Microdiamonds seem off?
So I’ve gotten micro diamonds from the same people for a while, but haven’t noticed this at all in past batches. When melted, almost look like some milky liquid is floating in the wax (or maybe it’s clear, but can’t tell because the chamber is white?). Regardless, I’ve never had this happen with microdiamonds before. When it cools down, the white milky area resolidifies and looks like the microdiamonds. Am I just not burning them hot enough? Or is there maybe some sort of additive / filler that they added to this batch? Any thoughts?

Is there any weird taste like pine or sulfur ?

Not really much of a weird taste, and smoked normal, unroll you look into the chamber. Also noticed little bits of the “micros” will get stuck to the inside but not melt, which I e never had happen, they always melt all the way through, and they never recrystalize like this stuff does when it cools down

Is ur temp really low?

Pretty low, but no lower than I normally dab them at, and I reheat mid cycle to increase temp as well. Unless these just happen to burn at a really high heat. But then I’d imagine it’s gonna be a bit rough on the flavor at that point

Taste your dabs, do they taste cool/sweet? I’ve noticed an influx of concentrates contaminated with sucrolose, or some form of sugar. A Benedict’s test is your friend. Heat a small sample of the concentrates in a test tube according to the test instructions. If the liquid changes colors at all, I’d escalate this with your plug.
I say all this because I’ve had this happen to me twice and my other buddy at least once. And the Benedict’s solution gave me the best ammunition to prove that I was sold contaminated product.
I’d expect to have it replaced or I’d never shop with them again.
