Hey, RIU'ers..

I am all read-up on proper harvest and curing and trust me, 98+% or more of my material is going thru just that.. so no lectures on my heresy, please.

But, for many reasons, most of us like to engage in a little early sampling. But, personally, I think the quick-dry methods I've seen of putting your bud in a microwave or oven set on low are bullshit -- I can just hear those trichs poppin' and splatterin' no matter how low the power is set.. So here's my clever idea:

1. Take a china or stoneware plate and put it in the microwave BY ITSELF..

2. Heat it for two minutes on HIGH

3. While the plate is heating, fold a paper towel evenly on itself twice -- gives you 4 layers of paper.

4. Pull the hot plate (careful! ) out, put your folded paper towel on it.

5. Put your bud under the top layer of paper and weight it down lightly with a nickel or such.. just to make contact.

6. Let it sit for 15 minutes or so.. check your bud. If you want a little more dryness, repeat the process.

The heat will come up from the plate; the paper will pull the moisture released.

Try it.. it makes for some sweet-ass smokin' bud, as long as the product quality is there to begin with.

And don't get carried away.. this no substitute for proper drying and curing.

Sounds awesome but you would have to put the plate in the oven, a microwave cannot heat up an empty plate.

I do the same thing with the paper towels except put it on a radiator. Works just as well.

How come i often burn my hands on a plate that has been in a microwave then when the food is no where near as hot????

I know exactly what you mean , Just lets say Microvave is a super fast way od dryin with some sacrifice in quality.

But your way makes sense,

thanks
