How to..the pictorial making of "Beer Bottle BHO"®

I know where you can get the glass tube extractors from in Amsterdam. I forget his name but he blows glass in his head shop in the Rembrandt area of Amsterdam. He has a killer shop on the corner. He sells the tubes in a few different sizes and with little custom beads on them. The biggest one I think you could stuff two ounces in. He also sells the orginal plasic honey bee extractor. This is my favorite glass shop in Amsterdam.

I've been trying to get my point across on TC about glandular moisture loss and oil hardness, I don't think anybody's listening though, but I've noticed a loss of moisture (H2o or terpins?) in the gland heads over time (shrinkage), which you should be familiar with as an experienced bubble maker, the age of your material and the hardness of the final bubble/oil go hand in hand due to this loss of moisture "before" using for hash making, but I think your hard oil and the use of older material is a good example of what I'm trying to get across to others, and maybe I'm just wrong?. sorry for the long winded answer bro lol, pez :D


no, you're the dude not listening, cuz i told gauis on TC about your ideas and the probability that that was his problem.

so there. :D

Right to the point kutster, thats what I like about you man, no fluff :)

I obviously don't see this the way you do, I just throw out my educated angle and folks can take it or leave it, but personally, I don't really care why it happens lol, I know how to get what I want with the oil, I'm happily ripped all of the time, but I still think my angle has some validity and we should leave it at that, its not that big of a deal with me bro, but it does seem to be an issue with you? :D

Keep it hashy Kut cause thats all that really matters huh and thanks for all of your help and tools man, luvin the oil dish. ill send you some freebie glass stuff I make this summer after I have a better ideal what I'm doing lol.

great thread..... the way my friends mum n dad used to take the bottoms off bottles for hot knives(similar to ur way Gaius) wwas to put a bit of just boiled water straight outta the kettle in the bottom, the stand it in a pot of cold, and drop ur heavy screwdriver down the bottle......it should come off fairly clean.....

i think HmK was saying that he agreed with you about the old trichomes. it is indeed what he answered when i asked him why my second to last bho was so dry and crumbly. i was thinking i had purged too long, but it was the fact of using years old material that made it so brittle. this was the answer.

Hashmasta-Kut said:
you said its really old stuff, its not purged too long, it just has a lower moisture content in the trikes i guess, as maximo was saying one time.

i never run trim much, but i assume 10 percent would be a really good yield. you can pack the tube pretty tight man it should work

My bad, Lol, sorry Kutster, I'm opening my mouth and inserting my foot, I hadn't seen that reply to you from him, Kut you really confuse me sometimes bro? but you are master of oil :bow: and I but a mear intermediate oil making weenie, I do mean well when I'm trying to help my bro's though.

Thanks for keeping the thread alive y'all, I guess I really don't know how good I have it? :D

Peace gaius and HMK
 
I see that it was mentioned that the wider beer bottle would be better that the smaller diameter tubes as far as surface area of material exposed to the solvent. My question is how wide is too wide? I have a wine bottle that has an i.d. of ~3.5" Given the same total volume, would a shorter fatter tube be better than a longer skinny one?

I'm new to the BHO world as I have been doing QWISO so far, but that gorgeous ruby colored oil has me drooling :D

Another question for you. Does the coffee filter clog up with the beer bottle method like filtering ISO? Is "wash" time as critical with the BHO extraction as it is with ISO?

ok now you are too stoned too post. you gotta read the whole post you are replying to before you decide how to answer..

wok the heck are you talking about ?!!? i said i agreed with you! wake up and get your face out of the oil dish. i have no issue or problem except when stoners misunderstand me. i told gaius that your theory of why his oil was dry was probably correct .

I know certain types of bottles will work better than others for the "manual bottom separation". I tried with a Labatt's bottle (and tried, and tried). All I got for my time was a hand that ached all night from hitting the top. No one else could get it to break either. Have to find some cheap thin bottles I guess.

I'm sure you've already done your first time by now Uncle Jesse? yes?/no? sorry for not getting back sooner.

Hey DF good to see yaa again :) its SSxWW (sensi starXwhite widow) I've kind of figured out the hows and whys of oil colors, the red I'm not sure I can reproduce because I don't know how I got the plants to dry the way they did before making into oil.

Lol, hope your hand feels better flipmode, thats why I would cut the bottom off, you get a larger selection of bottle types that way and no sharp jagged edges when cut-off with a diamond wheel :)

I was thinking about doing this with a 24oz heineken king size. How many coffee filters should I use?

What speed do you use on the dremel drill?

use the dremel on 1 or 2. I just made mine like 10 minutes ago. I didnt use a diamond bit, but did use a carbide cutting wheel. worked like a charm. on the first one i tried actually cutting all the way through the glass, but noticed that when scored by the dremel all the way around, the glass would crack and break free along the score. Score!! so anyways i dont have any buds or trim to pack them with yet, but i am waiting on harvest time. thanks for the great idea Maximo, and keep it irie

Hey Gringo, I use 1 or 2 filter, 1's better in the long run as 2 seem to collect allot more of the oil in the filter and unless your going to smoke the filters (yuck) id stick with 1 if you can, but 2 is ok also, and low speed for the dremel

:D hey Teh_Baker, hope you get to fill'er up soon m8. and thanks :)

Thanks ojd, keep it hashy bro :)

Peace
