Interesting, I could go get a can of this right now and try it on my grinder and shake I've got lying around. Hell if I got .5g's then it'll be worth it especially if I learn something. Nice post!

No problem man!  Just remember that smaller amounts of material require smaller amounts of hexane.  Also, even though you mentioned it already, don't expect huge yields from shake and grinder left overs.  Depending on your amounts even .5 gms might be a little high.

Wow!  That sounds way to easy. There is nothing dangerous about hexane?

i used to make this stuff all the time with bunk ass ditch weed and used to sell my oils for 50 bux a gram. not many people bought it unless they had smoked oils before but i loved having it around, especially mixing it with different kinds of weed. my screening process was much different, i forcefully pulled the hexane through a fine reusable coffee filter (with a vaccume and a modified pickle jar lid) that i aquired from an expensive coffee machine that had broke. i used the high quality hexane, the stuff on the link somewhere in this thread. it was always golden delight!!!!!!! looked smelled and smoked amazingly. no nasty tastes, just pure oil. and u can do this with ANY kind of female resinous plant. like i said, some good old bunk ass weed can be turned into  weeks worth of hash. you can pick up a few garbage bags full and still have plenty left at the source to do it a few times. i always dried the fuck out of it before i made it though

and by the way, the only reason i thought of using hexane years ago was because they extract soy bean oil with it, and a very curious article concerning the ability to aquire hexane. i tried it and the first time was marvelous compared to using butane, i would have to say its much less of a rushed way of doing things as compared to butane, you cannot get frozen by hexane, and if you do take your time, you could make a very nice distillery for the recycling of hexane.. i may be doing this come fall season with some of my outdoor crop. ive made this oil before with amazing results. No doubt this is the way to harvest your oils

Sweet!  Could you use mushies in place of the trim?  Would that work somehow?  LMAO

Like with almost any solvent you use to do extractions, hexane is extremely flammable.  This is not a process you want to do around any open flames or sources of ignition.  Don't go taking a bath in the stuff either or spend time huffing the fumes that come off the jar, that won't leave you feeling too pretty afterward.

ANY solvent you work with has inherent dangers, you should handle all chemicals appropriately and with caution.  This process is more safe then others, but that doesn't mean the chemical itself is not dangerous.

well said coda. also i meant as for the process, you can do it with any resinous female weed plant. seeded or not, it turns out to be some nice oil. ive had nothing but good experience with it.

i am planning on possibly doing a hexane pull this weekend, and have a quick question.  if the oil is warm enough, is the viscosity still too great to transfer with, say, a Pasteur pipette?  i may possibly rotovap the hexane to finish the process in minutes, and am wondering about the possibility of removing the oil from something like a round bottom flask.

Ha! I was just thinking about how I could use my rotovap to speed the process along but to no avail. Besides redissolving the oil, defeating the purpose, I think you are going to be out of luck as it is extremely viscous (much more than molasses). I don't know what model rotovap you have but mine uses a 500ml round bottom and short of breaking it I can't see any way to get the oil out. When I extract with butane I just do my evaporation in the final container, saves me a lot of headache and with butane I can have a smokable product in an half hour because of how fast it evaporates.

hmmm.... that's what i was afraid of.

i suppose one could rotovap down most, if not all, of the hexane, and then redissolve in a much smaller amount to transfer the oil out into a more suitable evaporation dish.  this would definitely speed up the evaporation process significantly, i know that i could do something like a liter of hexane in under an hour with the rotovap, not to mention capturing and recycling it.

Hmmm, depending on the amount you were working with and the type of glass you use, a butane torch + a steady hand + a collection plate might = a way to collect.  Heat makes the oil less viscous and is my primary method for transferring the oil from the pin to the bowl.  However too high a temp will begin the vaporization process and you'll lose some product.  It's also possible an extremely hot, IE close to boiling, water bath could loosen the material enough to be transferred.

Any residual oil could then be cleaned up with some extra solvent and some more time.  While the use of a rotavap is definitely an awesome idea, it doesn't seem as practical as evaporating from your collection plate (although it's most likely a hell of a lot safer)

Note: since it's been a while since your last post, did you have any success?

well, it turns out the person with a large amount of trim and already gone through it for ice hash :mad2:

i just like the rotovap idea for it's speed, ease, and re-capture of the hexane for repeat use.  hopefully i'll be able to try it out soon.  i'll make sure to post my results here and let you guys know.  i'm thinking i will get the volume of the hexane down to a very small amount, just enough to keep the oils soluble and avoid the viscosity, and then transfer this right out into a collection plate, and evap from there, maybe on a warm hot plate.

just used this method with actual bud. Much less residual taste than butane but turned out greenish. I think i like this method more, but I'd like to get some pure N-Hexane next time. Still very fucking potent.

How long did you soak for?  I'm fairly convinced the 8 hrs I put mine through is waaaay to long.  I was just following directions from someone else, I think you could get away with a 2-4 hour soak and still pull in quality yields with little to no chlorophyll. 

Hit up a chemical supply store for pure hexane, like mentioned already, it's not illegal requires no permits to obtain and is readily available.  Just dress nice, pay in cash, and you won't be questioned.  If anything say you're a electronics hobbyist and you're repairing some old circuit boards or something along those lines.

i soaked for 30 minutes. Worked fine. Still a lot greener than butane, but i had the QD shit, not pure.
