~BHO LOVERS~

Is anyone noticing a difference in yields or consistency of their oil which was made by first grinding up the herb in a coffee grinder versus using small airy lower buds and trim and not grinding them up into a powder? Appreciate your time and responses.

you dont want to use a coffee grinder, too many fines are created which will pass through with your extraction. You want the most in tact resin glands as possible. I lightly chop with scissors.

i will say ive been using my coffer grinder to grind up the buds ive been turning into bho.
i use the "stock" mesh screens that came with my tubes.

unless fines are something other than bits and pieces of plant material that pass thru the screen i dont have any thing floating in my oil.... (aka i dont have and bits and pices of plant mateiral floating about)

thanks for explanation

as well as fine bits and pieces (which clearly your screens are filtering out, i tore my "stock" screens a part after repeated use, so i now use coffee filters) it is easier for the butane to pick up the plant waxes and such, which i believe leads to more peanut buttery oil, at least that is how it has been in my experience. Maybe Jump or Gray Wolf could step in with a bit more scientific explanation.

yup grinded herb will give you an oil with more undesirable waxes. if you clean a little up with some everclear and winterize you will see that more waxes were picked up with grinded bud versus chopped bud. you get a more quality product rather than quantity. if quantity is of your main concern then ya grind it up.

yes, untill the bho evaporates.
Peace

Lol, hopefully the bho doesn't evaporate, or at least not until ya vape it.

Nice yield! Whats the strain?

og x diesel, or at least that's what i'm told. Its definitively a diesel, that's for sure.

the only other time i got over 20% is when this same stuff came around a couple months back. I read the og/diesel/chem family yields well, everything else i run comes back 15-18%

I agree, i am always delightfully surprised when I run og.
