    Default Where to buy Food Grade Butane

    Hey everyone! I currently live in NY which is a non-med state so finding people that know how to make BHO is impossible where I am. I have been doing lots of research on making it and feel confident I will be able to make it properly, The only issue I have come upon is finding Food Grade Butane. I have never seen it before or even heard of it before searching BHO. Does anyone know where I can buy it from. Either in a store or online. Im guessing Wal*Mart is a no go on it probably as well as the Food store likes Hannaford, Price Chopper, Shop Rite are also no go's. Would bakerys? I have found cigarette stores sell nitrious oxide so I will check them first but im guess It will also be a fail because people cant huff food grade butane so odds of them actually selling cans of it are slim to none so they wont carry it if people dont buy it.
    People where I live think BHO is some special designer drug like X, LOL people really here think dabs are like crack, heroin and crack mixed heroin or some shit. so odds are no ones making it. People here finally found out about medicated candys and foods so chances are people here will know what BHO is by 2014.

    ive never hear of food grade butane, what would you use butane in? go to a good cigar/tobacco shop, they will sell a quality butane for good lighters. make sure to get at least 4-5x refined butane.

    You can purchase pure n-butane from local gas distributors or the big guys like airgas.

    Even 5x and 7x are blends and contain other gasses like propane which will all have different boiling points making a true 100% purge impossible.

    n-butane is pure butane and is often referred to a medical grade butane. I think this is what is used in food products etc as well. This is the solvent of choice for PRO status BHO production, a n-butane blast followed by a 27+ atmosphere vacuum purge. I still wont touch the stuff. RO ice and water IWE all the way for my organic and veganic precious resins! IMO shortcuts lead to bad things in the medical cannabis production processes.

    Sr. Verdes concentrate corner has all the info you crave and a whole lot more. They talk about all the gas options and where to buy and how much they pay. Head shops CAN cut you a deal if you want the 5x/7x blends, my bro (whose oil I will not consume as he does not purge correctly) is paying less than $4 per can for cases at a local head shop, talk to the manager/owner.

    There isn't a food grade butane. Co2 is food grade/medical grade as its fit for human consumption. There is isobutane used in culinary torches for browning and such, but nothing intended for consumption as its spiked w EtSH.

    Food grade=99.5% n-butane or higher. I get it for 350$ a lp5 container. Which is 5 gallons. I'm a cook. And there is food grade. The butane purges naturally at regular atmosphereic pressure in a non viscous solution. When ezteacting with essential oils you need a vacuum pump. Search your area for a specialty had store. They should be able to help you. Say you service refrigerators and you have a special poject or something.
