A local fire marshal warned that using butane to extract the active ingredient THC from marijuana should never have been attempted inside the home. Four empty cases of butane fuel canisters were found in the home.
??When butane is used indoors, severe injury or death may result,? explained Fire Marshal Jay Nelson of the Red White and Blue Fire Department.
I know this is old, but I figured it would be better to post here than to create a new topic.
I've tried this method personally, and no matter how tight I pack the pen, the butane still blows straight through it, just leaving a VERY small amount of sticky substance on the aluminum tray, which amounts to practically nothing.
As said in the first post, if the butane blows right through it, it won't work properly.... But no matter what I try, that's just what the butane does.
Any help?
since ancient times alchohol has been made with grains etc....probably one of the oldest solvents / drugs used ....it has also been used from waaay back as a way to make tinctures....stands to reason that if you can use it to make essential oils (hash oil),it was likely done with weed by cavepeople !
organic method of oil extraction....
1.USE everclear...straight grain alch.....no additives...evaporates readily
2. soak weed in jar 48 hours ...use enough alch. to cover ground up weed.
3.separate fiber from 1st cut oil by filtering it thru a coffee filter lining a strainer
4. Repeat filtering as many times as you feel necessary...one more time works for me.
5.a safe and organic way to eliminate the alch is to put the liquid from
second filtering into a pyrex pie pan and set it out in the sun on a warm SUNNY summer day or two ...i put it on the dash of my truck .....crack the windows a few inches to vent....
scrape the goo-oil and toke....works well on a paper after you twist one up !
opthalmic solution bottles hold ten grams ...and make real nice containers... i had only one from a prescription so i don't know where to get them...maybe a new product for someone on the retail end (?)
Ive been making oil the ISO way for the last few days. I'm brand new at this. So far it has worked great.
I use a metal container with a air tight lid. I use 91% iso rubbing alcohol. I let it soak in the alcohol for at least 1 hour or more with the lid on and shake a little. Then I pour the liquid onto a pan and set a fan next to it to make the alcohol evaporate faster, it's usually dry in 30 mins depending on how much alcohol i use. then I scrape the pan with a razor blade.
I been using a toothpick to get some oil and then gently put a flame to the oil allowing it to spread easily. I spread the oil inside of a empty cigar then fill with green and roll. I used a spoon to vaporize tonight, 5 hits had me pretty high. hardly any smoke came out, mostly vapor.
A very good way to conserve and stretch your green.
the butane draws the oil from the fiber....what is the reaction between the plastic pen and butane ?
Not wanting to hijack this thread....but it seems to be the active one..... got some weed from a guy in oregon...looks like top shelf ,big buds ....when smoked in a joint it leaves a heavy salty taste in your mouth that lasts all day ! anyone who grows have any info on this ? My guess is the grower used epsom ....foliate fed....after the plant was flowering......
can you use propane instead of butane?
You can use any of the 12 simple alkanes! As many of you know, the alkane hydrocarbons are simply carbon atoms with hydrogens attached.Quote:

Propane has three atoms, butane four, pentane five, hexane six, heptane seven, octane eight, and so on.......
The stumbling block is that in the USA anyway, they are required by law to add methyl mercaps to propane as a leak odor detector. The threshold sensory level for methyl mercaps is 2 parts per billionth, and they are extremely hard to remove, besides smelling and tasting like rotten eggs.
If you can get a clean source, it will without question work.
One advantage to using the longer molecule chains, is that they become less polar as they get longer, and pick up less water solubles.
The disadvantage is that the longer the chain, the harder it is to purge.
