Medicinal Cannabis Oil

Smoking marijuana oil has become a very popular method for medicinal cannabis ingestion. Some have suggested that certain variations of the oil have strong cancer killing properties. For those that don't have marijuana oil available for purchase at a dispensary, this guide will provide an easy method to prepare  iso-hash oil one variety of cannabis oil and was written for hypothetical purposes.

You Will Need:

2 Pyrex Trays of different sizes                                             1 sharp knife

1 bottle of 91 or 99% Isopropyl Alcohol ( I prefer 99%)             2 sealable mason jar

1  Filter Paper                                                                        1 Rubber  Band

Note: This procedure requires a well ventilated area away from flames and sparks. Isopropyl Alcohol is flammable. 

Step #1:

Grind your desired quantity of buds or clippings finely and put them in the mason jar.

Step #2: 

Pour the isopropyl alcohol into the jar so that the liquid is level with the plant matter. 

Step #3:

Seal the jar and shake vigorously for 20 seconds then quickly filter the liquid into the other mason jar, leaving the plant matter behind. Seal the original jar containing  the plant matter. ( It can be used for a second and 3rd wash) 

Step #4:

Boil water in a different room then pour boiling water in the larger of the 2 pyrex trays to about the half way point. 

Step #5: 

Pour the liquid you filtered from the first wash into the smaller of the two pyrex trays. Rest the smaller tray gently on top of the larger, water filled tray.

Step #6: 

Occasionally replace the water in the larger tray to speed up the process. 

Step #7:

Once all the alcohol has evaporated you can use a sharp blade to remove the oil and place it in your desired glass container. Evaporation should take about 30 minutes, perhaps longer depending on the volume and the % alcohol you used. ( 99% evaporates faster than 91%) 

I recommend manipulating the oil while heated in the pyrex tray to increase the viscosity of this hard to manipulate oil. You may choose to expose the oil to air for as long as 24 hours to ensure all the alcohol has evaporated, although this most likely won't be necessary. 

You can repeat the procedure using the same plant matter left in the first mason jar, although the product won't be as pure. 

I hope this guide helps many with their medical needs, although this should only be looked at as a theoretical proposal and should only be conducted under legal circumstances with additional research.
