QW ISO from hash, stems and trim.

[thekingofNY]

hash was unknown origin, although I suspect somewhere in europe.
the stems and trim were from lots of skunk hybrids, some blueberry, bubblegum, A+ BC import (see gallery),






I don't even know how to describe it. I want to say the majority of the leaf and stems I put in this was from indica/sativa hybrids, however this stuff is incredibly narcotic, like a pure indica, I don't know if its just because its soo concentrated or what.

The taste is exactly like the stuff I put into it, taste very fruity/skunky with a hint of the hash. I smoke it by chipping off a tiny frozen piece and putting it ontop a little green in a small glass spoon... love watching the oil do its thing when the lighter gets near it. (Thanks again to whoever told me to freeze it)

Is there a name for that chemical reaction? Where it like melts into the herb and vaporizes at the same time, looks cool as hell. I try to keep the flame 1/4in. away or so just to watch it

I smoke for both medical and recreational purposes, this stuff is at least 5x stronger than 10/325 hydrocodone and obviously 10x better for you.. I don't understand why people that are terminally ill everywhere can't get this. Although I smoke every day before work, sometimes on lunch, and after, I can't smoke this stuff in the morning or before work, I tried the morning after I made it and wanted to go to sleep by 7pm (I usually go to bed at midnight).

In conclusion; I would kill to try some oil from all haze strains or strong Sativa based trim/buds, I love Sativa's. Either way this shit MESSED me up and helps me takes much less painkillers when I can smoke it, although makes me pretty dysfunctional.

Also, overall the oil is kind of a pain in the ass to handle if its not completely frozen, i just left it out for maybe a whole 2 minutes before handling it and wasted a few hits stuck to my fingers...I also forgot to add how long it burns for? one tiny chip makes .2 packed of weed last forever...

how much did you use to get that much ISO

 

[NorCalChron]

you used hash for iso? i would rather have the hash haha

iso is down i guess but make bho if at all possible

I really didn't like the hash at all, it has a wierd taste, which carried over to the iso, but its 100x better in the oil....

I thought it was "Soapbar" originally, but after posting pics on here and describing it, the consensus was that it was deffinetely not soap.

how much did you use to get that much ISO

5 grams of leaf/stem mix, probably 50/50 but i really have no idea, stems take up alot more room, and then also a gram of decent hash.

The first time i only used like 3 grams of stem/leaf and only ended up with like 1/2 a pencil eraser sized peice....it wasn't even worth all the effort that time.

Although i never actually weighed the final piece, and I have never weighed oil before, I ended up with at least .3 I would think.

Edit: smoke report updated in original post and combined two replies
Also, pictures of what some of the trim came from...really have no idea on the strain, its a very fruity skunky taste, quite amazing in itself.

I'm thinking of making some of this again though my last two times went very badly I won't go into that but how long did you wash the trim with the iso and did you use 99%?Nice oil you have there have you made it before and it was gold.I heard a quick wash has a tan/golden look too it i also seen on a thread that that person made some and it was golden colored.

No i have never personally seen it gold, however I know the thread you are speaking of, this stuff was washed for 1 minute and 45 second, and strained through 2 coffee filters, it took probably another good minute or minute and a half for all the liquid to strain through, at that point i undid the ruber band that was holding them on the jar and squeezed the rest through myself.

Also, at that point the stuff is a nice green color, then as it dries it turns more amber, only when you bunch it up a ton does it turn dark black looking like that, if u pull it apart really far (stretch) or when u first make it you can see the lighter blondish/brown.

What exactly went "badly" my friend? I dont really understand how anyone can go wrong with the QW ISO, although the directions could be a little more clear, the most important part IMO is to get EVERYTHING prepared before you poor the alcohol over the weed mixture, this way you can shake and strain immediately....

I used the 91% ISO, pharmaceutical grade. Most of the time I laugh at our FDA (and by laugh I do mean hate), however when I hear of people making iso and getting a chemical taste they are either doing something horribly wrong or they live in mexico or india / other country with uncontrolled drugs,

I am not saying good things don't come from both countries, however this is about the only thing the damn FDA is good for (ensuring drug/chemicals consistency, and even then they can't stop counterfeits from aforementioned countries.)

Use 91% and wash it for a minute, I am willing to bet the quality would be amazingly insane, as I did for 1:45 and its still awesome and i got a decent amount. I think the only reason most of us, or at least I scrap the stuff together is in worry if it hardening to much/thin on the baking dish and being screwed, however I later learned you can just pour a tsp or so of ISO and it turns its back to liquid pretty quickly....I learned this by accident the next morning, I thought I was going to have to waste the decent amount I couldn't scrap off the sides/bottom.


On a side note; I would imagine BHO and FMBH are probably even better tasting, the taste and potency is definitely there with the oil, and it requires no tools or bags or cold water or butane.

just iso, coffee filter(s), jars and a glass cooking dish.

I forgot to add it washed the weed a second time for less than 10 seconds, because there was so much plant matter and resin on the sides of that jar that didnt get right into the coffee filter, I anticipated this happening and used a tiny less iso when I started, and also had the bottle right next to where I was shaking, dumped out as much liquid as possible 90% of it, and there was still a bunch with the plant matter, so I couldn't throw it away, i splashed in maybe 1/2 of an liquid oz of iso, shook for 5 seconds and dumped immediately into filter...

Another reason not to shake for a full 2 minutes

If you want purer hash, Do not wash for 1 min 45 seconds

You can make hash more pure by washing 15 seconds the first run, making

sure your trim is frozen. Then second run for 15-30 seconds, etc.



I can only imagine how harsh your hash smokes. . . . . .


EDIT: See that green around your hash on the first pic?

Well, On my First(sometimes 2nd, depends) wash of 15 seconds

There is absolutely NO green anywhere on my pyrex plate.

Im definitely with SensiMilla024. That is way too longtime to wash your erb.

I would use that long, or longer rinse time, if I would make oil for sale into commercial market to get quantity over quality...

If you are after quality, you rinse your erbin ISO maximum 18 seconds. The real "quick wash ISO" is made by pouring ISO over erb that is in metal screen, so the ISO is in contact with erb maximum couple seconds. Now this my friend, is a technique that produces some of the purest ISO oil I have ever smoked..

This oil was made by rinsing buds in ISO for 12 seconds. Notice that it´s first golden, but when I roll a ball from it, the upper layer takes black color. If I break that black ball, it´s golden inside..















Reason why you have such a hardtime handle your oil is that it contains too much green and not those valuable trichomes we are after. The more pure oil -> more consistent -> easy to handle and roll a ball for example without messing your fingers!

If you dont have metal screen, you could try this "technique" next time:

1. Put your erb into those damn coffee filters!

2. Pour ISO over them and let it filter the erb.

3. Now evaporate the ISO from oil and check out the color & quality!!

4. Enjoy of very high quality ISO oil
