Ok so I've went ahead and whipped up a batch:
Its good to pack the tube nice and snug and tight. But not super tight
I ran the butane through the extractor into my pyrex dish.
After most of the butane has evaporated, the oil formed on the bottom of the dish

The next thing I do is cut out a small piece of parchment paper. I transfer the oil off the pyrex dish and on top of a piece of parchment paper. Place the paper in the canister and vacuum to -25hg I leave it sealed in the jar for about 10 minutes. Then cook in my oven under pressure for 30 seconds at 170F. I repeat the vacuum purge and oven steps 3 times until the butane is purged and the oil turns golden blonde, or golden brown (depending on the strain) The vacuum purge is optional. If you prefer to "whip" your oil into budder, then thats fine too. I prefer the vacuum purge method because the final product comes out more pure IMO. smokes better, tastes better. It also saves time, and energy. Again the vacuum purge technique is NOT required, its just MY prefered method. The last picture is of the final product drying. Should be ready in about an hour.

I got mine at harbor frieght tools. They are also sold on ebay fairly cheap. If you have a foodsaver machine already, then thats good enouph. I'm sure it works just fine.
