Just try it and thats the best thing i can tell you. Please try the method that was stated in the beginning of this thread before any other tweaking gets put into the method if you do happen to try it. This is how its been done in my family for years. If you want to see final product look at PLANIT GROWITS old thread in the Mandala section called A few beautiful Mandala pictures and skim down a ways and look for the hash hash oil pics as this was made the same way. Hash and hash oil for the most part will be dark not often do we see blonde hash or blonde hash oil where i am. The reason for the acetone is its evaporating capabilities, dump some out next to some ISO in diff dishes and watch the difference, you will be their all day phukin with ISO as the acetone is gone in litteraly seconds, and they are both poison . Hopefully this helps your decision, like i said in the beginning of the thread plant food is poison and its not always flushed completely out and i am sure that it cant be any better for you. And the acetone does in no way phuk with flavor. GAURANTEED.
Half a litre? how much are you trying to make? If this helps on how much you would need try this, use a 20 oz plastic soda bottle, grind up enough weed to fill up the bottle 1 inch, which should be about an 8th, add just enough acetone so that it is about 1 inch above the top of the weed, that shoud be a very little bit of acetone. That will not produce much but will give you an idea of what is possible. It doesnt take much. hope that helps. If not sorry half to go another routeI can use more then half a L in one session so at $5 per 500ml I can't do that.
...use a 20 oz plastic soda bottle, grind up enough weed to fill up the bottle ... add just enough acetone ...
It only dissolves certain plastic or glass could be used. Evaporation gets rid of most all of it and the burning it before smoking it takes care of the rest. This isnt for everyone though i understand your concern.imo it sounds like not healthy.., acetone dissolves plastic and evaporation will not remove it from your oil.
Thank you for breaking that down. Much love.Acetone, like ISO is often sold in plastic bottles. Only use the same type of plastic that the acetone bottle was made of. I think it might be HDPE plastic. Glass is always the best option when in doubt.
I'm not sure why so many think that ISO is less toxic than acetone. ISO is oxidized by the liver into acetone, so they have about the same level of toxicity. ISO is 2-propanol and acetone is 2-propanone. The body actually naturally biosynthesizes acetone in small amounts from ketones, especially when on a ketogenic (low carb, high fat (atkins)) diet.
It is more flammable and volatile than ISO, however so it must be handled accordingly. So long as the acetone is pure, it is handled properly and it is purged thoroughly, there is no more to be concerned about than if you were using ISO. Don't confuse this as an endorsement for acetone though. Use whatever you feel comfortable with. I prefer butane myself.

Rideon brotha.I used acetone to make hash oil back in the early 70's
used glass jars and stainless pans worked great
