Hash talk

[Gingerbeard]

Safekeeping? It's drugs, man! Drugs are for use FB. You are talking wine. Safekeeping means keeping it safe from someone stealing it. I don't worry about that because people know I share. Is someone stealing your stash? Want me to go have a talk? Or are you talking RCMP?
If it stays lit in the bowl, it is ready. If the resin don't sizzle, it is ready.
I'll modify an old surf adage to your perfect hash ball quest. May you never roll your perfect ball. After that, nothing will ever get better.
The movie Samurai with Tom Cruise and that Japanese guy who dies at the end. The dying Japanese guy spends a lifetime of looking for the perfect cherry blossom. At the end he realizes that all cherry blossoms are perfect.

I'm looking for extraction methods using isopropyl that get better results than quick wash iso

[Gingerbeard]

I refuse to press down on hot-water-pressurized glass bottle.
My alternative is a kief press in warmed hot water.

Solventless extraction

Do you freeze yours in a freezer for safekeeping for a couple of years ? I do and take my word you don't loose much potency out of it. Here is my timeline : curing flowers for 2-4 months, making hash, curing Hash for 3-12 months in a mason jars in a dark control room inside of a oak box, freeze for several years in a sealed tight jar. But remember I learned from the best and is name is Frenchy. So much to learn and so few years left to make my perfect ball.

Perfectionnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn !! Now try this young Ginger.

Is there an improved or better method of using isopropyl than in a QWISO approach? I have 4 litres of 99.9% iso in the freezer and want to use it this grow on the bud trim.

Farmbuck asked me to process his hash as I have processed my rosin with the winterization/gravitation thing I just did and I am curious.
How about it? Dissolve hash in alcohol. Freeze it real frozen. Put it on a filter. Add gravity. Evaporate the alcohol. That is pretty much RSO without having to soak an entire plant. We're talking working grams in jars at a time with little mess instead of ounces in buckets with lots of mess.
You wouldn't waste the hash. Hash is perfect and cannot be improved on. Gingerbeard is a fool. Fine. I get you. Let's just talk about what I'm talking about. Eyes on the prize.

Scrape your stash jar or get a grinder with a kief catcher.
I would say anything with a screen will work. Bubble bags can be used for dry sift which does not need to dry out like ice water hash and you do not need to deal with dry ice.
Realize you do not make hash from weed. You make kief from weed and hash from kief.
Dry kief from dry sift or dry ice needs to be heated and pressed to make hash.
Ice water kief can be pressed so you have kief that is easy to handle but has not been given a heated hash treatment.
I've pressed bud and kief one time each. That is the easiest product I have extracted. But it is also the most wasteful and needs a big-honkin' press.

[Farmbuck]

Putting the jokes aside, are you satisfy with your ratio of Hash ?

[Mollisol]

What is the simplest and least expensive way for someone to make hash? Someone like me, who has never made it before?

[Gingerbeard]

No, no... I said you are someone. Not, someone else. You are something else. Something else, entirely!

[Farmbuck]

Don't swear too much that someone is someone else.

[Gingerbeard]

Waaait, I just reread that. The land of fruits and nuts is California! Yeah, even sitting on top of Tijuana we are worried about getting our faces burned off in 'm'rica. We care more.
We care more and, being the fifth largest economy in the world we freely feel free to force our neighbors to do the same.

10%, got it. I swear someone said they were good with 220, and you are someone.
