Hi - the Slug looked to manual and complex for me....I’m just not a torch guy since I almost burnt down the house in early 80’s (and no, we won’t speak if that ! Ha ha).@Shredder
Taking one cap for me is fine I can go about my day and achieve what is needed
I have a different tolerance to you obviously and medicate so yer - I am not sitting around sweating all day......... not sure of the connotations there in a vaping site...
Butane is not rated by me even in a lab
That has leftovers and is not something I want near my weed
At home it is definitely not a good idea as the gas is even more explosive than alcohols can be
If you have a lab there are soooo many better ways to process weed rosin for example....and others....so I do not like butane there either even with vacuums etc
I do think I am using RSO incorrectly as it may not be the rick simpson exactly......
i do an iso or ethanol (now I have a still) wash
2 - 3 washes mixing for around 20 odd minutes each time straining in between
I have been around weed since I was a kid (am not a young man these days either) and watched many processes and am learning the names people these days use for different things
I used RSO as I know it is an alcohol based wash
Using a still will not blow up if you are not ignorant and watch what you are doing- I am not sure that hillbilly alcoholics should be any more suited to using stills then stoners yet forums and knowledge is shared and people do it
Using a still also prevents the gas in the air for 90% of process so prevents explosions from sparks
You can also buy 4-5 L air stills now that are electric and completely contained and pretty idiot proof that run on your kitchen bench
As with weed the alcohol home brew tech has changed too
Only need to have burn off in open air in final part for short time now
I have also in the past seen the runny oil that you speak of and can tell it has not been boiled off and decarbed properly....both dangerous and less potent
If you know what you are doing though it is easy to do properly
I get the idea of not recommending dangerous thing to people although I was not doing so as much as sharing experience of what works well and most effective - .1 ml would maybe do you if you have a light tolerance......Still best way to check dosage and spread material out over your needs....actually more exact than edibles often are due to baking being its own science...
You could take one cap in the morning and be set to work all day happy yet functioning fully
Ppl also mix with coconut oil and then cap them if they have low tolerances
I also wasn't actually trying to give a tute here on rso just say it is a good way to get most out of material and check doses exactly
I think if you can find other concentrates at such ease that you can use them in edibles you are in a better spot than me atm....
The other reason alcohol washed oil whatever name - hash oil we always called it - is good is that it can be made from leaf or pucks or avb - I do not use avb for butter either as it does not taste as good, it goes in my oil washes
I use leaf or trim or shake or pucks or sometimes bud....or the wet left over material from bubble hash
@Baron23 nice squish results :)
I have been playing with my new slug and getting a few different results, but it seems to be going okay atm.....playing with my hair straightener and vice too at same time
I have no pics I am sorry as I dabbed all the goodies immediately in my quartzbanger and am currently sitting nicely :)
Still saving for a dabpress.....
Have you also looked at rosinpressny.com ? My friend got one of their presses and seems to be getting good results. I haven’t seen it in person yet.
Cheers
