So I REALLY fucked this up trying to wing it hahaha I now know a lot more than I did before trying to wing it... but I'm not sure if this is safe to smoke or I should throw it out:

1) I ground up 20g of shake (apparently I do not want to grind it up really fine) and put it in the freezer in a mason jar, along with a bottle of 99% iso
2) After 24 hours of freezing I poured the ISO into the jar with the shake and shook vigorously for 3 minutes (apparently you only want to do this for 20s - and not vigorously at all)
3) I strained this mess through a cheesecloth (apparently you want to pour through a metal strainer to separate the shake from the alc immediately - then you filter that alc separately through a pre-soaked coffee filter)
4) I poured the strained liquid into a large pyrex dish. You could see tons of sediment had gotten into the liquid and had settled on the bottom.
5) I covered this dish with a tea towel to keep out the dust and put it on my balcony at night. The next day in the afternoon I'd checked it and the level of the alc had barely gone down. I took the towel off it to allow more air flow (it was about +30C out) and it started evaporating extremely quickly - you could literally see it going down. After quite a few hours in the hot weather (it was in the shade) all of it appeared to be evaporated off.
6) I watched a lot of video's about making oil (which seems to be pretty similar) and it is always very liquid as they are near the end of burning it off and they pull it into a syringe to be easily used later. Mine, when I picked the dish up, had just a BIT of alcohol still there (you could see the tiniest bit of liquid).
7) I scraped the dish and what I had looked a BIT more oily than what was in the picture. What I had seen in a lot of videos was someone heating up the final product, in a small metal container, on a coffee maker element - to evaporate the extra alc, make it liquid again and be put in a syringe... well I put it in a metal dish and on a coffee element and it seemed to be getting really soft... but then nothing was really happening... it smelt a tiny bit like when you decarb weed.
8) After doing that I was left with the mess you see in the picture and am wondering if it is even safe to smoke!!!! There was a little alc left when I'd picked the dish up (which I thought I'd get rid of on the coffee element) .... and i read afterward that once it is scraped up it is almost impossible to get all the ISO out of it .... so that was probably a mistake....
People say you can tell if there is alc by putting a piece on a spoon and heating it up to look for bubbles ... when I heated this up on a spoon literally nothing happened. What is the finished product even supposed to look like? Lots of people say it is supposed to be dry and crumbly, other people say it is supposed to be liquid and look like oil... what is it!?
If there is still ISO in this and it has not been purged, will that make me sick?
Sorry for the wall of text.
