Best homemade shatter


Guest

Recommended Posts

Right guys so I qwiso a good way to make shatter .

 

I'm reletivly simple and have no fancy machines purge/vac so be easy with me.

 

Can qwiso be made into the shatter that can be vaped .

 

I read it needs to be winterized for health purposes is this set in stone?

 

I'm getting confused as a qwiso makes shatter and a longer exposure ends up making RSO

 

Any one to tell me in a bit shell what's the best way to make nice shatter .

You can make shatter with either.  Shatter is simply cannabis essential oil in carboxylic acid form.

How do you make shatter  from oil?

 

oil is a liquid substance, shatter is not?

 

Any links to how this is done, because I didn't know it was possible

In carboxylic acid form, it is a hard brittle resin at ambient.  After decarboxylation it loses viscosity and becomes more oil like.  

 

High terpenes and retained solvents will make it looser.  Pull and snap is more like taffy and typically shatter with high terpenes.

You don’t 

 

you can turn shatter to oil......but once  decarbonisation has taken place you can’t change it back ?????

I hadn't heard that definition before. Can I take it from this that it's impossible to make shatter using decarboxylated material?

 

E2A I see you answered that already, only really terpy decarboxylated material will be less brittle.

I must admit, I’m really confused by this.

I remove the waxy crap from my concentrates so where is the carboxylic acid coming in ?

We're talking about the THC carboxylic acid, as manufactured by the plant.

 

As opposed to decarboxylated delta 9 THC formed by heating the THC carboxylic acid.

 

Nothing to do with wax.

 

Does this help?

No....and I’m really not being difficult.

carboxylic acid is predominately the waxy crap that I remove from my purge (the white crap) 

the plant doesn’t produce THC....it produces THCv.....oxidation causes it to change to THC
