Thanks Frenchy, that was fantastic. I use the same micron bags as well with the same results. One thing I've found is crucial is the 160 bag to remove green crap. I'd like to perhaps see a bag, say a tad smaller maybe 140 micron to see if it helps remove impurities. Great idea using a camper type of washer and I like the second wash using just the 45 bag. Generally the 45 bag will be a much smaller amount then the 72 and generally not as good, but Frenchie does it right in that he omits the 72 bag in that step so in makes the 45 better like he says. I have over 25 years experience and I can vouch for this method. Frenchy is right on target according to my experience. I often do the method Frenchy describes after I do dry freezer extraction first. I don't want to lose any terpenes in the water.
You are welcome, nice to share
I am also considering going for a tad smaller, I am ordering some yard of 150 to make myself a dry sifting box and may use 150 in the future for my catch bag. Not sure about smaller, you want to be sure that your bigger trichomes 120 and over are easily going through your mesh.
In the video I omitted my 75 at the third wash to reinforce my 45. This not always the case, it could be after 1, 2 or 10, the way to judge is by looking at the amount of trichomes in your 70 bag, when the amount is considerably smaller, you can take the 70 out.
The number of wash will depends on your trims and the strain you are working with, I have washed some trims, from TC, 12 times (NL x Blueberry), they were fresh so they need more work but to give you an idea how far you can go.
The average difference between my 70 and 45 is only approx. 1% less of THC and 1% more of CBD.
What is "Dry Freezer Extraction" my friend
