    I do not want to sound presumptuous, but my proprietary machine is awesome. It is cheaper and more efficient than any other manufacturers' that I have come across. We can vary the size of the extraction vessel and pumps, but my current rig holds approximately 2-4 lbs. I can do ten runs a day by myself. It takes 1.5 minutes to get supercritical and start cranking. Its fully automated, except for filling the extraction vessel with herb, and connecting the co2 bottle. It will run any pressure between 1000psi and 5000psi. It is a laboratory grade piece of equipment. I sell, lease and rent the machines.

      Do you know of a do it yourself system more up to date? We stopped exploring passive extraction, once we understood its limitations, and so haven't kept track of bright new innovations that contradict that position. I've seen developments in small SCFI CO2 units using pumps that are of note, but are not DIY. GW

      I think that depends on "best for what"? There's the usual Apeks, Waters, etc machines but I recently read about new startup in California that seems to be doing innovative things with high-pressure machines (up to 5,000 psi): Applied Extracts (www.appliedextracts.com). Can't hurt to talk to them I guess.

      Does anyone have experience running an Infinity Supercritical extractor? There's one posted on eBay for $59k for a 10L. I'm shopping for used, or refurbished, co2 extractor(s) and this is one of the few machines I located thats not an Apeks of Eden. matt@duxlabs.com

    The information here gives me a good start for my research on this subject. What I am looking at isquality of product is being produced both as a consumer and a possible business model. In my opinion a good diagnosis starts with good product, that's how we get quality.

    Congratulations on your purchase! First, don't over tighten anything and don't pack the tube. Make sure what you run is 100% dry. I typically run one tube of high quality stuff without decarbing to get the terpenes while running at 1100-1500 psi 45c. Then 3-4 runs of decarbed material to get all your psychoactives. You're most potent extract are going to be after decarbing (baking at 250 degrees for 45min) and then running your ground up material in a full but not packed tube At 3200 psi and 60c or 3600psi and 55c you'll get almost pure THC-A jelly. Now, you'll want to winterize with alcohol to remove the wax and lipids. I've also heard from another Super C user that you can skip the winterization process by using a centrifuge.

      Since decarboxylated material shouldn't have any THC-a left over, wouldn't the jelly ostensibly be in the phenolic diterpenoid state? IE: THC delta 8 and 9.

      I've never tried to process fresh material SCFE CO2, so will have to leave that question open to readers who both have the equipment and that experience. You can extract fresh material using non polar solvents, by freezing it first and chilling the solvent to subzero temperatures. GW

      Skunk Pharm Research provides information as a public service, but sells no equipment. To your question, the lowest cost per gram to extract quality meds in volume that I've found, is closed loop butane extraction. Sales@pharmgold.com is the company now building the WolfWurx Mk IVC and VC designs by Graywolf. What we found with our passive SCFE CO2 extraction, is that it extracted over the whole heating/pressure curve, so we lacked precise pressure control. CO2 is a small molecule, so it requires a lot of flow to extract effectively. Without pumps to recycle existing CO2, more than our passive system volume. Our passive test sled lacked the ability to recover the different fractions on decompression, which active systems make effective use of. An experienced SCFE CO2 consultant, not employed by a specific equipment supplier, whom can elaborate on those issues chapter and verse is Paddy at: scfepatrick@gmail.com GW

        Mike, if you are still looking for SCFE Unit contact me. Our units outperform anything on market of similar size and most companies 20liter units at a fraction of the cost. Plus they produce a final product on par with hydrocarbon extraction in both potency and flavors. Without having to winterize.

    Is there any way I can get directions, parts list, and schematics to build a good reliable safe system because I really don't have $36,000 to spend on the systems that r for sale these days. I don't think I would spend it if I had it. But this method sounds promising. If any body can give me any info it would b greatly appreciated. Email me @ Jgard73@gmail.com

          Our PSICO2 extraction systems. They isolate the cannabinoids from the CO2 leaving impurities behind, so it's not like the other traditional Botanical oil extractors on the market. visit us @ paradigmsupercritical.com
