High quality cannabis extracts should be amberish and translucent. Fuck budder and wax, who the hell ever created the idea that whipping air into an extract is a good thing LOL
Yeah. About now I want to shoot whoever thought of whipping.

So i have made an interesting observation... My sap is buddering, naturally I guess.

I've had it stuffed in an air tight jar for months, before it was pure sap - clear very solid...

Now when I pull of a dab it's like a much more buddery substance... Looks really nice, even though the oil puddle is still sap ..the sap just budders when I make contact with it....like when pulling out a dab...


Anyone have any clues as to why that happened? What broke down that turned it to 'budder'?

That also happens to me after about 10-14 days, I dont use air tight containers though. Just some sap in a dish. It starts off as shatter, but after like 14 days its more of a buttery consistency when I dig in with the dabber.

Yeah i've had sap thats like pretty old and still sap... strange, this was a sativa .. tangerine dream took 110 days to finish flowering because the genetics sucked but the result was some super sativa oil..

yea man the shits curing..gets what i refer to as sugary,,,,nice texture...i think it takes ona much more piney hashy taste after curing a while...


yup def do know cons...
mmm id guess on the right is coldwater...left is ligther fluid...

pretty easy id say...it looks as if the stuff on the right is more runny, more globby, moister..lighter fluid if i had to guess (never used it) would act more like butane or alcohol, stripping the crystals etc off n making that lovely (j/k) chunk of what some shops call "black ice".....lol

but yea as far as i know i have never seen water make "glass" like product unless you made it then melted it down into a sappy oilly "glassy" type thing n froze it or let it dry...then MAYBE you could get waterhash to like like glass..

i dunno, maybe im way off base...i doubt it, but i dunno..

lol@ fuck wax and budder and whipping

you will see eventually danielson. the point of being miyagi is that you master de-waxing (aka "wax off") your BHO, to make a clean sap. this cleaned up extract is much more versatile and is perfect for ecigs, tinctures, edibles, topicals ect ect, clean medicine instead of a crude whipped lighter fluid extraction. budder is easier to dab, thats about it.

miyagi style is a pretty simply alcohol wash combined with a carbon filter. now go forth, and live up to your name. right now, all you do is "wax on" danielson, which I can do with ice water like a caveman. look up skunkpharm for info on this if you need a step by step. wax on (extraction), wax off (de-wax). learn this.

I acquired an Herbalaire a few weeks ago and I have about a quart of Already Been Vaped weed. I read a number of threads about what to do with ABV would like to get your on this thread. I really don't like using chemicals. The best scenario I can up with is a quick alcohol rinse. Using the same alcohol in several small batches. Then reducing and using the hash for an oil tincture.
I searched this thread and could not find and answer here and wanted to get opinions of those on this thread.

Thanks snew

Dont try to extract from vaped weed... It's worthless. Instead dump about 50 grams of the stuff in a crock pot along with some water and a stick of butter.. Turn your crock pot on low, come back in 8 hours and strain the material into a container.. Throw it in the fridge, wait 4 hours... And then remove the solid slab of canna butter from the container.. Dump the water. Make food.

There was a good discussion about various techniques for running ABV material over at FC here:
http://www.fuckcombustion.com/threads/abv-concentrate-experiment-what-method-is-best.4331/

If you don't want to read the entire thread, the method that seemed to be most favored involved. Putting the ABV in a pantyhose and soaking it in room temp water, replacing the water once a day for a week. After 1 week, spread the ABV out and let it dry completely. Take the dried ABV and freeze it for 3 hours. Take the frozen ABV, put it back in the pantyhose put it in a glass container, and cover it with 99% ISO, then freeze that for another 3-6 days. After 3-6 days, run the mixture through an unbleached coffee filter and then purge out the ISO.

I haven't personally tried this technique, but I'm planning to use it (or something very similar) in the near future.

EDIT: or what Verde suggested :)

Yeah I've read that thread. Heres what the the author suggests now:
"Hello! This is a slight amendment I have discovered since creating this thread that the best way to treat your abv is to do a butane extraction, and then dissolve that in ethanol (to extract the fats and waxes the butane extracted). filter and purge. this will leave you with oil that you will be just amazed with. the time and effort to make it is worth it! The taste and effect that this cbd/cbn rich concentrate has is very effective! especially when combined with something that has a standard, or regular thc dose to compliment it!"

I can believe it would extract whatever is left in the AVB but I'm not a fan of butane.

hmmmm.... I've tried spraying ABV, and didn't care for the results, if that the best we can do, then I'm with Verde... use it to cook with.

When the time comes, I'm still going to do an ISO wash on my AVB and see how that goes.
