Haha GL that's some funny shit. Ya actually I haven't even tried getting rid of the taffy yet. I have a few batches of it so far and actually the first batch of taffy I made is actually starting to kind of butter up on it's own from sitting out in room temp now for a couple of weeks. Hopefully it will butter right up. Weird but looks like it might.

The picture thing is easy man just get a photobucket free account and upload the pics to that website then copy and paste it in the thread..

I had a batch I did last week turn into wax over the course of the week just sitting in a parchment paper at room temp. Its very fragrant, and looks nice havn't tried any yet. I've had a couple do that, usually they start out as shatter, though this one was more of a golden taffy.

Yoda, wouldn't you need either a pressurised system or keep the butane liquid to collect it?

I was going to suggest to look for distributers who sell to tobacconists, small grocers & the like. You can find them in the phone book. Or, if you have a local manufacturer or distributor/agent for a brand, ask if you can order direct, if not, ask for a list of sub-agents. Just have a good alibi story to explain quantities needed [grandma is a heavy cig smoker? Idk, can't think of a good one of the top of my head. :)] They'd love a steady customer & your cutting out the middleman. You'd get it for at least half of what your paying or less. Atm I'm getting Ventii for $3.43 a can for a box of 6. I don't use much so that'll do me.

This is very promising information!

I've yet to look into the closed loop system. Gonna read up on that soon. Gotta find a way to reduce the cost of butane. Recycling it would be great!
I was thinking the same thing GL. I got the name of the distributor for Canada off the back of the butane can. Gonna see if my friends that run a grow store can bring it in for me at a commercial price.

I got 23% return yield back on the Kush I just ran to Honeycomb!!!!! Turned out nice and blonde and smells soooo dank! It's the stuff I ran of dried blendered buds frozen. Gonna do the comparison with un-blendered buds and post up the thread of the full comparison after I run the next batch..
Couple pics of it:

That looks f-in amazing master Yoda! Like peanut brittle....this thread is a treasure trove of good info. I plan to try my first BHO run next week, I got just about all the equipment I need already but couldn't afford a vac pump & chamber like that phat setup you got. Is it possible to make wax that looks all dry like that using a hand brake bleeder & mason jar chamber?

Hey midnite thanks man! I'm real new to this bho deal so sorry I'm no expert but I have seen vids and pics of guys using the hand pumps and mason jars to make it.

Thanks Twitch man! I gotta try for some shatter in a day or two. Got a lot of requests for it this week. Can you offer any tips for me with making shatter?

After muffin. And melt down. Have you noticed it go from shatter clear
To fog, then wax?

Pull it out just prior to fog.

And store sealed up, or else it will wax

Right on Guz thank you! That's where my head was at too.

Gonna give the shatter a go this week with a small batch.

So I got all my tubes ready and they're freezing up. I'm gonna do that second batch of the kush with lightly broken up buds comparing it to the last batch of blendered ones I did in those last pics I posted up. I will blast them tonight and let air purge till morning so should have the results tomorrow night. Sure can't fit near as much lightly broken up buds in the tubes as the blendered stuff.

Also have some tubes with RockStar and OG loaded and freezing up.

New fresh hand trim and machine trim on the racks drying up for a new comparison run on those too soon.

image.jpgOk so I have arrived at the conclusion that it's next to impossible to make honeycomb with a hand powered mityvac however, clear purged BHO shatter is relatively easy. I was amazed how quickly you can go from blasting to a finished product within a few hours. I also recognize the danger inherent in making BHO if common sense is not applied. So here's some pics of my first try at BHO I think it came out good..it vapes & tastes nice; texture is like an amber jolly rancher
The pics show vac process after 3x purges and then after 7x Then after 9x called it done & test dabbed yum
