Hash Making Revisited

I’ve noticed dabs give me a lot of mucus. I get it smoking flower but much less.

I usually dab 10 or more dabs a day on average myself. I prefer to press my flower through 37 or lower vs 90. I get less residue on the nail, not sure how that translates to lungs but I enjoy the lower micron more. Only thing i can think of is that maybe the hash wasnt dried completly before pressing and there is a small amount of moisture trapped in the rosin?

Im the opposite, raw flower fucks me up, has my nose running like crazy. Dabs that doesn’t happen unless it’s a high terpene % extract.

I only get what I call the hash sniffles right after I take a huge rip my nose runs for a bit. I would say that I experience no irritation or persistent cough. It’s especially nice in the morning I don’t cough shit up, unlike the fatty smoking days, that shit gets in your lungs. Bubble hash and rosin. Sometimes I mix them together :slight_smile:

I dab hash rosin all day. Never had issues with mucus etc compared to flower rosin. IME it’s cleaner.

4 scoops to wake up, fucking laser is coated with the splatter of a bazillion hits. I did notice a real difference between the old stupid hot knives, and the quartz slurper. The hot knives were killing my lungs. I don’t even know how hot it was when I ripped it. 500C?

You think it could have been a temporal coincidence? Or have you determined cause and effect?
Like you got RSV and thought it was the rosin. Just an example.

I switched back to the flower rosin and the cough quit, started back on the hash rosin and it started again. Switched between both hash rosins and it seems the same. I’ve got 25 micron rosin bags coming, see if running it through that changes anything.

That’s really interesting… I wonder if you’re on to something with making it smoother for our lungs

Have you tried the hash before it was made into rosin? 'Cause here’s the thing. The hash is literally made from the trichomes, and the rosin is anything inside the trichomes that could melt out. I would venture to say that each process, is just concentrating the ingredients by removing things that don’t melt. Additionally, the flower rosin is made from the same thing. Anything that could melt. In addition, it contains the things that were excluded by the hash making process.
In conclusion, unless something was added during a process, could it be an allergy to the active ingredients?

I did try the hash prior to pressing it but only a couple times and not chronic like I did the hash rosin. I really don’t know what to attribute it to other than moisture.

That’s definitely a possibility, the hash not being dry enough before pressing.

Does it sizzle and spit when you dab it?

After I whipped it, it didn’t sizzle anymore.

Just got around to pressing the Pure Kush x Uzbekistani Hashplant this afternoon. @JoeCrowe tha k you for the tips on drying in the freezer brother o held onto that light color the whole way through and this is the first time I’ve ever pressed out a temple ball that held this beautiful caramel color, it’s fucking mouth watering looking!! Wrapped this bad boy in cellophane and jarred it up to age, it’ll be an exercise in self control to not crack into this thing early
