not the process, i got that down.
im talking the trim handling,


last i remember, folks were freezing their trim till time to process.
seems like it would degrade the water soluable canniboids and introduce alot of plant liquids into the final product you wouldnt ever get running fresh trip


whats the word these days,
how do you prefer doing it?

I rather freeze my trim when it's fresh , when they are dry they easily crumble to dust that will pass through the 1st screen , making your hash green because of the leaf mater .
May the Penis be with you .

thanks guys,
i remember the quandary

i remember reading folks would run their trim twice. first time with very gentile aggitation in the ice water for only 5 minutes or so. the next run was with the mixer.

Fresh allows fer easier pulverization of the plant material.


Bone dry.....ain't no green in there.... :dunno: ....

Very nice hash Bob ! ... and like you said it's "in the whippin (stirrin)" ... I'm guessing you slowly stir with a wooden spoon since it's dry .... I mix my fresh material with a paint mixer hooked onto a power-drill .
May the Penis be with you .

do you actually use ice?
when i saw how incorperated plant material became with the ice i couldnt bring myself to do the first screen till it had all melted

thats a significant period of time ive yet to mentioned by anyone else in this process

Temp, time, & technique are critical.

Freeze yer material. Deep freeze yer ice & material if possible. Use water as cold as you kin git it. It is the cold temps that make the trichs brittle...and keeps the plant material from soakin up moisture (which allows the plant material to pulverize easier). Smaller ice is better than large ice. I've wondered how well a slurpy machine, usin all that chipped ice, would work.

Do it quick. The longer ya take...the more the temp rises, the more the material soaks up moisture, the more shit will fall apart. I go 10 minutes...maybe 15 tops.

Whip it, whip it good...gotta git that froth. I tried a paint mixer at Hashcravers pad...worked ok, but doesn't quite git the right synergy goin on. Now I use a 5gal paint paddle to stir with, using that same liftin & turnin motion ya use to stir paint with, bringin the bottom stuff up & pushin the top stuff down...only faster. Gits the whole buckit of ice rollin like a grinder, not jus where the stirrin implement is. You want that ice grindin up against each other, not bangin into each other. The bangin jus pulverizes shit. When ya git it right, ya git a nice tan froth on top.


We do jus the trash bag (largest screen size) in a bucket first. Keep pullin it up so that the ice stays even from the top of the water to the bottom of the bag. Lotsa ice still left when done stirrin...the whole lot gitz tossed on the compost when done, ice & all. All that's left is sediment in the buckit, which then gitz filtered through the next size down bag in another buckit...use cold water spray to rinse particles down to the screen. Hash is scraped from the screen, and the new sediment is run through the next screen & buckit, and so forth, until the final sediment is dumped with the water on the compost. The coffee filter screen ain't worth savin, so I don't bother runnin that low...I stop at the size right b'fore that.


Or, if ya got a lot to do, you kin always go Hashcraver's route & git a dedicated washin machine, & run the discharge into yer bubble bags. :mrgreen:
