vhGhost said:This is the way i make oil ... it is a very quick rinse method, with 3 different rinses.
First i prepare the popcorn bud by busting it up, but not to a powder.
Busted up and ready for the freezer
I don't find that it takes to long in the freezer if its spread out really well, Plus the iso also gets the freezer treatment, i will only use about 750ml of iso this run.
These are my basic ingredients
2L pop bottle cut down - this way i can move the bud around easier and not have to mess with it
The first 2 rinses should only take as long as it takes to drain through. About 250ml per dish.
First rinse
2nd rinse
3rd rinse is a bit different, by now the bud has been in contact with the iso for no more than 1 min(2dishes). So what i do is take the bud out of the filter and into a masson jar filled with 250ml of iso. Then i shake the jar like crazy for about 30-60sec, and drain through the coffey filter for the 3rd rinse.
I use a rice cooker and it holds my pie plates perfect. And i DO IT OUTSIDE

Rinse 1 finished - i left it just a tiny bit oily unlike the 2nd rinse
Rinse 2 finished - This turned into chrystal, scraping this was interesting( my thumb was covered in sparkly goodness
Rinse 3 finished - well this 1 i kept oily so that i can store it in a vile.
And the finished product. Vile 3rd rinse, bottum 2nd rinse, top 1st rinse.
I like doing it like this, and in the future i might add another 250ml of iso and another pie plate, just to see how much more is wasted.
I hope you all enjoyed my way of making oil( well not really my way ) just my experience.
how did u turn it into cystal i always end up with gooy shit crystall would help me out alot
you usually get the hard stuff when you heat the oil after all of the solvent has evaporated.
like if you evaporated most of your IPA in a pyrex dish, and then put the dish on a hot plate, boiling pot of water, etc and kind of stir the oil around for a while
be careful though. once it cools, it will shatter when you scrape it

Yeah! (IPA= IsoPropyl Alcohol)
organic chemists and biochemists/molecular biologists use acronyms all daayy.
one I like, but dont use often: DEAD. DAILY used: fMOC, tBOC, TFA, TEA, DIPEA, DMAP, LAH, DIBAL, DBU, TMS, TES, Bn, BOC2O, Ac2O (cant get that without some fat DEA permits), and more a billion more, with the common ones depending on the type of chemistry: natural product synthesis, organometallic, organocatalyst, peptide, polymer, and even food chemistry and natural product (which is where you go and find sea sponges, bark, fungus and shit, grind it up, extract it, run it through a preparative HPLC, and test the compounds for medical properties)

IHO - Isopropyl Hash Oil
BHO - Butane Hash Oil
That's how I refer to them
When I make IHO I get a lot more end product than when I have used Butane. Butane gives you a bit more potent product but isopropyl gives me a bigger yield, easier to make, and extracts more scent and flavor. Butane hash always seems to taste the same to me and is messier and requires more expensive materials. Not to mention the impurities in the butane being used even if it is well filtered. BHO makes me cough a lot more too. Not sure why.
It's all about personal taste and preference. I smoke em both but prefer IHO for the stated reasons.
Lately I've been mixing half kiff and half finished IHO together to make little combo hash balls. Good times!

seems insane. i have seen dozens of people say the opposite, myself included. but whatever works for ya, enjoy.
i've done the iso and honestly-after playing around with a stocking-I'm never going that route again-take and 1/8th and toss it into a jar-place stocking on top and shake and bake baby! with 2 minutes of my time i have a nice little pile of kief to play with
my favorites were SD and SAGE kief

I have used ISO quite a bit, Cleaning scissors hands and I have done several washes with it, I can never get oil! I do the wash and let it evaporate in a square glass dish. When its dry I scrap it up.
I would like to keep it liquid In oil form how do I do that?
