Moroccan Hash Thread
Re: Moroccan Hash Thread
Google..Kenneth 'K" Morrow founder of Trichome Tecnologies,Handbook of essential oils. He is working on a machine called a terpene isolater to help cocentrate makers. I read one of his articles about adding food terpetenes to weed for flavour .Holy water is big here….google it
I know most terpenes are lost through evaporation ,growers here started using freash weed couple years ago for BHO,s. More because they didn,t have room to dry clippings first before making it . This is what they call live resin,they found when tested it had high terpentenes level. The Dispenserie I use has twenty different concentre company,s ,some from BC and some I suspect are being shipped in from US

@.Ohmf: Only have access to the abstract and don't want to use log in for such articles (activity log() but judging from this I think your theory is dead, especially since they s as you pointed out claim to provide evidence f photo- catalytic conversion and not just point to this as a hypothetical cause, peer-review s in such serious journals usually catch such postulates if@they are not supported by the paper...
@macky: it seems that Mr. K there is also quite savvy when it comes to marketing, adding a cold trap to any a vacuum pump is certainly not a revolutionary new idea, but inventing a terpene isolator, that sounds wicked

It still doesn't bloody explain why it's possible to expunge that hashy taste from bubble-hash/dry-sift through heat/pressure though?
You seem like the person to answer this question in detail Mr Chemist

Re: Moroccan Hash Thread
That be the beauty of science and a questioning approach: when one thesis falls another can come along to take its place, and we are all the merrier for this new challenge and chance at discovery!
The abstract mentions nothing specific as to the volatility of hashishene versus other ‘noids and terps, so conceivably there could be enough of a difference in the melting point of these for the hashishene to be retained at low temperature hash rosin squeezes (off course assuming that the terps and ‘noids that hold the flower flavor has significantly lower melting points). How low do you go in temp when pressing those ice’s?
On the point that the typical “hashy taste” might be more than (if you allow us to paraphrase a bit) “just” hashishene there might be a lot of merit to this. Especially since this “hashy flavor” we discuss as if it is a well-defined and understood standard flavor is (at least the way we experience it) at least somewhat complex and not at all “mono-chromatic” or one-sided enough to just attribute it to one terpene.
Interesting stuff to say the least, would be nice to delve a bit more into the chemistry of terpenes, but knowing a bit about organic chemistry is enough to know that such matters are quite complex and takes a wee time to get proper into. Would be nice with a properly trained chemist to give us the essentials.

Re: Moroccan Hash Thread
Maryjanes diary.com has lots of articles on this subject,
reading
Read article on a terpentne only found in jack harr and jack crosses ,this I think may explain why Amniesia has changed so much last few years .Less jack and more skunk in crosses to speed up flower time. There,s Amniesia and then there's Amniesia haze

I love it when you guys talk dirty.

What a long strange trip it is.
