hey MEG just had a look at the link its not so clear on how much you use or what you do with the end product hes saying you wait for the butane to evaporate and do it again... do what again? lol
also what if you have a lot of trim like a sack full is this the only way to do it? i use an bubble sack / ice-O-lator and thats a drain but you can use a lot more than what you can fit in that white tube....
Come on WHO.D show us your methods dude

Come on WHO.D show us your methods dude
Here dude this is a tutorial on how to MAKE a BHO extractor (I make them for friends and sell them on the internet see pictures below);
Honey Oil Production
This method has its basis in a fascinating industrial extraction method known as Supercritical Fluid Extraction. It uses totally over-the-counter butane gas as the extraction solvent and requires nothing even remotely suspicious or difficult to purchase.
Butane, and perhaps other gas/solvents with similar ultra-low-boiling properties, selectively solvate the desirable fraction(s) of cannabis oils. Pulling out only a beautiful amber "honey oil" and leaving the undesirable vegetative oils, waxes, chlorophyll, etc. behind in the plant matter. Even unsmokable shade leaves produce a wonderfully clean and potent gold oil with this method. There is every reason to suspect that this would work splendidly to extract a super-strong and tasty oil from gross, unpalatable "schwag" too. Of course, the better grade of herb you put it in, the better the resulting oil.
Note that the amount of honey oil resulting is very low. As we all know, cannabis leaf and bud varies in THC content and with a perfect extraction, the yield will be less than a gram of oil from each ounce of LEAF and between 1 and 3 grams of oil from each ounce of HIGH POTENCY BUD.
The primary use for this technique is to render leaf into a form more appropriate for medical use by removing other tars and ash-producing material from the psychoactive principals.
What you'll need:
-Herb
-Good butane. quality, triple refined butane is essential. NO RONSON BRAND. King and Colibri work great. 6-8 OZ cans are the best.
-Screens: Either stainless steel (preferred) or coffee filter
-Hose clamp or zip ties to hold screen in place
-Pyrex dish
-Pan to heat water in
-Water
-Gloves
-Goggles
-Outside area to do extraction
THE TUBE
Place the included coffee filter/steel screen over the open end of the tube and secure tightly. Make sure the coffee filter is INSIDE of the steel screen, it will filter smaller particles. This is the bottom of the tube. If using coffee filters, trim the excess paper so that goo doesn't get stuck on it. Affix your screen/filter using either a hose clamp or zip ties. Make sure it stays in place by jerking it either direction: Again, you don't want your butane to blow the filter/screen off, that would be just as bad as blowing out of the top.
After the filter/screen is in place, fill the pipe up with plant matter that has been worked into a coarse powder. You want it filled, but not packed down tight. Whole, not broken up, buds can be used for a more clear oil. Then that bud can be ground up and "re-run". Grinding these buds will allow for more trichome exposure. The yield from this 2nd run will be smaller and more than likely darker.
Place the top end cap on the pipe. Again, push it on as securely as you can by hand.
THE EXTRACTION
Find a location outdoors with a decent breeze. You want these butane fumes to be quickly carried away. Seriously.
If you don't wear gloves, goggles, a mask and do it outside, you might as well not even do it. this is not a joke.
Mount the tube (single hole-side up) over a vessel that can hold 300mL+. Pyrex dishes work great. A lab stand and clamp are ideal for the mounting, but a regular shop clamp or anything that can hold it sturdily is fine. (Avoid metal if you can, to reduce the chance of sparks.) Position the bottom end of the pipe immediately above (1-2") the receiving vessel to eliminate splatter loss.
Turn the butane gas can upside down and dispense the gas into the tube via the single top hole. An 8-oz can takes about 10-12 seconds to evacuate. Be brave, swift, and careful. A spark at this moment would spell disaster since you have basically created an incendiary explosive device that is leaking.
Use 12-16 ounces of butane per full tube of plant matter. The tube will hold approximately 1 oz of plant. Take a 15 second break between cans.
When you've exhausted the can into the pipe, back off to a nice distance and let it do its thing.
The butane moves down the pipe, extracting the cannabis as it goes. When it gets to the bottom, ~30 seconds after dispensing, it begins to drain into the receiving vessel. Notice the pale, glowing yellow-green-gold hue of the extract. It is obvious no chlorophyll was pulled out of the herb.
Over approximately five to eight minutes, prolly quicker, the butane extract will finish draining from the pipe to the receiving vessel. Maintain caution with the pipe, however, since there is a lot of residual butane still evaporating from within the pipe. Notice the stream of fumes coming from the top hole. When it slows down to a drop every few seconds, you can tap on the top hole with your finger and it will help push the last of the liquid butane out. Remember, NO SMOKING!!!!!
Being very low-boiling and volatile, the collected butane will likely begin boiling at ambient temperature. The receiving vessel will gradually frost up as the butane cools it down, slowing down its rate of evaporation. One can speed this up again simply by holding it in your hands. A better way is to set it in a saucepan containing a little bit of warm water. NOT BOILING. Cold butane can have a violent reaction if submeged into boiling water. Watch the butane start bubbling madly with the increase in temperature. Again, be doing this outdoors with a nice breeze! It takes about 20 minutes or so to allow the butane to evaporate, or much quicker if you help it along. You are left with a deep amber, almost orange oil of amazing purity.
Place the dish on a heating pad for an hour or so to evap the last of the butane. Remove from the pad and allow to cool. Use a razor to scrape the goo into a "pile".
COLLECTION & STORAGE
You can simply leave it in the pyrex dish or move it to a smaller, non pourus container.
Another way to collect and store the oil is to let all of the butane evaporate off and then redissolve the oil in some anhydrous or high-% alcohol, and then pour this into a vial and let it sit out for a day or two to allow the alcohol to evaporate. Trying to transfer the oil into a small container while it is still solvated by the butane is too risky. This was learned the hard way about this, thanks to the volatile temperament of butane. I had filled a vial almost all the way to the top and was preparing to drop those last couple drops in, so that cleverly, I could let the last of the butane evaporate from the vial and the oil would all be neatly contained. However, when the last drop hit the mother lode in the vial, it changed the temperature of the solution in the vial upward by a hair and it all "superboiled" out of the vial and onto my fingers, which of course startled me and caused me to drop the vial. I suggest dissolving it in alcohol as I mentioned above. If you can get pure or 99% isopropanol (isopropyl), use it, because THC's photosensitivity reportedly does not occur in isopropanol.
The final product is a deep yellow-amber oil of the highest quality, incredibly pure and potent. Note also that this oil has a somewhat higher melt/vaporization point than traditional hash oils; the traditional dispensing method (dipping a needle or paper clip in, getting some goop on the end, and warming it with a flame to get it to drip off into your bowl) still works with this stuff, but it seems you have to be more careful with it because it doesn't heat to liquid state as quickly or in the same manner, and it can more easily be allowed to burn up on your needle. So be careful.
Honey oil is BACK!
NOTE: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE! *** DO NOT SMOKE WHILE DOING THIS *****

