BHO because butane is non-polar so is thc which is what you want to extract. Chlorophyll is polar and isopropyl alcohol is partially polar so ISO removes both thc and chlorophyll but butane only removes thc. Hope this helps. I wouldn't not use iso for this reason though I have made some from 99.9% iso and it was amazing.

Guess thats why in the ISO recipes, they say no more than 2 min ISO contact with the trim. Tired of doing bubble although I am getting full melt out now whcih is nice. Just thought I'd try something new. Any BHO tips would be appreciated, tried it once but I ended up with a product which was like super thick maple syrup and it was basically unmanagable, couldn't even move it, just stuck to everything. A huge mess. I might not even have given it more than a day to dry, can't really remember, it was years ago, maybe I needed to do that. The only thing I've seen that may help, assuming drying it longer wasn't the problem, would be mixing it over low heat to try to make a glass or even budder.

Whenever I make iso it comes out really light and powdery. I can press it into a more solid ball but it weighs next to nothing and it doesn't really melt down at all.
Am I doing something wrong?

you made oil man BHO.... its not going to dry lol of course its going to be unmanageable its oil brah, freeze it weigh out pieces if your selling it then put back in the freezer til you flip it, and flip it in glass vials. Welcome to the world of oils sir.
bho will be pure thc.. and unfortunately itll always have even the slightest trace of butane mix residue.. thats fine for some people.. me personally. i use cannabis as a medicine, and thc is not even the tip of the medicinal aspect of cannabis, which is why i use iso extract.. using 91% iso will help keep the chlorophyll out. 99% tends to strip more. whoever posted a couple posts ago relating to iso as to why its powdery.. maybe u arent filtering it properly. should be putting it thru at least a couple of coffee filters when u strain the alchohol after youve stripped off the cannaboid profiles. oh yes the reason why iso extract is more medicinal is because it takes all the cannaboids, not just thc. so bho is if you are just trying to get high, iso is for medicinal uses. i personally add the alcohol in a mason jar with the product im using.. do a 15 second gentle turning/shake, then strain it thru a strainer, then once i have mostly just liquid, ill put that through at least 2 coffee filters, then just let it air dry outside with a fan blowing on it for 12-24 hours, until its all gone, dont worry about what it looks like while its drying, sometimes you will see milky looking liquid its just water.. when its completely dry, you will have a nice layer of oil on the bottom of your pyrex. dont heat it, just scrape it together with a razor and itll ball up sort of in the center. it does not crackle or anything, just a clean melt.
