And remeber, you make hash using mids, it will come out as mid quality hash.
dude im so confused lol, so you grind the buds to a fine powder, the shake it in the thing and whats left on the dome is the actual hash making stuff? and whats to stop the kief from falling back through the panty hose?
This is a great thread. And not just because it's stickied.
Last night I sifted some kief for the first time. I've smoked it before, but I'd never bothered to try to sift it myself. The sifter I made is ghetto as hell, but it worked like a charm:

What I did:
I didn't press the kief. I just smoked it. Good Lord. I totally concur with the 6-to-1 potency guesstimate above. And indeed, the ground bud that I sifted is still very smokeable.
- Used some thumbtacks to attach a sheet of 180 micron aquarium filter bag material to a small wooden picture frame.
- Froze about a half ounce of stems and shake and about 5 grams of ground bud. Like, I put it in the freezer for a couple hours. Supposedly that helps the triches and oil from other parts crystallize or something. Read that in a couple of places.
- Gently sifted all of the frozen junk (small handfulls at a time) over a ceramic plate and collected it in a pile with a business card.
As for people who say, "I'd just smoke the buds," well, that's cool and all. But the advantage of kief (or kief pressed into hash) is of course that you can combust faaaaaar less material and get faaaaaar more baked. Which a lot of us recreational users find to be an advantage. :-)
You don't want to grind the buds up too fine. This is what we mean when we say kief. This sifting technique depends on the fact that trichomes are uniformly tiny in size. Smaller than almost any other material on the plant. Unless you were to grind it into powder.Quote:

But the important thing is that you just want the kief. Not ground up green.
hot goddamn!!!
i want a rip of that shit!
can someone suggest or post some pics of what the procedure would be like for the MALE plant...I have massive B-52 strain and very healthy..I hate to throw it ou?
what part EXACTLY of the male plant to we grind down and sift for its KIEF?
I understand this is a popular procedure for MALES if you don't want then for seed prodcution.
also do we harvest the MALES earlier or later in the flowering stage for KIEF production?
so what is the procedure or is it possible to do it to a MALE plant and what is differnt in this techinique as opposed to doing it for e female plant?
thank you in advance....:)
I have found a good way to press small amounts of kif into small pieces of hash. I got some pieces of hard plastic tubing and some metal bolts that fit tightly in the tubing. You want to cut the tubing short enough that you can push the packed hash out one end with one of the bolts (the size of the tube will depend on the length of the bolts you use). I used 1/2 bolts which will give you a disc about the size of a dime. All you do is put the kif in the tube and press it together with the bolts. The pressure from squeezing it together with your hands is all that is needed for it to solidify. After you have squeezed it together really hard, just let it sit for about 10 minutes or so. Then just push the hash disc out one side of the tubing and you have a perfectly compressed dish of hash. The thickness will depend on how much kif you put in. An 1/8 grinded in my grinder usually makes a good sized disc of kif. It burns very slow and once it starts burning you shouldnt have to relight it
Thanks for the guide Chowder. I just did your method (slightly modified though), and baked my hash for awhile. I'm stoned as fuck :stoned:
I've been collecting the kif in a small grinder that came with my volcano and decided it was time to make hash with this small baggie that I had around, I included scorching the outside with a lighter to make it more solid, and i actually pulled a big hunk out of the pipe I was using because I could tell I was already baked and I thought I might wait until about now to throw it back in the pipe.
hehe...
your hash is beau-ti-ful.
great guide!
Just put the remainder of my commercial kif into a heavy baggie, rolled it in a few sheets of wet newspaper and now it's tick tock tick tock ten min till the rollin' pin.
I LOVE hash.
:)
I've never made hash out of the kif saved up in my buster, but once I saved up 5g of it and then smoked it all in a week. Fuck me was that great! Maybe next time I'll try some Sledgehammer Hash(tm). :jointsmile:
lol... still think the thread is 'dead'?Quote:

