first time getting resin from pipe

[wayoftheleaf]

okay ive never cleaned my pipe and gotten the resin out..
i checked it and it has quite a bit in there. Do i just use a knife to get it out? does it stick to itself to roll it into a ball or do i need something else? and can i smoke it in a pipe when im done?

[JordaN23]

Just scrape it with a knife like you said then roll it together in a ball. It's sticky as fuck so it works haha/

[wayoftheleaf]

lol okay sounds good

[JordaN23]

Dude people are going to diss you for smoking res... Shit tastes bad, but man reply and tell us how it was, res still gets you high..

[wayoftheleaf]

idk ive smoked it before it got me pretty high. and the people who first got me smoking swore by it. never really thought it wasnt somein people looked down on.

[JordaN23]

Nah I wasn't looking down on it, I re read my post I guess it sounded like that. I don't mind smoking res here and there but I usually got weed anyways.

smoke the resin we all have.......:thumbsup:

lay the pipe in a bath of isoprophy alcohol, the gunk will all slide out.

then, if you wanna keep the gunk, just let the alcohol evaporate.
it will evaporate fairly quickly, cause the flashpoint of isoprophyl alcohol is less than room temp.

I usually just use a knife to scrap out the bowl part where i put the weed then i get some q tips and put them in the carb to clean out the inside, its never usually completly resin free but i dont smoke resin and i just throw it out. Smoking resin really is nasty i guess it can get you high but it is probobly mostly placebo, just wait till you get some nice greenery and have fun.

its not a placebo at all... resin gets you hammered

man, i've been smoking resin for years, when you're hurting for a blast and you've got no dealer for 90 miles, you've gotta make due. the trick with resin is to make it smoke it has to be contained and heated, not put into the open flame, wrap it in tinfoil, or fire up the stove and throw on a couple butter knives...it gets you wasted! and it really doesn't taste that bad, i mean, im sure we've all tasted worse...right?

if your pipe is glass - run hot water thru it- if it is metal as suggested above alcohol cleans well

Just get a bowl of boiling water, and let ur pipe/bong soak in it for about 15 mins and every 5 mins or so just scrape the sticky stuff out. Then after its been soaking get an empty coffee can and cut out the bottom of it, then take the lid of the coffee can and cut out a big hole. Then get a coffee filter and stretch it across the top of the coffee can and then put the lid on so it holds the filter down. Then remove ur pipe from the boiling water and shake out any remaining resin into the water. Then set the Coffee can over top ur drain in ur sink. Then slowly poor the water that ur pipe was soaking in onto the filter. U can also use a paper towel as a filter but coffee filter works best. Then after u have poored all the water thro the filter,take the lid off and grab the filter and squeeze any water that is left, out. then just set aside under a light to dry. Dont let it get to hot or it might burn up. Hopefully this works, i read this some where online before, forget where tho.

Happy tokin!:rasta:

Yeah, I have to agree with Papaporn...I use the same method, except I put some olive oil in my water as it helps keep the wooden bowls nice...but I just keep a slow rolling boil going till I have all the resin loosened...Then use a few tools, like a small screw driver, nut pick to get all that didnt come loose...

[Papaporn]

I got a alot of resin out of my pipe using that method. I got a marble sized resin ball. It was a good smoke, I just used 2 knives and heated em up, works great.

Oh hell no would I look down on a toker for smoking resin. Herb is the gift that keeps on giving.

People only light up resin balls when desperate times call for desperate measures. Does it get you blitzed? You fuckin bet it does. Tastes like your lungs are coated with vasoline afterwards; so be warned.
