Not wrong, but I can taste the difference. Seems like you can taste the propane stuck on the nail.

They say to not use propane torches, those butane torches are already too hot.
Its not a hate for butane, its that they use lighter fluid instead, pretending its butane. I went to school for chemistry, butane itself is not the issue. Its whatever is in them cans that smells like rubber cement (sulfur), including the propane you speak of.
Yeah I use a torch. Sometime I use my herb iron and a three hole bowl.

I went to airgas and ordered some n-butane. It is food grade butane I believe. I literally make oil 2-3 times a week and sick of buying butane. Looks like I gotta build a rack to hold it upside down? I got to figure out the fittings from the tank to the tube.
Also a homade tammy sound like it would be necesarry. I don't want to waste the ntane

Graingers should have the supplies you need to adapt the tank. I can link you with my tami knock off guy if you want.

I've got some fabricators, machinists and cnc specialist in my immediate family. I have access to a real tammy to copy. I'll post the build. All my retired family members are always looking for something to make. Remember I live in Michigan, and all the plants closed, everyone took there machine they worked on for 25+ years..
Airgas said the tank would be in today. A 100# tank of ntane. It's waaaaay cheaper than I thought.
Have you used ntane? Or watched anybody use it? food grade is right? I didn't tell them I was extracting. I just picked food grade when they gave me the option.

You need to tell AirGas to fit your n-butane tank with an eductor tube. That is how you get the butane to come out as a liquid

Cool thanks.

big rule of thumb here. ice means too cold. water is condensing out of the air into your extract. the water needs to be warm and touching your pan, bottom and sides, to prevent this from happening.

I always have warm water in the pan underneath, would running fresh/frozen material have anything to do with the ice? or is it just frozen solidified oil? Looks like it could be either...

Warmwater when I spray? That's news to me..

Yep. It helps bring up the temperature of the freshly sprayed butane. Resulting in a faster evap.

OMG would everyone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE inform yourself on the basic methods of open blasting.
I hate teaching solvent extraction but there are some serious issues here to be addressed.

Now that you have read every word on this linked article above.... fresh frozen erlz, thermos tech, dry ice, best taste possible. you did go read that?

It prevents condensation on the edges of the erl. This is the main reason, the warm water needs to be touching the pan on the bottom.... and sides of the pan if you are dummy who blasts so fast that you have a pool of gases in your pan.Yep. It helps bring up the temperature of the freshly sprayed butane. Resulting in a faster evap.
If you have a pool of gases in your pan, you are not doing it safely. Slow down and/or use less lighter fluid.

No offense sir, but I have read ALL of that. The problem I believe is as you stated "not doing it safely" I tend to do 40-50 gram runs lol. Take fuckin forever to purge though anyways so maybe I will try to keep it to 10-15 grams per dish...OMG would everyone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE inform yourself on the basic methods of open blasting.

And I am not a DUMMY... Ok yes, I am but that's not the point lol... But there is a difference between being dumb and having a lot of material to work through
But it makes sense since it only really started happening when I started doing larger runs, so I'll slow down and do it proppa like I should
