    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Yes, it made it almost fool proof, no need to do alot of guessing. And especially if you don't have full control of your environment. I still have some jarred up, it stays fresh at room temp around 68. Sorry, I am just seeing this. Cure went great! I still have some left jarred up and it is...

    I am not sure, but as mentioned earlier, If you don't already own the ac infinity 69 pro, you can opt for the 79 pro which has two controller outlets built in. So you would not need the uic adapter. And its a little cheaper also. Here is the webpage that should help with your question...

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Thats the ticket. Make sure you calibrate your temp/humid probe to your koolatron temp. Once you get going be great if you post your min/max data screenshots so we can see if it is consistent like mine was. I also used two different hygrometers to verify humidity calibration for the ac infinity.

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    No irritation, don't know why you felt that way. Answered your questions best I could. But did not want the thread to go away from its intended purpose. There are plenty other threads that discuss traditional curing and drying. The very first comments on page one clearly states what this threads...

    Drying question

    In my opinion, that should be good. Anywhere between 8 and 12 percent(8 to 10 if you are a joint smoker 10 to 12 if you vape). But when I check with meter I always try to get the highest reading, and go by that. In other words both probes in and manipulate to you get the highest reading. Here is...

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    I am not sure what your goal is but If you have had good luck with traditional drying and curing, and not planning on using a wine cooler, why are you changing your method? I read thru your plan of action, and I was not sure what you are trying to accomplish. But I will only tell you what I...

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Good Luck! But just an f.y.i. and you may already know this, but the higher the vpd the more moisture is pulled out the plant, the lower the vpd the least amount of moisture is pulled out the plant(in the same given time period) in drying.

    Here are some tools I use to calculate for my environment. https://www.dimluxlighting.com/knowledge/vapor-pressure-deficit-vpd-calculator/ http://www.dpcalc.org/

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Yes for the most part, I do not intentionally open the door to exchange air. But the door gets opened to check for moisture level activity with the moisture meter, and for general observation. And I did flip the trays from front to back to insure more balanced drying once during the 9 day cycle...

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Thank you, just trying to get better like everyone else. 8 to 10 days based off of the studies done by the Dr. studying this subject of drying and curing for the industry. It's in one of the comments on page 1 I believe. Also is the chart that they created based off they're experiments. .8kpa...

    Set and forget. But there is nothing to stop you from sloping it down over a period of time. I just don't think it is necessary as it will cycle between .7 and .8kpa with the vpd set at .7kpa setting for cure. Temp should be always lower than 69 I prefer 64 to 66F.

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Just some information I found in reference to the $1600 machine we are trying to emulate. Seems vpd is indeed the tool that unit is controlling also, the same as we are doing here. https://terpenesandtesting.com/how-cool-is-your-cure/

    Drying and Curing using vpd

    Curing started last week and has been going good. I am running the Koolatron at .7kpa for vpd trigger for dehumidifier. And will report data 1 week at a time, starting on Friday.
