Making a Resin Extract

Before you begin this process, please read through all the steps and get all your materials and equipment prepared. You can expect to get approximately 100 to 200 mL of resin from a gallon of tincture, depending on whether you use trim or flowers, how resinous they are, and how far down you evaporate.

1. Weigh the plant material to be used (for dosage calculation).

2. Decarboxylate.

3. Make a tincture in your botanical extractor or the traditional way.

4. Strain with large strainer.

5. Strain through paper coffee filter (an important step!).

6. Do this next step outside! Place strained tincture in a rice cooker with the lid off or in a waterbath in a crock pot. Alcohol is extremely volatile. Do not breathe the vapor. Aim a fan over the cooker to allow good air flow. Allow the alcohol and water to evaporate off (this usually takes an hour or less). When the liquid is reduced and starts to thicken, do not walk away. Periodically remove the container from the heat source and swirl the ingredients, being careful to not inhale the vapor. Bubbles will get smaller as the process comes to a completion. Remove from heat source and keep swirling. CAUTION: Alcohol is extremely volatile and boils at a lower temperature than water: 173°F (78°C). This means the alcohol will boil off first. I recommend adding a few drops of water to your mixture as the alcohol is boiling off to protect the resin from scorching during the final evaporation. Be sure you do this procedure outside where there is plenty of ventilation. Good ventilation and lack of an open flame (that’s why we use an electric burner or rice cooker) prevent the alcohol vapor from igniting. Even if you are outside, and the wind isn’t moving the vapor away from your pot, you still risk ignition. Good ventilation also protects you from inhaling the fumes.
