This is a [[tutorial index|tutorial]] for the extraction of a resin from [[cannabis]] plant material using liquid butane as a solvent (commonly referred to as '''Butane Hash Oil''', '''Butane Honey Oil''', or '''B.H.O.'''). It is a highly concentrated form of cannabis extracts containing many of its cannabinoids and terpenes.

Before starting, readers should be aware that performing this type of extraction indoors is considered to be inherently dangerous due to the unpredictable flammable and explosive natures of the materials involved, many of which can lead to property damage, serious bodily injury, or death.

Despite the attempt at creating a highly optimized and simplified version of this extraction, it should be noted that it still requires some more advanced technical equipment (e.g. a '''vacuum pump'''). This procedure should not be performed if one cannot afford to acquire these essential pieces of equipment as there is no way to safely substitute them with something else.
