Hash Making Revisited

Re:Experiments …
Had to run to town , find some 90 micron bags , spend more monies in the name of science.

At least that’s what I told the wife lol

yah 90 micron is definitely where it’s at. I did the microscope thing, and saw it has the least plant material in there.

Gotta make the trash hash as good as I can .

Running a test run tonight , I’m using the washing machine .
Two 2 minute runs in the 90 micron then I’m pulling the 90 and do a final 30 minute run into the 25 micron .
Then both collections get put in mason jars full of cold water so I can skim off what floats then it’s into the vac chamber and fridge to dry .

hah hah yah I just gave buddy the talk about rando batches in real life.
He was complaining about this hash batch he had just made using my old bags. IT wouldn’t put off any vapors and no melt. Also the flavor was old shoes. I said you can’t be making champ batches out of some bag of weed buddy gave you. That shit is garbage, and it made garbage. You have to make sure you start with primal nuclear weed if you want to crank out gold. hits the terp slurper
Then get your ass a sweet rig…

Dude! where do you live that you just find random bags of buds on the road, enough to do a hash run with, not like an 1/8th that someone tossed? Enquiring minds wanna know! :rofl:

Ahem… I call those buds “ditch weed”…cause I found ‘em in a ditch. Bags of buds are like tumbleweeds around here, just blowin’ in the wind lol!

You can literally SEE the trichome caps floating in melted hash.
Err and a human hair, I better go pick that out. If you look at it with your eyes, you can see a color difference between where the live extracts touched it, and where the shelf dried touched it. Even though they are the same material, the melted shelf dried is amber, and the melted live is golden. Camera has trouble with those color gradients because it’s a hunk of shit.

ok, well out of all the things I tried, I have to say, for cleaning that resin stain or black char off your quartz, nothing beats hot water and baking soda.

Might be some R 'n D coming up here. Probably make that video sooner than later if I get my hands on some kilos.

This hash is really dark. Kind of waxy! You can’t really tell WHAT is in it, but I found a random organic. Told him the weed wasn’t good and he said it had been in the shed for 6 years. mmmmmmmmm, nasty.

Ahh the unicorn is getting dirty! So I was like… better break out the alcohol… no wait!
Time to really test the baking soda. What CAN it do with no scrubbing.

So I put some in there with hot water and gave it a few shakes. wow! It’s not perfect after one cycle, but baking soda and water are so much easier to work with than fucking iso.

I’ve heard salt water paste works well too.

Yeah I use course salt and ISO.

Oh that works the best, for most things. I’m starting to get tired of opening the container to a fresh wave of iso fumes though. So… I got to thinking. I know…dangerous eh?
So the most effective combo is coarse salt and iso, but second best is coarse salt and baking soda! It even scrubs off any black char. I’m going to do some trials.

well the resin in the quartz bowl really resists the baking soda. I made this fucking radical mix of baking soda, coarse salt and alcohol. Give it a couple swishes. I’ll see how the char loosened up, because the resins are gone for sure.

Well, no matter how nasty it looks, you can definitely get it back to brand-new condition. Once you have put it in alcohol and the resins are off, the remainder can be removed with baking soda and water. You put some baking soda in the bowl, then toss in some water. Get the torch under there and boil it! Keep boiling until you are happy, because the water doesn’t boil as much, and it strips off the black char that alcohol won’t touch. I scrub that shit with a cotton ball ripped up and put on the end of my dabbing tool. That thing is my extra-huge q-tip! After I take some dabs, I’m going to try just boiling water and baking soda in there. It’s the only thing I haven’t tried yet!

Just boiling it in baking soda water leaves a sticky film behind on the quartz! That I had to rinse off with iso. Ohhhh well. I got it sparkly clean again, I think I’m getting better at it hah hah! The pearl almost stopped rolling around in there it had so much black crud. Had to pull hard to make it move.
The best attempt was when I lit it on fire. Got it all black and sooty! Took a couple hours to scrub that all off.
