budder...a BHO extract taken one step further.... i need more details!
For Informational Purposes Only
Here is a process that I have put togather at my medical friends house (I.E. Legally registered for THC holding...Processing is unclear) for producing some very high concentration THC product. Variations in procedures and materials will slightly alter the end product. This stuff is dangerous to produce for someone who cannot handle highly flammable materials and acids.
The first thing you need is Cannabis materials preferably not fan leaves, most preferably underbuds and clippings. One could hash out the material and start the chems there or extract the material with a room temperature pour through device. I am pretty sure a non polar solvent will perform much better then an alcohol. I have decided to start hashing the material inorder to reduce the handeling of solvents. Also, my preferred recipie uses Ethanol, Phosphoric acid, Toluene, and Ammonia. You will need to employ a reflux apperatus and a seperatory funnel. Be careful that you dont use tools that dissolve in these solvents or react with the acid. There are better recipies, but this is the most friendly one I could figure from my studies.
* Hash the bud
* Decarboxylize the THC-A in the hash by tightly rapping it in aluminum foil and heating it in the oven at 200 for a short time not to exceed 40 min. It you smell it take it out and put it in the freezer. Do not open the foil till it is cool.
* Dissolve the hash in +99% Ethanol using a pyrex container in the microwave (watch the boil rate cause you can waste a bunch of has in the boil over). Just enought to dissolve totally. The mix ratio is around 4-5g to 150ml EtOH. This is very unlikely to be a fire hazard if you watch what your doing and dont put metal in there. Be careful of fumes cause they build up...NO SPARKS
* Filter it into a reflux apperatus
* Add 50ml ~85% Phosphoric acid to the clean extract in the reflux apperatus
* Isomerize the CBD and possibly other cannabinoids by refluxing for around 30 mins. You will likely notice that some dark material dances around just below the surface with the dropping of the condensating EtOH.
* Mix an equal volume of Toluene into the now cooled, decarboxylized, isomerized.
* Add 1/4 the volume of Ammonia and aggitate. The Ammonia will react with the Phosphoric acid yielding the begnin salt Ammonium phosphate. Left over Ammonia will vaporize completly with the rest of the solvents.
* Seperate the now distinct Ethanolic ant Toluene layers keeping the Toluene layers. The Ethanolic left overs can be discarded.
* Wash the Toluene extract with distilled water 2-3 times.
* Dry the the Toluene off in a pyrex dish. Avoid fumes and sparks
With some refinement procedures before the isomerization procedure, one could produce a resin with some 90% THC's mostly Delta-9-THC. I do not think this is necessary as most materials that have much less concentrations are perfectly sufficient. But, if one doesnt want to have to smoke a whole bowl for relief. Make sure the Toluene is dried off as it produce alot of suit is you burn it. High THC products will naturally have a plastic like taste however.
as far as i no you need a good indica. and very purified Butane like Vector or Colbri for pure oil to work best. and this is a good time to use Buds and not trim.
actually i have had an almost pure sativa that budders up for me easily. and the goodclean butane wont make it budder more easily, but you are correct in advising to use buds, as trim doesnt budder well at all typically.
im not sure how this process makes the oil more potent but it does
