i made some ISO hash yesterday, and its been sitting with a fan on it since. theres this last bit that isnt evaporating. it doesnt smell like ISO at all. i think its water, like someone put water in it. i dont think anyone here would do that though. the bottle says its 91%. do u think its watered down or something? what should i do? can i heat it up to evaporate it?

Alright. What kind of pan is the Iso/hash solution sitting in right now (i.e. Dimensions & Is it a pot/pan/pyrex dish/what?)? Also, it's going to take more than a day to evaporate off all the alcohol; give it time. Also, I would make sure the fan is sucking the alcohol away from the dish, rather than pushing the air over the dish (I learned the hard way, and lint and dust got in my iso hash). Give it time, and get a razor ready...

And yes, your alcohol is definitely watered down...It's 91% Isopropyl Alcohol...What do you think the other 9% is...? You guessed H2O.

lol yeah i figured the rest was water ;-)
it is in a ceramic dish that could be heated if needed. last time i did this, it all evaporated overnight. this morning there is about half the amount of liquid as last night, so it is evaporating. its just doing it slower than expected i guess.

btw, last time i did this, it was a bitch to scrape the sticky icky off the dish with a razor. that shit is so gooey its like tar. especially on the corners. any better ways of doing this process than the way i am? that would be nice to have a hard plastic material that can fold into a bowl shape to evaporate the ISO, and then unfolds and becomes flat to scrape the hash off

the other way i was thinking of was just pouring the ISO in a clean bong(where the water goes), and after it evaporates, heat the bottom with a torch to hit it :lol:

it was a lot easier to scrape off this time. its more of a goo. when the lighter hits it, it melts and boils for a while

Razor and elbow grease is my method.

And I would advice against what you are saying with a tube and iso oil.

That's what they want you to think.
