What would happen if i were to bubble hash it and then make iso from the hash? Thinking extra filtration along with sterilization from the iso.

if you do it right you can get a very high quality extract with the two processes. two processes is common. or even just rescreening with the bags.

Not sure why you say LOL dont do this to using a turkey baster. The steel turkey basters from bed bath and beyond work perfectly and the hole fits the large fitting on a vector can perfectly. The only downfall is it does not hold a lot of material. But if you only want to be doing small processes, this could work well for you. It worked well for me until I quickly wanted to be able to run bigger batches.

Most "PVC" plumbing pipes today are made of PP (polypopylene) This is also what coke bottles are made from (in my country anyways). As far as i could find out PP is safe with butane. I have stored fluent gas in a coke bottle for weeks without plastic getting unclear. I use a plumbing "PVC"-tube 1 inch with a cap in one end with 1 hole - and coffee filter in the other end.
I learned from this thread how important it is to grind the bud to get it packed right. I did a run earlier where i packed it too loose - couldn't understand why the yield was so low - did another run packing it better and this time i got the same amount as from first run. Now i pack it right in first run and gain a lot more. Now i guess i get about 10-12 % BHO.

Anyways - thanks for your tips to let me get this right. My christmas stash is no longer a big sealed jar with well cured Jack Herer - now it's a little tiny glass jar with yellow Jack budder - just smell so much like citrus - mmm

With that beard I'd hope it isnt you lol...........

Any personal concern, on your part, with the worm feces? Would you smoke it?

The ones I've seen are all polycarbonate. I have always been impressed by their solvent resistance. i have stored methylene chloride and xylenes - two rather aggressive solvents - in polycarbonate drink bottles. The solvents stayed clean, and the bottles didn't show any hazing or other signs of being affected.
In the USA the pipes in question are made of PVC, but it is not plasticized. PVC will be dissolved by xylenes, methylene chloride, acetone etc. but not the alkane hydrocarbons. cn

So you're saying PVC in the US is safe to use for bho?

 

[budlover13]

Exactly. Which is why i was asking about filtration/concentration.

 

[Josh3235]

I would definitely feel safe smoking the ISO if you extracted it twice. My friend does that sometimes with some of his bubble hash, except he uses BHO. But if you do good, Like Matt said, It can be very good quality.

 

[Finshaggy]

Do an ISO wash. Then Naptha, and throw away the dirty layer. You may have to get it into acetone before Naptha, but it will make an alkaloid extract.

I would like to see some facts as well. Some links, maybe some quotes from a professional. Seems like a crock of shit to me. Stainless or Glass ftw.

I wasn't doubting it, just wondering because I'm going to want to make some bho, and I need to know what to use

I was thinking glass, but that seems like it'd hurt if it exploded.

stainless steel turkey baster is the obvious best choice, $12. it won't explode or leech phalates into your extract. you can clean it and reuse it with out compromising the integrity.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280741205575&hlp=false <<<< $12 no joke

This is the way. Please don't use a fuggin coke bottle. Don't be a bhotard. Pics are not mine and are intended for educational purposes only.

that turkey baster at the bed bath and beyond here is 7$, and I dont use that long needle point to it. The vector tip fits perfectly into the hole at the top of the baster getting a good seal.

Unplasticized PVC, such as the white Schedule 40, should be entirely safe. My advice is to use only threaded fittings. The "blue glue" contains tetrahydrofuran among other things ... an aggressive and somewhat toxic solvent.

From the K-Mac Plastics Compatibility Chart, "type 1" (unplasticized) PVC is "recommended" for butane and hexanes, whereas "type 2" (clear, plasticized) PVC is Not Recommended. I used a homemade PVC pressure rig myself once with liquid HFC-134a (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane) at room temp and about 70 psi. Got nice "b"ho out of it!

Heh, whaddya know. I found my old rig in a "save from divorce" box. cn
Left branch with "big" ball valve: pressurized gas inlet.
Top branch with "small" ball valve: pressurized extract tap, connects to siphon tube which will have a bit of paper towel wired on as a filter for a run
Right branch: siphon tube extends into PVC pressure vessel.
Bottom branch: The Judge, with its own protective ball valve for pulling a vacuum prior to introducing the Working Fluid. c

Thanks. $7 for a stainless tube FTW

Don't be a bhotard. There isn't a lab in the world that uses PVC and solvents. Glass or Stainless.

sorry the camera man was all dabbed up and the video is all sidewards upsideway down. yeah, mad dabs. go in hd and really check this piece out tho.. sickkk..1:15 for the goods.
