Have you ran the distillation without the decarb step in between? Some THCa will decarb in the short path, but it will be a good A/B test to see whether the heat treatment prior to distillation is your culprit
We have the heat jacket at 170 and the condenser at 130 which has yielded nice results before, but I will definitely try that. Any suggestions as to temp range?
Decarb in your rotovap under vac. Bubbling stops and your done, maybe let your terps fo a bit longer to be sure. Add a charcoal filtration step and extract at a minimum -20c. What are your CDU parameters?

I'll definitely give that a shot, thank you!
What vacuum levels are you achieving? Deeper vacuum leads to more fine separations.
Lights run we get 0.1t and Polish we get 0.001t I'll definitely try the sampling curve, thank you for that!!

I have not! Good idea, I'll give that a shot.
Decrease the temp gap between your main body and your internal condenser

That's really really high for internal from my experience. Good chance your dark color is from oxidization
Good point! I'm following SOPs from other facilities, but I will try a lower internal temp
Are you decarbing under vac? This will help the oxidation process. In my experience, distillate that is 98%+ oxidizes at a much higher rate, too.
For example, we’ll pull clear distillate, and overnight the thin top layer is amber, while the rest is clear.

Good, uncut distillate is fire as fuck so what’s your point lol
