Hash talk

Still talking RSO.
I've seen how people cure buds in water to help draw out chlorophyll.
What does anyone think about water curing before making RSO?
The upside might be a cleaner oil. The downside might be taking away the full-spectrum aspect of RSO.

These are the questions of home chemists that are valid, unfortunately the answers can only be found in a lab qualitative analysis. Expensive and usually excluded by labs from the work of home chemists. The closest you will get at home is to make it both ways, then get volunteers to do a blind "taste test" and have them report results.

Ckbrew moonrocks are buds covered in oil and rolled in kief. My research was a little disappointing. About all I saw was people dropping oil on their buds, then the kief. Not much more than loading up a bowl. I thought it was going to be a whole other experience, dipping buds in oil then using a vacuum chamber to really oil up the flower. Might go ahead and see how that works.

The water cured RSO looks interesting.
Water curing pulls out the leaf stuff, but it also pulls out some terpenes. I don't know how I feel about that since RSO is heated to 180°+ and terps are already plenty lost. The stuff I made is the most potent, most whole body, most entourage effecting marijuana product I have ever had. I use way less than I do 80%+ live resin. Whatever terpenes are lost, I don't know about. Now, I have to consider if it'sFranklin 's strain or the final product. The finger pressed hash is in line with the RSO but not as whole body. Don't know about the flower. I'm leaning to the effects of the flower, in concentrated form.
Next in the brain queue: water cured and dewaxed RSO. I have some experimenting to consider.

Still thinking.
If water curing removes terpenes, does making IWH remove terpenes? Or is it a time thing? Days curing versus minutes in ice water. Can the terpenes be extracted from the water? If there are terpenes in curing water, can you drink it for benefit?
