Bubble hash help please

[Ollylake]

Yeah, I got bubble bags from Amazon. I used around 840g of bud and all of the trimmings from 4 plants (probably another 900g or so).

Think I may try heating it gently tonight, see if I can finish the product.
Are you talking temps in celcius?

My oven is in Fahrenheit. The lowest setting is 150

I’m going to experiment tonight, if it all goes horribly wrong I will just blame you lol.

Ill let you know how I get on!

I put it in the oven at 170F for around 6 minutes, checked and it was sticking to the baking parchment so I pulled it out. I gathered it up and squeezed it in my hands, there’s still a lot of moisture in it. I’ve now shaped it into a kind of burger patty and put it into the freezer..... pretty clueless as to what I’m doing. Hopefully I’m not fucking up my hash!

 

[Weaselcracker]

No I don’t think you are. Freezing it definitely won’t hurt it. Not sure how well it will dry it out but it’s not gonna hurt it

 

[Ollylake]

After only about 20 mins in there it looks okay. I’m going to play around with it tomorrow and see what it’s like.

Also, my weight was off by a lot! It seems there’s only 154g of the stuff now. It must have lost a lot of moisture throughout the last couple of days!

 

[Weaselcracker]

Yes it will definitely shrink

This looks like fun. I've gotta give making hash a go at some point. Pretty sure it's the first time fears whats prevented it so far. What's the best step by step how-to?

I just went onto Amazon and brought these:


Then two 5gallon Home Depot buckets and a soft stirring attachment for my drill.
Setup the bags, put in weed, put in ice, add water and stir for 10-15 mins, then extract. There’s plenty of YouTube tutorials for the extraction, not so many for what to do afterwards..

You can wash the same batch twice or more (I did it all twice).

I’ve finally had a chance to play with it after freezing. I microplaned the frozen hash in two batches. One I left to dry a little in the sun, the other I pressed straight into a lump and squeezed a bit of moisture out with my hands.

The squeezed batch is now the consistency of toffee and looks great! I want to see how well it stores though.

The second batch in the sun really hardened up and was far more difficult to mould. I think this batch may be difficult to use, but we will see!


Frozen hash block!

This is such an interesting substance to work with, I can’t wait to turn it into food!
