iv made bho and iso many times....but i still wonder how to yield the most OIL at the most efficient cost??? do i use more trim per can and gas each load 2 times or do i use less and use one can for each load? i guess i should do a controlled experiment but just trying to get a easy answer hahah i love this time of year and im sure all know why....so do any of you have a good method of this........ maybe i just need to go get a tanisum or whatever they are called or maby just make something so i can reuse the butane but in the mean time wanna get this down......rep to help:leaf:

Enough to cover the weed in the tube and then some. I blow mine through a 300ml coke bottle with about 300ml of gas. Don't seem to get much more with a second run and get less if I use less gas so I figure it's about right.

This is a part of running BHO that tons of people have questions about, and the answer still isn't 100% known.
However, first you have to think about whether you are willing to sacrifice the qualitiy of your BHO for a little extra BHO.

For example, i have a tube that holds 1 ounce of broken down nugs.
I can run 1 can then a half if needed through, and get about 5 grams of pure nectar.
If i were to run that extra half a can, or another can, i risk over blasting the material and getting more than just the precious trichs.
You risk getting Chlorophyll, plant waxes, and other plant matter into your oil, degrading the quality, the more butane you run.

You run a higher risk of getting these impurities in your oil if you grind your material before running.

I would run 1 to 1 and a half cans of butane per 1 Oz. of material to ensure quality.
To maximize yield i would focus on making sure your tube is packed correctly, evenly, tight but not too tight.
Also a big factor to yield is the starting material, If your bud has large trich heads or small trich heads, and the amount of trichs.

Quality in and quality out, it is not worth sacrificing quality for quantity.
