dont put the lighter under it for a couple seconds do it for like A second or your just acivating the thc and jewing yourself out of all the good stuff, hot knife that shit or sprinkle a bit in a joint or on a bowl. the hash i get is pure enough that i can just break off a little peice and bust it up between my fingers because its basically just pressed trichomes but it does cost a little more then that nasty brown hash i see a lot of people smoking
