Can I ask what brand/type of butane you use.i am only yielding about 10%. I have heard that different brands of butane canWell it depends... If i use my extraction tube i usually do a half oz, and i get about 3-4g back. If i have less than my tube can do and just want to do a quicky little gram extract i open air spray thru a cloth into a jar, about 1/2" then drop like 2-3g of grinder kief in for about 15-20min, swish it around once in while...
For filter i use 2x stainless steel 50nm screens.
Local smokeshop by me sells Special Blue 540ml thats 9xCan I ask what brand/type of butane you use.i am only yielding about 10%. I have heard that different brands of butane can
Can make a difference to yields
I have read that there are some that believe certain butane is better for yield...that is why I was asking. The two strains that I have been using is gorilla glue 4 and granddaddy purpleButane does not determine yield, genetics is the big factor.
I personally use puretane its 11x refined with no added lubricating oils or metcaptin the rotten egg smell they add so you can easily detect a leak.
It about 10$ per can
I have been distil my butane before running any product. I am basically just doing a dry run. I am using Colibri 1925. They claim 99.4% pure but I still find “ mystery oil” after distilling.I use Neon 11x but have used Vector too. The main thing is not to see any residue when the butane is sprayed on a mirror. Less refined fuel and lubricant additives will leave residue.
Ok so my yields are normal? That's good to know...I read some guys claiming 20%At 10% weight your getting the upper concentrate back. Average I usually get I s 8-12% average and depending on how resinous the starting material is
20% would be all the thc in some good bud, i probably get that in two blasts. Gram and a half, then another gram from a half z.Ok so my yields are normal? That's good to know...I read some guys claiming 20%
