Could anyone tell me if they use RO water for bubble making?
If so does it need electrolyte replacement? Cheers :)

I use straight r/o with no problems. Imo the less impurities the better.

^^^ the water is only used for as a "wash" - to wash the resin off the leaves....thc is not water soluble therefore the cleaner the water, the less impurities are left in the bubble bags ;)---

any1 ever hear of "Kangen Water" - its a PH Balanced water and supposedly you can clean grease off the kitchen counter with a HIGH PH water, anyways my friend has one, and i wanna try it for BUbble Making, because on the demo they show someone pouring cold water over a teabag and ALL the tea was extracted into the COLD water.....it HAS To get EVERYTHING out of the ganja.....any feeedback?

Water + teabag = infusion (gettin water solubles out)

Water + Bubblebags = Trichome seperation and filtration (gettin non-water solubles out)

Water is not a solvent that 'washes off' the trichomes, but in this instance it is the chilling and carrier agent in the process of making bubblehash. Making bubblehash is a physical process, the material bangs around with the ice, the trichs get brittle, break/fall off, sink to the bottom, and then are sorted by the bag filtration.

As to RO water, at a small level it will remove physical impurities from the water getting into the hash, and also any chemical additives in the water supply (ie clorine/floride). Can only improve the final product.

also anywater with heitened ph would essentially be more acidic there for lower freezing point allowing for super cooled water look into it.

Thank you everybody :)
The knowledge base of the members on this forum is by far the best on the web (as you’d expect given the pedigree).
I have a lot to read and a lot to learn here :smoke1:
