Anybody who lives in Europe knows how awful "soapbar" type hash is. It's the cheapest stuff available, it's often rock hard and very dark all the way through, and smells a bit like rubber or plastic when you burn it.

It's basically the worst kind of hash known to mankind. Bastard dealers take some average hash, and then mix it with all kinds of other substances to increase the weight. Things like parrafin wax, shoe polish, butter, all kinds of shit.

So obviously you NEVER want to smoke soapbar. But of course, every now and then it's the only thing you can get your hands on, so it can be necessary to smoke the poisoned shite.

BUT!

There's something you can do first, that will get rid of many impurities. I've done this myself and been surprised with the improvement, it can actually turn shitty hash into OK hash if you follow the instructions properly.

You will need:

# Kettle

# Fork

# Coffee Filter

Boil the kettle and fill a large bowl with the boiled water and then add the soap. Allow the soap to soak and soften for 2 minutes or so, then crush it as well as you can with the fork into a powdery form. Stir the mix for between 5 - 10 minutes (longer if you want).

The water should turn color - that's all the crap that your hash was cut with!

The hash should be clumped in the bottom of the bowl, most of the impurities should be dissolved into the warm water. Pour as much of the liquid down the sink as you can without losing the mass hash, and then pour the rest through the coffee filter.

Shape the hash and use a towel to remove much of the water. Leave to dry (or use a blow drier for a quicker dry).

The cleaned hash may be powdery or flakey (and not remain as a compressed lump). A good method to solidify the hash is to put all the hash in to some tinfoil (nice and tight), heat the tinfoil gently and then squeeze to hash down (using a book), then leave to cool.

The hash should be more pure; you will notice that the remaining amount is smaller that what you started with. Less quantity, better quality.

Note: if the hash has been cut really bad, you may want to repeat.

How it works:

THC will not dissolve into water; dissolving the soap into hot water separates most of the impurities from the hash.

Just to be 100% clear, it's the stuff that you have left at the end in the coffee filter which is the good stuff.

They actually put shoe polish in soapbar hash?

I thought people were joking when they said that...

I wish...

There's nothing that is always added to the hash, it varies depending on what the dodgy bastard in question can think of or get his hands on.

But there's no question about the impurities. I've seen water turn a funky pale yellow color, while purifying soapbar. Someone has told me that while purifying soapbar one time, the water smelled like coffee. Disgusting.

quote:While reading Robert Connell Clarke's excellent book, Hashish, we came across a section on low-grade export quality Moroccan hash, known in the UK as Soap Bar. It seems that soap is made from only a very small percentage of resin glands (referred to as pollen), and up to 90% non-resin cannabis plant material which is bound together with bee's wax or pine resin and condensed milk as the mixture is too dry and powdery to be bound any other way. As the mixture is very green due to the high percentage of plant material, it is then coloured with instant coffee or henna to give it that sandy brown colour! In order to give it a slightly resinous look, turpentine is then added, which also disguises the taste!

Well, as growers with an abundance of leaf material left over from a crop, we couldn't help ourselves. We had to give it a try!

We sieved off 10 grams of resin glands (pollen), crushed up 200 grams of dried leaf and ran it through a sieve to reduce it to a very fine powder. We then heated this mixture in a bowl over boiling water and added 5 grams of bee's wax, five teaspoons of condensed milk powder, one teaspoon of turpentine, and a couple of pinches of instant coffee powder for colour. We continued to knead the heated mixture into a dough-like form, then pressed it under pressure and allowed it to cool. It bonded well into rock hard lumps, just like Soap Bar! To our delight, when we tested it with a flame, immediately we were treated with that old familiar smell of grade 'A' genuine Soap Bar! Crumpled like it too! Although there was virtually no resin glands in this so-called hash, we gave some to a friend and he had no complaints!!

^ by the way, that thing above is how they make "good" soapbar.

What they do with the worst kind, is they take let's say a ton of average hash that's been imported into the UK or whatever, they load it into a skip (idk what skips are called in America, they're portable containers for garbage from building sites), then add another ton or so of additives, and mix everything together with some kind of industrial machinery before re-pressing it.

The way you can always tell if it's the worst kind of soapbar is that it has bits of clear plastic mixed into it. That's because they took the imported hash, which was already pressed and vacuum packed, and didn't bother taking off the wrapping before they mixed it together with the pollutants. Fuckers!

You wouldn't find it as funny if you were smoking it.

Thank God the only marijuana I get is the plant itself.

No one should ever smoke that shit, my friend used to smoke it and ended up in hospital getting oil removed from his chest and lungs. As we say round here "Fuck smoking that shit lets go make are own, at lest we will know whats in it."

Good guide, it's too bad people still get hash like this.

You really should grow your own plants (hell, hemp would work) and make your own hash; you could make a killing selling it to people for $5 more than the other assholes.
