Quick Wash Cannabis Infused Alcohol Tincture aka QWET- Quick Wash Ethanol Tincture
•1/2 cup high proof vodka (such as Everclear) ice cold from freezer
•7 grams decarboxylated (no decarb if you wish to have THCa or if you plan to reduce to FECO) cannabis flower, broken up into small pieces and frozen
•cheese cloth
•2 pint size mason jars with lid and ring
•funnel
•coffee filters
•rubber bands
1. In 1-pint mason jar, combine frozen, decarboxylated cannabis and ice cold vodka. Tighten lid/ring and shake vigorously for about 2 minutes. Immediately, strain plant matter out of vodka using multiple layers of cheese cloth, held over funnel with rubber band. Squeeze any remaining alcohol into mason jar, from cheesecloth, then discard cheesecloth. *You may rewash the material if desire- just be sure to keep the washes separate (they will be different grades).
2. After you have completely strained cannabis from alcohol, place lid and ring on jar and freeze for 48 hours to winterize. After 48 hours, slowly strain alcohol through coffee filter (keeping as cold as possible) to remove lipids.
3. Once, you have strained completely, your cannabis infused alcohol is complete. It takes a very little amount for effects. Store in freezer for best quality and longest shelf life.
