On VERY low heat, your THC is safe. Even something like putting it in a glass lasagne pan and the placing the pan on one of those back-pain heat wrap things would help evap off what you don't want. But then go too far, and you end up with goo-hash rather than a tincture... Also the alcohol evaps off first, and your resins are not soluble in water.
Do you own a potato ricer? That is great for pressing out every last drop of goodness from the spent plant matter.

REad up on 'Green Dragon' if you haven't yet. I've used Bacardi151 with as much weed as I can stuff in a jar, a few mint leaves for flavor, and leave in a nice warm place (atop the fridge) for a week. Drain, strain, squeeze, enjoy.
stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . Please help me with my tincture. I've got about an ounce of ground up kind bud sitting in some Everclear. What I keep wondering about is straining. Everything I read says to strain it through cheesecloth or even something as fine as a coffee filter. Now don't some people use coffee filters to strain out trichomes for making hash? Won't the filter keep the trichomes out of my tincture? Or do the trichs dissolve into the alcohol, and can then pass through the filter? Someone please help put my mind at ease about this.
