved the same oil in pentane/hexane. Do you honestly believe the extracts you obtain do not have dust, eyelashes, bug parts, and every other thing that floats around in our atmosphere? If we wish to filter it further, we run it through 0.45 or 0.2 micron syringe filters, which takes out any remaining plant material, as well as any bacteria present. When performing your extraction, its important to chill your jacketed extraction system to -50oC or colder. Perhaps tongue in cheek, but I am more or less making fun of the paranoia we have in using chemicals with tech names, when in fact we ourselves are just a bunch of chemicals. What am I doing wrong, can someone please help! I'd add 3 parts distilled water to 7 parts Isopropanol from my material wash and just follow the same process for salting the water out once i'm done, repeating until I have to use the refractory index of the two fluids to tell them apart and look for that visible layer yea? Since you are already involving Hexane in the formula, why not extract with it in the first place? https://vimeo.com/166726729. Bottom line, all this hexane method. Place that dissolved mixture in front of a fan in an open container so the fan ripples the water. Only tiny bits of immiscible particules. FDA lists Hexane and Methanol as Class II solvents, while Ethanol and Pentane are Class III. I reasoned that the RSO had been ethanol extracted soxhlet style, so guess that ethanol was present. This article was written by Michael Sassano and Anthony DeMeo of Somai Pharmaceuticals. By googling, I learned (contrary to my vast knowledge beforehand lolz) that some things, like iso and water, cannot be separated by distillation. When you add salt to the mix it is very tough to know how that impacts things. Step Two: I load my raw extract into a ceramic cigarette. I can even take the extract so cleaned up and when placed on a cool glass surface can seperate the components easily with a flame above the goop and a tilt to the surface. #4 feed hc into jar slow agitation swoosh liquid around in jar you will see it start to pull the unwanted parts of the thc-a out. We still send out samples for others material to test for pesticide, but if you know the history of material that you've grown yourself, you should know what you used. I have tons of material sprayed with anzamax and I need to know how to remove it. feel free to add any advice fam. I might have to drain the bottom layer off a frw times as I do this. Sweet amber dreams. I that case, I would switch to ethyl acetate and try again oops, here is the site There are orders of magnittude less solvents used in this process compared with Flash Chromatography. thank's for the information. I had some weedahol (Green Dragon) that was clearly not decarbed before hand. Continue the evaporation until complete. Ended up a little dark so I ordered a gallon of hexane, warmed some up, and dissolved oil in it. Could I just skip the first step of extracting from the plant material and evaporating that off just to re-dissolve in a solvent, and just go straight to salt water washing after the original extract from the plant material is in the acetone? I filtered the hexane and poured that into a Pyrex pie plate, which I blew air over with a fan to evaporate off. Then I quickly turn the glass to vertical, and the part of the puddle that is "runniest" flows down a short distance as a "drip". I have also tried using salt water, also isopropyl instead of water and a blend of isopropyl and water as the aqueous phase. Leave in freezer the whole time? The following is a typical MSDS Section 8: http://www.sciencelab.com/msds.php?msdsId=9927187, Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. This terpene layer can be poured into a secondary crystallization vessel with the steps repeated to allow for further precipitation of THCA. Each time you pour off the terpene layer and leave the crystals behind, the potency increases. The good news is that ethanol is not insalubrious below 5000 ppm, according to the FDA pharmaceutical standards. It has extremely low volitility. I am absolutely certain, from personal experience that these two things are true. The mind change is unmistakable. If you need to explain it, maybe the person you are explaining it to shouldn't be doing it. The mix will clearly seperate into multiple layers. Two Dawgs The "splat" part that held to the cool glass and did not run down when tipped is almost opaque and looks grainy like wax in a honey jar at the top. Turn on stirring and turn on the heating bath and set to 45 C. If it works out (it should) and we go that route, we'll need to preserve half of our flowers in some way, enabling us to store them away securely so we could process one halve now and rest later. Hello! About 5-10 minutes later the bubbling settles down so it looks like fizzy cola a bit with uniform and slower bubbles. There are limits to what you can wash out with brine and if you have a lot of chlorophyll, it isnt really water soluble, but washes away in micelles, so it doesnt come out easily. easily avail at any glassware supply lab supply, or with the correct search term, on amazon . I have not included the full details as I have been asked not to discuss this in this site for safety reasons. http://www.collectioncare.org/MSDS/naphthamsds.pdf Anyone I can email with or speak to? To wash with ethanol, redissolve the hexane honey oil in ethanol at a ration of about 10 to one and boil off the alcohol. EXTREMELY potent when captured in a Vapir party bag. June 29, 2022. After mixing, water goes down, but chlorophyll stays with top layer, with hexane. Easiest to avoid extracting them in the first place by using subzero extraction techniques, but iffn you are stuck with a bunch, you arent dead in the water. I evaporated and purged at high vacuum the yellow layer by itself and the dark hexane layer. Poof - extremely concentrated THC that vapes with zero irritation in the lungs and no hacking choking and so forth and..it is the most potent form I have used. mandurah news body found Login. Step V : Here's where the chromatography machine comes . Be careful, though, as too much solvent or solvent that is too warm will dissolve your THCA. Some questions that we have keep pentane in liquid state if becomes oil like viscosity add a small amount of pentane too much and you will dissolve thc-a too little and you will not be dissolving the unwanteds anymore Washing Diamonds: There are a few ways to go about this. Link to a pdf of the issue, Previous Post: Faculty Feature: Anthony DeMeo. I'm wondering in regards to using UV light, if Sylvania UV-Lamp 400W E-40 would be of choice or is it too powerful? Clarified neem oil is food stuff - lipids and fats. It is a frost free freezer. I remove and put in freezer. 