Edible Hash Making and Grinder Cleaning 2-for-1 Tute

[Matanuska Thunder]

Cigiges soaked in bong water, never heard that before YUCK

 

I've smoked pipe gunk many times, even saved it 'just in case'...

Bong water, well I am a klutz, always knocking the bong over, so I gave up on bongs altogether

 

I was a daily grinder scrapper-er but just to get the extra trics off...

I tossed my old grinder before this one, didn't even bother to try and clean, well nothing more than scrapping with a spoon

 

NEVER again

Awesome tute Matanuska I'd love to try this except I don't have a broken grinder Is there any thing I could do not to damage my grinder if I tried this or would it be unusable?

[Matanuska Thunder]

Dear Not Broken-

 

I'd be worried about getting the water into the moving parts (near the blade).

I have not tried dried citric acid (that is without adding water) directly onto hash (resin, whatever) may work, but could corrode the machine.

 

I still have a bit of hash hanging around a seam, was thinking of using a paper towel soaked in citric acid/water, lay that on the stubborn parts, then (hopefully) remove less-stubborn hash with fingernails.

 

I haven't tried it but an idea none the less, can't see why you couldn't give that a go?

Dunno

Just doing a stoner thinking moment

Spot on timing for me Matti,

After stepping into the 21st, century 2 years ago I bought a coffee grinder which has recently died, I'm on it.

 

Thank you

[Matanuska Thunder]

about 2 years seems to be their life span...

you are very welcome!

 

Sharing is caring

Hey matti,

 

I know youre a scientist and all but this technique is insufficient. Might want to research the delta 9 isomer further .... With citric acid you're also fucking with fatty acids, lipids and the breakdown of plant matter ..... I would concieve of such extractions as producing very few mg's of cannabinoids per gram of product ... You would also want to basify it ... i havent read the whole tute but i presume you didnt suggest basifying ... Mull tin with citric acid = retarded. I know youre delving into basic kitchen chemistry and all but people want cannabinoids .... not potentially dangerous by-products. Alkane hydrocarbons can be used for an extraction you speak of but cannabis is fat-soluble ..... have you ever tried adding citric acid solution to oils ? Basic chemistry first year senior schooling.....

 

cheers'

Cannabis extraction with citric acid, lemon juice, vinegar etc are all well documented, a basic google search will reveal this.

 

But thanks for the scaremongering

Might want to study cannabinoid chemistry ...

Or you could explain what you know different? rather than come across like an omnipotent douch?

aaaaanyway..... sorry I'm late and back on track, great tute Matti or should that be madame Edit

Love your kitchen chemistry personally I'm yet to join the electric grinder crew but a few mates do so ill be passing on your info!

Gonna try using your technique on my little handheld grinder(plastic but with metal spikes), its caked!
