PaRaLyZeD-420 said:Sieving the kifSeparation by size, also known as "dry sieving," is the most
widely used commercial hashish production technique. The concept is quite
simple: Trichomes are small, while (most) all other plant parts are large.
Rubbing or agitating trichome-laden plant matter over a porous surface will
result in a fairly pure powder of trichomes that can then be pressed into
hashish.
Devices designed for this technique come in all shapes and sizes, and a great
range of prices. One example is "The Pollinator" invented by Mila in Amsterdam.
This is essentially a cylinder of sieving screen that you place the
trichome-laden plant matter into and slowly rotate. A collection plate at the
bottom catches the loose trichomes for later pressing. Another example is the
popular "kif box." These handmade, attractive wooden boxes are a wonderful way
to catch lost trichomes from your stash of buds.
Creating a small dry sieving device for bulk trichome separation is a simple
process. Begin by finding two tightly lidded containers that nest together. Any
of several "disposable" food storage containers, such the Zip-loc brand, will
suffice as long as there is a "short" inner container that nests tightly inside
of a "tall" outer container. You will also need a section of loosely woven nylon
or silk fabric, such as a knee-high stocking or a scarf to use as the sieve.
Begin by removing the bottom of the inner container. A pair of scissors and a
minimum third grade education should work out well. Stretch the nylon or silk
fabric over the mouth of the outer container and press the inner container into
the outer container until they "lock" together.
Placing your very dry trichome-laden matter in the freezer prior to and during
sieving will enhance harvest potential. Letting the contents of your shaker
settle between loads will reduce trichome loss due to wind turbulence.
Place very dry trichome-laden matter into the inner container directly onto the
stretched fabric. Fit the lid tightly onto the top of the inner container and
begin to shake the entire device firmly and deliberately. Occasional taps onto
the palm of your hand or a table top will also help to free up those glands.
When you get to the end of your trichome-laden matter, go right back and do it
again, and then again for a total of three times.
Let the contents of the shaker settle. Gently remove the inner container from
the outer container to reveal your collection of trichomes. Unless the hashish
is intended for immediate consumption, the trichomes should be dried before
pressing to decrease chances of mold. Spread the powder out on a piece of black
and white newspaper (no colors) or blank cardboard and leave it in a warm
draft-free location overnight.
