Hi folks, just saw this thread and figured Id add my 2cents.
I made this once to trial, just using leaf matter and came up with some nice yellow honey type oil that was a bit like blue tack.
It worked well and so I decided to put a bit more thought into the process and try another way of containing the end product.
So I went to the local kitchen appliance store and bought a nice thick sundae glass (about 1/2 a foot high, thick glass, with sloping sides). I used chopped up stem, leave and some of the smaller shittier heads I didnt want to keep. Ground it all up and squirted 2 x 300ml gas cans through it and into the sundae glass.
It took a lot longer for the butane to evaporate and I kept stirring it to keep any solid bits forming. I kept it under a gentle heat for about 3 or 4 hours until it seemed all the butane was out, then left it overnight for good measure.
What I was left with was about 5mm of deep brown/red oil in the bottom of the glass and the consistency of thick honey. I am not sure why it didnt turn out the yellow/creamy blue tack kind like the last lot. But this stuff seems much more potent.
I have a skewer that I leave in the glass and just dip it out when I want to smoke.
To smoke Ive found putting a few drops in a clean oil burner and a straw works well, but takes ages and is rough as guts. Another way is just to drip a drop or two onto a joint and smoke it. This is more wasteful but lighter on the throat and nicer to smoke.
This stuff is awesome.
