Extraction Tincture with vodka

[Hybrid]

So even it’s just leaves and stem it gave a good high, that’s exciting. How many grams did that 1ml extraxtion give you, approx 0,1 gram? And how strong vodka did you use?

Hi Hybrid
I used a 40% vodka and 25 gram of steam and sugar leafs.

Had to use the calculator 25 grams divided in 200ml are 0,125 grams per 1ml

Ive been taking green dragon for a few years now, but can't compare to a cold extract. I can say though that 195 and 151 everclear Green Dragon is very potent stuff, with a 3.5ml dose lasting 7-8 hours. Its easily taken in a half glass of water, then chase with a glass of water as it is pretty nasty, and i find taking tincture Really dehydrates me.

Hi my friend
Thanks for sharing your experience. I start to make a cold extraction in the next days to compare it with the hot extraction.
I let you know my experience.
Have a nice day

Hi Friends
I do a new test.
I used flowers of my marocco rif mountain.
I used vodka that was stored in the freezer.

First I decrab the material.

Then I put it in the ice cold vodka.

Shaked every ten minutes for one minute (for one our)

Put all in coffee filter to split the material from the vodka.

Then I put it in a hot water bath to evaporate the alcohol.

The tincture is not so dark like the other I make.

I tested the taste I think it's better then the darker one .

To the effect I will post later or tomorrow because I started smoking early the day.

@Root
If iam right there is not so much clorophyle inside. What do you think is it a cleaner tincture?

@tobe, sounds like you made a good tincture.

Less chlorophyll pick-up will result in a cleaner/better tasting tincture.

Hi root
I will try more tests because I want to find the best cleanest way to make a good medicine.

A other question
If I use a CBD strain and don't decrab should I have a CBD tincture without thc am I right?
I asked it because I want a medicine that don't make you high and you can drive car.

ps. next year I start a serious CBD breeding project with a test kit.

You want freeze alcohol and flowers overnight. Then shake for max. 3 minutes. Also can do second wash.

In this case, cleaner and better tasting probably means much weaker.
Depending on the %ethanol of the vodka, room temperature soaks probably need several days to extract very much thc. (190 proof is much quicker)
Freezer cold vodka won't pick up much.
Don't toss the strained out sludge. It might contain most of the original medicine, and you might be able to make edibles out of it, or more long soak tincture.
