Making Hash with a Bandit
One of the greatest benefits to being a grower is the access to all of the trim and extra bud to do with as we please.
Some make edibles and some make hash as well as a myriad of other stoney things like tinctures.
Me, well I'm a hash guy.
This year I made a big effort to jack up my grows just so I could make more hash. I ended up growing enough to where I was able to not only use trim but I actually began to
donate entire plants to the hash bucket.
These pics are from the trial run of a new washing machine i got off ebay as well as a press & a set of five one gallon bubble bags to use as strainers.
I used about 4oz of frosty trim to make a big slug and a fat puck of hash.
Ready for action!
Sack 'O trim & ice
Drop in the bag and then fill up the machine with ice water
Turn the timer to 15 minutes and the machine goes into action!
This is a good time to fire up a lefty and trip out on what going down!
This is what the concoction looks like when the machine stops
The next step is to drain the machine thru the various bubble bags. For this one I just wanted a big fat puck so I used the tightest micron bag i had to catch everything that was'nt liquid
Fresh out of the bag
Pressed on wax paper w/ a rolling pin and then left to dry for a couple days
T press w/ magnetic handles ; another ebay special!
The Puck
The Slug
All in all I'm very happy with results! The hash I made is very stoney and is great on it's own or mixed with a joint or bowl. The high is very euphoric and heavy. It's great on a Friday or Saturday night chillin' at home with friends & family.
It took me about a month to burn up that batch. Hopefully this week I'll be able to brew up another batch with 5 gallons of frosty trim & nugs i have in deep freeze
