Easiest way to make hash! Quick Wash ISO!

my stuff snap and can be handled very easy i made a batch to have a little when my hmk slide comes in..i also got a roor for it.. this is from denmakr and is green label. ti seems very think for a bong much thicker than my hand blown pyrex or red eye bongs of the same size.

def a tko product.. im testing all my recipes.. i used to do alot of bubble but no like oil.. gonna try a proper bho setup next.. ive been testing on a few zippers from the summmer bounty.. once i figure out which method gives most yeild and best product ill sick with it and try it with some general good stuff thats going around.
if bho can give me a same potent product but a little more yeild ill be really pleased

So last nights attempt was a success i used a very small amount of bud, about 1.5 grams and got back enough to smear on my buds for two bowls, i haven't been stoned like that since i first started smoking, it was a very intense full body stone, narcotic feeling, loved every second of it. Really wishing i had more. But I'm very pleased with the final product. I washed my grinded up buds twice, once for 15 seconds then again for 20 seconds, the first wash left me a golden brown oil and the second a bit darker. Will be doing this again with a larger quantity of bud at some point

BHO is just better..same yields,same potency...iso just strips way too much off the plant and makes oil dirty, esp. if you dont do it right...BHO is more forgiving in that respect...iso makes BHO look like a painin the ass..plus it takes too long for iso to boil off..

Ran through this thread and found out that one could theoretically use vodka for the extraction... It usually has a low alc% though so the evaporation time should just be longer?

they sell vodka with 80% alc in it where I live and I can't seem to find the "proper" ISO anywhere... Am I good to go with the 80% vodka? Is there a difference between the isopropyl alcohol(isopropanol?) and ethanol when it comes to extracting trichs?


thanks in advance,

Hi teerull,
water is not indeffirent to extraction, the less the better,

To make anhydrous ethanol (or anhydrous anything just about)

1. Bake or microwave MgSO4 (epsom salts) until all the moisture is gone
2. Grind up into a fine powder
3. Add to solvent, shake around (cant add too much)
4. pour ethanol through filter to yield 98%+ pure ethanol

I know the less water the better but my question was rather whether I could use the 80% vodka to extract hash or not...

unfortunately the microgrowers need to make extra sure when making hash with small amounts of trim...

ok, and than again :yappy:

... Am I good to go with the 80% vodka?
-No. There is too much water.
Is there a difference between the isopropyl alcohol(isopropanol?) and ethanol when it comes to extracting trichs?
-Yes. The wash timing is different.

I know the less water the better but my question was rather whether I could use the 80% vodka to extract hash or not...
-No, if you want to get perfect one.
-Yes, if you'll satisfy with unsmokeable gooey.

unfortunately the microgrowers need to make extra sure when making hash with small amounts of trim...
-Even with small amounts of trim the high grade solvent is needed, otherwise you'll get a small amount of poor quality slush for sure. Upgrade your solvent.

What J117 said!

I just tried to help someone salvage such an extraction and was reminded just how bad it is.

Hi teerull,

so you would bake the epson salts, crush, mix with water, strain through filter, then use that liquid mixture to shake around with trim as you would iso alc? thanks for the clarification

Is Everclear available in your area? I have heard good things about using it instead of ISO.

I want to give it a try but haven't yet since it costs so much more than ISO.

If I couldn't get ISO though...I would definitely buy the Everclear.

I have noticed that the alcohol drains very slowly through the coffee filter, is there any other kind of filter to use that drains quicker. And is it ok to let the alcohol just sit there and drip until its all filtered through? The alcohol isnt sitting in any leaf material at this point its been strained through some mesh. Will it degrade any if left for an hour or so to finish dripping?

cheese cloth works the best for draining. or a flower bag will work too. check in the baking supplies part of your local grocer

here is a little piece of the kush haze iso i made. i rolled it around i kief so it wouldn't be so sticky. it tastes so good and the smoke is hella smooth.

i wonder about this too... anyone know?
 
i strain once ina metal filter to get big peices of bud out quickly.
then i do a coffee filter and i put a little in and push it through by closing the top and squeezing.

I have tried this but when my iso was all dry it left a whiteish substance on the plante along with the hash oil. I think it could be the white filth people say is left on the coffee filter. Maybe bye squezeing it out its not being filtered correctly?
