Butane VS Material Chart

How much butane should I use to fit the material ? Is there any chart with that ?

How are you extracting?

As a rule of thumb, I plan on a three column volume flood with a Terpenator, though actually measure it by observing what is going on through the sight glasses. Two from the bottom and one rinse from the top.

I ASSume a packed column only has room for about 80% LPG left, because it will still soak into the material present. That of course varies with material and packing as well.

Column volume is .7854D2 X length.

One cubic inch of butane weighs .0216961 lbs.
