Bubble bags locally OR cheaper hash methods?!?!
So, what is the best way to make hash for the average medicinal grower who just has a few plants and a bit of extra trim?
It seems like bubble hash would be a good idea, but aren't those bubble bags like $100+. Probably a good investment, but not when you're broke. Can you get them locally?
What are some other ways to make fine quality hash on the cheap? Not interested in any butane. Was thinking the cheapest way would be just sifting sugar leaves and pressing kif... but maybe that's not the best quality.lampost Reviewed by lampost on .

Bubble bags locally OR cheaper hash methods?!?!
i ordered my bubble bags from
bubblefilterbags.com
they have the original bubble bags and wacky bags.
i ordered a 5 bag kit of wacky bags for around 80$
they work great.
save your money for bubble bags or wacky bags or any bags with propper micron filters. You will be so happy when you get them.
I love spinning hash.
here is some quick tips
for full melt:
use only fresh trim and bud. NO FAN LEAVES!!!!
freeze trimmings and bud
do not use a drill or hand blender, only a big spoon, i use a wooden one. i spin for about 5 min, soft and easy. let settle 30min
most strains will leave you with full melt in the 73 micron bag.
For quantity (that still bubbles but wont melt):
use methods you find on internet.
with drill or hand blender.
you get alot more but I never seen any melt with this method; only bubble.
i love bubble hash.
there is many other ways to make hash.
in my opinion bubble is the best. i am sure there are people that do not agree with me.
do a google search for how to make hash you will find many ways.

you will be so happy with the bubble bags.
I was in the same situation as you, i grow in a 2x2 tent for medicinal purposes. At first I did not want to spend the money for them, but when I got them I was so happy.
bubble hash is an art, style, science. Not just something to do with trim.
remember if you want quality- take it slow and easy, no crazy drill or egg beater spinnin.
quantity-get crazy with a drill.
happy spinning!!!!
post some pics of your hash after making it.

Bubble bags locally OR cheaper hash methods?!?!
I got a set on ebay for $60 I believe. They work great.
there is an easier / free way if you are small time (i.e. start w/an oz or so at a time) and all you need is a coffee filter.
here's what I do...
you need a blender. nice size cocktail one works great. something that could crush ice. Take an oz of bud or great trim (no fan leaves, stems, etc) cleaned, ground, put ice in the blender. less than 1/4 full. pour (spread) your herb on top of the ice. let it sit for a minute to cool. Have a jug of ice water on the ready. add enough water to cover the ice, and crank the blender up.
If it gets stuck (smoothie effect) turn off the blender, add some water, stir, repeat. the shit should get ground up. A few minutes of blending the herb smoothie.
I pour this all in a tall thin glass container and wait for the ice to finish melting and the goodness to fall to the bottom. get out the crap that floated to the top with a slotted spoon, getting as much as I can (goodness sinks, veg rises). Then, I carefully siphon out the water above the settled material, except for 1/2 inch or so above the sediment. The remainder, I run through a mesh strainer (was told a hop bag works great for this step) then I put through a coffee filter. I use the coffee machine to hold it, and catch the runoff in a coffee pot. be meticulous and you end up with some nice shit. Good bud (Jacks Cleaner) yielded 8g/Z.
Take the stuff in the filter, scrape it out onto a plate or something to dry, then press and enjoy
good luck!Colorado patient grower. :rambohead:

if you use the drill:
for every 100g of trim you will get 10g of hash
about 5g will be bubble
if you do not use a drill and aim for the best:
for every 100g of trim
5-6 grams of hash
1-2 grams full melt
what I do is 2 runs
first run I aim for full melt and then the second run I aim for good bubble hash.
when it comes down to it:
100g of trim = 5 to 10 grams of good bubble
you will get different grades.
some full melt some half melt some just good bubble and some funky stuff thats good for making hash butter.

good trim works great.
the only thing you do not want to use is fan leaves.
you can get full melt with only trim.
fan leaves will leave you with green hash. you don't want that.

I heard the cheap bubblebags from china work fine except for the stitching will separate. Thats why I mix in a seperate bucket, plus it never settles in the bags. A little full melt on top of northern lights completely kicked my ass last night, no back pain at all :stoned:

I was lucky enought to pick up a 5 gallon bubble bag set locally for around 200. Made plenty of batched with it too. Just like homeboy said, no fan leaves = full melt.
