I've decided to start this thread for various reasons, the first being to test out the new gallery posting tool.

This thread will take a while to form as I make various things and post them up but I'll keep putting the various methods and techniques in here so that they are all in one place. I'll mainly focus on the hashes, oils and jellies that I make and cure, but I'll also be including all the imports I come across as a comparison to show that YOU can make better products than even the most seasoned regional producer. B) Forget Afghani and Leb from the 70's, UK420 is where the best hash ever produced can be found.

Ever wondered how a certain hash or oil is made? Pose the question in this thread and when I have the trim I'll make it and show you how it's done and with my own tried and tested techniques. Feel free to add any additions or changes you would make, that's the idea. With a bit of luck we could come up with some great new ideas between us.

So first up I'll post a few pics of the types of products I'm going to be contending with. This is a sample of the imports I have in my stash at the moment. (check out the gallery posting method for the pics )

Wow, I wish I could get imports like that! Never mind, I shall keep an eye on this thread, perhaps I'll learn how to make my own... Nice one Grobag.

yummo hash there Gro

Will say this tho ,dont think it should be a 'competition' between import and home made, they both have their merits in their own right.

To true mate, but my point is, as you of all people should know, given the right strain of plants ANYONE can make anything.

Pfft says I to the imports, let's blow them out of the water shall we. (just for you FD mate )

The end result of OT1's breeding, Bish's growing and Grobag's oiling this batch:

This is how I made it, basically by the same method as in my sig but with unbubbled trim, just manicured then dried. Hopefully the titles/descriptions from my gallery should explain the pics and the method.


Ingredients and utensils


Near Zero Impurity Keen-Newport London Butane


Lot#5 trim and Air Bud


Setting up the coffee pot


seal the gaps and squirt in


Trim in Liquid Butane


Ban Marie style evaporation for speed One pyrex dish contains hot water from the tap, the other goes on top for vapping in.


My paper coffee filter made from a wire coat hanger and pegs


Plunge the coffee pot and second filter through the paper


Sit back and watch it vap


When done it will form a layer on the bottom This was extremely clear for oil.


Scrape it up with a new blade Mmmmmmm


I then scrape it into a wrap of plastic


bung it in the freezer before tacking into a lump


Frozen it's easier to tack into a lump

[grobag]

After freezing, tack it about torelease trapped bubbles


Lot#5 BHO

Tack it into a ball and let it cure. I'll post pics of cured oil at a later date to show the difference.
