You got the hang of QWISO by the looks of your pics . If it ain't broke don't fix it. Lol

But doing different shit and learning is fun too haha just be safe. Butane outdoors.

It really is a lot of personal preference and getting a proper technique down. If you do BHO poorly you still get a decent product. If you do Qwiso poorly you get a junk product. Qwiso is "harder" to do right, but as you witnessed it's not really "hard". You just need to follow the right tech to get good results.

I went the alcohol route because:
1-I can't work out doors where I live
2-butane is tougher to properly purge without a vacuum
3-alcohol is cheap and clean
4-when done correctly I alcohol produces just as nice of a concentrate

IPA is an alcohol and is neither non-polar or polar because it has parts that's act as each. (The hydroxide is polar (OH-) and the carbon portion is NON-POLAR or evenly charged) The reason you do the IPA washes so god-dam-cold is to freeze any water based particles or polar particles so they are not dissolved by the polar side of the IPA and water mixture.