95% thca cristals are white. Place this paper on a preheated cookie sheet (250F) and it will bubble briskly for several minutes. Clarified neem oil is said to be hydrophobic. Then, reduce the pressure in your system to -30 mmHg, or as low as you can go based on elevation, using your vacuum pump. Inhale this dense vapor, and you might even talk to the Man on the Moon. No reason to wait to add the alcohol. At the time I did not think anything of the yellow layer but save everything to study later. The smoke is horrible so I don't believe any THC is left at this point. Hexanes dielectric index is closer to 1.3 and for all practical purposes, isn't miscible, so I thinking not. You can purchase these on Amazon. Most users consume diamonds in a dab rig by heating the dab nail with a butane torch and applying a "dab" of diamonds inside the heated nail to vaporize it. Should you add the everclear to the butane/oil before it has evaporated? I use isopropyl alcohol and water as a solvent system because it is inexpensive and much safer from a fire hazard and fume point of view than systems that use hexane. The only thing I have extracted by intense boiling in water is some pinene which is partially miscible in water (no idea about salt water here). correction - "condensation nuclei" (it has been decades since my meterology courses in professional pilot school), I'm pretty sure I get the picture, but question whether you do or not brother/dude/man, as well as your intent in wording your input. N-Hexane boils at about 69C/ 156F and has a high vapor pressure, so it is easy to evaporate, but harder to completely purge. under the title These Diamonds Likely Wont Last Forever. Reprinted with permission. We must have repeated this at least 10 times. That is called a "Seperation Funnel" they come in various sizes. Hi Thanks for the valuable knowledge. And the resulting mind change from this product is absolutely the most premium experience a regular extract user can enjoy. THC is very hard to get to volitize/boil but the rest of the gunk can be removed/destroyed by heat. Hopefully, improving processing techniques and purifying cannabinoids will help lead to future cannabinoid-based research so we can begin manufacturing cannabinoid-based drugs for treating specific ailments, thereby moving away from the anecdotes that we have today. Was looking for more info on dissolving an recrystallizing in pentane. I saturated the oil in ethanol, ran it through a vacuum assisted filter using a watman 1 filter, pulled out a ton of gunk, then dumped hexane and saturated salt water into the seperatory funnel as instructed, poured out the water and ethanol mixture, using the funnel, saving the hexane and terpine mixture that was the dark color on top, just like the picutres, and I have been running salt water though allllll day and the color isn't getting any lighter. Chemical name :N-Pentane Supplier's details : N-Pentane Product use :Synthetic/Analytical chemistry. I have done many experiments with hexane, acetone, alcohol, and ethyle acetate as well as water. Ive tried to read as many threads as I can find on the subject, but most use butane for THC-A or if pentane is used, its to recrystallize CBD. Recover most of the solvent, or about 90 percent, at 18oCthis will preserve your terpene profile. Solvents in Class 2 (Table 2) should be limited in pharmaceutical products because of their inherent toxicity. Alas, UV radiation also destroys cannabinoids, but fortunately at a much slower rate, and three or four hours in the sun is usually enough. Then run that through the column until dry and save it seperately. Easy to visually identify each substance mostly by color this way. THCA is white when pure (or close to pure). Less dense than water and insoluble in water. How or can I at all remove neem oil from my bho? My extract begins to decarb noticably with very little heat. All Answers (6) treated generally refers to washing the reaction mixture.Do no throw the ether.It is generally wash ether that you can use it again.MgSO4 is a dehydrating agent.So you just place . There is a SURE fire way to remove the polar substances from your extract, and furthermore purify your compound to either a pure cannabinoid product or nearly pure. It is interesting to note that rubbing alcohol, being a mix of pure water and iso, cannot be fractionalized through evaporation. For the final time, all of that goes back in the rotary evaporator. I have found the following site to be a good source on information on this sort of thing. We've got a bulk quantity of medicine that we would like to polish. Pentane is a highly non-polar, light hydrocarbon solvent, that acutely dissolves THC instead of plant matter. Even at the hobby level for me it gets spendy to just evap it all. At 250F, there won't be alcohol or water left. I am trying to polish my ISO with hexane. It was nearly pure THC, sweet chalky flavor and delicious. After a day or 2 in the oven (around 95 degrees F) I consider it evaporated. ********* I have never had any evidence that an acetone/extract mix can be "washed" with water.
