BHO question
#18869719 - 09/20/13 09:22 PM (10 years, 5 months ago) |

Does it truly make a difference which type of butane you use for BHO extractions?
More specifically does how "refined" it supposedly is make a difference. I'm currently using Ronson brand

No shit it matters. You want to be using as pure of butane as you can find. Not just any old 'tane will do. If you did research on making BHO there should have been some point where you should have figured out that there are some brands of butane that are safe. It is clear you didn't get to this point.
Please go do more research before you go blasting anymore.

Seems to have worked perfectly fine. The oil is great and I'm stoned as shit right now.
Could anyone be more specific about exactly what the difference is because I see no reason why I'm wrong here.

Butane that is sold as fuel in the us contains a compound that gives it that terrible smell. That would be a good reason why you wouldn't want to use it,

Well it doesn't smell. I also read on different forums of people claiming that even the ones that do smell aren't a problem, but mine doesn't smell.
I think that its funny that so many people have told me that I'm wrong and yet not one person has real evidence to back up they're claim.

Maybe you think the oil you made is great, but it tastes like ass to people with more experience.
Not to mention the industrial by-products that will be present in your product, and not in a product that uses refined butane.
I bet your oil tastes like sulfurs.

One of the properties of the mercaptan additives is that despite smelling horrible, you temporarily lose the ability to smell them after a short period of continuous exposure.
In other words, they stink so bad you can't smell them.

Im pretty sure Vector quad refined is like $3 per can, why would you not go the safe route regardless? Lighter butane is different than butane that marketed for blasting bho

I bet your wrong. I use a $300 dollar Liquidizer machine that was featured in the top products list of high times. My butane is the only thing in question not my extraction methods.
What bi products exactly are you referring to and why would they not be purged out of my final product? With the right extraction methods I still see no problem here.
Please have a little more supporting evidence before posting. You seem very arrogant.

What exactly is different about it? I paid 6 bucks a can. Ronson brand was all I could find without ordering some online. What does "quad refined" truly mean anyways?

Yea there is this aromatic they put in fuels to help people tell there is a leak. It's SUPER STRONG!
Make sure your butane doesn't have that(additive free)

Go to a smoke shop/glass shop, they usually carry butane. I've even heard of dispensaries carrying butane. But for god sakes DONT use butane unless its meant for BHO, which usually says triple or quad refined. I have seen the scientific studies that shows the toxicity of the additives in canned butane, but youre high af if you think im gonna go through google and pull them up lol. They're posted up in the BHO sections of rollitup forum I believe, or it might have been grasscity forum People wouldnt tell you not to if there wasn't a good reason for it. Get the good butane man, your lungs and health are worth it, as well as anyone you share your bho with.

i've always used vector, just because it's what i've been recommended and i've never had any complaints using it.but i have had BHO made with shitty butane, and it's noticeable. so just dont accept less than the purest butane. ALSO if you're making BHO don't cheap out and use pvc pipes.

I like these. 5$ at the smoke shop.
 It's 5x refined butane.
It works GREAT with A LOT of shake get 2-3 cans just in case...extracting takes up a lot lol

to see the purity of your butane you can always spray a bit out into your pyrex without weed or anything and see if it leaves residue. if it does thats probably some nasty shit to be smoking.
5x all day. go with very refined stuff. even if the cost might be more, you arent getting a lung infection from god knows what.. ya know?

Honestly, why are people using butane as a solvent when there are perfectly good alkanes that are liquids at room temperature? I mean, if it is a volatility thing, then you're just being lazy and impatient. Christ, three cans to do an extraction? Did it ever occur to anyone that maybe the reason you need so much is because 90% of it evaporates before it can dissolve anything?
This reeks of being a stupid fad that has no actual scientific basis.

I don't know why you would say it has no scientific basis, obviously it really does work.
