Hash talk

Exactly what the dong was trying to say.

[Gingerbeard]

Huh-huh... you said dong. You even said you were going to say dong.
I do not relish the idea of the 5g's. You might have gleaned from previous posts that I have little space to work in and water only the old-timers drink.
Here's an idea.
What about washing in a 5 and straining the wash in 1's? I mean, after you pull out the plant matter there is much less to work with.

Don't waste your time on anything under 5gal. That's what I'm saying dong need the 9 bag set. Get a good 4 bag around those parameters and your good. Don't have to be exact.

And how much weight do you put in your 5-gallon?
My harvests are in the 6-8oz range. I need new bags and am looking at either 1 or 5-gallon. There is a person selling 2-gallon but he wants $20 per bag, plus shipping. Ain't doing $20 per if I can get 5 bag sets for $40.

[Going2fast]

I use 220, 120, 90 and 45. Everything in the 220 bag gets rewashed. I do at least 3 depending on the bud. I mix everything in a 5 gallon bucket and a paint mixer on a drill on low then pour it into another bucket with the bags.

You bubble bag users. What size do you use and how much material do you put in a bag?

There's something called static tek. With a paint roller and parchment paper? Combining this with dry ice might allow doing the frenchy tek.
All the bubble bags on amazon had bad reviews, so I ended up buying silkscreen mesh. Polyester 160 micron. Depending on how much I get I may try doing both the frenchy method and pressing into a brick

I guess just storing dry ice kief in a freezer would be ok, since it was frozen to begin with, though much colder than a freezer?

From my online research, it seems the Frenchy Cannoli tek doesn't really work with dry ice hash, it's too crumbly. But I imagine not having full melt may be better for a dry herb vape.

With hash brick molds, was wondering what would happen if I put that in an air fryer at 200F for maybe 20 minutes to decarb and melt everything, then pressed it in a hydraulic press. But if I'll just vape it, maybe decarbing it isn't necessary. Maybe I could just do the parchment paper+tape+wet newspaper method. But would like something easier in the long run.

QWISO is probably the easiest but is it true hash? Some say it's not safe to make or consume, others disagree with that if done properly. I don't know for sure either way.

https://www.growweedeasy.com/dry-ice-hash I'm planning to do this with just a 160 silk screen mesh, and just hand tearing the wet trim+buds apart before freezing. Because I'm lazy and trying to get a 20% effort for 80% reward solution for using with a dry herb vape. I read that you get better product if you shake very gently. So can do multiple passes with one grit or whatever. Trichomes fall off first, frozen plant matter progressively gets pulverized more.

If you wrap your temple balls in natural cellophane and put them in a mason jar somewhere, as long as it’s not above room temperature they should keep for years without freezing. I don’t think the potency loss will be any different.
Im pretty sure they didn’t have freezers in Afghanistan and India where Master French spoke of 10yr aged hash he was able to sample back in the day.
It’s the removal of almost all moisture content during drying that allows for long term storage without freezing

Dabber gers jealous sure

[Gingerbeard]

I like the molecular elasticization entourage effect. The MEEE. Makes things touchier. If I had a stuffed animal I would be curled up with it.
Dabber walks away from me if I get too touchy-feely.

[Bluey]

Best you keep your molecules separated

[Gingerbeard]

1 decarbed gram of my stuff mixed with 4 tablespoons of salted butter as unsalted butter has no taste. Optic measure of honey until it looked tasty.
Ate my Cheerios with a teaspoon of honey butter. Took the dog for a walk.
I'm going to need for this to stop building. The peak needs to happen. Holy Jim Croce! I think my molecules are separating.
I had originally decarbed the gram to make tincture. 120 proof booze is the highest I can source from walk-in liquor stores and stores that, online, have in stock. But in reality have to special order from somewhere else. With that cue, I'm talking to my liquor store guy about getting a special order of 151. Or not. Maybe. I don't know. I haven't had alcohol in better than 9 years and the thought of it makes me urpee. The tincture would be for a buddy who thought he would be starting chemo. Turns out it is not chemo, and his appetite will not be compromised.
