so i have a whole quart jar packed tight with vape leftovers...has anyone ever tried to use a butane extraction process with vape leftovers...do you think it would produce anything worth the process....what do you guys do with your left overs...

They're spent. I just add them to a compost pile. I seriously doubt there is anything left to extract. However, this is only because I have revaped leftovers when in desparation with zero effect.

I probably have nearly 100gs of vaped bud now, going to make a few sticks soon :lol:


butter tastes fine, as long as you remove the material from the butter :dunce:

I smoke about a gram a day, and that above batch of brownies was ridiculous.. i never actually ate a full one. the most I ate in one go was a half brownie... and that would get me straight STONED for 5 hours.. I would eat a corner and have difficulty acting normal :lol:

You don't want to cook with it. You want to cook with an extract you make from it. To clarify, you've already vaporized the THC, the extract is to pull other oils from the plant tissue.

I was about to call you out on some shit, then I realized what you were saying :lol: & I agree, but found it slightly confusing... so to clarify:

Yes, you don't cook with the weed ITSELF, you make weed BUTTER/oil with the left overs, and then cook with the butter/oil

Pretty much I vaporize until there is HARDLY any vapor coming from the bowl.. then I dump it into a jar... that 'hardly anything' vapor, bowl after bowl starts to add up. After probably 200-250 bowls, you have at least 8 STRONG highs worth of 'left over' vapor, and anything else not on the surface area.

Basically, it all adds up... i vape my shit down to pretty much nothing. If you dump your bowls earlier, obviously you will only need LESS vaped weed to make a butter/oil to cook with.

I see what you're saying. Our intent is different, you are reclaiming THC that wasn't completely vaporized, mine was to go after other oils contained within cannabis that don't necessarily get you high but have other medicinal value.

Well I believe both happen.

You have to expose the bud for like 90 seconds to the hot air to rid the material of almost all psychoactive compounds. However, you probably stop seeing any type of dense vapor after like 50-60 seconds... So really most people are probably dumping their bowls before it's all completely gone.

But then there would be other oils and what not inside that haven't been vaped either

i think its uneccessary recycling. it should go in the trash IMO

i hardly like making bubble with trim rather than buds.

i like the idea of recycling. as someone who enjoys vape periodically only to the point of the essence being @ 70% percent hit, there must be plenty -thc/cbd, etc...- left over.

ppl can def. benefit from this residual biproduct, however i'm not so sure that i'd make the effort unless something better wasn't available. sugar leaf trim would be my second choice, after bud. the cbd's in the vapo butter may help certain patients get pain relief and sleep better, as well. perhaps i'll make a batch from some leftovers and turn em into a new cookie event, like ginger snaps. i have an amigo that uses 2 Boxes of Ghirardelli choc. brownie box mix/tray and the results r superb.

many other tasks to complete b4

Dude.. I bet if you ate just ONE of my brownies, you wouldn't be able to go outside you would be straight laid out on the softest thing in the room for a few hours yelling "HOLY FUCK! HOLY FUCK!"

:lol: :lol:

the same shit that usually goes in the trash, no nasty taste in butter, just straight ganja
