Definitely wish we had more home “cartridge” makers as it were, but unfortunately the low price of budget carts, and the extremely high price of the equipment for full spectrum CO2 extraction to make the higher quality ones has left few people interested.
That being said, for those that are, I know that there are propylene glycol/vegetable glycerin mixes meant for this that you can dissolve a gram of shatter into. It’s that simple. No flower, no decarbing, just a $15-20 gram of budget shatter and the juice.
That seems much quicker and cheaper for practical purposes.
While getting Youtube certified in E-juice making I saw all the fancy equipment I can't afford and I saw several people telling me to buy the, easy pg/vg liquid. I think next time I'm going to not try and reinvent the wheel and just buy the premade shit.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about the mad scientist shit. But the fact of the matter is, depending on where you live, you can get a bottle of this stuff, add $15-20/grams of budget shatter to it, it will dissolve itself, and you’ll have a big bottle of end product that depending on how much you invest, should be better than what the budget cart companies are putting out, for no more than the price of maybe 2-3 store carts. And I’m talking enough to make like 10 “1g carts.”
