Making hash, Oil, Tincture, THC Pills and Butter

hes taking about the leftover contaminants.

and i imagine he means run a little water over the almost finished product to get rid of any residue and wait for the water to dry. when nearly dry or well oil like again no water beads start mixing.

i dunno thats just plan one, ill have more soon like i said and report back. tbth im not to fussed about any butane contaminants personally... ive seen far wose things in my life lol.

kool man, yeah i thought thats what he meant but surely a better way to get all the butane out and any contaminents would be to lightly re cook the bho!?

id do that to get the last of the water out and start mixing the budder probably.

umm re cook the bho???
i dont think heating can get all of them out afteral they didnt evaporate before... morso isnt that just like cleaning water for drinking wouldn you say. plus if you overheat youll risk degrading. its why i dont set my alcohol on fire to evaporate it as ive seen done with the alcohol method.

once accidentally when i was a kid i set it on fire lol.

hmm dunno if it would get all the contaminants out.

cleaning water for drinking is done with uv light over here now. not sure what you mean bro by isnt that like cleaning the water!?

i dunno im still confused as to why youd put water anywhere near it other than spraying the bho oil directly into water which ive done to see if it was easier to get out the tray ( it isnt, much )

lol setting your green dragon ablaze!

i was at first but i my idea its just a quick soft rinse and evaporate then mix. i dont see much point either though a few extra contaminants should leave making a slightly better product if all goes well that is.

like i said it wouldnt phaze me usually but yeah what the hell. ima try it on a reall small batch soon and see probably.

to make the oil easier to access try hating the tray a little bro. works well for me.

when i meant water i meant when your out the bush and want clean water you generally heat it up to make sure u dont get sick if your dodgy on drinking it lol.

ah got ya man kool.

yeah i generally sit my pyrex in a hot water bath when im extracting.

im still chasing trying to make the stuff that looks like hard boiled sweets you know its like an amber piece of clear resin. not sure where im falling down with the tech tho

look like sweets when its dry??

yeah like http://img3.imageshack.us/i/yummyoil.jpg/

like tree sap

hey howard i was recently pondering the same thing,


like what if you made a heated alcohol tinciture but then u let all the alcohol evaperate so what your left with is a some super potent edible mash


then I wanted to take this super potent mash and maybe compress it in some sort of pill press, making super duper potent pills you can swallow


what do you guys think, can you let the alcohol evaporte after you make the alc tinc?

Fantastic idea! =)

is it safe to make like a honey bee extractor from pill bottles?

will butane deteriorate this plastic?

umm should be.

im ging to be doing a small batch with a little plastic alcohol bottle. came free with my mckenna .

just to test whether water helps too much.

i reckon you should be fine though .... ive used a pill bottle before though as said before there normally not big enough... ill also say i have yet to see butane react with anything ive used. plastic and rubber are generaly pretty resiliant to a lot of things but something as simple as glue can react so i see where your comming from.

SWEET BRO LOL....peace out Headband707

i got a pollen press with my herborizer bubblebags this makes heating in the oven or some place hot a possibility .

if you evaporate the tincture youl get left with oil. and yes just heat it up. i do it on pyrex over a flame or something hot. and generally my ccaps which i dry with good dry resins in tem are still good for smoking or eating. also makes scooping it up a lot easier.

tincture is basically none evaporated hash oil. you wont be left with a mash at the end (or do you for some reason have lots of contaminants in your tincture??) you will be left with hash oil and some water which wont mix with the oil, once that evaporates youll have oil, let it dry out andheay up andscrape off ..

does that help bro..

thats my take on the situation andall i have to offer its bed time my meds have kicked in and yeah. medubluh muhublah lmfao.

on the topic of extraction using rubbing alcohol, DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT soak for 2 weeks it destroys everything you are trying to get all you end up with is a black oil, a quick wash of the plant matter (like 35-45 seconds) fast shake will give you a nice amber glass that is pure thc. do several washes extending the time a minute per wash and you will get several diff levels of hash each a diff color the more amber the more pure black is full of chlorophyll and other crap like your nutes you used in the grow. just my 2 cents and i get some amazing hash with the wash method however i recently bought bubble bags and they are pretty damn useful. work extremely well and nice and clean and easy.

So you just was say a half O in a cup of 90% alcohol, shake rapidly in a cup for less then a minute, and then what? Do you pour out the liquid and let the alcohol evaporate off, then smoke the remains? I have always heard it leaves an alcohol taste, do u agree?

the method he was refering to is making honey oil from alcohol.... completely the same but different to what i was explaning and i think it was in the videos (though a lot have changed i may make a new thread soon as editings a bitch to get accomplished)..

anyhoo im after everything where as hes only after the outer resin glands containing thc mainly if i wanted the honey oil or shards i would make honey oi and use butane or alcohol in the method hes described though id prolly use butane much faster and i get a really nice outcome, though alcohol in a quik swirl works fine too..This wasnt what i wwas describing.... i was describing what most people recognise as black oil...... it also deoes not i repeat does not kill every thing we were after it actualy givres us a chance to extract as many of the cannabinols as we can but yes as you said it gives you that black mess, this black mess is mainly caused because of the chlorophyll we carry over .. thc is just one component of the cannabis plant though yes its my favourite too though if im going to use alcohol i want all the cannabinols i can for numerous reasons... btw tell rick simpson black oils bad or usless.

This wasnt what i was describing.... i was describing what most people recognise as black oil and its more commonly done or turns out this way......

anyhoo to gumball
depending on ratios fuck all agitation should be required. in fact as little as possible the better the matter is suspended in a solvent and all we want is the outer resin glands when trying for this. then it would also benefit from a filter before evaporation as everything does really lol. i also use metho if the ethanol isnt available though the water is a pissoff takes longer to evaporate. this is why when i am after honey oil i use butane (venti is a good clean brand) its actually a lot faster... when im done i get really nice results.

but yeah when doing the black oil method ull see what i mean. btw chlorophyl is good for u lol.. dont know about smoked though were smoking it anyways so yeah fuck it.....

whts more i i actually take somewhat of some pride in my resin extracting abilities. if u give that black oil a shot ull see its benefits too though i have to agree i onluy like the black stuff every now and then its normally honey oil (well generally amber tree sap hard crystal like shit that melts when its warmed lol). it all comes down to what ur after and yeah there both two different things so u cant really compare. tho if i use alcohol i generally just make the black shit otherwise if just go through the effort of water hash which is my favourite or the amber shit which can be made at excellent quality and fast.

anyhoo enough shit dribbling lol. sorry folks im pretty blitzed lol.
much respect

bumping back up.. some good info here for the members

old thread i know just trying to find some peoples experiences using pill bottles for bho tubes as pill bottles are made from #5 plastic which apperntly has a very poor resistance to paraffinic hydrocarbons which butane falls under. ive recently dont a run using an orange pill bottle and found my oil came out more amber/orangish and has a funny tase
