Finally got my oil done tonight. Man does that distiller work great. I am glad I got it. Wife said it was an excellent buy too. I got 8+ ml from 61 gms. It looks great. First time making my oil worked perfectly. Wife had everything under control. Ordered me around like I worked for her. Used 750 ml Everclear and 350ml Spyritus. Reclaimed total 800ml. Filtered correctly this time. No popping. No errors. Can't wait for it to cool and to tack half a rice grain. Been so long.
Thanks to everyone for the distiller information. In my opinion the Megahome distiller works great. get one with 540 watt rating. If you are making oil you might want to try a low wattage water distiller. Low wattage is important. Easy to burn oil. Saw a lot of different ones when I was shopping around that were 1000 watts. That might be good for water but not so much for oil.
That's a really good result!
I made my wife some Bubba Kush oil last week. I used about the same amount of material and got about the same amount of oil, but I think you beat me on the recovery.
I'm always worried about cooking it down too far in the distiller, so I probably stop that step too early.
I'll second the advice about getting the low Watt model. I got mine second hand, so had no real choice. If buying new, get one that says it's for alcohol if you have a choice. I opened mine up to see if I could make it run a little cooler, but there are really no parts in there. The heating is all done by this big element on the bottom. Anyway, I experimented and couldn't get it to perform any better, so I just put it back together. It works fine, but I would like to have had one with a lower wattage heater inside.
