Whatā€™s MCT? Can food flavoring (lemon) be substituted for terpenes?
Thanks.

Whatā€™s Qwet dabs?

67

Food flavoring isnā€™t necessarily made with pure terps. Iā€™d say no for vaping.

Qwet dabs are a dabbable concentrate extracted with ethanol.

It can be made into edibles or put into pill capsules or even taken straight.

Thanksā€¦ so when this tincture is complete (VAPE OIL) does it need to be ā€˜storedā€™ in empty cartridges, or will a small container do until ready for use? Refrigerated or not?

I just started making vape cartridges and I use Wax Liquidizer and wax i pressed. I used 1 gram of wax and then 2 ml of Liquidizer with it in the container they provided and mixed on low heat on the stove in a pot of water until all mixed together then fill your cartridge. Iā€™ve never smoked RSO, only add it to gummies.

Then what is the vape cartridge oil called? QWET? Iā€™ve printed several ā€˜recipesā€™ for these but unsure about what is called what.

Itā€™s called vape oil LOL.
QWET - Quick Wash Ethanol - this is what you get when you use the Everclear to strip off the trichomes from the buds. You can concentrate it down as much as you like to make
a) tincture
b) very think tincture
c) wax (or dab)

VAPE OI:
Maybe this article will help better explain (blackthumbbetty says temps for flavor and for manipulating the effects) and MCTā€™s added to the QWEST concentrate.

Thank you! I made some but was told the taste was terribleā€¦ but the effect was great. I canā€™t figure out what I did wrong? I evaporated it down in a double boiler (took several hours on LO) Do you have any idea of my mistake?
