ripp asked me to drop in and run my sketch re vape juice how i do it...........
i am also quite new to the vape oil + pen = ceramic coil 3.8w................ 1ml tank.............. tbh i got my first stick pen off amzn at 21 quid, in stick pen shot glass, silicone syringe bottle loader, with large bore syringe, and 1 pen tank with coil....... it works ok............. but it lasts for about 20 pulls, then ion battery low warning starts flashing............
here is how ended up making my own vape oil...........
i extract with a stainless steel pipe type silicone grip, butane essential oil extraction tube, i put 14g in the tube, = not to tightly packed..... i blast through 2no 300ml cans of pure butane, into an elliptical curved edge, pyrex dish, this sits in a steel tray 4cm deep. Where 60c water is poured round the outside (Bay Marie), and the heat on the outside of the pyrex dish from 60-70c kettle water. Speed evaporates the butane fluid in the pyrex dish......
this is then warmed to 30c to evac any remaining butane gas held in the viscocity of the oil extract laying in the dish bottom, post transevaporation of the butane liquid gas, from the pyrex dish...............
i will leave the oil in the dish in a heat controlled reptile electric heat matt, to smooth out and remove any final butane from the oil.................this is the full melt pure product left in the pyrex dish post butane detox.......... this is then put into the fridge 3hr............... so it's brittle when scrapped out of the curved edge pyrex dish.......... the brittle shatter is then either date tagged and frozen.............. or in the 5c fridge for a second dipping........
i make it up like this................... the ratio is two "ml" of liquidizer to one = 1g of shatter. Put 1g of shatter in a shot glass with the 2ml of "EJmix" = PEG400 liquidizer fluid............... then microwave @700w for 7 seconds, it will melt the shatter into the PEG400 @30c........................ check temp with an infra red hand held temperature gauge, to see you hit the 30c.....................
then suck up with the large bore syringe the warm liquidized shatter, honey oil, and put into the silicone squirt bottle, with large bore syringe tip, to squirt into the 1ml pen vape bowl..................
from 14g dry bud at 62%RH, i get 3.3g of BHO extract, ex butane purged, i don't vacuum purge, it's not necessary at these viscosity's etc................... as i know the weight of the empty clean pyrex dish, before and after extraction etc........... = BHO extract weight....... from the 14g half oz that went tin the extract tube...
1ml of vape juice lasts about 20-27no 4 seconds pulls on the pen tip............... thats a lot of stone from one ml.... i now use as my vape liquidizer, quetomax "MCT C8" oil, to make my vape juice, as it was recently shown. That PEG400 / 300 / 200 above temps of 55-60c.............. re convenes into a % formaldehyde..... which is carcinogenic............ ive check my ceramic coil it runs at 32-38c after it gets stocked up on a Friday night binge, vape binge !.....................
none the less................. i still changed up to the newer, safer, better tested Medium Chain Triglyceride carbon 8 chain vape BHO / shatter liquidizer oil................it's a lot purer............ i dont add to my vape oil, any add in terpen constituents to my oil............. as the NCT C8 oil, has low aroma and taste value is near inert, you can get the plants terpen value on the tongue much better i find.................. replicant blade runner turp, would mask the real flavanoids in the BHO...........................
hope that is of help............... and if it can be improved, or im out of date a bit with new kit................. hit me back in.................... i use the o2vape pen & 1ml cartridge folding pen type..............................best to all nicotine quitters ! i was in 19mnths ago now............... a whole different, louder, tastier, bright, happier, anxiety free, painless !! world my freinds.............. when you quit the shit... and get the shatter on the go as a nicotine smoking "Cessation sedation"..................ALR
