hi and :welcome: this may well take the form of a tutorial but by no means should you follow an eejit.
a full coshhh assesment has been carried out.steel toe cap sandals,safety squints and dear old mother is on speed dial.
iso (isopropanol alcohol) is no good,dont ever drink it.we can get that easy and cheapish to 99.9% but that is for iso hash not for a tincture.
need drink everyclear is as rare as hens teeth here (uk) found half a bottle on ebay £75 they can piss off.
so found thedrinkshop on tinternet £50 for this stuff

Will they decarb in the jars? If so that's a good way, I put my glass pan in a turkey bag and fold it under. That works good not much smell if any. I thought of using the jars but was afraid they might break if pressure got to high. Then again I guess they are boiled.

remember though...they are boiled with the lids off!!
 
in theory yes.a pressure change was a concern to me,but as no steam/gas will be coming off the buds there shouldnt be much if any of a pressure change.i have seen videos of folks jerry rigging a mason jar into a vac chamber pulling nearly 29hg,as temps will be low so will any pressure,im sure to be well within the limits.
john befelo has lots of vids on all sorts a smart cookie,its just that when he starts to talk i fall asleep.

some geezer

i cant decarb like the way i did last time or il be handing myself in at the cop shop before they come get me.

check the temps 250f as the bud was in a jar i thought it may take an extra min or two to warm up so gave it 25mins.
not completely smell proof,but very little smell and kept well inside of the kitchen,no fans didnt want the back garden reaking either.no shitting of pants this time.
let to cool down gave the buds a bit of a scrunch up and added 375ml of booze from the freezer.big shake and back in the freezer.
:pighug:
edit...
a good 30sec shake every 8-12 hours then back in the freezer.

Have to ask, why do we need to shake so much? Mine is only like 30g's in a 32oz jar ground to about dust lol. I know you want as much to come off in alcohol, but if it sit for 3 months do I really need to shake twice a day. The more I shake it the more stuff gets stuck to the sides lol. If you shook well at the end of that time wouldn't it all come off anyway? Not hatin' just sayin', if it works go and do it. I think I'm gonna let mine chill in the deep chill and see how strong it gets. If I can simplify it in anyway I will. More of remembering to do it being the problem but here is a chance to see if it is a factor. I don't think it will be, now if it wasn't ground up I think that would make a big difference.
