Hash capsules. And I thought I’d found something easy….

I ran into yet another problem. Finally learned how to make bubble hash (still working out the kinks on the drying…to do it without either getting it stuck to whatever I’m trying to grate it or microplane it on…./air dry or in the freezer or refrigerator…those things I’m still wrestling with due to the higher temps & humidity here.

BUT, even if I can do that, I’ve got a larger problem. I have COPD, and the coughing has just gotten too bad when I smoke…at all. I use the bud for nausea and pain (helps some. I’ve planted a lot of strains that say they help pain, and I’ve yet to find one that really does…but helps me ’forget’ it a little , and use the hash to sleep. At any rate, it’s a medicine for me, and I really need it more than all the prescriptions I have put together.

I got a Volcano to ‘vape’ the smoke for bud and ‘soften’ it a little. Until I can fix the coughing from the hash, though, I’m still coughing at the first hit on it.

So, I decided to make hash caps. Silly me. I thought I could just decarb my chopped up bubble hash and put the chunks into some capsules..but NO. It has to be liquified. I’ve been back to You Tube and the forums looking once again….

So far, it’s looking like RSO may be the way to go as it seems easier, but more expensive with the Everclear. I also have some bubble hash left that I need to use, so I have to learn to make the bubble hash capsules anyway.

I’ve found 2 ’recipes’ on You Tube. One seems fairly good. It’s by Bubbleman. He uses Coconut Oil. But, more than half of what he uses is hash from dry ice and some bubblehash. But, I can’t find one with all bubble hash. I’m trying to find something to help me know what to do so I can figure dosing as well as making the stuff.

I’m spending so much time trying to find all this, that I figured it would have been faster to have posted the question in the first place. But, I’m good at doing things the hard way …

Now that I’ve almost written a book, I’ve actually gotten to my point… and, that is:

Is there any place I can find a good ‘recipe’ *in full* (at least past making the hash as I’ve already done that) to make hash caps. I’ve already ordered the capsules, coconut oil, lecithin, syringes (2 sizes since I wasn’t sure), silicone baking mat for decarbing the hash *the only video I found on decarbing hash, etc showed doing it on this*, and a cheap crock pot (not sure I’ll need it, but Bubbleman used one, So if I don’t, I’ll return i….trying to cover my bases).

Thanks again for your help. I can count on the friendly folks here .

Here’s my two cents (and it won’t be helpful to your question)

The last time I made my oil caps I decided they still were NOT strong enough. I made a good amount of bubble hash and decided to mix it with oil.

I couldn’t get them to “melt” l together so I turned up the heat a little. I finally got most of it to melt. Here’s the issue. When I started taking them I would wake up at 3am having to go to the bathroom. While standing there going I felt sweaty, dizzy and passed out. I didn’t think of the capsules being an issue. So the next day I took them again, same result.

i gave it a break and waited a week with no issues. The next weekend I took them again, and same thing. No longer taking them or making them.

My point is if you have any issues, stop immediately. If anything is off. I already have epilepsy so I think it was a partial seizure.

I’m sorry to hear you had that happen. I hadn’t heard of it before. Smoking the amount I’m smoking right now (approx .36-.38gms a night right before bed. I don’t smoke it any other time), I sleep until the alarm goes off. I haven’t done that since I got sick back in 1983! I always have gotten up at least once, and usually more to go to the bathroom. So, I’m concerned about dosing with capsules in the first place.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’ll sure keep it in mind. If it happens, I won’t try it a 2nd time. Hopefully it won’t.

Hope you can find something …especially if you’re looking for help with sleep. I know how that can be.

Here's a good recipe for dry sift caps..

im not having any issues with sleep. I was trying to make something edible I could keep with me and be more discreet. Good luck and I hope you don’t have any issues. Keep us updated here if you can.

Thanks. I’m going to try some dry sift next time i make hash …or RSO. Haven’t made up my mind yet. I just know it won’t be bubble hash. That is much more work than either of those other two!

thanks again!
