My Experience with Rick Simpson Oil

[WKRMN]

@Weezard Woop! I'm at the boiling process now (in cooker). Seems to be working fairly well! I have a "pee" colored liquid that is slowly shrinking. I've done a pretty small batch, only 3/4 OZ...so I'm not expecting major results...hopefully I get at least a few drops.

One more question and I will start a new thread to document progress. How do you clean your equipment out? Would dish soap be good? Seems to remove the sticky residue from my hands quite well. Aloha!

[Weezard]

Well first I rinse with warm alcohol to reclaim traces
I also rinse it from swatches of paper towel that I wipe spills with.

Then just pop 'em in the dishwasher.
You should get about 4 grams.
A tad over 1/8th oz.

Good job!

Ok...I'm still warming on the coffee warmer. LOTS of bubbles...but its more like a foam. They don't seem to be popping. Should I just let it keep going until they are all gone by themselves? Should I stir? If I leave it on the warmer too long will it burn the oil?

[WKRMN]

Mission complete! I ended up with approx 4 grams...although it was super hard to suck it up into the syringe. This stuff is soooooo sticky. I mean like, you cannot wash it off your skin or utensils or teeth sticky. Is it supposed to be so sticky?

A trip to Amazon.com in search of rice cookers and coffee cup warmers resulted in page after page of possibilities. Can anyone here recommend a particular brand of cooker and warmer that has worked out well for them? Would sure hate to ruin my first batch of RSO by buying inferior equipment.

Yes, yes it is.
Especially on the teeth.
That's why I use capsules.

Sticky just means that you got all the solvent out.
And it's safe to consume.
In moderation.

Have to keep it hot to "suck it up".
At 80 F. it's a hard squeeze to fill the caps.

Oh, and stirring is advised at the final stage.
I use a round kine toothpick to prick the bubbles and stir.
No want to scorch it.
Probably should have mentioned that.

Wipe the toothpick with a small piece of paper towel.
Save those pieces and toss them in with the next batch.

And you will find it more efficient to make larger batches.
You get the same amount of waste but it's a smaller percentage of the yield.

Well done brah!
Take a bow.

Capsules are definitely the smart way to go. I was sucking this stuff of my teeth for an hour last night! I only tried a small amount (basically licked a toothpick I used to stir the final burn off)...didn't feel anything until I woke up at 3am due to a storm...oh man, I felt super relaxed. Ok...enough posting here...time to start a new journal. Thanks again everyone! I'll post pics in the new thread of my process as well...it was way easier than I thought!

True for the first batches of oil that I have made referring to the sticking to the teeth. All of the oil I make now it almost instantly dissolves. There is very minimal sticking to the teeth if at all.

No chlorophyll or other unwanted elements. When I get the oil to come out amber or a translucent golden color, it is more runny and it dissolves in the mouth much better. It tastes great too! That doesn't necessarily mean that it is any better medicinally. Just the way I prefer it.
