Refine Your Cannabuter: Better Taste, Simple

2 Arrested After Hash Oil Explosion In San Ramon




Two brothers are out on bail following their arrest Tuesday after an explosion at their San Ramon townhouse, allegedly caused by the manufacture of hash oil.

21-year-old William and 24-year-old Ashley Stoeckel were at the home when a small explosion blew the garage door off its hinges(note: this only happens when the extraction is done indoors and the door is closed. ANYONE who has done any research on BHOE knows better than to do an extraction or evaporation in a closed area. But they still did it.),and caused a small fire. Neither brother was hurt.

Investigators say two brothers living on Joree Lane were manufacturing "honey oil," also known as hash oil. It's a potent product extracted from marijuana.

The process is cheap and simple. It involves PVC pipe and a canister of butane. But it's also dangerous, warns the Drug Enforcement Administration. It's like making a pipe bomb.

"You're putting it inside a piece of pipe, and you're adding a flammable material," said DEA Agent Javier Pena. "It's another form of a homemade pipe bomb."

The DEA says in the East Bay alone, at least 4 similar operations have been discovered in the past 6 months.

The police chief in Blue Lake, near Eureka, says a lesson in making honey oil made a big impression a couple of years ago. An explosion blew out the walls and windows in a house and burned two people.

An internet page claims a medical pot activist in Canada died in 2003 trying to make his own hash oil to treat his HIV.

Pena says some web site recipes even come with a disclaimer. "'Blank dot com will not be responsible for any burned down homes and burnt skin,' in parentheses it says, 'hey, it happens,' and it does happen."

The Contra Costa County Narcotic Enforcement Team says a search of the San Ramon townhouse uncovered more than 20 pounds of marijuana, almost $35,000 in cash, and candy bars and cookies containing honey oil.

The idiots were running a butane SCFE in their garage with the doors shut. These aren't kids researching stuff on the internet - 20 pounds of marijuana, cash, edibles. They knew better but they still blew up real good!

scribed since my current butter tastes like plant matter and is green. Yet another great info post Hobbes.

-Butters

Just made a batch of jays black out butter last night. 1hr on high 3 1/2 on low stirring every 20,
came out almost as black as the picture on their website. used 1 oz of high grade outdoor shake to 1 stick of butter,
I also used an amazing buttter i found, I highly =P recommend it its got 86% fat content its called kellys pure irish butter.
came out very dark now i just did this refining bout 20 mins ago so hopefully came out good !

.

Good stuff McGyver! Doc J's recipes are fantastic, cooking expertise with his knowledge of chemistry. Rock solid.

.

A few recipes for Ghee for anyone who doesn't have access to high fat butter. Ghee is normal butter with the protein removed (milk solids), just the fat remaining (~99%). Can bind with a few more cannaboids. Or you can order your Ghee online. Making it is very simple though, fun.

Instructions
Things You'll Need:

• 2 pounds of unsalted butter (adjust butter for your needs)
• A saucepan
• A fine sieve, or a mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth
• A quart-sized Mason jar, or comparable container
• Step 1
  
  
  Melt 2 pounds of unsalted butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat.

.

Step 2:

As soon as the butter begins to boil and foam, reduce the heat to a simmer. Keep the melted butter at a steady simmer until it is golden in color, and no foam remains on the surface.

.

Step 3:

Stir occasionally after the whitish curds sink to the bottom. When these curds turn light tan, the ghee is ready.

.

Step 4:


Cool the mixture, and strain it through a fine sieve or a cheesecloth-lined strainer into a spouted bowl or measuring cup. Discard the curds which were strained from the ghee, as they are nearly pure cholesterol! Pour strained ghee into a sterile, quart-sized jar for storage.

awesome I will have to try it with ghee next time!
how does it taste? same as butter or more fat tasting(obviously)

fucking divs! but what are the feds on about its like a pipe bomb lmao

hobbes. you are one smart person thanks for ALL of your posts. very informative. i have a Q? i made my butter by boiling watrer adding butter brought to simmer addes trim 3oz to a lb of butter. let simmer for 3 hrs. strained cooled and seperated from water. the butter had no effects. no releif from pain and no body buzz. i just refined that same butter and is still in fridge cooling. did i di something wrong with my initial cooking? and if it didnt work the first time do you think it will work this time or am i wasting my time and resources. thanks for any and all info hammer

wouldn't the can of butane itself be a pipe bomb?

.

