Wow! Just finished my first batch with my new washing machine and frenchy bags from boldtbags. Everything is so nice and just works so smooth. The bags are so much nicer than my bubble magic bags! Does anyone have any tips for draining the machine? Mine was getting clogged a little, but it was nothing I couldn't fix with a wooden spoon. All help is greatly appreciated! Thanks friends!!

I use a silicone mouthpiece for bongs to blow out the offending plant material out of the drain tube.

Cut down the teeth of your drain cover, blowing through the exhaust pipe is all I need to unclog my machine and it actually plug rarely mainly with sugar trims

Love the thread, have been reading through all the great info while attempting to make my first round of water hash! No machine so did everything by hand with bags. Used Frenchy methods to press (boiling water in glass bottle) .
The first press it got really sticky and fragrant, rolled it up into a long log type (twisted it up after to attempt a cannoli look of course). Second press I started to really see the change in it. Came out looking a lot lighter and still sticky. Pressed it a third time for good measure and let it chill. Ended up getting super dry and flaky looking and not sticky at all. It smokes well and has a great head buzz to it but it seems off! Where did I go wrong guys?! Was thinking of putting a little in my hand to warm it back up... we live in Maine so the temps here arent warm at all and we have dry wood heat to heat the house. Any and all advice welcome!
Best thread on RUI for sure!!! Thanks for all the knowledge.

The resin wasn't totally dry. Drying perfectly is the most difficult part of the process.Love the thread, have been reading through all the great info while attempting to make my first round of water hash!

Frenchy, what is your opinion on using things like vacuum chamber or freeze dryer or dehydrator to dry hash as opposed to drying on racks in a controlled environment? Have you experimented with any of those methods?

Kinda frustrating I know heh heh heh but the resin is probably still really good for mixing into flower. you also might try rosin tech-ing it if you hate the flakes.Love the thread, have been reading through all the great info while attempting to make my first round of water hash!

otherwise use a hair straightener to press small pieces between parchment prior to smoking.

I am using a freeze dryer and I need to test a vac oven to be able to do some comparative testing

Wooden spoon works great for me. Or I put on my long gloves and move the material. I may remove my modified drain cover to open the hole more.
Im so tired of my hand getting freezing cold, Im gonna knock them out asap. TY for the pic. I love Frenchys videos, learnt me so much. Heres the hash before heating and after.

The flow of the water shouldn't be hampered so you do not want any filtering or blocking at that level.

What difference can sieving in a cold environment have on the final quality of the resin??? Also you are NOT extracting, you are sieving according to the definition of the world extraction (Extraction in chemistry is a separation process consisting in the separation of a substance from a matrix.)

Damn I've been calling my bubble hash IWE (ice water EXTRACTION) all along.
What should I be calling it? Ice hash? Ice water hash? Ice water resin? I don't like to call it hash because it's not pressed. I don't like to call it Bubble because the name bubblehash is commonly associated with a very low quality product where I'm from.
these things matter to me haha

It's called "Garda" in the unpressed state in Afghanistan and Pakistan Tribal territories . Not sure what the english translation is exactly and I guess the term Garda would be impractical in our part of the planet but just sayin' BTW folks if ya have a spare moment check out my Charsi Baba youtube channel I'm collecting and posting videos of traditional hash culture in the Af/Pak region . https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpM3zWvHJOi050k0RBXMNaA

Garda would work better than kief as long as definition of the word goes
