Never seen that available over here. Any idea where to get it?

My local grocery store sells dry ice for like ~$2/lb but they generally come in slabs or bricks, hence the hammer.

I get mine from a local ice cream outlet. They sell ice cream and make dry ice pellets. Google it.

some super market store sell dry ice - by the lb one sold piece need to crush it for use

Hadn’t thought of that! Bet dippin dots or coldstone might have it also found a couple places online that will ship for cheap

Eh. They’re both physical extractions. The only difference is initial cleanliness. So really they are the same. I’ve made dry ice hash that dabs better than bubble I’ve purchased but I’ve also made shit.

The larger screen I use to sift and what I was sifting.

Here’s some more showing the pellets and whatnot.

Live slow and get your toes dirty in my grow. Come on down

Dry ice hash, baby. First shake looking really really nice and clean. Second shake looks really nice but slightly darker, third is pretty similar to second and then fourth and final shake is the darkest. I used 6lbs dry ice to probably 60-80g dried bud and sugar leaf. Edited to add that I layer the herb/dry ice when there’s enough to do so. Starting with dry ice on bottom. Then let that sit for 3 and a half minutes. First shake is not really a shake but rather me just sort of turning the bag to …

A step by step I use…

For every pound or so of trim or larf I go with 5lbs dry ice. You can get by with less by my place sells 5lb/$5 so it’s what I do.

For trim or larf I remove any fans or anything that looks like it doesn’t have trichomes.

For nugs I just pull them off branches and whatnot. I’d break up bigger ones a bit but it doesn’t matter all that much.

I use a 160u bubble bag to do it in.

Put a light layer of dry ice down. Just enough to cover the bottom, nothing crazy.

Put the bud in.

Toss rest of dry ice in and let the whole thing sit for 30 seconds.

Then I close the bag up and pick it up and do a little rocking back and forth action for 10-20 seconds just to mix all the bud and dry ice a bit.

Shake up and down as straight as possible for 90-120 seconds on a flat surface with parchment down.

Repeat 90-120 second shake.

If it still seems light I go for another 90 second shake. 3, 90-120 second shakes is usually good

Sometimes I’ll scrape the first shake to the side and do the second then scrape that up and do a third, but it doesn’t make that big of a difference. As soon as you start to see a green tint, I stop and collect all the good hash

And a press at 178f have fun man

That looks like dabs not kief or hash.
