ISO Hash

  1. How long does it take to evaporate, I'm not dry so it's no rush but just curious cuz I don't wanna be smoking alcohol. Any help would be appreciated.
     
  2. Depends on your method of drying. 
    Double boil bath could take less than an hour, while vents and fans could take 24 hours. possibly less. There are a lot of factors to consider.
     
  3. Do not rush the drying process. I highly recommend no heat

  4. I agree. I live in a dry climate, and let mine dry naturally. It starts as a pale green, and cures to a nice amber color.
     
  5. No heat during evap.
    some will debate but can't go wrong with no heat.
    after you scrape you can use heat to further purge or get desired texture.
    just keep it around 100 +/- if you do.

  6. It also depends on the purity of the ISO you use.  If you use the 70% stuff found most places, it will take longer due to the greater water content.  You'll also pull more waxes and lipids.
     
    Using 99.9% mine dries usually overnight with a small fan blowing across it.  Scrapes  up nice.  This is some second wash.

  7. don't apply heat it will take about a day depending on the quantity of iso you used i reccomend when it's just about dry to take some sort of poker and stir it around a bit to help get out any left over iso
     
  8. Thanks for the replies everyone!

    I've got it drying on a plate with no heat added.

    Another question, I have around a quarter of stems would the same method be able to be used on the stems?
     
  9. stems will make some ass tasting headache inducing nasty oil dont waste your time
     
  10. Thanks for the heads up much appreciated

  13. I made some dope ass ISO yesterday with stems/shake I had since last year. It turned out pretty good. The stems had a lot of bud left on em too I was not trying to extract some bullshit haha. was actually my best run ever. WAs right under par to that ^^
     
  14. If your not extracting terps your doing it wrong. i dont complain last time i even would have had to think of running stems was 10 years ago.

    Well your probably in a better situation financially than me and don't need to save stem for that your the better man With the better life.

    But don't say it's nasty this and that it's no different goal than extracting from any other material. We want the thc ...you saying its headache inducing implies YOU are the one doing it wrong extracting chlorophyll..that's the reason it's nasty to you bud. Lol

    And ISO alcohol does not extract all the terps that bho does that's known stuff not new info....I know you know that too I see your posts on the ISO thread. No need to argue simple obvious ISO tech.

  16. Low thc levels of course!!! which is exactly why stems have a low return this is day one stuff man!

    And I promise you your best tasting ISO has no where near the terp profile of even decent bho.
    I'm sorry it just doesn't.
    I'm not calling you a liar I've made amazing tasting ISO but even still like I said^

    If your too good for stems soon you will soon be too good for ISO because ISO is the inferior solvent.
    Arguing best ISO reminds me of ugliest dog contests. Lol

    Like I said no need arguing simple ISO tech.

  17. Havent used iso in years if making oil I use ethanol. But mostly solventless these days.
     
  18. ISO and ethanol are two different things ISO is dirty ass rubbing alcohol.
    We were talking bout ISO tho in this thread soo ethanol is sorta irrelevant.
