Porcelain pot
or heat resistant pyrex bowl, one which is suitable for use in the oven.
cast iron skillet
(frying pan larger than the porcelin pot)
Coffee filters
(the re-usable gold filters work very well as well, these can be bought
at supermarkets)
2 bowls
isopropyl alcohol
(commonly available at pharmacies, look for alcohol that is 99% pure, denatured
alcohol also works well, sometimes ispopropyl alcohol is called rubbing
alcohol)
Take 1 coffee
filter, and place your marijuana in it. Pour the alcohol over the marijuana
in the coffee filter so that the alcohol drains into one of the bowls.
Squeeze every bit of the alcohol from the marijuana into the bowl.
Now transfer
the same marijuana into a clean coffee filter, and use the same alcohol
to pour over it again into the second bowl.
Keep repeating
this over and over again. If you have a problem with the coffee filters
breaking apart while you are squeezing the marijuana, use 2 or 3 coffee
filters at a time. The alcohol will turn green.
Next, take the
iron skillet set it on the stove, and put the porcelain pot into the skillet.
Fill the skillet with water.
Alcohol is
extrememly flamable. Don't be stupid, be CAREFUL!
Do not cook
the alcohol over the open flame. The water in the skillet assists in
preventing the alcohol from getting too hot and helps to prevent the alcohol
from igniting on fire.
Ensure your
kitchen has good ventelation. Use the stove fan and other fans to move
the air around in order to prevent fumes from gathering in one place and
igniting.
Let the alcohol
in the porcelain pot in the skillet simmer on "LOW". Make sure the
skillet remains full of water. The alcohol will evaporate very very quickly.
Make sure you do not let it evaporate too quickly or burn the alcohol.
Once all the
alcohol has been evaporated off, you will be left with hash oil. Take a
razor blade and scrape it up and smoke it.
