Newb to.extracts . never tried either apart from hash.

fairly new to growing flower. but very interested in extracts and getting a higher level of thc.

I use a tumbler through a 120 screen then press that through 25 micron bags for rosin.
Tried it a few different ways over the years and here I am with that............for now.

Bubble dude bags work great if your after some bubble hash. qwiso hash is great as well and has a better return.
Both are simple and cheap way to make strong edibles.
I decarb mine in oil after extraction.

With hash, you can skip all the first steps, dissolve in the oil, and just do the final decarb.

Choices include mechanical separation (tumbling/dry sieve), Rosin, polar extraction (QWET/QWISO/QWAT), non-polar extraction (BHO), and vegetable glycerin, as well as oils and fats.

Yield depends on the starting material, but for typical bud is around 18 to 25% by weight and about half that for trim.

Here are some links, with apologies for the missing pictures, which my web-master is working on to retrieve, after Vultr Holding lost the site in its entirety.

I use a tumbler too, it's especially good with trim, starting with nothing and ending up with a pile of kief.

I use to do a lot of Butane extraction, a good method when experienced but dangerous if you're new to it. I picked up stainless steal extraction tubes and the whole bit, makes extraction easy.

I have a set of bags for ice water hash but I've never had good luck with that method.

We've had great luck with our Magical Butter Machine and Coconut Oil, a ml puts our family and friends to sleep for the night.
