bubble hash questions

[fatsackville]

i have some questions about making bubble hash, i undersand how to do it and why it works.
BUT
there are still some things about it that im not sure of even after reading tons of threads on assorted forums and watching hours of videos.


#1 wet or dry...... is it better to use fresh trim or dry????

#2 what size mesh it the peice of drying cloth that comes with some bags? (mine came with none) would coffee filter work for squeeze drying the final product?

&
#3 BUDS all the info i find on bubble bags is about "TRIM" i plan to use quite a bit of bud material in mine so.... SHOULD I CHOP ALL THIS BIGGER STUFF UP FIRST OR WILL THE BIGGER BUDS BREAK UP IN THE WATER WHILE IM MIXING???

when you said grinder what kind of grinder??? like just the litle joint hand grinders?

That's already happening in the ice water.
this is probably true, i still havnt made any but it was recomended. idk. i am waiting for a little extra cash to buy some screens(large and small) so hopefully i can use them for both dry and wet.

freezing is supposed to help the trichomes get brittle and fall of easier. here is a chart someone gave me when i was asking the same ?'s

a micron is one millionth of a meter......not sure on the numbers or the quality of them

Yes.

I would think a regular weed grinder would work. Let us know how it turns out. How much material are you starting with?

thanks for all the tips : )

i dont know if im going to freeze the trim and buds but i will have plenty of ice and COLD water : )

i think doing this outside at nite will help???? (its getting into like the 20's at nite here)

i got a 3 bag set, 5 gallon, from some place that i think makes them locally.


the sizes are measured differently than the name brand sets
the name brand sets use "MICRONS" 25micron or 200micron ect.

but my set is measured in somethingths of an inch : ) ??? :wtf:

can anyone do a conversion and tell me what "micron" sizes mine are???

ok here is how they are marked
#1 .0077"
#2 .0026"
#3 .0024"

1- I've only tried it with dry trim. Wet is suggested by the manufacturer, but we don't all have the luxury of LOADS of wet trim. If you want to store trim, either dry it and store in paper bags, or freeze the fresh stuff.

2- I believe it's 10u. Rather than a coffee filter, which is rough and quite porous, a fine silk scarf with a glossy finish (silk satin) folded between several layers of paper towel is preferable.

3- yeah, break up larger buds. It's more efficient.
