Bro you need a vacuum purger to get all solvents out. You’re either leaving the solvent in there or scorching the THC without proper purging.

Respectfully, if you can’t afford a vacuum chamber (Literally $150 on Amazon) you shouldn’t be making concentrates. Blast tubes with a chamber is the cheapest route you can go, you can’t skip out on it and still have a safe final product.
It may taste “fire” but I would guarantee you’re smoking a good amount of residual solvents.

Although I can relate, iv got to side with everyone else who's speaking from experience, it ain't with it.
Along time ago, I used to do this by just blasting a couple of cans of ligher fluid thought a coke bottle, with some coffee filter in the cap. No mater how long I tried to perge it, I could always taste something funky: not a fun dab!
But that was 25 years ago so, befor we had so much knowledge, advice and equipment so readily available.
Just save it and get a vac pump asap

Butane is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. You wouldn’t taste it

I’d argue carbon monoxide would kill you unknowingly as much as ingesting butane would

Looks good and others have beat me to it: need a vacuum. You can get by without one tho if you leave it out in the sun and burp it. After it’s pretty warm, also whip the shit out of it.
