Unexpected shipment with dry ice- What do I do now?

My evaluation of what I made is that the screen bag I used was just a kitchen fine mesh bag meant for idk. Therefore there was a larger percentage of plant material collected than is usual for this procedure. Thinking on the fly as the dry ice just showed up in something unrelated. Is that why it is so crumbly and doesn't want to stick together? Is that what happens when you make beginner hash? I think I will procure some proper screens for any future experiments. It is tasty though.
 
I should try it again with the bottle instead of the rolling pin, but the oil helped it bond. Another thing I hadn’t thought of here was the heated cooktop. That helps a lot

More heat and pressure. I made 220 micron hash that made hard pucks. Smoked like shit, I thought, because it had so much plant material. Had to get rid of it.
If you check out the second video I posted, dude takes a few pinches of kief in his hand and presses and heats a ball of hash in his palm.
 
110 it is then. My mind is already building a virtual machine. Maybe there is a use for that old vibration machine.
 
guess I can clean up the keyboard now. should know better than to read this with my mouth full.
 
About 1/2 heated & pressed in a vice, the other just pressed between spoons by hand. Trying to make a comparison.
 
I had a thought of making some thing to vibrate or shake my trim bin to aid in collecting the kief when I'm separating the buds from stems during the jarring for curing phase of a harvest.

Nope to pour directly in the kief. I mixed my kief with very hot water then I use my iron cast press to compress and to remove the excess of water from it.
 
I was thinking about a paint can shaker turned down to a less insane level. Maybe just an electric motor with an eccentric weight on the shaft and a spring supported base. Wait that sounds like a jogging table. I can still make one.
 
I was freaked out about the cooktop, but it really doesn’t take a great deal of pressure when the heat is there, and if it’s hot enough, you need leather gloves. What I would not do is heat the bottle in the microwave. That could lead to explosion
 
Hi Ckbrew

If you have any of that keif left, add a gram of it to an oz of Ethanol, or any strong alcohol, and stir for a minute to produce a potent (about 21 mg/ml) tincture!

Easy Peasy and ready to use under the tongue or in edibles. That's what I do with my trim bin dust these days.