Hammer it could be your ratios: "trim 3oz to a lb of butter."

Was that 3 oz baked dry, 3 oz clipped, somewhere in between? There is no need to dry the trim, just so we have common measurements.

.

- For 1 tray of brownies I use 1/4 cup (65 ML) of oil and 28 grams of baked dry trim. I would eat the tray in 3 servings, my friends literally 16 - 32 depending on how far baked they wanted to be.

- 1/4 cup of olive oil is about 61 grams >>> (450g per lb / 61g) = 7.4 trays of brownies from 1 pound of butter. From 3 oz of baked dry trim I would make at most 3 trays of brownies, perhaps 2 with a cooking method of resin extraction. 1/2 a tray if the 3 oz of trim was fresh clipped.

- For 7.4 trays of brownies I would use 7.4 oz of baked dry trim extracted with a non polar solvent (high efficiency) where you are using 3 oz - if your trim is dry you are still using half the trim that I do, if your tolerance is high you might not get the effects that you want. If your trim is wet it will loose 75% of it's weight when dry, multiply any difference in the relative trim that we use by 4.

- I've found that Dr Jay's Black Out Bud Butter is the most potent and simplest cooking method of making butter, the recipe is in Weed Science linked below. To refine simple let cool then shake in a mason jar with luke warm water, let gravity separate the foul taste from your butter.

- Refining will not increase potency, only wash out the water soluble terpins and chlorophyll to improve taste. You will loose some small amount of resin in the rinse water.

- save your butter and add more trim to make it more potent.

- A press bowl gave me 25% more yield, of the most potent butter trapped deep in the plant matter. (Weed Science, Cooking chapter)

.

Good luck Hammer!

FDD2BLK do you know if if I can get HTML privileges to edit older posts and thread titles? Thanks.

thanks hobbes, i will work on fig ratios and boosting up the butter i already have.. appreciate yor response +rep

i don't have those powers to give you.

Nice thread man. I love the idea of refining the butter. Would you mind if I posted a link to this thread on my recipe thread? A lot of people ask me questions about making butter...they should know about this process! Just wanted to check with you first. +rep for you sir!

.

"Would you mind if I posted a link to this thread on my recipe thread?"

I would be honoured, thank you Greather!

Check out the cooking chapter in Weed Science (link below), more than 10 years after first stumbling into his site Dr Jay's Black Out Bud Butter recipe is still the most potent cooking method I've found to make cannabutter. There's a link to Doc's site with his BOBB method, more than a dozen great recipes there.

.

Nice...I'll check that out, and I'll post a link now. Thanks for that, you'll help me answer a lot of people's questions!

by the way, if you're ever looking for any recipes, check out my thread https://www.rollitup.org/medicating/372672-anyone-interested-cannabis-recipes.html ........ I take recipe requests! lol...thanks again!

"if you're ever looking for any recipes ... I take recipe requests!"

Canna Maple Butter

.

It's one that I was going to make for Doc years ago for kids who couldn't hold down canna food, dissolves in the mouth and is very tasty. I made Canna Corn Syrup candies that work fantastic, I didn't get around to doing a Maple Butter recipe.

Any type of treat food - fast absorbing and easy to hold down - that children on chemo will be able to keep in their system long enough for the cannabinoids to be absorbed.

I'll check out your thread and if it's ok with you I'll include any recipes for sick children in Weed Science and the Body of The Academy.

Greather thank you so much for offering help.

I'm also looking for a replacement solvent for alcohol for sublingual tinctures - many people don't want, or can't tolerate, any alcohol in their system. Any help you could give - even to rule out possibilities or point me down the right direction - would be greatly appreciated. Please see the Sublingual Tincture link in blue and red at the bottom right of this post.

.

Hobbes, I'm gonna have to do a little bit of thinking to find something that would be good for people on chemo to eat. I know how hard it is for them to keep ANYTHING down for very long, but I'm sure I can think of something. Give me a day or two and I will come up with a few recipes that should be good. Don't worry, I will get back to you shortly!

Still working on the recipes, but here is a link to a discussion I found at grasscity.com....it talks about a method for making tinctures using glycerin instead of alcohol; apparently it works faster than the alcohol based ones but takes longer to make. Good luck with that, let me know if you try it out!

By the way, here is the link to the mysterious page I mentioned a minute ago! lol....knew I was forgetting something! http://forum.grasscity.com/incredible-edible-herb/382844-tinctures-using-alcohol-glycerin-based.html
