| As the title says...this is a method of Qwik washing bud/leaf in isoprophyl alcohol to glean the trichomes and turn it into a smokable product. This method combines manual shaking and some planning ahead to ensure that the process is completed in ***UNDER ONE MINUTE*** The reasoning behind this is that the longer the iso stays in contact with the pot the more chlorophyll that is imparted into the final product. The more chlorophyll, the greener/darker the product and the greener the taste. When done correctly, Qwikwash iso oil will be *golden to reddish in color* These are the products/ingredients you will need: 1 large glass vessel w/lid 91% isoprophyl alcohol a piece of silkscreen or other FINE (60 micron or less) mesh a pyrex glass baking dish marijuana-the more trichomes present the more oil you will end up with Last edited by btdt; 08-26-2007 at 01:59 AM. | ||||||||

| Lay out ALL items neeed and do a quick rundown of the process BEFORE adding the alcohol to the marijuana! First....Place broken bud/ground marijuana in glass vessel Uncap all bottles of iso and have them ready to pour into glass vessel w/ marijuana QUICKLY pour in the alcohol. Use enough to COVER the marijuana in the vessel. Put the lid on. SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE!!!! 15 SECONDS ***ONLY** | ||||||||

| Now open the lid and place the screening/silkscreen over the opening..... (I couldn't take a pic of this, obviously) now turn the container upside down CAREFULLY over the pyrex baking dish...catching the liquid in the dish. Now pull the cotainer away from over the pyrex dish and try to catch the remaining pot in the screen so you can SQUEEZE the alcohol out that remains. Be CAREFUL not to drop any leaf matter in the liquid. (if you do you can strain it but it is an extra process) The oil on first appearance will be (or should be) gold to red in color.....

| I then place the pyrex dish on a heating pad/propogation mat and let the alcohol evaporate fully. This takes a few days usually. I do it outside on the patio and cover the mat/dish with a large tupperware to keep dirt/crap out. As it evaps it reddens....YUM!!! | ||||||||

| Once the alcohol evaps fully, I then place the dish in a double boiler and reheat the oil until it bubbles. I bubble it for 10 minutes or so to insure that I got the iso all out. If you like, a second wash with GRAIN Alcohol will cleanse the oil a bit further and will ensure that all of the iso is gone. What you SHOULD be left with is a gold to reddish (usually reddish) oil that is very strong in potency and in smokable intensity. Get GREEDY and this will put you on your KNEES in a cough fit. Be reserved and you will find a nice ride..fairly intense for some...and a taste that IS the essence of your buds. YUM. You WILL be spoiled!! Be forewarned!! One final CAUTION.....as with other extractions it is IMPERATIVE that you carry out all extracting OUTDOORS and AWAY FROM FLAME. 91% iso is HIGHLY FLAMMABLE and NO FLAME SHOULD BE USED IN THE EXTRACTION PROCESS!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! Be safe. Live to smoke a joint laced with hash oil tomorrow..... Last edited by btdt; 08-26-2007 at 02:01 AM. | ||||||||

| It's all about being QWIK, lj ian....that's for sure. The somewhat popular "blender" method takes too much time, IMO. It also cruches the bud up very finely..and that may allow contamination. I can make the same thing (black goo) by putting my weed in a Mason Jar with the iso and FORGETTING about it for 24 hours...then evap the alc. Gets ya stoned to the bone...but...um...you miss the REAL taste of the weed and it tastes green. Wheras black/green oil smells green,, red/gold oil done properly will have a somewhat "nutty" smell to it. The burn on this stuff is about as heavy-duty as pot-smoking gets... my wife says she gets "tunnelvision" from it and usually stays away! LOL hmm...wake and bake time. Oh baby! | ||||||||
