Abv extraction

[Shadooz]

I wanted to know how everyone deals with abv oil.

I read too many different timing from everyone, everywhere.
I'm talking about abv, no decarb flower.

I was eating my abv raw, but i collect enough, and get free low grad cbd flower, to make my own sativex©®™

First time i water cured abv, but only did one flush of only 2 hours.
Then 1 day of maceration with warm olive oil.

So i'm curious why and who need 1 week of water cure ?
But let macerate in oil only few minutes...

My oil is "golden", not black, maybe just because i'm not using black charcoal abv ?

It's hard to find timing test for oil.
Those were done with decarb flower, not abv.
For tincture 24h seems already enough, cause u must avoid fiber dissolution. Which happen even faster with abv compared to decarbed only bud.

For oil, i think the process may take more time, but fiber will stay intact longer.

I see @Tinman82 doing the opposite of me, long water cure and short maceration. Do u succeed to get potent oil with abv ?

Tincture really appeal me for being easier to concentrate, many abv batch in the same alcohol bath. Spyritus still being expensive here.. must be the same with everclear for americans.

@ginolicious Raw Abv, i like u
