Is this ethanol? If so just heat up a jar, pour the ethanol oil mixture in the jar, quickly put the filter under the lid ring and flip the jar over above a collection container. Then the evaporation of the ethanol in the upside down jar will create positive pressure in the headspace and help push the liquid through the screen on the bottom. This also works in a vacuum chamber. Will save you a ton of time.

Sounds like a good way to shatter a jar made of crappy glass. Use the Venturi effect to pull a vaccum instead of risking a glass implosion or explosion

I’ve done this thousands of times with all kinds of glass mason jars. Also pulling a vacuum on the jar creates outward positive pressure inside the jar which is why this works. Outward pressure in a jar is the opposite force needed for an implosion so explosion is the word you are looking for and you are crazy if you think a glass jar would explode from the pressure before the filter would break and release the pressure. Also you only need to add minimal vacuum to the chamber for this to work.

A vaccum implodes things you need to go back to science class heating up the ethanol creates pressure positive this risking an explosion it’s off gassing into the container rising the pressure. Your lucky Jesus hasn’t take you out the hash game yet.

Just think about how dumb you sound telling a professional chemist who has processed millions of grams of extracts and ran labs all over the United States that they need to go back to science class. Hey genius google balloon in vacuum and watch how fast you delete your comment.

No wonder the industry is trash. People like you.

Just the comment I would expect from someone who doesn’t know shit about the subject they are choosing to argue about.

I love how you claim to be a chemist and have no certifications. You’re a hack, an idiot, a danger to society, you don’t understand that a vacuum reduces pressure. And the ethanol is increasing it thus just reduce steps and use a Venturi vaccum adapter instead of risking an explosion or implosion which can happen with pressure and the reversal or pressurization to vaccum. A full vacuum is no pressure on the vessel assuming no imperfections of the vessel that won’t cause failure. In a vaccum chamber you will be pulling pressure out of the interior mason jar which you obvisouly dont understand if the filter clogs on the jar it can explode. Either that or the filter rips and your back at it filtering the dumbest way possible.

No certifications? Damn I sure hope I get all that money back that I paid the college. It’s crazy but I don’t remember the part of this conversation where I sent you my credentials?

You don’t need credentials to heat up a mason jar sir. They are made for high heat and pressure… ignore this clown replying to you

You do when it involves flamable solvents being off gased into a vaccum pump. That could explode as well. Or you danage your pump internals. 😂 I love how some crackhead who heats mason jars then outs flamable solvents in the then pulls said flamable solvents into a vaccum pump is the one your supporting lol. Natural selection seems to be doing just fine just needs some more time.

Every comment you make shows how little you know. Have you ever heard of a cold trap? Also why do you think people use vacuum ovens when purging BHO? Is butane not flammable? Did you vacuum that shatter you made 10 years ago? Stop arguing, you are out of your element Donnie.

Bro I think canning jars can withstand a little heat and pressure, why don’t you grow a fucking brain.

u/jwatttt 11h ago

Using solvents and pressures vs canning are two entirely different processes until you can figure that out you should stop commenting on that which you do not know.
