thats crazyyyyyy. all with just 1 grams worth, can you explain these two pics?

Im guessing the left filter is the ethanol wash, while the right filter is your soak thermos filter ?
Actually it's the same screen from the winterized filtering. The pic on the left is just the WBHO filtered, then after that picture i rinsed a few of my nug jars out with Everclear and dumped that through as well. The second picture is after it was all filtered through, the bits of plant material came from rinsing the jars out. This whole time i make sure any Everclear than goes through the filter is very cold.

I don't have a picture of the thermos filtering.

"i had a half pickle settle out of the solution".. what?!?!?!
lol i was sitting eating a couple hot dogs for lunch, finishing off the pickles and i just looked down at the jar. Noticed the similar color and that it would be funny to be like wtf why is there a pickle in my solution??

I'm going to trim up the rest of my LCOG that i posted pics of a while ago, perform a QWEt, followed by a BHO soak, followed by the water rinse Fadedawg mentioned to me. The water rinse will go into some edibles for camping...might help me relax if it's cold out.

Not sure how much i'm going to be running.....probably only a small amount like 14g possibly. I have this super scraggly LCOG about to finish here in a week or so...and that one is going to be process into 90% extracts leaving the best few nugs for vaporizing. It'ss be around 1.5oz my guess.

Just want to follow up on the oil i finished yesterday. Again the high doesn't rush to your head, nor does it give you complete couch lock. It is a very mellow chill out/take the edge off oil, but that's only a couple dabs worth. I have a feeling if i just went to dab-town i would be fairly useless.

I through some in the vape on top of some herb last night and it lasted a long time just puffin away on the whip then finish it off with the bong.

looks like it might be wet and gooey but i can roll it around in my fingers, shatter it, scrape it with the dabber with nothing sticking. Last night i folded the parchment over from the left to right as to cover it form dust. This morning it looked like this...so it isn't stiff as a rock and at room temp it was able to slowly and slowly stretch up. Only time it wants to stick to my fingers is if they are already sticky or after about 5 sec from touching. It has such a smooth glassy surface texture.

Alright! Got 3oz off that LCOG so far...i left around 1oz on the plant to continue flowing for a week. choppin down tonight. want to see how the high changes if it does at all. I noticed a lot more milky and darker trichs earlier today.

IMG_20130427_132914_922.jpg19grams into QWET. Followed Skunk Pharm...except for the hot oil(used double boil with a lower temp and long evap time)....and i actually soaked for 6 minutes not 3.

I got a lot of crap when i strained it through a ss strainer then filtered through 25micron filter. It was also very amber, made me think it had a lot of oil in it...so i actually rinsed everything that caught in the filter into the pan, warmed it and soaked it, then refiltered it into another pan...sorry totally forgot to take a bunch of pics.

Even after filtering that second time i still caught a lot in the filter...IMG_20130427_211839_114.jpgIMG_20130427_211926_587.jpg
I'm about to go scrape the pan:) which is very light yellow and really doesn't look like a GREAT yield, but i'm excited to do the second soak as BHO...i'm currently letting the material dry out really good before i re freeze it in a thermos.

Real quick, i washed the material with Everclear for the six minutes because after three it still look very clear, even after six it wasn't as dark as i wanted. Also i used more Everclear than i thought i would need, but i could have done more estimating before hand. In cost, i might have used a buck less than if i performed a BHO soak.

Off to scrape, MORE after this commercial break...[video=youtube_share;j22SfSS9x7c]http://youtu.be/j22SfSS9x7c[/video]

Honestly was hoping to get a little more. But for my very first QWEt i'll be happy. After i had filtered the Everclear i didn't even think i was going to get this much by how clear it looked.
I love the color too :) i'm going to get some sleep now but i'll be up early to answer some question if any!
It's Gina's birthday tomorrow so i prolly won't be spending too much time on RIU

Your last post was #666 for the thread.

She says thanks! She's about to try some but she doesn't want to get wiped out for dinner with the family so maybe later tonight she'll try some of it. I'm uploading a video to share, maybe a couple.
Post it here in 15 min or so.
After i threw my QWET in the vac and in hot water...then forgot about it while sitting on RIU. It really bubbled up and reached 145F. Ran off the parchment a little bit but recovered most of it. Ended with right around 1.9g yield...10%, not fantastic but it's pretty good stuff.
Stay tuned for the video.

Sorry for the delay on the vid, wanted to edit it a bit, then Gina decided to vape with me.
[video=youtube_share;0qMdZWCDkG0]http://youtu.be/0qMdZWCDkG0[/video]


Lighter stuff is the QWET LCOG 19 grams in...1.9 out-10%. Not very impressive but it's damn good shit. It vacuumed for about 20 min at 145F, after scraping, i forgot about ti and did not want the temp to hit that high. It bubbled up a lot and ran off the parchment a wee bit but i recovered most of it. Going to perform a BHO run of that material tonight afte we get back form Gina's grandparents.

Darker stuff is that mix-mingle BHO soak of TW-LCOG-BD. Second/third soaks. Still love it just more sedative of course, but not entirely. Taking dabs of the QWET and BHO mixed is pretty awesome. Well i'm off! Back tonight.

In regards to not being able to scrap the corners, i just rinse the pan and save that everclear for the next run. if you really wanted to, instead of saving it you could just use my mirror method or just slowly drip in onto a hot pan and don't let it run to the corners...pretty easy as long as you have patients. I'm not using my mirror anymore though, it's just way less involved when you throw it into a pan. I'm probably going to be doing things slightly different if i plan to distill and recover my everclear.

like those first shots of the oil in the bowl!
