How to extract hash?

Post by cutthecashflow »

I am curious to how to make hash from using not so high quality bud. If anyone has any advice I would appreciate it . Hopfully a hyperlink or if maybe someone could explain how the process is done. Gorecore I know you did this at one point and was successfull so maybe a few pointers would help me along my approach in solving this issue.

Also if how much do you guys pay in your area for a good bag of hash. I am not talking about soapbar here.

I made a tiny bit hash myself once (not on purpose) though we were just cutting up all our homegrown weed into proper buds, when we noticed alot of sticky shit sticking to our razors.. well we all took it off and it looked very similar to hash, smoked it and it tasted like hash too. So this is one way :p. There are a few others but I can't explain them all (simply because I don't know the exact way to do it). To cover that up I found something here:
The blender method for making hash

Put water in a blender. Add a large handful of leaves, stems, seeds and weak weed. Put it in 3 or 4 ice cubes and blend it for 3-4 minutes or so. Just make sure everything is chopped very finely. Second, you will need a gold reusable coffee filter (or 90-line silk screen). Get a large mouth quart mason jar, and strain your Slurpee mixture through it. Once you have strained all the liquid through, run some more water through the leaf material to wash any extra trichomes through.

After a few minutes you will notice a white collection at the bottom of the jar, this is the trichomes. Let the trichomes settle at the bottom for about 20-30 minutes. Next, pour off the top 2/3's of the filtered green water, leaving the settled trichomes at the bottom. Add more ice water to get the green stuff out, and let the trichomes settle at the bottom for about 20 minutes again. Repeat this step one more time. Pour off as much water as you can without pouring off trichomes, filter the resulting trichome/water mix through a paper coffee filter. The trichomes will not go through the paper, but the water will. When all the water has gone through, slightly wet, cold, mass of trichomes will be left. They will be easy to handle and to press.

The alcohol method for making hash
Take your stash (stems, seeds, weak weed) and place them in a covered pot, with enough alcohol to cover everything. Isopropyl alcohol is commonly available at pharmacies. Look for alcohol that is 99% pure. Denatured alcohol also works well. Sometimes isopropyl alcohol is called rubbing alcohol.
Now carefully boil the mixture on an electric stove. Be careful: the alcohol is very flammable! After 45 minutes of heating you can strain the solids out, saving the alcohol.
Now, repeat the process with the same residuals, but with fresh alcohol. When the second boil is over, remove the solids again, combine the two quantities of alcohol and boil again until you have a syrupy mixture. This syrupy mixture will contain much of the THC formerly hidden in the stash.

Making Cannabutter

Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil, then put a small amount of butter in the water.
The butter melts, and mixes in with the water. Then put the grass or stash in and boil it. Now all the grass will be riling around with the water and the butter. The THC dissolves into the butter. Stir the stuff regularly. After half an hour of cooking the grass, strain out the grass and stash and squeeze all the juice out of it, and put the liquid in the fridge.

A few hours later, the mixture is cold enough so that the cannabutter has solidified to the surface. It will look kind of scummy, but it's just enchanted butter. Scoop it out and retain it in a bowl or a jar. The cannabutter can be used just like butter, in brownies or cake.

freezing it, and then shaking it would be a method, coke bottle, cut bottom of, load bud, panty or some fine material, to shake the glands off.

just look on sites like overgrow.com, lots of methods there.
