    without the proper extraction equipment

    All you need is a a proper filter and you can shift the kief out and press it. Can get one from most fabric stores, just right micron size. Now you’ve got traditional hash.

    That’s not as effective but arguably simpler equipment than this next one. Pick up acetone and a glass/metal container and bowl (oh and a metal sieve if you’ve not got one, but coffee filters will do as well) from a hardware store. Crush the bud, soak it in acetone, pour the acetone into the bowl and then let it evaporate. That’s oil. With a little tuning, you can make extremely high quality extracts this way.

    So idk, you’re probably thinking of some elaborate CO2 extraction systems as “proper extraction equipment” but none of that jazz is necessary for high quality extracts. We’ve been making them for literally a few thousand years by hand, lol. Although making charas is out of the question pretty much with dry weed.

    Doesn’t even look that great from the parts you can see and the fact it’s definitely been in those packs for a long time, it’s probably throat scratching med-tier over-dry weed. Meh.
