I asked the same thing and unless you have about 100grams of some good trimmings hash is just a waste. You can do cannabutter as well but that is a decently long process as well. I usually go with cannaoil. all you do for this process is get you veg oil add it to the pot. add about a 1/4 - 1/3 cup water then throw your trimmings in. I stir it often and boil this on a med to low temp for about 45 min or until the water is gone and it get the veggy oil texture back. once thats done I drain it threw a paper coffee filter thats like $0.45 and there is the finished product. I had about a cup of it It was verrryy green and smelt like candy. I put it in brownies and pumpkin bread and it works GrEATTTT. give it a try sometime you will not regret this process. also makes the food taste 100000 times better.
