1st attempt at bubble has quick question.....

Hey guys so if ya read my last thread I talked about where my first attempt at making FRESH FROZEN BHO was kinda of a failure. So now I got this frozen bud and I just got some bubble bags to make some hash...all the tutorials I find just use regular water and ice. I have done BHO from dried cured bud many times without a de wax sleeve packed with dry ice but was told to do a fresh frozen batch I really should use the dry ice. So I am wondering if the same applies here...would it be a better idea to get some dry ice and and use that with the bubble bags instead of regular ice??? First time trying to make Bubble hash and wasn't sure if dry ice would be a good idea or not....also ANY tips you guys would have for my first attempt at this would really be appreciated!! THANKS EVERYONE!

Water and plain ice. Use a ratio where the water and ice are easily stirred. I don't use/keep anything below 45 micron bag. After done I like to set my hash for an hour on 25 micron cloth sitting top of paper towels in the fridge, flipping once to let gravity get rid of water. Then onto a cold metal backing sheet. Chopped super fine in freezer and leave in freezer over night. The cold temperature is your friend. Then next day sit in fridge until thawed and chop again. Let sit in fridge for a day until almost dry then take it and sit somewhere to finish drying that's dry and safe from dust.

awesome thanks man I really appreciate it getting to work tomorow.....1 other thing....how finely should the buds be chopped up? when I do bho I put them in super MINI blender but only chop for like 3 seconds so its just small chunks not even as fine as you would break up to roll a joint....that's ok right?

I dont use buds often usually just couple ounces of trim at a time. Maybe another guy will pop in that uses buds and give you some guideness.

What bubble bags did you get?(I've had my bags since 2003) Also are you using a mini washer or stirring by hand? I like to use a garment 220 micron bag in washer but if stirring in bucket then just stick your material right in water/ice. Wait a few minutes before stirring. Also once done let the foam settle down for 5 minutes or so before running through bags. After I run my hash/water through bags I use really hot water to melt the ice left in my washer and run that through bags also to catch everything. Just make sure only use enough hot water to melt ice to keep water super cold.

Im new to bubble bags and have run about 4 times. Tried fresh frozen trim, that was some nice melty hash. Nice but kinda sticky and messy. Then I tried dried and frozen. Nice smoke more dry and crumbly. Then I tried ground up dry buds. Like joint rolling broken up, I layered like lasingna ice bud ice bud in the bags with no water yet. I let that sit for a few minutes to freeze up. Then did a light stir added a little water at a time to "wash" the ice. The second time I did it that way again but had a spray bottle with ice water to "wash" the inside walls of each bag. You'd be surprised how much keif is left on the walls plus it makes it easier to gather it all in the middle. I dont know which way I like better they all taste pretty damn good.
