Hey man I just found a used Tasmisium extractor with 6lbs of 99.99%n- butane! He listed it for 2200$ that is like full price... My question is do I have to have the nbutane? Is it really better? As I write this I want it so bad. Would you consider 1600$ a lowball ? For used products I usually consider 74% of purchased price fair..
What's your input should I just go for it? Is the extractor so nice that I will want the 8oz version? Thanks for any advice

first ive ever heard of something like that, Or.... you didnt finish cooking it down and were seeing an iso'd down version of what your oil actualy is, i bet if you take that "black goo" and spread it on a rollie, its Super dark golden colored.

cooking it down? i let it air dry for 6 hours with a fan over it, then scraped it up and put it on parchment paper ( it was golden colored)

put it in the freezer for about a half hour, then left it on the counter to dry up for the night

iso isnt like bho, YOU HAVE TO HEAT IT! you cannot lower the viscosity of the oil enough to finish evaporation of the isopropyl... putting it in the freezer significantly lowered the viscosity and in turn, Trapped the remaining solvent within your oil. leaving it out on counter as a final step is a good move, however i stand by my position that it Needs to be heated to remove the remaining solvent.

Hey Oakley, damn good!! Did a batch today - trying a little twist on your method - can't wait till it dries.

I've been smearing some on the paper when I roll a J. HOLY SMOKES!! GOOD SHIT!!

If I knew it was this easy, I would have been doing it a long time ago!

seriously? my product turned out pretty good, i'm very curious about this now though...

i don't want to heat anything flammable to be honest, there's no other way about it?

Put the container in warm water, don't heat it.

Right?

dude i do it on the stove in my kitchen.... lots of ventilation, no open flame/spark.... its not like butane it wont "explode" it will flare up... hell i used to know guys that BURNED their oil down to cook it lol

open some doors/windows, get a fan no issues... or use a hot plate in a garage/shed... theres lots of methods if you would like some really detailed info on how to do it, what to look for when doing it etc... message me privately! :)

I'm gonna use a bigger container to hold the weed and filter, so it'll take a couple seconds longer for the alcohol to pass through and go through the filter.

Can I pm pics? I'm not yet comfortable putting much in the open forum.

I just don't understand why I need to heat it instead of letting it air dry after I freeze it?

Just try a batch like that sometime?
