Sounds good D
I got a mix of white and dark chocolate. yummy
I did it pretty easily... just chop that shit up real well (I used a coffee grinder), let it soak for a few days shaking occasionally, and then strain it/evaporate it. Oh yeah, and then smoke it. Zing! Good luck.anybody think i can make iso hash with a glass jar and some coffee filters? any tips b4 i try?
Yup, I've done that. I'd use a few filters, one isn't good enough, I don't think. I was thinking of a stocking over the mouth of the jar as a prefilter might be a good idea. As the guys were talking about earlier here, I'm also going to chop finer when I do it next time. Also, instead of squeezing, I'm going to suspend the wet trim over the dish and let it drain naturally. I've just found too much fine plant matter getting through and I think that may be what's giving it that dry keif texture rather than the gooey resin that oil is. I also don't think the trim has to be rinsed very long either. Once the ISO makes contact with the trichs, it does it's job as a solvent separating it from the plant matter. Any longer and your starting to dissolve other things like chlorophyll. Kind of like steeping a tea too long and getting all the bitter. I'd welcome, and appreciate, anyone who'll chime in and tell me what you think of my way of thinking.anybody think i can make iso hash with a glass jar and some coffee filters? any tips b4 i try?
Hey Bobo, I've seen guys do this as well and thought that was a tincture, which I guess I've never really understood the difference.I did it pretty easily... just chop that shit up real well (I used a coffee grinder), let it soak for a few days shaking occasionally, and then strain it/evaporate it.

Hope that helps Tryna.
I understand that ISO is bad to ingest. I was also under the impression that tinctures are stored in a bottle so the alcohol doesn't completely dissipate. Also,I understand that some tinctures are ingested, but others are used in ointments and creams so ISO wouldn't be a factor there. What I don't understand is why leave the trim jarred for weeks, or days even, if your only making ISO oil. All you want are the trichomes off the plant matter and that should just take a wash, I would think. I remember watching my brother in law make up some oil some years back and he basically just washed the trim with the ISO and discarded it. So I guess my confusion is the difference in soaking times.
Alright guys.. At week 6 at the mo,things are looking ok. Plants are leaning over more under the wieght ,tied up some but need to go get some garden twine .
took a few shots from the thread..

Peace Dre
Ahhh, stupid Bobo. I'd read someplace to let it soak for a few days... I think it was in Cervantes' book. D'oh! Well, next time I'm definitely just gonna do the quick rinse . . .I have to agree with Duchie. I find the quick wash has been excellent. Much cleaner than the several days soak.
