butane hash questions...

[m3th0ds909]

Sup IC maggers?! So I never posted in this forum so I hope I'm in the right place...

I recently made some butane hash with dried trim and it came out very oily... all of the butane HAS been purged out and i've tried leaving it in the freezer but after a while it gets oily again. I've been told to whip it thoroughly as this will make it into a more buttery consistency but its consistency has remained very runny and messy.

Q: What is causing this oily consistency? Is it because I'm using trim?

Q: Can I still manipulate it somehow to get a more buttery consistency?

Also, I've recently had to chop a couple of my grls 2 weeks early (so they have been flowering for 8 weeks) and are in the process of drying right now.

Q: Would it be best to let the herb dry out fully before I use the butane extraction method?

Q: Also, would curing this premature nug have a significant effect on consistency, potency, and/or taste?

Thanks for taking to time to review my questions guys. Any input is GREATLY appreciated. Hopefully I don't ruin another batch before someone responds

Lol solvent hash. Peace GS

I dunno about butane, but with alcohol, if it's still oily and messy than all of the solvent hasn't evaporated out yet...and in my little bit of experience is it's nowhere near as good to work with and/consume when it's not fully evaporated.

dry the bud and then freeze it for a bit before extracting.

chopping versus pulverizing works best for me but to each his or her own.

when you put it in the freezer did you allow moisture to get in it? Maybe you have some added water moisture that needs to be heated /evaped off? If you purged well did you vac purge or temp purge?

No I don't think moisture got in it but it is in one of those make up containers... I temp purged it and whipped it for a LONG time with no result... when i freeze it, it behaves like hard puddy...

Just did a run with mostly dried premature herb... got some shatter

post pics a little later
