Sure I can take picture of the finished oil when I get to the kitchen; but they are in sticky tub so I got to find something to shine light through to see the color.

mounds of oil just look black in small containers.
cool thanks Blu,id like to see pictures too so I can get a good idea on what to expect.

After spilling oil all over the place and making a mess I remembered I have a x10 eyeglass for trichome hunting.

But as requested: (labeled from left to right)

"Evening Drank"

"Doggy Poo"

Its hard to capture the color in the jar but the 1st one is defiantly lighter and more golden then the second. the third is all kinds of funky lol. Hope that helps!

Better golden color, its in a purple/black jar >.<.

They are all thick smoke that is smooth they don't really taste like flowers galore. The doggy poo smells worse then it tastes, but still like cannabis. As for the rest; you know your smoking some dank cannabis extract. As long as you purge it well you wont taste any chem and have little - no burn in your throat. If eaten Cannabis is a spice and concentrate is quite spicy.

Not to bang Short washes. They are good too, I'm not saying mine is best just offering influence. Consider the freeze, the efficiency, the product. Many things go into getting it just right under any condition. I just have a hard time washing it once for 10 seconds and throwing it away. I tried to make eatables with the leftovers; it just doesn't work with my stomach.

Yeah me too, I usually do one 30 second aggitation and it comes out pretty well but I always feel like there could be more.. I guess I can just try with one oz of shake and seeing how much the 2nd wash will get.

What kind of material did you use BluJay? You got about a 10% return correct? I just don't understand how some people are getting 15% and even 20%..

I get about 10-12% with my short wash about 15-20 with my long..but I don't use trim...looks good but honestly a little dark and green for my taste.. when smeared it should be golden amber and when balled it should look like an amber jelly been....but your method is probly more efficient

I always use flowers, to get bigger yields you need to really search out a strain that is littered with trichs. Get an eyeglass and go to a farmers market and look for the best bud then strike the best deal.

This batch was a "bottom shelf" material. It was all flowers but included some stems and leaves. A patient asked me to turn it around for him since it was nearly un-smokeable. Most of the identifiable trichs were on the inside of the flowers so it being handled so much lowered the yield.

So 226.76g / 23g = 10.14% yep that's it.

Last batch was 56g and came out with 10g so was about 17.85% yield. I've done it with sugar trim before and it comes out just as potent but more contaminated. Leaves are too thin and breakdown into dust fast and you cant filter that out very quickly and without the right micron its not coming out.
