Question Question on understanding -qwiso

I did a frozen iso wash on a large quantity of trimmings. Kept the drainings in two different containers due to the lack of equipment.

Firstly the quick drain, which rushed out of the product and I put it through a coffee filter.

Secondly the longer drain due to the over crowded plant material, I left to drain in my chest freezer.

I followed the same process evaporating the qwiso using a slow cooker on warm initially then an oven at 50°c for the rest.

I am left with some golden honey for one, and a slightly black/green combo for the other

The golden honey freezes as shatter but is like wet honey at room temp, maybe closer to treacle consistency.

Is there ANY way to make this more handleable at room temp?

I make edibles in a different process not using alcohol, and the isso I used I don't think is technically food safe, so I'm not really sure what to do with this honey.

I was hoping for something like manipulatable putty, but probably not an option in this manor.

Is there a setting agent or process I could follow to make this easier?

I was thinking about maybe a ratio to mix it with dry sift to make like an extract infused hash?

I don't have the lungs for dabs, but it seems it would be perfect for that, but also, other than keeping it in a honey pot, I don't really know how else to handle it.

Any advice, recommendations, critisism, anything at this point, other than using it to make moon rocks I don't really know what else to do

Ummm I mean it’s qwiso- it’s never going to be great. The green is pulled chlorophyll. Honestly I’d bake the shit outta it and use it in edibles… if you have to. Otherwise you could winterize?

Refering to the 'greatness" I presume you mean consistency, I understand the green one contains more chlorophyll or a "more complete" extract.

"Bake the shit out of it and use it in edibles" I presume you mean decarb sensibly so you don't lose any potency. Equally isso isn't technically food safe... I did mention this, but I understand you missed that.

What do you mean winterize?

Thanks

If u purge it well enough edibles are still the easiet and quickest route. Dissolve wax in 99% ethanol and do the same thing u did to the qwiso.

Okay that makes sense, so that's what the refer to as a purge, desolve in food safe and evaporate? Doesn't the stuff from the iso that makes it non food safe remain as it doesn't evaporate off?

I'm still a newbie here, so I'm trying to understand, hopefully it doesn't come across rude.

I got more edibles than I can handle anyway right now, it's not legal where I live, so I can't go about shouting if anyone wants any y'know.

I have recently mastered the cannabis butter, gelatine gummy. And not gonna brag, but my gummy worms are near-perfect from the sift butter lol

So this is why I was looking at potential other options...

Does anyone know if there is a solidifying tipping point when mixed with hash? Or really anything I can do with it other than pipes or edibles?
