The search feature here works ok with single word searches, but try searching for "hash cure" and it will show up an assortment of posts with either the word "hash" or "cure" in it.

and you're joking about checking out the foreign language forums for info aren't you? I'm not interested in general info, I'm interested to hear about findings from members who have done this specific cure, if you know of any results posted, please post links!

ok, now we're 14 pages in on the 37C hash cure and still not a single post from some one who has actually done it.

In Cherniak's 2006 HASHISH The Joy of Making and Curing he discusses curing resin in general and curing ice water extracted resin in particular, as I am sure you are able to derive from the title of the book....

....the point of discussion in this thread is a method put forward in his book, that is to jar and cure your unpressed resin in a general purpose laboratory incubator. The resin is allowed to cure for three months at 37°C (98°F).

I have not personally done this yet but was hoping to bounce around some ideas on the topic.

Depending on the genetics of the cannabis used the resultant cured resin is more likely to clump together. Hand rolling some of this resin into a ball of hash results in a proper looking "new Royal Nepalese Temple Ball", as Mr. Cherniak describes it. The point of this method however, isn't about the pressing but the curing of the hash.

I, like many of you reading this, prefer smoking unpressed, loose resin. If I have enough to store away it goes in the freezer so it won't degrade. BUT I know plenty of you (including good friends) who want those slabs and balls of hashish dough with their perfectly even consistency.

I am sorry I don't have any personal experiences with this exact method to share, but will eventually. I am pondering constructing my own small incubator instead of buying one; something small for two or three jars.
