Making BHO with traditional hashes. . .

Hi all, since about last July I started making my own BHO (which I fucking love!!), however recently, my supply has dwindled and with skunk being sooo ridiculously overpriced here making my own BHO out of grass is simply not an option.
However, I have recently been able to get some okay quality pollen, like Moroccan hash style stuff. Now obviously it is much more dense than traditional buds so I would need several ounces to fill an extractor but besides that I reckon it should work? I'd love to see what the end result would be like. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone here had ever tried such a thing.

I mean like this kinda' hash, mine isnt as good as this though.

I would imagine the yield will be ridiculously high compared to using bud. I hope you try, and if you do, please post some results!

I have had great success cutting my flowers with ground up bubble hash. Yield percentages are definitely increased.
I can't say I have ever blasted straight hash. Please let us know if you do! I'm certainly interested in possible results.

If you do do this, make sure to break it up well to avoid blowbacks. My concern is it will be too dense for the butane to make it through. Perhaps the thermos method would be better suited for pressed hash?

I am unfamiliar with the thermos method, Say I used a sort of cheese grater to crumble it? I reckon butane would pass through.
I was thinking, it seems doubtful that an ounce of this would fill my extractor and I wouldn't want to start with more. Anyone know if I can use something like organic cotton to fill the space? I have a jar containing a mixture of ABV/weed that I've already run but I'd rather not mix it, I'd like to see that pure hashyness extracted. Any ideas for safe filler? Or can I run a half empty extractor?

I remember reading someone used glass marbles as filler material. Wish I could find the quote. It's somewhere in this forum.

a truely excellent suggestion! Thank you!

i saw the glass marble tip somewhere on here too. I second that idea. Have never tried though...

Might also consider ISO instead of butane. Starting off with hash, most of the things that can ruin qwiso aren't there to begin with. Should be able to just drop it in for a few minutes and then evaporate.

warm the alcohol and the hash will completely dissolve into it. then winterize and filter out the waxes.

Is winterizing the same as freezing?

when you put it in the freezer, it won't freeze, but it will become cloudy/milky. what filters out will be whitish leaving you with amber coloured alcohol, ready for evap.

so you freeze the alc/bud mixture, then filter it while cold or?

Yes the cold makes the waxes coagulate to be filtered out.

ohhhhhh man im gonna make some fire poop hash now that i learnt this

yes. only we were talking about hash or keif, not bud. Never warm alcohol extract bud or you end up with all the chlorophyll in your concentrate.
