Need to make an oil

Hey, so we just found out a friend of a friend has been dying of cancer. I guess he's been living by himself and hasn't really been dealing with his illness, his cancer has now spread and he's considered terminal.

Well he's now back in civilization living with family and is now wanting to try and fight this. Apparently he was signed up to the MMPR and ordered some bullshit watered down oil from an LP.

Anyway I have a shit ton of trim I was going to make bubblehash with. But now I'm wanting to just turn it into an oil and give it to this guy so he can start saturating his body with cannabinoids.

What's the best way to do this, Everclear, Iso...something else?

Can't be BHO, I don't want to open blast and I don't have a vac oven.

Iso is easiest but I dont know how to purge it to medical grade

Which part of the country are you? Tinctures are an option.

Itsme.

BC, I'm thinking I need to get my hands on some Everclear. Anyone in Alberta feel like shipping me a bottle or two?

ever clear is a good bet.

If you can find it there's a company out of Quebec called Global, they make a 94% grain alcohol. If not Everclear is your next bet

So the only place to get Everclear is in Alberta, wtf. I'm assuming, I probably can't just call a liquor store over there and get them to ship me a cases, as this shit isn't even allowed to be sold here BC.

Do I really need to drive to Calgary just to pick up a case of booze...fuck that's going to suck.

That sucks. Can you get Bacardi 151 in the red bottles? Fairly common and not quite as strong but itll work and save you an out of province trip potentially

or you could just use 99% IPA and purge it...You'd be done already.
Takes half a day wash,filter and to boil down a pound.
yes...its safe, if done OUTSIDE!!! You'll need 500 mls of IPA per oz of herb to get 80%, at freezing temps.
do a second wash with 1/4 the amount to get the rest
hope that helps

Why at freezing temps?

Chlorophyll will super saturate the solution before the meds do.
this way it stays GOLD and you dont get any green.
washing any longer than passed 3 mins will only see the color change.
This way you end up with gold/Amber(depending on the age) instead of green.
Everything has to be frozen....IPA, herb, things you use.

I was also thinking I could use IPA, but I can't find any of the good shit 90-95%. I can only find the 70% shit at the local pharmacy.

I figured it would be easier to find some grain alcohol, I guess it's just as difficult.

That would work, just leaves more water to be boiled off

Wal Marts in house brand has a 91 and 99% IPA

have you looked at coconut oil for extraction?
i had the same failed search. apart from a trip to alberta; bacardi and iso were my options, so i went this route instead (sadly it didn't help)
never heard of IPA

IPA is isopropyl..spelling is wrong, but basically its rubbing alcohol. Isopropanol is just higher purity.

Is the other 30% really just water? I was worried that it had some other mystery shit in it.

Yea, I've already hooked him up with some coconut oil, and my mother in law has baked him a bunch of infused cookies and bars. He had basically wasted away, had zero appetite and was always sick. The cannabis has stimulated his appetite and he's actually gained some weight in the last month and a bit.

I was just wanting him to have a more concentrated option as well.

Oh and IPA and Iso are the same thing....edit....wait maybe not

Vegetable glycerin is an option, tinctures are great.