Waiting for the bigger piles to dry, but what was left on my pressing screens lit me up real nice.
In the past i was using the 3 bag system, but switched to the 8 bag system(5 gallon bags) and very glad i did. I also used a electic mixer this time and just about doubled what i normally get off a 1/2lb.
dai*ma:stoned: sfca 94110
The high is instantaneous (sp)
cool never saw this before...I have been grinding a long time wit

How do u make bubblehash???anybody know?? nochowder??:S5:
Nope, nobody knows. It's a big secret. ;)
how to make bubble hash - Google Search
Google is a wonderful thing. :)
aweseom websit of google lol i read it all tanx you
Is it any more potent than just smoking straight kief in a bowl?
fuck ya
For everyone wonder about the differnces between pressed kief and heated kief [blond and dark hash] here's my own homemade blond and dark hash.
http://boards.cannabis.com/cannabis-...lond-dark.html
The blond is exactly the same as no chowders method, and the dark is basically the same but shoved in the oven.
I also put a little info on why some hash is darker and some is lighter. Although it's fairly easy to work out.
hell yeah, hey is there anything else usable as a screen, idk if i can find any pantyhose, this is a bachelor pad. and cheese cloth wont work (the kind i have wont anyway. the screen in my grinder broke in one place so i cant use that.
anything else u can think of?
Sorry Swirly, all I know is to use Silk Screening or pantyhose if silk screening isn't around.
Silk Screen can be found at most major retail hardware centers.
it sounds kinda easy reading other ppls posts according to them but i was lost at like the 3rd word or so
Kief is deff the way to go.. me and my freinds were saving up, and had a mini jar filled of the shit, hard packed too but then desperate times came and we smoked it all, pinch by pinch... and for all you who are wondering how strong the shit is.... one pinch would get you higher than youve ever been
Is it possible to use this method but only grind stems? I have probably a half ounce of stems saved up and in the bottom of the bag I can see what looks like kief powder.
Check out Way Too Many under the mrijuana section, look for the title "Don't Throw Away Your Stems." It's a video showing how you can shake the kif from your stems.
Don't grind them up though. Keep them whole as you don't want stem dust coming through the screening. Keep in mind you need about 10g's of stems to get even one or two small kif hits. :)
awsome ... best idea for making hash ... every time i have wanted to make it i thought i would have to buy one of those bubble bags that are mad expensive
i tried the "sledge hammer hash" today; it was successful. it looked like i used about 2g of some pot, that i grinded in a hand held grinder {stone}. It became a very fine dusty like material, that i then put into a container.. after that i dipped the blade of my pocket knife into the hashish material and placed it atop my pot in a small bowl, and i'm fucked up. As, you can tell..haha enjoy to try!:thumbsup:
Cool extract bro. But I gotta ad if you did the bubble extract method you would have much purer hash. the bubble extraction is th easyest and produces the purest hash, hence the name bubble hash as it bubbles when smoking it. Check it heres hightimes guru Jorge Cervantes making 10g of bubble hash.

yeah man ive done that same thing, my brother started doing that like 8 years ago, so when i started smoking weed i bought a electric bud buster(coffee grinder) and make hash, but i just let my thc build up in the budbuster, so when ever i want a joint a bud bust it an leave the ectra crystals in there till it can make me a nice huge nug.. an by the way for you people wanting to try this... its so easy to do, but if you fuck up u can lose alot of thc!!!
ya using trimmings for hash is great but if you have a few (5) grams of good weed u can grind it; shake it and make at least .5g of some nice gold hash, when i make it i usually make .5 and its enough to get me high twice, so i think its fun every once in a while
i do this and i love it. i grind up my ounce and once it is done i press a nice band of hash, even though some dont really consider it real hash.
You've prompted me to fill my dime bags full of leftover crystals.... ill have a mean assorted crystal hash one day :D:jointsmile:
im really new to hash and keef. isnt hash black? and whats keif? and did it just come out of the weed when u blended it or w.e?
Hash turns black when heat is used.
