Hash and Oil Picture Thread

[crawlintbss]

I guess iso tends to shatter alot. Suprisingly this last run, with using a hotplate has gotten all my batches to a slight glass/sap consistency. Warm in fingers for a few mins and easy to get a pull off of.

Checked out my 1st run after a few days of sitting at room temp and it glassed out nicely. Looks pretty sweet.

Off the hotplate -


After sitting for fews days

Oh no, this thread is falling off the first page...

I had quite a few old slabs of oil that was under-purged and just wasn't looking good as I was extracting, so I put then in the freezer for some future experiments when I got a new vac setup.

Well, since obtaining the vac and chamber many friends are requesting the ole 50/50 split.
so, I got some material awaiting blast off.

I wanted to practice my purge tech and refine it before doing said runs.
So, I collected up all those frozen half purged oils and went to work.
First melted it all down into a patty and vac'd for 1 hour...got this

Hehe you can visually see the mix o' strains.

Lets zoom in and see what it looks like.

Collected off parchment with my dabber like so..

With so many different strains and consistencies I have a consistency that has the properties of a nice wax, budder, shatter and sap.

Adheres to dabber but, not sticky....the aroma is like a punch in the face..

I took one dab, and I've been comfortable for the last 45 minutes.

I'm becoming a wax fan very quickly now that I have a chamber.

Shatter is still good, but IMO...

properly purged wax = Dehydrated shatter.

And pushing past the shatter stage into wax is absolutely much smoother on the inhale, seems to have heightened aroma and flavor.

I don't know the why...
But, I have a theory...

Feedback is encouraged.
When purged completely free of solvent and moisture and the air pockets are formed into the resin, these air pockets allow the terps to oxidize, enabling them to ” free up” upon vaporization points and hence creating a heightened flavor on the palette (terpenes) and a heightened aroma in the nose (terpenoids)

^ again, that last paragraph is complete speculation and would love to hear others thought on this subject.

I'd love to compile evidence on this subject..

However, this all may be moot, as different folks enjoy different strokes.

Hey Blu ya man I'm thinking it doesn't matter what type of solvent it is that has those results. I think it's the temps during extract and evaporation.

I would disagree, duplicate what he is saying and you will see the difference.

ISO white powder has no solvent it and is a final form of concentrate. When done correctly will happen in every QWISO regardless of temperature. (Reference the famous white razor photo)

QWISO doesn't require heat though, BHO does.

I love the taste and aromas from wax, but I've found one huge problem with it.... It degrades WAY too fast.

Those air pockets that you mention exposé more surface area to the air, and degrades a bunch of different stuff. Shatter/glass/Snap™ have minimal surface area, and I'm finding holds MUCH longer.

Try that wax in 3-4 days, and report back on the intensity.

 

[Sirdabsalot462]

Are you from Toke City?

Haha...lolz

I'm not here to argue Shatter vs.Wax.

I thought I had clarified that with my last sentence.

I believe budder to be super intense and flavorful for about 3 days, then degrades rapidly due to air being incorporated into the resin, pulling in atmospheric contamination.

My post is referring to purging past a shatter into a stable Honeycomb wax...by removing the moisture.
Every single entry into the Secret Cup in the solvent category is most often wax, not shatter.

Believe me, just a week ago, I had the same exact opinion..
wax sucks

But, now that I'm actually purging into wax, my opinion has changed.
It is simply my opinion.

Happy Dabbing my friend, cheers.

 

[CBR420RR]

Sorry bro. I didn't know I was arguing. I thought you were looking for feedback. I was just saying that anything like comb/wax/butter will inherently degrade faster due to surface area. I picture a sphere of shatter. I see its outter surface being the area mainly damaged by outside air, and the stuff inside sealed in a form if "stasis". If I had the same diameter sphere, but it was comb, it would have alot more surface area, therefore degrading faster. That's all.

Your stuff is killer mang, don't get it twisted.

 

[Sirdabsalot462]

I love shatter too brutha..

Shatter lover here man..

 

[CBR420RR]

If wax held up like the shinies, I'd def smoke that everyday. It just sucks when it don't get you sliced anymore. Haha

 

[Sirdabsalot462]

And yes, I'm sorry brotha!!
I just automatically jump on the defensive, as I'm used to folks bashing wax on other forums.

I forum jump quite a bit, and forget that RIU is chill for the most part.

Peace my bro.
Happy dabbing, lets get high

 

[CBR420RR]

No worries my friend. I'm a wax lover too, bro. I just make it in small batches.

Heres what in smoking as we speak. It was made in an experimental PP chamber. It's exactly what you're talking about: purged into wax.

hell ya sir dabs!!! shit shimmers like good coke..... not that i know what fish scale looks like or anything.....

seriously SDA please teach me to make pretty product for the MMC's cus twitch copied a most beautiful pic. Teach me please oh master

Example of what not to do. Somehow some flakes made it past my filters! I was like WTF, did I even put a filter on end of the FN tube?
No worries, it's for me anyway. Everyone likes the shatter better than the purged cookies. I prefer crumbly madness, but hey, it's pretty.

Nice n yellow. Nice n yellow. Nice n yellow. Nice n yellow. ��

Thank you sunni!!!!!

 

[Sirdabsalot462]

seriously!!! Thank you for finally getting one of our favorite threads a Sticky!!!!!

Ole dabs kicked it off and the artists of extracts filled it up with inspirational pics.
Thank you to all that have added to this epic thread.

I'd like to get to about 1k pages...

Lets do work...

I want the RIU Hash/oil thread to be the best on the web!!

 

[WarMachine]

Well now that this thread is stickied,I think I should do a 20g nug run to celebrate of bho and maybe a 10g run of ISO lol

 

[Guzias1]

Yes!!! Big dabs all around, on the house!
you got 4:20 seconds to get here .

we've hit a nice milestone. Thanks sd
