Dry Ice hash

[Dizzle Frost]

Umm, 160 or 170 is the next sizes down. You would actually be getting less leaf/green plant matter.

I picked up some at Meijers...a department store here in Michigan. Walmart might have them...they're everywhere.

Fdd, I bought about 15 pounds and barely used 5. When I was done shaking it(lol), I dumped it out on a cooking sheet and recovered the dry ice with tongs. When I was done, there was dust everywhere...we need to come up with a better way to capture this dust to keep the work cleaner.

WARNING: Do not tip bucket back over(when done shaking) over work area!

maybe i got it backwards when he told me that .... hes got a journal goin if you wanna ask , i cant remember .....i know one came out a lil green and one was just trichs

Just went to my local store and picked up a set of one gallon bubble bags today. Long story short, I ran my first ever two batches of trim/nugs today from some of my outdoor using the dry ice method in the video I posted here earlier.

Heres the result of batch one.

Batch two is about the same, I ran a total of about 18 grams for each batch and ended up with 12.7 total.

Edit, I forgot to mention, I used the 220 micron bag, I'm sure if I used a smaller one I would have less plant matter, but this is all just for me, so I could care less, lol

whats the best way to let the dry ice melt away after use is it safe to leave inside the house until sublimation or is it left outside lowkey I just wonder because the trim would be all mixed up with the dry ice kind of a hazard a unwanted suspicion to be exposed mixed with a dangerous substance any ideas?

I pick the ice out with tongs and use it to run another batch when I'm done I let evap out ina bag in the sink or outside.

Me, personally, I just throw it in a bowl of water, it makes it all foggy like in the movies, just kind of cool to watch while I medicate....lol

Cold storage warehouses sometimes sell it as well. Do they sell bags of ice at the gas stations around you? Ice isn't very cost effective to ship, so its usually made somewhere locally, and the ice company will usually sell dry ice as well. If not, call them anyway...they probably get that question a lot and might know where you could find some.

Alot of grocery stores carry dry ice, all you have to do is ask, I picked mine up at a smart and final.

Mine at Publix.

Although the end product is "dry" I suggest letting it air out and cure for a week or two. The color will change as will the smell. I promise.

I bought dry ice at foodmaxx. The cashier was like "ten pounds bro? are you whipping up some mad cold water hash?" lol

I was like "nah its for keeping my beer cold fishing"

Yep, throw that shit in the freezer and use it for Halloween.

I just tried this out and I am quite pleased. Used a 220 bag, as above this is for me so a little green in it is ok. Tried it out and....what was I saying???....oh yeah....it worked great.

Also last night was Halloween so I used the excess ice to create the smoke, told the kids they could either have candy or "the brains I was cooking in this bucket", LOL, it went over big.

the trim i used for this was almost a year old.

it has to at least be dry.

I saw a video of a dude doing an ounce of fresh frozen trim. It worked but the yield was only about 40% of a dry run. Makes sense since the wet stuff is 60+% water......
Hops

I used a 220 bags and have been a long time washing machine person. Loved the results and did it in an 1/8 of the time

Dry ice has been very difficult to locate, I tried ice cream stores/grocery stores/liquor stores with no success. Came home with no ice and a 12 pack...lol.

try a welding supply shop. somewhere that fills tanks and bottles.

my city has an ice company that does ice sculptures, sells/rents ice machines, etc. they are the only place within 30 miles of here that sells dry ice, so if you can't find a welding place an ice place will definately have it. someone has to be filling the local dry ice demand.

the stuff from the 220 bag looks like it will suit my personal use just fine. just to be a snob i might run some through a smaller bag, but 220 looks fine for personal stash. as long as it melts or bubbles a bit. if it burns like herb i guess i'll definately have to run it through a smaller bag. those wacky willy's bags should suit me fine. it takes me a year to build up a decent trim pile so it's not as if i'm putting a lot of miles on them.

I have it now, bought 8 lbs from that Meijer store...now it's time to learn the art of dry ice extraction. I'm starting with trim and a small container, I'm going to break up the ice into small chunks(BTW, I think you can store this ice for 3-4 days in an average freezer). Then, I'll move onto bud.
