Whippets Dangerous?

Whippets Dangerous?

Not sure those whippets have nasty industrial residues. They are made for food production. Whipped Cream, and herbal extractions used by many chefs Myself included. I doubt manufacturers could help themselves from adding something for some reason but I'm thinking it's not some horrible compound. Always a matter of opinion of course. Never once saw something or tasted something or had a wierd reaction because of Nitrous cartridges in my work over the years.

I am a big fan of "Modernist Cuisine" The authors are incredibly fastidious and scientific. They use compounds and naturally derived isolates to do remarkable things with food. They are under tremendous scrutiny by the Culinary experts of the world. I would doubt they would use something with industrial nastiness mixed in.
Reputation would be tarnished badly. I do not agree with all the stuff they use and accomplish, not at all. But it's safe nun the less.



Certainly if whippets are dangerous, I would be dead after my stint in Collage. LOL

Getting a medical Tank of Nitrous is not that difficult, I suppose for "Production" of quantities you could use that. Im sure its Pure.


:whee:

My Second try

My Second try



I used a combo of Sweetleaf from my grow and a 1/4 oz of commercial which I don't smoke, now that I can grow my own.

I used everclear and an obscene amount of weed.

Weed dried for a week then toasted for an hour at 215 degrees.

Ill try it tonight.

The verdict is a rousing! Meh

The verdict is a rousing! Meh

OK buzz, but not as good as I hoped.

1 Shot espresso w/ 1 oz of the Dragon

Tasted damn good tasting, actually. Had it worked well it would become a regular thing

I quit making green dragon in 2011. There is a better tincture method.

Extract your hash oil with 99% isopropanol or butane, purge, and dissolve in Everclear 190. You can make it as concentrated as you want. My tinctures are strong enough that you can measure your dose by counting the drops. 5 drops of hash oil tincture tastes a lot better in a drink compared to a shot of green dragon. Doing the initial extraction with ethanol makes it taste awful, especially if it's lower proof than 190.

I do not wish to start any kind of disagreement and hesitate to disagree completely with a solid statement someone stands behind
but...

I did not have any feeling of being sure either

Nitrous Oxide Chargers

according to the 2 weeks I spent thinking to develop a product when I saw this article a few months ago and researched it heavilly
have BAD STUFF in them and are not pure...
Nitroterpetholator!..jpg
if not for that The Nitroterpetholator might have made me rich like I first thought it might...
but fighting nasty contamination is an uphill battle I've grown just barely older and smarter enough to avoid...
and I benched the whole thing because of THIS AND THIS ALONE

and legally filling tanks for "racing"
1/2 of which rpobably dont go into an engine...
is grey area law in most places...
AND thats contaminated too but not so bad
if ANYONE uses that type of nitrous they can filter it through a huge wad of steel wool stuffed in a tube to remove the iron oxide n such as I recall,
But, one and all, please be careful with your health

Sorry to be a nerd here, but you're not decarbing the hash oil at all and your serving size is about 0.25g (assuming standard size dropper) and thats after its diluted by the 190º alcohol, how are you even getting high? Do you have a very large dropper?

Decarbing isn't necessary with cured bud or trim. The extracted hash oil can contain 70% or more THC. Dissolve the oil 50/50 with everclear, and you can easily get 5 mg or more THC per drop. That's per drop, not dropperful. A full milliter of this would be an "overdose" for most people.

I haven't had my tinctures tested, but my dose estimates are comparable with the same dose of tested edibles bought at dispensaries.

OK, but that sounds more like you're thinning out the errrl with Everclear than dissolving the entirety of the THC. Is the fluid substantially thicker than fresh, unadulterated Everclear? No doubt a drop packs a nice punch at that intensity, even better if its a thickish fluid cause that makes the drops bigger :biggrin:

Hash oil and 190 proof ethanol can dissolve in any ratio. 50/50 is pretty damn strong. I use a higher percentage of alcohol in most of my tinctures.

It does get thicker with a higher percentage of hash oil. It's still runny enough to use with a medicine dropper at 50/50. One advantage of 50/50 is the taste. I can drop it on my tongue, and it tastes awesome. If it's 10% hash / 90% Everclear, it burns a little. That type of tincture is better when added to a drink.

I bet your stuff is just about strong enough to serve on a sugar cube & it sounds lot more convenient carrying around in a little dropper bottle than the 125ml hot sauce bottle & teaspoon I roll around with. I'm already looking forward to making your ultra high density tincture recipe next time I get my hands on a few g of appropriate dabbage. Rolling around town knocking people out with sugar cubes is my kind of of fun.
