dry sifting to hashish pressing

[Oldchucky]

Trying to keep up withDRan88 is wearing this old boy out! it is a lot of fun though!

 

[DRan88]

All done. Close to 40 grams when all added togeter of 75 grade.
I might have to sift my buds from last year

 

[Oldchucky]

Might as well give a little warm weather sifting a try. 42°.

low humidity around 40 is ideal

 

[Oldchucky]

Unfortunately, I’m stuck with about 80 but it’s not clumping too bad yet. Not ideal conditions by any means. But will save the material and resift it under better conditions.

so your bored? haha
80 humidity?? really wow,..

 

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, pretty much bored! You nailed it! Cooling my glove hand with an ice pack out of the freezer. Rubbing a balloon to try and generate some static electricity. I think the high humidity makes it hard to get an electric charge. I don’t know just fucking around! Lol.

Color below average. Under the loop below average. Lighter test not bad. Not the melt that it could be, but some melt. Not all material lol. Will give it a press with a bottle in a little bit. See how it turns out.

 

[Oldchucky]

Gave my hands a alcohol wash! Now I can operate my bic lighter with one hand again! Lol accumulating a lot of B and C grade that I would like to press into a brick! But don’t want to spend $400 to do it right! Thinking about getting a 2 x 4 pre-press mold and using a torch and a vice out in the barn. If you see this, any opinions are welcome!

ya that would work, not sure if the hot bottle will work, might be too much contaminate, either way it’ll be fine and smokable,.. probably don’t need much heat if any with the mold/press,..

 

[Oldchucky]

Yeah, I’ll find out a little later about this batch! The hot bottle works on the lower grade, but you can’t really need it or work it! But it smokes good probably easier to smoke than the full melt! But hooked on making those temple balls! I’ll give the pre-press mold a try. They’re like 35 bucks. I even tried a steam iron on the lower grade! Lol! It did OK but you have to use oven bags or the steam well, melt the bag! Lol have you tried that? Come on, be honest! It’s the only thing I’ve ever ironed in my life! Lol! Instead of 60, 90, 110, 200. I went with 90, 110, 160, 200. The jury is still out on that but I think it might be an improvement.

 

[Oldchucky]

Yesterday’s haul. Not bad, considering the conditions! Figured out that a 180° oven and some distilled water to dip your fingers into makes it a hell of a lot easier to work! Once you get it, malleable your golden!

Good shit, Maynard!

[Oldchucky]

Gotta do something with it! Saw a couple of nicks videos, and fell hook, line, and sinker! Fell hard! Lol! Love playing with it! About as old-school as you can get! Still wet behind the ears, though! Hope things are going well down in Oz! I’ll try and get you an update ASAP! Take it easy, brother!

here i’ll start this thread with how to and tips, though i’m always learning too, on dry sifting to pressing hash.
than after done,
all hashish methods and tips are welcome, bubble hash too!..
in these videos i’m working with the don biscotti resin, i remember it being a bit difficult resin so let’s see what i have to do for hashish..
the pink starburst worked like a charm with bubble wash, the pink starburst buds will be dry sifted also, hopefully this weekend to see what method is better for that kind.

This is gonna take a while to get through, in a good way. What a treasure trove of information..... the hash master

probably best to start at the last post and go backwards as things get tweaked better or i get better at explaining,.

Could a guy start dry sifting with just a 150 screen, a 75 screen, a glass bottle and some cellophane?

Those were awesome videos and I’m seriously considering ordering some screens..

 

[Oldchucky]

Keep in mind that screen mash is measured in two ways. US. Mesh and the rest of the world microns! Here is a table for conversion. The higher, the mesh, the finer the screen. The lower the microns, the finer the screen.
