Here's a quick explanation (it's basically dried REALLY GOOD honey oil)

It takes BUDS to make budder of this quality with ISO, tops preferably, of a super-crystally strain (ones with lots of terpenes seem to do it well)

rinse #1
the product, frozen buds, previously pulled apart to individual nugs (each about marble size), are put into a 4 cup pyrex measuring cup (2/3 full), and frozen iso is poured into it (enough to cover the buds, stirred , and drained immediately into said sieve/filter setup (holding back the bud while letting alcohol drain)
rinse#2
again fill the measuring cup with (fresh) frozen iso over the same batch of buds, this time crunching a little bit of the bud, and again drain
rinse #3
again fill the measuring cup with (fresh) frozen iso over the same batch of buds, this time crunching them fairly well, and again drain

remember, keep your rinses seperate (i have 3 or 4 stations set up with sieves/filter ready so I don't have to wait or slow down, at the end you can decide @ what point the rinses are impotent, or have color, or taste bad, allowing you to maximize not just yield, but potency. (some of us custom tailor our rinses, #1 & #3 together, etc., as they all produce adifferent high.

this is what I consider 3 rinses.

Remember, this can easily produce a dark, poor tasting product, the process MUST be done extremely fast, all 3 rinses in 15- 30 seconds.

The key i found in success was allowing normally dry buds out for several days in a dry, warm environment, until they are light colored, and puff into dust when squeezed.
It should be that dry, get rid of as much of the chlorophyl before hand, and the extreme rinsing has that much less of a chance to pull it out.
this is also why everything is frozen, the iso has less of a chance to soak into the plant material, the coldness and dryness and the broken up state of the buds all help in allowing as much crystal to be washed off the plant as possible.
I found #1 rinse isn't as good as when U add #2 and sometimes #3 to it. there is something to that, as well as increased yield.

typical yield off 28 g. of excellent bud - 3.5 - 4 g. of budder, although I've seen up to 5 g. on some peoples weed (where are U now) Although most strains give less than 3, and plenty of so called killer strains won't even "budder up'. By this I mean the final step, when it dries into paste from a liquid state, and the color changes to very light, even white some strains, the crystal is so pure. adding the second rinse to 1 really helps. typically I would get 1.5 g. off #1, about the same off #2, and less than 1/2 of that off #3 (1/2 - 3/4 g.)

butane yields more, up to 50% more in some cases.

after you have nice thick honey oil, heat and stir is the trick, 140 degrees F., if your buds were good enough, you might have something like this......

FROM STASH TO HASH IN A FLASH

rad writeup , great shot's

thanks again for making this info public for everyone tug



some of my friends are blown away by the quality smell and texture i get usin this method


ive got this pic still from my first budder attempt which went well ... i used reg shit 80$/14g = approx 2.5 - 3 g oil

so what if some "killer" strains wont budder up? doesnt make them any less killer does it now.... seems you imply that its not really killer cuz it doesnt make budder , which seems kinda silly.... budder elitist, if you ask me..

well tug thanks very much for the teaching!!!
one question, what do you think it's better bho or iso?
thanks to the BUDDER GURU!!!

start with bho, then re-dissolve in iso, if you want to use iso.
