Reciently i have been finding that supercooling your bucket with the bubble bags in it also helped me a ton... get a tub bigger than your 5 gal and a few bags of ice put bucket in tub first then fill tub with ice and add shit loads of salt to drop the temp below freezing ive gotten to like -1 maybe colder before. driveway salt table or sea salt all work. Just to be clear the salt is added to the ice surrounding your extraction bucket not in the actual bucket with your ice and trim. Then pull stuff from freezer and add to you super cooled water ice mix Just a friendly tip seeing as your taking the extra steps to freeze fresh trim why not get the water as cold as possible also this aids in breaking the trics from the plant easier than it does when adding to just ice water also if you can crush the ice the jagged edges help break trics off also let know know if this helped anybody good luck!!!!
