Is it just me or does farmer Bob remind me of Brando's character from Apocalypse Now

 

[scinerd3000]

look up the recipe for "brain death"

 

[scinerd3000]

brain death history

recipe for it

special hops obviously reffers to ganja

take a look because im seriously considering this route. barley wine gets up to pretty high alcohol limits and if i use wlp099 super high alcohol yeast it could be interesting

Wow, your idea really gave me a spark...he he, no pun intended.

First, you need a micro sized screen, 120 micron is perfect. You can get a nice sized piece from a T-shirt silk screening shop. get a large mouthed MASON jar with a 2 peice lid and put all your DRIED shake into it, put silk screen over jar and only the screw portion of lid on to make a quick filter, now take this and gently shake it over a mirror, glass table, or ??? anything that you can scrape with a plastic edge - credit card comes to mind, after about 5-10 minutes of this gentle shaking you will have enough "powder" resin glands to easily add to your secondary or a little to each bottle and taste when ready... I think I may try this soon.

Be careful using this "powder" in regular smoke, it will put you down.

To answer the original poster, I've never heard of this. Yes, everyone's right the alcohol is way too low to extract the active ingredient in pot...which is a good thing. But, correct me if I'm wrong; the whole point of dry hopping is not to bitter the beer, but rather to odor it. So, if you like the smell...

Probably be about the same price as hops these days...

Kettlehouse brewery in Montana has a really good hemp porter called "Old Bongwater Hemp Porter" http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/1916/5581
Not sure of their brewing process though...

First post, and on such a fun thread.

Considering THC is fat soluble, would it be possible to add an emulsifier to disperse the oil into the mostly water(beer) solution? Hey, it's what they do with all those crappy Italian Dressings at the grocery store.

Hey, you're being adventurous for wanting to make the beer... Why not be adventurous in it's consumption. Just imagine the look on your friends faces when you pour that concoction out into some pint (or shot) glasses and tell them "It will f*** you up!"

HA! :fro:

Salvinorum A is alcohol soluable and for the time being, Salvia is legal in most states.

I'm considering going a salvia infused batch of bitter.

I googled, I might be the first, which would be neat.

 

[Freezeblade]

Ok, I think really the only way you can go about doing this in all seriousness is to make a strong tincture with everclear, a really strong one, then add said tincture in at either bottling or in secondary, that's really the only way the THC could properly be introduced into the beer, if you're going for smell, yeah, dry-hop with it.

As for the salvia, in order to activate the Salvinorum I thought you had to heat it to a very high (burning) temp, I don't know if a soak in alcohol would do much...unless you somehow heated it (microwave perhaps, like with MJ in preparing) before you tried to extract the active ingredient.

They suggest torch lighters when smoking it because the Salv. A has a higher vaporization point and it makes the leaf more potents. You don't really need to "activate" the chemical though.

I don't know if a soak in alcohol would do much

One of the most beautiful thing about seeing legal salvia is that is opened my eyes to just how many products and services will be offered for cannabis when it's legalized. As to the "alchohol soak" it would indeed extract the salv. A. In fact, because it's legal, they sell Salvia tincture which is exactly that, salvia soaked in alchohol to extract the salv. A and then evaporated to the proper dose. There's instructions online on how to extract it, but for consistancy I'd probably purchase a tincture of a good brand. Of course, that wouldn't quite be "dry hemping" but hey...

I click on the last page and weve come to basically how to make hash. Well done boys well done.

 

[Scooterkdavis]

Has anyone tried this yet, or come up with a good recipe?
ive read through all the threads based on this subject for a few hours and have not come up with one decent recipe or procedure.
I have a friend who is a pot head who was willing to donate 1 oz of such hops for a case of the results.

So please anyone with a decent extract recipe please post:
Thanks

Primary: xtra bitter wheat
Secondary: Newcastle clone
Bottled: Belgum Blonde, Said Head Red, Victory IPA

The board seems to be pretty liberal on this topic.

Repeated uses of 3+ "lol's" per post will get you banned, though

And we lock down distillation threads pretty damn fast too. Guess that Illegal doesn't necessarily hold the same standard from one process to the next.

 

[ohiobrewtus]

Oh jeez, not this again... lol

 

[Revvy]

DOOD, you wanna make beer with pot! :rockin:

Marijuana In Beer

(I'm not helping you...I'm only showing you that you are NOT the first that has ever considered this...so don't go thinking you are all original and sh@t. )

Oh and it's called "Dry Hemping" around here....if you use search you'll find plenty of info and trash talking about it (like now.)

So you might as well stock up on fritos already.

*looks at calender.*....oh yeah, college is back in session. Countdown to pruno threads in 5...4...3...2........

Last time I mixed beer and weed (over 20 years ago) I puked on some of the "Funk Brothers" (the former Motown Session Musicians who are also some of the top Jazz guys in Detroit.) It was also the last time I smoked any either....

Took me quite awhile to live THAT one down.....

 

[homebrewer_99]

I'd rather smoke a doob THEN drink my unfermented wort...

This topic has been discussed extensively enough. Regardless of any opinions about legalization and use, it's still illegal in most states and countries, including the one where HBT is hosted. As a rule, we don't discuss the concentration and extraction of alcohol, so we REALLY don't need to discuss the concentration and extraction of more illicit substances.
