I’ve found a few articles on the procedure, some say freeze dryer, some say in a cardboard box in the cabinet, And many inbetween options.

What is your preferred methods to drying bubble hash? Just finished a run and hoping to keep it the best quality I can, and avoid any first timer mistakes.
it will most likely later be pressed into RHO.
Thanks in advance! Cheers

First separate the grades into at least 2 piles. The green Gumby tinged hash is probably better for edibles as it looks like it has a lot of things other than resin heads in it judging by the color. I would just chop it up with a blade as fine as you can and let it dry on a piece of cardboard once it’s not so glumpy. Clean cardboard is good for drying but it will stick to it if you don’t move it around every so often. Parchment paper is a close second but stays wet far too long. The bigger chunks could stay gooey in the middle for a couple of days until fully dry; try to keep reducing their size to speed drying.
The golden color hash looks pretty good though; possibly even full melt. Place the best hash from this run on clean piece of cardboard or parchment and put it in the freezer for an hour. Meanwhile line a clean square Pyrex dish with parchment paper. Use a micro-plane aka a kitchen zester to grate the hash. Rest the handle side of the zester on a sidewall in the dish and grate the hash into small bits. Should look like beach sand. Work fast and/or wear latex gloves or the hash will start sticking to your fingers; put back in the freezer as needed to keep the hash hard enough to grate. Gently pick up the sides of the parchment to transfer the grated hash onto a clean piece of cardboard. Allow to dry fully overnight while scraping it around every few hours or so to prevent sticking. Once fully dry you can store it as is or press it or whatever.
