Wolfgang/greenstar, I'm planning on trying to make ice hash this grow actually, if I can find a cheap non-branded set of bags. I think this is one of the easiest/most efficient ways of making hash. The good thing about it is that when you use 3-6 bags of different mesh size you get different grades of hash. If you use decent trichome-covered bud leaf and popcorn bud you can make A+ grade hash, the best possible.
I was wondering though, using an electric food whisker to stir the water/ice/trim mixture makes it easier and separates more of the trichomes from the vegetation, but if the ice cube are too big I think it can be too difficult to get the blades moving as they get stuck. So do you think crushing the ice up with a tea towel and a mallet would make it easier? Do you think doing this is possible?
I was also thinking of making one of those cylindrical drum things made from a fine screen like a tumble dryer that sifts kief out using centrifugal force from the spin of an electric motor but I suspect just making ice hash would be more effective and easier.
I wonder what I should do with the lower grade ice hash that's made from the coarser screen size. I guess I could make better higher grade hash oil using an ISO wash on it. What do you reckon?
Also what do you guys think about drying bud on those fabric screens? I bought a drying rack with soft fabric washable porous screens but I'm starting to wonder whether it would be better to avoid allowing the bud to come into contact with anything by just drying them by hanging them in a string in mid air. Any thoughts on this?
