That's how I made a batch of dabs with a bottle of 99.9 iso and buds freezing both 24 hrs then shacking 60 sec strained pyrex put heat fan evaporated off till black goo. Was strong and tasted good made 5 grams. But wasn't like BHO when you dabbed it all there was crap left over in puck. Like a ball of resin you scrape from a bowl.

If it left residue you didn’t filter it well enough before the evap stage. It’s best to filter the alcohol through a couple coffee filters to remove any trichome remnants. When done properly alcohol hash can be just as clean as bho.

That jar is nice that is final product using ISO. Im new I smoke and vape grow few years but buddies grow for decades but never made anything. I know that jar was cooked down but if you kept going wouldn't it turn to dabs. I just thought since iso isn't drinkable nor is the grain im using but can if diluted. Isn't there iso still in there.

So when I'm done shacking and filter through cheesecloth filter one more time with coffee filter then evaporate.

if you fully evap the iso you can add back a small amount of drinkable alcohol to turn the extraction into a tincture.

Yep. I usually put it back in the freezer for a couple hours before the final filter process as well to keep the fats and lipids as cold as possible to filter as much out as possible.
I’ve got a tutorial post linked in my signature line at the bottom of my post for my whole process. The more your refine the process the better the results turn out. If you evap without heat by just using air flow you will retain the most terpenes and flavonoids for the best flavor and entourage effects.

When you fully EVAP the iso it's will be that hash then adding what like 2 ounces of anything like vodka to turn it back to liquid and pour into dropper bottles. One dropper full think will be good to use. Got good tolerance

You still want to use the highest proof alcohol you can to fully dissolve the hash and not waste any. I’ve done it with 100 proof vodka and it worked well.
As far as quantity of alcohol to add back that is what determines dosage and it will depend on the potency of the extraction you preform and your tolerance level. Some people might make it stronger or weaker to be able to dose differently. How much your dropper holds will also change the dose.
I was mixing up some vials of liquid LSD a few years ago and quickly found out that different droppers hold different amounts and make different sized droplets. This totally changing the dosage. The same thing applies with tinctures.

Brother great info on your exact process. That final product looked as good as butane oil that golden color didn't think possible way I was doing. I kept getting black taffy like. It's definitely that second strain and no heat EVAP. Will be doing soon. What really got me was the strain you used Cinderella 99 I never heard off till my good friend told me she won first place best strain 20 years ago harvest fest. Then guy I know goes buys seeds of Jack herer and mimosa and says I saw some seed called Cinderella 99 I was like you should of called me I would of told you to get some. Just crazy coincidences

Man wish I knew you back when I tripped we would throw a tab or two in a bottle and drink. I eat Five strip double dipped just blotter but WOW. Me and buddies eye literally got huge pupils within seconds of touching tongue. That was a little to much that trip lol. But yea I'm using a left over dropper from dispensary relief drops.

It should be usable just like that. The extract will dissolve right into the alcohol.
Really if you are wanting a tincture as the end product you don’t have to worry about the quick wash or golden color. That is more of a benefit for smokeable Extracts. Having chlorophyll in the tincture wouldn’t hurt anything much and some would say having more plant compounds is more medicinal.

Right thanks for me bothering you over and over I only got two zips to play with so can't experiment like I could if I had a harvest this year.

not a bother at all I’m always glad to help folks figure things out when I can. That’s the whole point of this site.

After evaporation I stuck it in the oven @ 240deg F until there wasn't the slightest "sharp" smell to it & the bubbling had just about stopped (decarb) and yes, you can dab it.

And guy was talked to said to just add high proof vodka 100 to the dabs like 2 ounces of liquid then will turn back to a drinkable tincture.
