A small fire at a West Berkeley business Tuesday, which sent a man to a San Francisco burn center for treatment, appears to have been caused by what police described Wednesday as a hashish production operation.

Don’t they often use butane to separate the oil from the plant matter?

I’ve heard this, but don’t understand how. Is hashish an oil?

Dont they often use butane to separate the oil from the plant matter? Yes. The process involves pouring liquid butane into an open dish, then heating the mixture to boil the butane off.

Reminds me of how illegal alcohol stills used to explode during Prohibition. That doesn't seem to happen anymore. Hmmmm ...
