question about making hash-oil

[hazetwostep]

i know the method of making oil where you mix isopropol alcohol with bud and then boil it off to leave you with oil. is it possible to accomplish the same thing without using heat, but just allowing the alcohol to evaporate over a longer period of time?

probly work, just make sure you get the pure stuff. no 70%iso

yes it will work. the heat is only used to speed up the process. they sell 90 somthing% right next to the 70 in my wallmart. Make sure you use somthing that is easy to scrape like a glass dish that is large enough to fit a stright razor in or it will be difficult to obtain the resulting oil. Just leave it in an open area and wait. you can use a fan to help the process along as well.

what can you use oil for? how much do you need to make enough? i dont mean to hijack your thread but it looks like your question got answered.. maybe since uve gotten this far u could answer mine

im not sure the solubility of thc in alchol so i cant answer how much bud you need per ml of alcohol. but how ever much that is is how potent you can get the oil. If you find that value the potency of 70% and 99.9% would be the same but the 70 would take longer to make the liquid evaporate because water and other minute additives in the iso alcohol take longer to evaporate than the alcohol.

interesting... what do you use hash for?? and how potent is the oil when.. smoked i guess.. but i dont even know if you smoke hash oil

[Left]

yes you smoke it, it a concentrated amount of thc and probably some other canabanoids or stuff that is contained within a smaller oil instead of the larger container, marijuana. smoking hash or oil is a different high, some like it less because it doesnt have the other canabanoids that contribute to the high that an entire bud has. Matter of preference, time on your hands, and quantity/availability of marijuana and other supplies.

thanks for the info guys! i almost used 70% iso so thanks for that tip five0addict.. what a grat community this place is..

glad i can make the oil without risking a BOOM!!! another question... should the iso 100% evaporate or will there inevitably be some still in with the oil? w/o jumping to the health forum, should there be concern???

my suspicion is that it would evaporate as soon as it got heated up. so if any was left, it would be gone affter the first hit.

I knew a guy who used to make this way all the time. He'd just leave it in his closet to all evaporate. It will all eventually evaporate, but I'm guessing it will take a good week or so.
