How to Make Cannabis Oil (RSO) at Home!

How to Make RSO at Home: Step-by-Step

Disclaimer Time!

Before we jump in, remember that making RSO involves using solvents
and requires some serious safety measures. We’re talking well-ventilated
areas, no open flames (seriously!), and a big dash of caution. Safety
first, my friends! 😎  Please be careful, and make sure you know your local laws before cooking up a batch of oil. I don’t want you to have any issues!

What You’ll Need:

• Dried cannabis (preferably an indica dominant strain, for relaxation and healing)
• Solvent (Like 99% Isopropyl Alcohol or ethanol.
  Rick Simpson recommends pure light naphtha, but ethanol is often
  preferred for health and safety reasons.)
• Glass mixing bowl
• Wooden spoon (or anything that won’t react with the solvent)
• Large, deep baking dish
• Strainer or cheesecloth
• Rice cooker (Yes, a rice cooker. We’ll explain!)
• Plastic syringe (for storing your finished RSO)
• Fan (optional but highly recommended for ventilation)

Step 1: Get Grinding

Start by breaking up your dried cannabis into smaller pieces. You
don’t need to grind it into a fine powder; just make sure it’s broken up
enough to fit nicely into your mixing bowl.

Step 2: Soak it in Solvent

Pour enough solvent over the cannabis to fully cover it. Use your
spoon to stir the mixture and help release all the cannabinoids and
other goodies from the plant material. This should take about 2-3
minutes. 💪

Step 3: Strain It Out

Next, strain the mixture through cheesecloth or a strainer into your
glass bowl. Don’t waste a drop! You’ll likely need to do this a couple
of times to make sure you’ve squeezed out all the oil-laden solvent.

Step 4: Time to Cook (and Ventilate!)

Here comes the rice cooker magic! Pour the solvent-cannabis mixture
into the rice cooker and set it to low heat. The solvent will start to
evaporate, leaving behind that rich, dark cannabis oil we know as RSO. Important:
You’ll want a fan to blow away fumes, and make sure you’re working in a
ventilated area. Solvent fumes can be flammable, so keep any sparks,
flames, or heat sources far away!

Step 5: The Waiting Game

It will take a bit of time for all the solvent to evaporate, but be
patient. You’ll start to see thick, dark oil forming—this is your RSO!
Once the bubbling subsides, you’ll know the solvent is gone.

Step 6: Final Touch

Once your RSO has cooled slightly, use a plastic syringe to suck up
the oil for easy storage and dosing. Store it in a cool, dark place to
keep its potency intact.

Whether you’re using RSO for pain management, as part of a cancer
treatment plan, or just to chill out, the benefits are real. And now,
you’ve got the know-how to whip up your own batch at home!

And there you have it! Making RSO is definitely a bit of an
adventure, but the results can be life-changing. Try it out (safely!),
and let us know how it goes! 💚

There are several different methods of making Full Extract Cannabis Oil (FECO) aka Rick Simpson Oil (RSO).  The video below uses a coffee maker, Rick Simpson uses a rice cooker, and I use a magnetic stirrer/heater.
