Bubble too sticky.

Hey guys..ive been making bubble with the 5 gallon set from Sprung Bags using fresh frozen material a cpl of times now,and the hash i outta this world compared to the produce that comes from using dried material. One thing tho...the hash simply i too sticky...
I process the bubble like i would normally do....press the water out lightly with the mesh that comes with the bags, chop the hash up as much as i can...leave to let dry for some days in a dry room. The hash has now changed to a darker color due to oxidation, but is still extremely sticky. Id like to keep the hash in absolute powder form, but with this hash its simply impossible, it just collects into smaller "balls". Its like it has almost oil like properties. I tried freezin the hash, and grinding it into a powder while frozen, and this works really well...only problem is that when i remove the powder from the freezer it condensates, grabbing water from the air, and turns into this chocolate cake like texture....
Is the stickyness i sign that water is still trapped insde the trichome heads, from being fresh when processed, or is this hash simply just sticky as fuck?
Heres a few shots from a few different runs..first up is some bubble made off of powerplant material:

And heres a few from the last run...its a mix of deepchunk, bubbachunk, sourbubble, sourkush and v2:

wow! great hash man! that is some serious quality right there.

if you want it to powder up you have to let it dry for a while longer, ive made hash like that a few times, one of them was with casey jones, it took a good month to fully dry up and powder, i honestly thought it would never dry lol, some strains just take longer to dry.

trust me just leave it out for a week and see how it turns out.

thanks for sharing! :wave:
 
Bubble too sticky.

Many place their hash to dry on cardboard. This will pull the moisture out pretty evenly throughout the product. What are you drying on?
Great looking product btw!

Nah, when it's that sticky, it'll pull fiber off the cardboard. Yuch!

I use parchment paper and have fan air movin' around.

good drown

i remember reading mosca had some really good hash he entered in the CC this year. i think it was too sticky or gooey for them to pass out if i remember correctly. too bad too because the people that tried it said it was very strong and tasted amazing(it was from c99)

nice bubble man :D

freeze it. and then let it thaw out on the mesh over a paper towel, on a room temp surface. freezing and then thawing pushes out moisture though condensation.

or put it in a jar with like 20 silicon packets. you know the little things that keep beef jerky, or new shoes dry.

or mix dry bud kief with it.

Thanks guys and thanks for the advice.
Like highlighter said....cardboard is nasty, and leaves fibers in my hash..
KK and lmt are right...its slowly drying and becoming easier to handle...i must say that this hash is some straight up fire...i wish i could share it with yall. Maybe i can enter some in next years ICcup...i really wanted to go for these past years, but never had the bread for such a trip...but im thinking that next year might be the one...well see.

if you want a quick dry sample, put a piece of cardboard on your cable box or ps3 and leave it there for a few hours.. the fans and heat will dry it out.

nice shots.. looks fire.

Are u retarded? Put it on a paperbag on ur kitchen table for 3 days. U can't be this dumb... and who the hell wants powder form hash??? R u planing on railing or mainlining this stuff??? There is no way u r this stupid. And what's up with the pube, did u forget to wash ur nuts b4 making this hash? How about compressing it and leaving it out to dry for 3 days. Oh shit, I just came up with your resolution. Now I'm gonna blow some bubbles :blowbubbles:

Put it in a food dehydrator on the lowest heat, on top of shiny paper without fibers that come off.
I really don't like hash made from fresh plants, try drying the plants first then make the hash...

i always thought using fresh stuff for making bubble hash was supposed to be the best way. allowing for the least contaminates to get through and maintaining the most flavor?

I am not a fan of fresh plants being made into water sifted hash, it is my personal opinion thats all. I like the taste better from plants dried first. But also I really don't make water hash, because I prefer dry sift anyway.
