  1. Making a small batch using 7g of high quality bud. How much everclear do I need to mix?

    is it 190 proof?
     
    break up your buds by hand into small 1/2" or so pieces and place them in a jar and stuff them in lightly. Only pour in enough to cover the material and then gently swirl for 30sec. Make sure everything is frozen for at least 12hr before washing.
     
  3. I was thinking more along the lines of this process:

  4. It's 190 proof.
     
  5. so you're doing a butane extraction first? you're thread title says bud so thats a little confusing
     
  6. if you're using the process in that vid and doing butane extraction like JC mentions, then don't go by the amount of bud, go by the amount of butane.  2:1 butane to everclear - example - if yuo blast 300ML butane, pour in 150 ML 190 everclear.  I believe thats what most here do and what i personally do.
     
    p.s. dont evap at 170F in that vid like that guy unless you dont mind that your shatter will have 0 taste.  Go 90-110F if you want to keep some tasty flavor.
     
  7. Much appreciated fellas.
     
  8. evaporate with no heat. once its scrapable, start vaccing.
     
  9. So... What was his yield of shatter using this method with a half pizzie?
