does anyone know about sticking your piece as well as scraps of tinfoil, roachclips, other things with smokey resin, etc. in the jar with the alcohol and extracting that as well?
well im gonna go for it! its gonna be a blend of smoke resin, male plants, and regular mids all in the jar. a hash salad.
I did 3 batchs of iso hash this weekend. I grew a couple of plants outdoors last year, so I had a pile of trimmings from the 15 oz that those two plants produced. They were a strain that has been developed locally for pain control. 1st I stuffed a 1 qt glass jar with trim...then added 2 pints of iso alcohol to the jar...shook the jar madly for about 1 minute...poured the iso from the jar, through a paper coffee filter inserted into a gold permanent coffee filter...into a large glass baking pan...took the pan to the garage on a heating pad turned on high...had a fan blowing across the pan to evaporate the iso quicker...HAD THE GARAGE DOOR OPEN TO GET RID OF THE D A N G E R O U S FUMES...about three hours later the liquid was gone...scraped up the remainer with a razor blade and got a sticky ball of about 1 1/2 grams of goooeeey hash. It smokes up nice and bubbly. Use caution when doing this folks, cause it is dangerous to work with iso...VERY FLAMMABLE!!! Peace...j.b.
Is it an absolute must to heat the ISO to evaporate it? Would you get similar results just waiting for it to evaporate naturally? -Mike
"scraped up the remainer with a razor blade and got a sticky ball of about 1 1/2 grams of goooeeey hash" Goooeeey is why I like BHO method better, there is no GOOOEEEY!
BHO is the best thing in the world, I do agree. man do you think this work well...I always do 1 ounce at a time for bho. If I use say 20 grams of trim and mix it with 8 grams of dry sifted kif? Have you ever tried to potentiate your bho weed like that?
What other materials of plates are acceptable for evaporating this shite on? All I've heard is to use glass, but I don't think there are any glass plates in my apt. Would a plastic plate or ceramic work? -Mike
hehe yeah the fun is that you can make it as strong as you want. it all matters on the time the weed is in contact with the alcohol
would you dip a cig or loint in nail polish remover and then smoke it after it dried? I would stick will the acetone.
When using any solvent method DRY and crumbly are the key words, then make it powder in a coffee grinder, extract, let evap, and prepare for take off AAA! The darker the extract the unwanted stuff there is in the mix, so how to get less yuck stuff? whether using BHO or ISO solvent should start dripping within 15 - 30 seconds, more and one starts getting chloraphyl and other unwanted oils. So adjust size of extraction container or amount of material so that it starts dripping sooner than later, we're looking for amber here not green or black
yeah I know the quicker solven passes through the better. im guessin if I add like 50% of kif to the pot to be extracted, it will give white bho lol...or maybe just more bho Have done it once, the white bho, but it was really mad weed...
I am sorry folks, but you people are a bunch of idiots if you use some of the methods talked about in this thread. Let me correct just a few of the more dangerous and obviously wrong idea's expressed here. 1. People, Isopropanol is not a good solvent. Isopropyl has a chemical added to it to make it dangerous to drink and some of it stays in the oil, noway to get rid of it all. True, small amount probably is not going to hurt you, but why use it at all? Why not use a pure form of alcohol? 2. Alcohol does not burn, the vapors do. If you heat it, it can not only vaporize and burn, it can explode. 3. Everclear IS much better to use then isopropyl alcohol. They (alcohols) are all made from sugars. It depends on where you get your sugar. Some get it from fruit, grain, potatoes and some get it from wood or fibrous materials. It is all sugar in different forms. Wood alcohol is very dangerous and is sometimes used in isopropyl. By the way, rubbing alcohol is just another name for isopropyl. Everclear leaves no harmful chemicals or sugars behind. 4. There are other chemicals out there that actually will leach out the THC and leave the other crap behind. I am not going to tell them to you because I think you people are a bunch of kids that should not be experimenting with any of this stuff. You are going to die and probably burn down your house, family, and the neighborhood. You do not know or have much more then a slight idea of what you are doing. A little knowledge can be a very dangerous thing. Stick to smoking pot, make hash with ice and water. If you want oil for some reason, just add a couple of drops of vodka or everclear to the trics you get and/or wash out the resulting wax or strain it through a coffee filter. What is left after it evaps is oil. 5. No, you do not get a clear oil from anything you do. THC is an oil. It can not be crystallized or made clear. Cannabinoids are water soluble, can be crystallized, and can be made clear, but that is totally different then THC. 6. Adding weed or THC to tobacco is a European thing. Tobacco will work with the pot or THC and can increase the high one gets depending on the strain of weed you use. It can also be used to make wet pot burn. I personally do not use tobacco with my weed or ice hash. 7. ISO hash is not hash that was made with isopropyl alcohol. It was hash made by the Isomiser hash oil machine that was sold 20-30 years ago. The hash it made was not worth smoking and the oil it made was worthless as well, even if you used good weed. It cooked all the good stuff out, like a vaporizer does. Claims that canabanoids can be changed to ones that make you high when you cooked your plant material in the isomiser with no oxygen. This is also a farce. Once good thing the isomiser did do was it did make a darn nice small still and you could make some nice brandies in it.
Hey Grouchy old man, why did you sign in if all you wish to do is flame?>\ Threads like this are created to help, not vent! I noticed you didn't mention BHO extraction! Although in the years since I advocated BHO I have reconcidered and decided that Naturalhi is better than any of the upper petrolium or vegetable distilates!>)
