Hello

Made my first hash oil yesterday w/ quick wash ISO, it's very slimy,gooey, it's not Solid.
Where should I store it?
Should i heat it till it become Solid? if so, whould it change something in the effect? and how to?

thx!

Might you share more of your process?

Gooey can be decarboxylation or retained solvent, and sometimes a contaminant.

Just a bad quality brick weed.


I froze it and alcohol 93%, then put the alchool on weed, for 1min shaking, filtered with Coffe paper, and put on oven 210ºF till alcohol evaporate. Maybe the gooey is because of not using 100% alcohol and 93%, there is some water on it i think

Hey mokuro most likely this is the reason.. what was your drying method to remove the ISO?

Get a blow dryer out and hit it from about 4-8inches away for a bit.. see if it becomes more sticky

If you stick it in the freezer for a bit, the water and oil should separate enough to pour and wick most of it off. If you then heat it to 115F and pull a -29.9" vacuum on it, the balance of the water will be removed. You can also get rid of some of it with a blow dryer, as suggested by G.

How are you planning to consume it?

As you used a hot (210F) evaporation technique, I suspect that you also have at least partially decarboxylated the oil, which lowers the viscosity.

It is a bit viscosity, more than liquid, i think gooey is the wrong world maybe, sry for my english ,its like this:

maybe more solid than this, so I think the Concistency is OK, I just dont know if I should heat it till it become a solid ball or keep it this way

I plan to consume it on glass pipe or rolled cigarettes.
Should i keep this consistency or heat it till solid? and how to store it? maybe those 1dram glass vials?

Hey gioua!
i'll try the blow dryer.

I dont get your question about "why drying to remove ISO", I just removed the solvent (ISO)

I heated on Oven at 210ºF (90ºC) for around 2-3hours, till all the alcohol evaporate.

Is there difference on final product if I just let the alcohol evaporate by itself or heat it to be faster?

btw, it's my english x]

Btw guys, I still dont get it...

Should i keep it Oily or turn it on Solid ball?
Does it change the high effect or something, or it's just personal choice on how to use and storage?

I have used the oily stuff before...it happens... I would store mine in a glass dish or shot glass type glass....

If I had the oily stuff I usually dab a bit on some bud that is in a pipe or bong..

If free of solvent, the oily stuff works fine for orals, topicals, and for dabbing. We use a .045 17-4 PH stainless weld wire to dip in it and transfer it to a hot nail or skillet, or use the oil with an oilwell and wand, which doesn't care.
