This process is referred to as the butane hash oil (BHO) extraction.īecause butane is highly flammable, shatter shouldn’t be made at home. It pulls THC along with other cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant material. The most common solvent used for making shatter is butane. Shatter is produced through solvent-based extraction. This product requires higher extraction temperatures to achieve the highest cannabinoid content, which destroys its many terpenes.īecause of that, shatter is pretty bland compared to other concentrates. The potency comes at the cost of shatter’s flavor. Shatter boasts extremely high potency, with around 80% THC on average. Your shatter may also vary in transparency and intensity of color depending on a range of factors, such as the number of terpenes and moisture levels, as well as heat the concentrate gets in contact with. Cold shatter looks like a sheet of glass, but when heated, it looks more like thick honey. The final consistency of shatter depends on its temperature. Shatter is the purest form of concentrated cannabis that resembles a hard candy in texture.
