The point (beauty) of the butane honey oil extraction is that butane is just an awesome solvent for extracting the THC without the additional crap. That's why it's not green.
The ice method or similar methods are mechanical as opposed to chemical. Using mechanical methods you will not strip off all the resin and you will also have impurities. If you had a full O-chem lab you could set up a reflux apparatus with a water cooled condenser and reflux for three hours with a good solvent and then use a suction powered filter to separate the plant material from the solvent portion. Then you would use diethyl-ether to separate the water soluble components from the oil components. Then you would boil off your ether and be left with honey oil.
Or you can just pass butane through it and have a well extracted and purified product. Really, as a guy who has been formally trained in these techniques the mechanical methods are stone aged compared to the butane method. If you want more yield you mix in some good ground product. The whole point of making hash is to get as much of the good stuff out of the crap plant material. IDK, how the butane method compares to a proper laboratory extraction but it is clearly head and shoulders above those ice bags.
If you guys want, I could do a full write up on a full out laboratory extraction and purification but you will need to buy some equipment. Really, if you factor in the equipment cost and time, the butane extraction really is a beautiful thing.

Just don't use cheapo butane, because you could end up smoking poisonous impurities.

1 word BUTANE bro.
just shoot it through, let it sit , scrape , smoke.

Yes. That can't be stressed enough. There are a couple of youtube videos showing how it's done and what butane to buy.
There is also this guy who sells an apperatus that is a ss pipe with a stand, screen on the bottom and a stopper in the top for around $100. A fair price for not having to dick around making one IMO.

Check out Fdd's threads on it. Nuff said.
