Hello all,
I am just after a little advice. I've done BHO before and love the product. Also used acetone many many moons ago but at the time I knew nothing and let it soak for quite a while. Ended up with a thick dark green/black oil that was not very good at all.
Now I have two 60Lt rubbish bin's full of decent quality trim and small buds with a bit of shade leaf in there too.
I've spent a few hours last night going through can's and can's of butane but there has to be a better way!! I also don't want to look like a deviate buying out my local stores and having 100's of empty cans to dispose of.
I've done 3 runs of BHO and have not even dented my stock's of weed. Each run I was using a can and a half of butane.
Is there a quick easy method I should be looking at doing to create some half decent oil? Has anyone ever had a similar experience with processing larger quantities? How did you do it and what tricks did you find helped?
ISO is kind of hard to find and expensive in my area, and again I think I would look like a deviate buying up bottles and bottles of the stuff.
I am thinking acetone may be the way to go. I could buy a couple of bottles from different hardware stores and try to perform a quick wash before filtering BACK into the acetone containers. From here I could boil it off in a rice cooker(outdoors, well ventilated) and as it reduces add from my stored bottles of acetone/oil mix until its all gone. Finally I could tip it out into a flat glass pyrex container before it reduces too much and lightly cover, letting it sit for a few weeks to slow purge before heat purging and scraping it all up for storage.
I know a lot of people have concerns with acetone but I will be sure to purge it extensively and will get a test bottle first to evap in a glass pan to test for residue. If it passes I will stick to that brand.
Any advice/hints are very much appreciated!!
