I wanna look into chloroform or ether.
I hear those are champ.
Acetone or Butane seem to be good as they're readily availible, some countries have drug watches (meth, I'd assume) so butane can be hard to find. Acetone is cheaper than butane or hexane (at least where I live) so that may be what I decide to use.
Iso alcohol is gross for making hash with, I only do it when I'm dry and hurting for smoke.

well
iso can be 99%+ alcohol
you can also get reagent grade ethanol thats 99%+
usually id compare them at 91 or 99% iso to 95.4% ethanol.
and id say the ethanol is a better solvement if your using 95% ethanol vs iso i've heard the final product will taste less harsh. Iso is notorious for making harsh tasting nasty ass hash. unless your a shiner or live in texas or some place 95% ethanol would be kinda expensive.
butane, hexane, acetone are readily availble most places and definately are superior to iso.

acetone here is sooooo much cheaper here.
does the water even matter? I mean like shit people water cure their buds, the acetone extracts the good stuff still and you just evaporate everything anyways.
personal preference excluding isopropal* isopropal hash is truely a sin... I've done it but all I could get was isopropal from a 24hour drug store and I wanted to get some smoke asap.

removing water is also more work
I guess it's just a toss up
Would I rather remove some of the water from this acetone or would I rather wait longer?
Personally I'd wait longer because I'd probably not be in any sort of rush.

glass or metal is usually a safe bet.
stainless steel is fine for almost everything... generally speaking it's more chemical resistant than glass
plastic id be so iffy on for anything, even 'tane extractions and shit.

that's true.
I personally like to experiment a lot.
I love learning and making my friends ingest possibly cancer causing substances

Acetone is fine if used correctly.
However if you used a unknown solvent in a plastic container without research into if it's safe or not it could possibly have carcinogens.

I talked to a grower friend of mine who's been making tons of hash (most of what he grows turns into hash) and said chloroform is his favorite solvent.
and woot! now I know where to find chloroform

I'm not from the states but it's supposed to be readily availible basically anywhere in the world. Just tell them it's for something other than the use of making drugs.

It's used in meth making, and to put people to sleep. If it's not watched, it should be. But I'm pretty sure it is. Plus, it's kinda dangerous.
Not really dangerous. It can be dangerous if heated up rapidily or inhaled in excess (it was used as a anestetic until it murked some people)
I actually just bought 5gals of it without even showing ID.

Well 5gals is 20 000ml if I don't want to recycle it when I use some via distillation it won't last super super long.. A lot of my friends want me to do codeine extractions and I wanna extract mescaline, dmt, ect.
Codeine extractions will be frequent as fuck though probably lose a half litre a day doing those.

Yeah I heard if you do a good extract and clean up your product the high is more pleasant than drinking down than the effects of that slime tea... Probably stores a lot better too.

yeah but how convient is it having a bunch of dried cacti (not peyote) if you had slime tea or extracted mescaline you can dose on the fly.
(I was comparing shelf life of extracted mescaline to cacti slime)

I got a powder pal with my scale
gelcaps areeee ezpz I made 132 gel caps and weighed them in around an hour.
I've heard of people making ayahuasca and mescaline cacti slime and drying out the liquid and putting it in gel caps too... sounds interesting :P

a lot better than those little baggies or baloons
I think a lot of addicts would prefer the little wax baggies though.
