How to Make Rick Simpson Oil (RSO): The Fun, Healthier Way with Ethanol

If you’ve ever heard of Rick Simpson Oil (RSO), you’re probably intrigued by its reputation as a miracle cure for a wide range of health conditions. Rick Simpson, who developed the oil after his own battle with cancer, created a method of making RSO that has gained worldwide recognition. So, what is RSO? Simply put, it’s a highly concentrated form of THC oil designed for medicinal use, and for many people, it’s a game-changer.

What is RSO, and Why Should You Make it at Home?

Let’s start at the beginning. Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) is a cannabis concentrate that’s rich in THC and other cannabinoids. It’s different from other extracts in that it’s made using the entire plant—roots, leaves, flowers, and all. The result is a full-spectrum extract that’s jam-packed with all the beneficial compounds from the cannabis plant.

People use RSO for many reasons—its proponents swear by it for everything from easing chronic pain and alleviating PTSD to more serious conditions like cancer. While we won’t claim RSO is a cure-all, there’s no denying its popularity and the glowing testimonials from its users.

Why Use Ethanol for Making RSO?

One of the key reasons people opt for ethanol extraction when learning how to make RSO is the purity it offers. Unlike other solvents like butane or isopropyl alcohol, food-grade ethanol (like Extractohol) ensures a cleaner extraction with no harmful residues. Ethanol is both safe and effective, and it allows you to make high-quality RSO that retains the plant’s full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes.

Extractohol is renowned for its 200 Proof Food Grade Ethanol and 190 Proof Natural Food Grade Sugar Cane Alcohol (Extractohol-O). These high-quality solvents are ideal for making tinctures, oils, and concentrates. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced extraction artist, our superior products are designed to help you create the best possible extractions.

Ingredients You’ll Need to Make RSO with Ethanol

  • High-quality cannabis: Preferably an indica strain, as RSO is traditionally made from indica-dominant plants.
  • Extractohol: Food-grade ethanol (either 190-proof or 200-proof works best).
  • A large glass or stainless-steel container: For mixing your cannabis and ethanol.
  • A cheesecloth or fine strainer: To filter out plant material.
  • A shallow dish: For evaporating the alcohol.
  • A spatula: For scraping the oil after evaporation.
  • A dark, airtight container: For storing your RSO.

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Make RSO Using Ethanol

  1. Prepare Your Cannabis: First, grind your cannabis. Aim for a rough chop. Make sure your cannabis is properly dried and cured to ensure the best extraction results.
  2. Soak the Cannabis in Ethanol: Take your container, add the cannabis, and pour the Extractohol over it until it’s fully submerged. Let it soak for at least 5 minutes.
  3. Stir the Mixture: Gently stir to ensure all cannabinoids and terpenes dissolve into the ethanol.
  4. Strain the Mixture: After soaking, strain the cannabis from the liquid using a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  5. Evaporate the Ethanol: Pour the liquid into a shallow dish and allow the ethanol to evaporate at room temperature or in a warm water bath. Ensure good ventilation.
  6. Scrape and Store: Once all the ethanol has evaporated, scrape the oil into a dark, airtight container for storage.

Why Ethanol is the Healthier Choice for Making THC Oil

If you’re wondering why ethanol is better for making THC oil, the answer lies in its safety and efficacy. Ethanol evaporates completely, leaving no harmful residues in your oil. Other solvents like butane or naphtha can leave behind traces that you don’t want in your medicine.

With Extractohol’s 200 Proof Food Grade Ethanol or 190 Proof Natural Food Grade Sugar Cane Alcohol, you’re guaranteed a solvent that will help you make the highest quality extractions—clean, pure, and potent.

A Fun Twist: Rick Simpson Oil Your Way!

One of the best parts about making RSO at home is that you get to customize it to your liking. Want a stronger oil? Soak the cannabis longer. Prefer a lighter oil? You can evaporate off less alcohol. Making RSO is like crafting your own special potion, and you get to experiment with it until it’s just right for you.

Real Customer Testimonials: The RSO Experience

Ensuring Purity, Potency, and Safety

When making Rick Simpson Oil, purity is key. By using ethanol from Extractohol, you can rest assured that your extraction is as clean and safe as possible. Not only is food-grade ethanol non-toxic, but it also evaporates completely, leaving nothing behind but pure, potent oil.

Ethanol: The Environmentally Friendly Option

Beyond its health benefits, ethanol is also a more sustainable and eco-friendly solvent. Extractohol’s ethanol is derived from natural sugar cane, grown without harmful chemicals. This not only makes it better for you but also better for the planet.

Making RSO at home doesn’t have to be intimidating. With the right ingredients—like high-quality cannabis and ethanol from Extractohol—you can create a potent, safe, and effective oil that meets your specific needs. Plus, it’s a fun, hands-on way to craft your own natural remedy. Happy extracting!
