Making Hash

put a load of shake in a large container filled with Everclear (190 Proof). How long do i have to soak a cheesecloth bag of shake to extract the thc? Trying an evaporative process to hopefully wind up with some pretty good sludge. I think i have 3-4 loads to soak before draining off most of the Everclear.
 
Put it in the freezer for two day then take it out and shake moderately for three consecutive minutes, then running through the cheesecloth .When you evaporate the Everclear make sure to use a Flat Glass surface that is easy to scrape with a razor blade.
 
Freeze Your everclear for 48 hours and trim in separate jars. After that wash for 5 min and you will have the best golden color everclear. After the everclear evaporates you will be left with a nice dark honey colored resin. I would get a source turbo if you do this a lot. Saves a lot of money in everclear because it reclaims it so you can use it again. You can also do a second wash of your material to get whatever the first wash didnt get. First wash will get 70-80 % of the thc. Longer soaks just strip the chlorophyll, fats, waxes and lipids which does nothing for you.

I've never done trim so cant guarantee no chlorophyll will make it into final product. I like to freeze fresh trim and make bubble hash. I use qwet (quick wash ethanol) extraction on my buds and then put it through source turbo to make either tinctures or smoke able hash oil. If you plan on smoking please give it time to evaporate all the remaining alcohol.

First Pic of one of my best washes. The pic with oil is my first batch ever and I was to impatient to let everything freeze. Since then it's coming out more golden everytime.

Can you do this with ABV (obviously not the trichome freezing part, but the everclear extraction and evap). I’ve got ounces of the stuff and I don’t use it. Because of one of the meds I’m taking, edibles don’t work for me. Can I use the resin like wax in my pax 3?
 
Im actually pretty new to vaping and have never used a fancy vap. The oil made with this extraction is really thick almost like wax. Can even be made into shatter if you have a vacuum pump. ABV should work ok i would think but ive never even heard of abv before today.
 
nevermind looked up abv lol and i call it reclaim :D. Yes mixing abv with everclear should work out ok but why dont you just dab the abv? Its harsh and nasty tasting but i dont see alcohol helping with that. Unless your using the everclear to clean your bong and get the abv out :D

Reclaim is the resin left over in the vape. ABV stands for Already Vaped Bud. It’s just the bud that’s leftover after you vape it. It’s still got THC, so it can get you high. Most people just eat it since it’s already decarbed, but that doesn’t work for me. So you think the everclear method would work with used bud?
 
I dont see why it wouldnt work. Everclear should dissolve any of the leftover thc IF there is any. After you evap all the alcohol i would spread the remaining oil out on a silicon mat or glass and let sit for a few weeks before smoking to make sure all everclear is gone. Can put in a pizza box or something to keep it covered or use a cheesecloth. You could also point a small fan at it and speed up the process but chances of dust etc getting in it is high.
 
Also i dont think the everclear is worth using for such a low amount of thc. Especially if you cant reclaim your everclear.
 
Rosin is good but you can do more with oil made from the source. Rosin got to much junk in it and you have to winterize to get it out. Which is basically soaking with everclear and freezing :/. I have a rosin press and source turbo and really only time i make rosin is when i dont have any oil. Got my source for 600 btw and did i mention how much other stuff you can do with the source! You can make essential oils and make lotions.
 
Huh, I thought rosin was supposed to be a really clean product? Guess I need to research more. I’d love to turn my spent bud AND my trim into extract.
