Processing about 2.4kg of fresh frozen cannabis.
My technique definitely needs to be improved, but that’s why we do this stuff and learn right?
I’m washing it 4 batches of 600g each. Next time I’ll probably make them smaller still.
I also feel like I am adding too much ice, even though I add less each time… the stuff frosts up and I’m sure it’s not getting the stuff in between the denser buds.
Even though, the returns are decent I would say, and I’m saving the washed bud for edibles, so nothings wasted. I’ll dial in the technique for next run. I collect the trichomes from the 25 and 74 micron bags, I’ll keep them separated and from there I’ll press it into hash rosin.

Dry ice is just carbon dioxide compressed from gas to a solid. So when it evaporates it just transfers directly to a gas, leaving no residue. It is usually a lot cleaner and has a higher yield than bubble hash.
I would suggest looking up dry ice hash, it’s a lot less labor intensive and imo tastes better. Basically the hardest thing about it is finding the dry ice if you’re in a rural area.
I’ll look into it, but idk how the wife would feel about risk with that. I went with this route since it’s less labor intensive than other routes. Yes I know I’m paying a premium otherwise, but health factors playing as well.
Haha, yeah I guess dry ice has a bit more of a safety factor than just plain cold water. But it really isn’t all that dangerous with some basic precautions.
