    I don't know a great deal about this method to be honest. I would think boiling the contents will decarb it though, but a high temp for 12-24 hrs maybe too long? I've read that when decarbing in the oven, if you go over the 25-35 mins the THC will degrade into CBN so i assume the same would apply with what you're doing. I would make a test run with a small amount and see how it works out mate.

    That's exactly what I plan to do. I got about 8 oz I can sacrifice to figure this out

    Yea, I don't know anything about the cbn thing. If I was to make a large batch of rso, I'd have to heat for several hours to evaporate alcohol so it seems similar. But if what your saying, reduced the psychoactive thc, that's actually a good thing for my purposes. I'm more of a cbd guy, currently waiting for my cbd critical cure to grow up

    It would be a large batch though. When i make oil with say 3 oz, it only takes around 30mins to boil off the solvent. All we can do is try these things and see how they work out mate

    Nice strain choice

    How much rso do you get with 3 oz of cannabis? How much alcohol do you use for that batch?

    What is the best alcohol to use? Everclear is not available in my state, and I'd prefer to go to the local liquor store.
