Hey all. I am making my third batch of wax. My first two came out awesome, I had two really nice honeycomb cookies, and it was straight fire, unmatched as of yet as far as quality. Right now I have a 45g patty I am working in the vacuum. I am on day 3 of messing with it. I keep the oil around 115F when purging. 3 gallon vac it pro, and a 2 stage 6cfm vacuum.
So I hit a real nice honeycomb cookie in a pretty short amount of time, I am kicking myself for not pulling it then. I wanted to purge for as long as possible to ensure quality. At night when I go to bed I turn off the heat, close the vacuum valve keeping the chamber under vacuum, and kill the pump.
When I went to bed I had a picture perfect honeycomb, but when I woke up the top was glazed and "wet" looking. It had transformed. I then worked it all day and could not get it to honeycomb and get the dry look. Right now it looks like a taffy or caramel.
The only thing I can think of is me storing it overnight under vacuum at room temp is what screwed it? My first two batched I did the same thing but they came out awesome.
Any advice or insight? Pretty irritated I really favor the honeycomb texture.
