not a good idea to use plastic.at allWe used to use a pvc pipe with caps that had holes drilled in them. I wonder if that's bad too?
Butane in the refrigerator? Do not do it this way or sooner or later you'll regret it.... and soak in freezer for X amount of time, the longer the soak, the more butane will evaporate. (I like 1 hour soaks)
I like to open the freezer every 10-15 mins to let any butane vapors escape to avoid build up over the course of the soak.
...
The soak is fine in a freezer indoors as not too much butane is evaporated in the 1 hour
What Jump said! Soaking a jar of butane in a freezer is a formula for disaster.Blast enough butane in 1st jar until butane is level with material (stop once or twice and take butane tip out of jar lid to avoid pressure build up inside jar) and soak in freezer for X amount of time, the longer the soak, the more butane will evaporate. (I like 1 hour soaks)

IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, THIS SHOULD BE DONE OUTSIDE.
The soak is fine in a freezer indoors as not too much butane is evaporated in the 1 hour but don't get complacent, it is still very volatile!!
As opposed to what? Blasting, purging..........What Jump said! Soaking a jar of butane in a freezer is a formula for disaster.
You've been making shatter for 25 years? Really?As opposed to what? Blasting, purging..........
Everything involved in BHO has the potential for disaster.
I guess I have just been lucky the past 25 years.
Ummmmm.....as opposed to a closed loop system that is certifiable to ASME, IBC, IEC, and NFPA-58 as required in legal applications for instance.As opposed to what? Blasting, purging..........

Keep it simple,
Put desired amount of weed in multiple mason jars with small hole in lid just big enough to fit butane nozzle and freeze overnight along with butane (separately).
The same jar can be used over for the blasts but 2 makes it a little faster allowing less butane to evaporate

After soak, pour out butane from jar 1 into jar 2 and repeat.......so on and so forth......
I like to do 2 soaks of the material, the 2nd soak is done with new butane and then combined with the first.
Then lid can be removed on mason jar and place unbleached coffee filter over mouth and screw on the ring to hold on the filter and filter into whatever you see fit.
I use a warm bath to reduce and then purge.
