regaurding the decarboxylation, I first learned about this issue here - Got cancer? Decarboxylate your Cannabis | Patients for Medical Cannabis. As you probably know, Dennis Hill's success with the RSO is pretty well publicized and given his background in biochemistry, I followed his suggestion to decarb first (although he does say you can do it afterwards as well). When i first started to learn about it, I was very nervous that the decarbing wouldn't happen with the rice cooker and coffee warmer because as you can see from the chart on the link I've provided, it doesn't appear that either get hot enough to fully decarb. Also, read a lot of posts about the issue. Decided to decarb first per Dennis' suggestion on this link. Will decarb after going forward as that seems to be the better approach (I did watch your video...excellent information. Thanks).
