Extraction Ice Water Extraction Thread

Hey guys whats sup been a minute but its that time again. so this time i bought a washing machine to run my trim and man all i can say is fking wow 3times the yield and 3times the quality form when i hand stirred its crazy. did 4 runs the first two were for 6mins each the water was purple like wine. both came out looking exactly the same nice golden and melty so combined them. ran a 3rd expecting to come out with some green stuff for cooking ran it for 15min water didnt turn purp this time but light golden 3rd run came out almost as good as the first two. thought well shit wheres my cooking grade so ran it for a fourth time at 15min and still came out a little darker than the others like some real good b grade i would say. all in all the 75 for the washer was def worth it and i recommend anyone running bubble to grab one, really wish i had a good cam to show this off cause i dont feel these pics do it justice lol. anyway heres some pics of it mid dry.

hey grindin u def should bro it will pay for itself on the first run. i got a basecamp washingmachine from amazon. they seem to go up and down in price alot just looked and someone was selling one for 129 i ordered mine last wk and it sold form amazon for 69. so just keep a eye out but usually there no more than 100. any of the 5gal mini washeres will work look for either a basecamp or a panda small portable washing machine, those were cheapest i found. only thing is theyt dont come with a filter bag so u have ot buy that sep.
 
sup guys just tossing up a cpl pics of it since its dry now and looks dif .

Damn killa that's some bomb looking wax! Really would love to try my hand at making bubble hash but I just bought a case of butane for bho so I'll have to wait till all of that is gone. I was looking into a washing machine a few weeks back but decided to go with a bho tube now I'm second guessing myself :crying:
 
thanks maine its bomb tasting also it taste just like the bud concentrated lol amazing. yah when i was looking into first wanting to make hash i was gonna go butane but i started watchin the weed nerd on youtube and listenin to his talk about butane and with me being a chronic smoker with horrible lungs i decided to go solventless.
 
Have made alot of Ice hash years ago !:X's Evil Laugh x:

My methode and some tips !

1 Cut the material fine when wet then put in the freezer for a couple of months!
2 Use an open freezer!
3 clean buckets and screens
4 Use demi-water and crushed ice made from demi-water!
5 keep the temperature around freezing point!
6 Get different screens from 20-240 micron and best like 5 different screens
(depends on the quantity of material you have, the more material the more screens gets interesting, some screens will contain allot of stuff and others almost nothing but this depends on the strain)
7Get a clean mixer (building material) and a good cordless drill that can be put on slow speed!
8 Place the mixer in the bucket put some ice in it and a layer of plant material and again some ice and again plant till the bucket is filled for 3/4!
9 Start mixing for Half a minute on the slowest setting, and in the meanwille add some water until it gets a slush!
10 Now let it stand for 5 minutes and mix again for 10 seconds!
11 Place your screens in a big bucket twice as big as the original ( from big to small) and pour the mixture in the bags!
12 After that you should raise the bags above the big bucket and pour as much water trough it as possible!
( at the end you lower all the bags except the biggest on where all the plant and ice material is stuck in, if you dont do this the hash will stick on the bottom of this bag)
13 Now empty the biggest bag containing ice and plant material in the small bucket and put in freezer so the temp doesn't rise to much!
14 Now you have cached the premium hash in your bags, remove the hash from the screens and keep them seperated!
15 Restart the mixing but now for 10 min and repeat the process!( slow mixing!!)
16 You now have the second grade hash!
17 If you like you can repeat this one more time or you can now go for the bulk method!
18 Pour all the material in the big bucket and mix like 1-3 minutes at full speed!
19 Take your bags and bucket filled with the mixture to the shower!
20 Pour all the material in the bags and take the showerhead and start flushing with cold water trough the bags until all the ice is gone! (5_10 minutes)
21 Now you have bulk hash in your bags, the hash will be green(organic plant material) depends on the time you mixed it on full speed!( sometimes you will be surprised how much you yield this way!)
22 Now important to get the water out of the hash as fast as possible!
23 Best way is to freeze-dry unfortunately, the machine to do this is very expensive !
24 So pressing between chlorine free paper or cloth that doesn't loose fibers is the best alternative to loose the water.
25 Start working the hash or use a press!

Happy smoking!

Cutting leaves adds cell bodies to the hash which reduces potency, and hand mixing is far superior to electric mixing this also breaks apart leaves/buds and reduces potency.
