Price varies by Size.

A pressure-rated 304 stainless steel vessel for controlled crystallization of live resin, replacing glass jars with a 100 psi MAWP assembly. Both models ship with an ASME 100 psi relief valve, a glycerin-filled -30 to 150 psi compound gauge and a welded 8″ x 2″ splatter platter for harvesting. The Standard (DM8) holds 1500-1750 mL optimally, 2000 mL maximum, with dual 1.5″ sight glasses; the Large (DM8-L) holds 3000-3700 mL optimally, 4900 mL maximum, and adds a 2″ sight-glass spool section. Rated -30°F to 250°F.

Description

The 8" Diamond Miner (models DM8 & DM8-L) is a pressure-rated 304 stainless steel vessel engineered for controlled crystallization of live resin into terpene-rich sauce and THCa “diamonds.” Built for safety and repeatability, it replaces fragile jars with a robust, process-ready system.
Each premium lid is nitrogen-tested for leaks and arrives pre-assembled with an ASME 100 PSI PRV and a glycerin-filled compound gauge for fast pressure readout. The welded 8" × 2" splatter platter makes post-crystallization harvesting clean and efficient.
Choose the standard DM8 with dual sight glasses for process monitoring, or step up to the DM8-L with an added 2" sight-glass section for expanded visibility during nucleation and growth.

Operate within rated limits (100 PSI MAWP, −30°F to 250°F) and follow SOPs. Depressurize fully before disassembly. For extraction use by trained personnel only. Comply with all local codes and safety standards.
304 Stainless Steel 100 PSI MAWP ASME 100 PSI PRV Glycerin Compound Gauge
Safer crystallization: Pressure-rated 304SS vessel with PRV reduces risk versus glass jars.
Clear visibility: Dual sight glasses (DM8) or extended viewing section (DM8-L).
Easy harvest: Welded 8" × 2" splatter platter simplifies diamond removal.
Why this 8" Diamond Miner?

Purpose-built for live resin — designed for controlled THCa crystallization under temperature/pressure.
Leak-checked & ready — premium lid arrives nitrogen-tested for a worry-free start.
Safety hardware included — ASME 100 PSI PRV plus glycerin-filled compound gauge.
Tool-less harvest — remove the 8" × 2" splatter platter to access finished diamonds with ease.
Flexible visibility — DM8 has dual sight glasses; DM8-L adds a 2" sight-glass section for an even better view.

FAQ

What is the 8" Diamond Miner used for?

The 8" Diamond Miner – 304SS, 100 PSI MAWP, Sight-Glass Lid is designed for crystallizing THCa “diamonds” in live resin sauce under controlled temperature and pressure.
What’s the difference between DM8 and DM8-L?

8" Diamond Miner (DM8) includes dual 1.5" sight glasses. 8" Diamond Miner (DM8-L) adds a 2" sight-glass spool section for expanded visibility during nucleation and growth.
What are the capacities?

DM8: optimal 1500–1750 mL (max 2000 mL). DM8-L: optimal 3000–3700 mL (max 4900 mL).
What are the pressure and temperature ratings?

The 8" Diamond Miner – 304SS, 100 PSI MAWP operates up to 100 PSI with a temperature range of −30°F to 250°F. An ASME 100 PSI PRV and a glycerin compound gauge are included.
How do I harvest the diamonds?

Depressurize fully, then remove the welded 8" × 2" splatter platter to access and collect crystals from the sauce with minimal mess.

Frequently asked questions

What are the capacities of the two sizes?+

DM8 (Standard): optimal 1500-1750 mL, maximum 2000 mL. DM8-L (Large): optimal 3000-3700 mL, maximum 4900 mL.

What are the pressure and temperature ratings?+

100 psi maximum allowable working pressure, over a temperature range of -30°F to 250°F. An ASME 100 psi pressure relief valve on a 1/4" MNPT port and a glycerin-filled -30 to 150 psi compound gauge are fitted as standard. Depressurize fully before disassembly.

What is the difference between the Standard and Large models?+

Beyond capacity, the Large adds a spool with a sight-glass section and two 2" sight glasses with matching high-pressure tri-clamps, giving a longer viewing window through nucleation and crystal growth. The Standard has two 1.5" sight glasses only.

What material is it and what are the top connections?+

304 stainless steel, 8" tri-clamp body. The flat lid carries three 1/2" Superlok compression ports and two 1.5" tri-clamp ports. Each lid is pressure tested and nitrogen leak-checked before shipping.

What is included?+

Flat lid with the connections above; welded 8" x 2" splatter platter base spool; 8" high-pressure tri-clamp and Buna-N gasket; two 1.5" tri-clamps and two 1.5" sight glasses; a Superlok 1/2"-to-1/4" T-port reducer, 1/4" tube-to-MJIC fitting and 1/4" compression ball valve; the compound gauge; and the ASME relief valve. The Large adds the sight-glass spool, two 2" sight glasses and two 2" tri-clamps.

How is the finished product harvested?+

Depressurize the vessel fully, then remove the welded 8" x 2" splatter platter to reach the crystallized material. The platter is why the vessel harvests more cleanly than a jar.
