id do it on your porch, or leave the kitchen fan on as well as all your windows, if you got good airflow and you get all the bongs and shit out of the vicinity you should have to worry about blowing up.

I like some good kief that's a nice lite gold color that just melts and bubbles never Burns. Ill make bho after I got all the best trichomes for some superb kief

i just don't take any chances..i wait for a nice day and go outside and let her rip... i am probably going to wait until i can buy or build an extractor that recycles the butane before i run any more and do dry ice in the mean time.....i am kinda paranoid when i make bho..i keep my cell phone inside and have nothing close to me that can spark...

This is what we do to mouldy buds. Thats a glass bread pan.
I've learned that if you heat your material is becomes quite liquid
and can be poured into various things. Great way of getting
every last bit out of your glassware.

There is absolutely nothing like the odour of terpines coming
off 230 degree hash oil when you're decarbing it.

i see what you mean, as long as youve got air flow you shouldnt have a problem although. that sounds like a sweet extractor though, pm if you find a way. i may try dry ice has soon as well, just gotta wait till september to harvest.

220 micron bag is too big and is why your hash is green and not blonde like it should be. nicely pressed medallions though!

edit: for reference, bubble bags, 220 micron is the same size as the work bag which is the very first pull that holds the plant material.
