Alright gonna be postin quite a few photos.

teflon don tek haha





Side purge til i get the vac oven. Cant wait to just lay the sheet flat and get a smaller muffin.




Worked pretty well but we couldnt put it on heat so we could only get so far.





After the main muffin dropped i was able to toss it in the chamber the normal way without worrying about it getting out of control.





All folded up after about 12 hours purging. Really came off the teflon well this time. Gotta make sure to fold before 24+ hours depending on strain or itll be too stable to easily get it to stick to itself. Depending on strain of course.
Now inspecting for hairs/foreign material. Gotta get one of those beard nets for myself. Luckily most of what i make goes to me so while i keep it clean im much more relaxed about a tiny flake of trim in a corner or some slight buddering or a hair laying on the surface that i can pick off. I try for shatter but like all forms as long as clean and well purged.





And i cant seem to find any of the finished slab pictures. Gotta check my hd and shit. Always puttin shit into random folders.

Forgot to post this one! Made a shelf in my chamber to drop my temps a bit since my nuwave2 only goes down to 100

3gal chamber straight on nuwave2: 95-100F
3gal chamber in 5gal pot on nuwave 2: 90-95F
3gal chamber in 5gal pot on nuwave2: 85-90F






Made out of some scrap stainless a friend had lyin around from a job. Its whats used to line the walls of an OR so probably some 304 or 316. Dont quote me though. Really helps the low temps stay low and makes the oils surface more even instead of the imprinted bottom of the vac chamber.

Yes teflon is non reactive with damn near everything out there. Theres a few chemicals that react but i cant name them off the top of my head. But yeah its good to blast on. I got mine from oil slick but there are places on ebay that sell it as well in thicker sheets and bigger rolls for cheaper since all oilslick did was take a 100 foot roll (probably bigger) and cut it into 20 5 foot rolls and upcharge for their name on it. Honestly they probably just have it rolled but you get what im sayin.

Id like to try out some thicker stuff bbecause when folding and flattening you can tear it. Not super easy but just some stuff like 25% thicker would feel a ton better and probably be a little easier to mold into the dish.

Only downside is the evap time takes a significant amount longer since teflons a pretty good insulator. But its worth it. Just vac for 12 hours, fold into a square, vac for another 12 hours til it stops reacting (because for some reason it stops reacting on teflon really quick) then flip to parchment and continue your normal purge. All this depends on strain and stability and amount. If using a little you coould probably do a few hours before folding and flipping to parchment. but its recommended you do because like i said for some reason it stops reacting on the teflon after like 12 hours.