The white pvc is a no-no as it leeches toxins and melts. At least that's what I've always been told. You want to go with the black stuff (ABS) instead.
The white pipe is PVC (Poly-vinyl Chloride)
The black pipe is ABS(Acylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene).
I have an ABS extractor and one I made out of a stainless steel drink shaker. Stainless steel seems messier and gets a whole lot colder. I love my ABS extractor.

I was told to use a turkey baster...
Yep that was a prototype... ur right and my tutorial doesn't reflect that.
I was looking for a glassblower to make them outta glass but the retail cost would be very high (no pun intended).
I used the PVC and saw no leeching or melting btw, but switched to black ABS after someone else pointed out what you just said, my bad.

Nice chop Who D. Nice indeed. I'd like to know more about this BHO as well... I've got a 1gal bucket full of trim...and my bubblebags got left at the other house... hmmmm
sorry for lack of attendence guys. everything is dry and it came out to 6.3 pounds... so .72 grams per watt with 23 plants and 4k watts if i can get more trainwreck i might do a big run of that as it was a nice plant and each gave up a half pound when dry...
ill do a bho round in a few days been super busy at the market so to speak...

100+ zips from 23 plants and 4000w on ya first run is a great success Who.D... well done i just hope i can pull off .72 gpw :
Loving the sound of a full trainwreck stadium Gpw+ here you come...
No rush on the BHO... in your own time dude sort ya shit out first....

sup folks, i know i dropped off the map, but im back!
I move in to my new place in a week, and i plan on blowing it out, though i may have to have a barebones disorganized grow fist to get bread for gear, buying a home aint cheap...
heres some of the last of my personal stash
Trainwreck
grape
G-13
did i think ahead and get clones and seeds started, you bet your ass...
oh whats this, a new trainwreck mother, 1gpw+ here i come
ill be starting a new thread soon ill link it here...
later who.d

WOO HOO yess
I'm building my new room in my new house as we speak, Who-D.
Feels kinda nice, but it took me longer to get this project going than I thought it would. All those unexpected expenses before and after close... but at least I'm not renting anymore. My cab's flower room was 1.4 ft x 1.4 ft. My new space is gonna be "huge" in comparison: 2.5 ft. x 7 ft.
Good luck with your new space, homie.

ok so its been a bit more than a week but what can i say, i moved into a new house, and built this grow room...
ik the vid is pretty shitty but ill get a better one soon...
anyway the dimensions are 11x8, i have 4, 8inch exhaust's hook to a 12'' max fan, with 7 6 inch intakes it keeps 3k within 2-3 degrees of ambient easy...
there are 5, 4 foot long shelves made of plexiglass in a U shape... 24 plants...
Who.D's garden
ill get a new thread up when i can get better pics and video, i dont have internet at the house, i couldn't stand having a cable guy in my basement
