yerrrrppp..
with the hand pump, pump it as much as you can! set the chamber in a warm environment 90F ish, and let it ride out. (DONT PLACE IN HEAT ABOVE 105f)
i would re pump the chamber daily just to make sure you are at full pump.
for each gram, id say about 3-5 days of purging, good luck! thats all i can give you based on what i have seen

First, you must become one with the extract, be, and experience the extract.
Once you've done that...travel down inside the honeycomb hide-out, and ask the honey bee how he built the comb...lol
I'm just fuckin with ya...lol
As Many have said already, patience, patience...do not rush things..
For honeycomb depending on the strain and 1.3 million other variables, low temps are key..I go for 100-105ish
This took 24 hours to comb

So for those of you that do 100-105* is that in a vac chamber?
my 2 stage 6 cfm 10 micron cps vac pump has been running for 24hrs right now, and is at about 120*,, very little reaction is taking place..
but before i got a legit setup, i would just spray onto pyrex and use heat and it would be crumbly in about 5 hrs.

yes. thats IN the chamber... the exact temp of the oil/chamber.. no other way to do it. anything else is inaccurate: I can start at 85F and by the time the vacuum pulls a full vacuum it goes up 5 or 6F in that few seconds JUST from the vacuum. its an instant and very accurate way to tell the temp. no pointing a temp gun at the chamber or griddle and doing some unreliable math to get an approx temp of the oil.
my stuff is a handtouchable paste right now after 24hrs at 120*
im running another batch now, 150grams.
im gonna purge intial liquid tane at 110*, then let sit at 105* for an hour or two,
scrape, make oil muffin,, melt down, and revac...
wish me luck
Also vacpurge what is that temp device ur using sold as?

Well, I don't think you're doing anything wrong my friend.
But, that being said...
I don't chop or grind my bud, usually break down by gloved hand into pieces the size of a marble.
I've tinkered with packing the tube..you want that shit packed nice and tight, but not too much, very fine line.
I stick to 320 ml of tane per oz.
*Thin film is super super critical *
If I'm not able to fit my dish into my chamber, I scrape and sandwich the oil in between parchment, and use a rolling pin to really flatten out the oleoresin.
Best thing I've done so far, is finding a suitable dish that will fit inside your chamber.
Reduces agitation, and nucleation points.

I get most of my stuff to dry out and crumble after a full day under max vac with my hand vac and around 95F. I usually flatten small quantities like 2-3 grams out between parchment paper with a rolling pin and then vac it. Glad I finally have a chamber and pump just have to extract more before I can use it!

so when you guys flatten out your oil to a thin layer with a rolling pan... and then it waxes... arent you just getting such a thin layer of shit on the paper thats so thin its hard to deal with and handle? seems that if it were that thin it would just dry up in a bunch of crumbs, not a nice thick wax chunk
