:D:D:D

I used 100g of fresh frozen sugar trim only. All the flowers are in the jars waiting to be smoked ;)
I post those pictures because I think more details are interesting for who reads, but hey, if I would use such a flower I would use it to make some bho for sure :D

Time to post some new extraction shots. Jars are becoming empty and waiting the next crop I did a quick water extraction using a 250µ (280?) screen to filter the bigger contaminants and then collect the glands over a 25µ screen.
Half an hour and hashish was ready to dry in proper conditions ;)

It's not pure as other extractions I did, but I think the starting material was the key. I mixed 3 different plant's trimming leaves and one was a little bad, too many small parts... when I use trim comes from plants grown in hydro I think the hash tends to be purer...big leaves, big stem don't make much contaminants.

You've shown me a new way and I thank you for it, the simplicity of the funnels and screen is a "I can do that". Great extractions needn't be complicated.

Today I pull out from the freezer all the trim bags and make some good hashish.

The method is the same, filtered with a 280µ and then collected in the funnel on a 25µ screen.

I love concentrates, made with or without solvent, dry or wet processed, everyone has its reason to be :blowbubbles:

However, I collected a lot of trim in the past months....well...maybe years, so I put everything remained doing a good water extraction, one of the best time/quality/quantity method to obtain the resin to me.

I'm pretty sure I could obtain cleaner resin, but this would take more time and I can't feel any difference once melted on the Ti pad, so I just go fast, let's say 1 hour and something to do everything and place the resin to dry.

Couple of days spent playing around with butane and ethanol.

Starting with 13gr of little sugary buds, reduced in size with scissors.

Flowers go inside the thermos (thanks for inspiring me jump)

The thermos cap as one hole to spray butane inside, and one hole with a pressure valve to avoid pression raise too much during the injection.

Now, thermos and butane cans go to rest some hours into the freezer, to low their temperature under the boiling point of butane.

After the freezer phase the injection can start.
I sprayed 2x250ml cans, only little boiling observed, 99% of butane stay liquid.

This is how it looks inside the thermos

I let the weed soak for 1,5 hours shaking it every 5 or 10 minutes and then filtered everything using an o'kief extractor and spray some fresh butane to rinse the weed

picture.php


Now it's time for the butane to evaporate

After butane is gone it's the etOH turn. I add it into the evaporation dish and in a minute everything was dissolved. Waiting one more minutes I saw the first agglomerate:

So I put everything in the fridge for some hours. A lot of stuff comes out and I filtered everything with a 31µ inox screen.

Notice the whitish slime, it should be a mix of fats and waxes and squeezing it it's not sticky.

picture.php


The result is a yellow clear solution, that could lead to think there are no more fats in it, but it's wrong...
