Usjng the hair straightner I was doing around 280f now with the press I can do as low as 150f

 

[tharoomman]

I picked up a 3/4 by 7 tube. With all the problems I've read about people having, I didn't expect a nice tan color bho. But my yeild was way low. Even after I used a 300ml can I still saw lots of trichs on bud/trim.

Used 1/2 fresh frozen, 1/2 half dry bud. Packed pretty full.


How tight should tube be?

This stuff is crazy potent. Like an amount the barely produces smoke in the exhale gets me blazed. Maybe it's just my low tolerance though.


In the pic, the blackish color in middle was from a mistake made in getting off Pyrex. This stuff is all tan and so gooey.

How did you purge that?

 

[Mr.Goodtimes]

There's still trichomes on the bud after you blast. They're just "empty". Or mostly "empty".

I have the basic just trying to get all different ideas on any and all ways to make bho or how to make it better or purge tips I basically have it until I am done purging with hot water. After that I am a little lost on making it into a different consistency or texture like honeycomb over shatter. Only going to run an Oz at a time prob I no there are other threads I've searched and can't find much without looking through hundreds of dif threads. I just haven't found an easy detailed explanation yet that I can fully understand and feel like I can do it myself. And no I'm not doing the hair straightener lol that's basically crack for weed if I was that desperate. Just want to be able to make the best wax around steady watchin youtube and twitch vids.

Skunk Pharm Research covers the basic extraction techniques in a less fragmented format, though there are no threads yet about Rosin. Not an indictment against it, as I personally like Rosin, and some of the best solventless entries in concentrate cups that I've helped judge, were produced by that process.

No purge. I will cite sources if need be, but butane not toxic to humans.

I used hot water, double boiler style to evap.

When I do my next run, I'm going to use a hot plate/skillet to do a heat purge and see if I can tell a difference. If I can't, then I won't do purge anymore.

Thanks. So can I still run it again for more? Surly the stalks have stuff in it.

Thanks for the link. I will read today.

There is just sooooo much info about making bho and soooo many ways to do it, along with a bunch of "NO you can't do it that way, you gotta do it THIS way!"

 

[caveman117]

No purge eh... it looked like it wasn't purged which Is why I asked. There's so many benefits to having a well purged oil over unpurged...

As for the butane not being.toxic to humans, that doesn't mean its good for.you to.be inhaling. And what happens to butane during pyrolysis?
If i remember correctly it turns into benzene...look up that one and see if your still so.comfortable with no purging.

 

[Mr.Goodtimes]

Purging CORRECTLY makes a hyooge difference.

Yes you can unpack your tube, dry it, then run it again... But the quality is shit, uses more butane than worth, and I wouldn't recommend it.

can you elaborate

 

[caveman117]

Elaborate on what? Benefits of purged oil vs unpurged? Or why I don't want to be inhaling benzene haha?

 

[qwizoking]

no..
temp pressure time amounts produced catalyst involved.. you said pyrolysis of butane ........
i understand the combustion reaction for the most part

 

[tharoomman]

Is a 15min 170 degree purge in oven good in your eyes?

I will purge that way from now on because non purge bho I did on my 1st run was like damn honey and almost impossible to handle. Now it's a nice wax/play doughy consistency.

 

[Mr.Goodtimes]

You're getting rid of most of your flavors at that temp, but it's better then not purging. That's how I did it old school.

You really need a vac oven, or at least a heated vac chamber to keep a low heat and retain flavors while purging. IMO.
Takes patience

Ok I am brand new to making bho. Unfortunately I live in a non legal state and cannot get on the regular. Trying to make this thread for anybody to explain in detail their way of making it no matter what kind or way you use. Would be a nice thread to have all info as possible from as many different sources to help newbs out or share new info. I understand youtube is available but they are not very good explainers. So let's learn how to make wax!
