Hello People!
guess its time to show my first time making hash off.
its my first time doing this kind of dry sift so didnt know what to expect or what to do.
i did alot of research and just free balled as i felt like is right.
After Harvesting and Drying i took all the sticks out, left the sugar leaves on the nugs and then put everything in the freezer for like 3 days.
ordered some dry ice and did alot of preperations. like getting some big sifting screens.
so first i put like 1/4 of the frozen material in a 220 micron bubble bag inside of a big bucket. threw some dry ice in and then started to shake it, so the trichomes felt off.then i collected everything from my bucket and put it in a glass jar with parchment paper (to get better out again)did this 4 times so no material got left over.
after the first sifting with the bubble bag, i threw everything on these big sifting screens with 190; 160 and 73 micron.
then the drumming started, i used 2 spoons to like hit/drum the screens so the trichomes get seperated by size.
i felt like the screens got clogged at some point so i stopped and was like yea thats okay enough lets go to the next step, collecting everything and pressing.
the first layer 190+ got discarded. layer 190-160 got saved as well as layer 73-160. everything below the last screen got destroyed by my own mistake. the tape i used to secure the parchment paper on a plank ripped and everything went flying. well i wanted to discard it anyways..
after the sifting screens i used the frenchy cannoli methode with a hot water bottle to press the trichomes to some nice hash.
the results:
190-160 micron: 12,4 G
73-160 micron: 32,2 G
Total: 44,6 G
fully legal here :)
im very happy with the results, even tho the hash is a bit green. after all it was my first time doing it like that.
i feel like i need to dry it a bit more next time. so the screens aint clogged and thus i can better seperate the trichomes, maybe it is less green then.
maybe next time im not using the big sifting screens but rather go for some static with a glove or a ballon.
