Aloha,

This thread is called the Tail of the Black Cobra, or "why Bubbleman won't be getting my $249.00"

Ice Water separated Hash, as Bubbleman is (props) quick to admit, is easy.

Here's nothing but a photo-essay, no instructions.

Figure it out you cheapskates.

nice,what is that silkscreen?and bongos?

[HawaiianGrown]

Not silkscreen materials, though they can be purchased online cheaply and affordably.

I just go to the fabric store and buy some cheap tight weave synthetic fabric for a few bucks. Rubber Bands, free. Kitchen strainer and tea ball, $4.50. Clean new bucket $3.


Here's a shot of the remains of the snake the next day. Notice how much blacker it is due to oxidation caused by breaking the glands by force-folding and hand rubbing.

I like to slice a bit off the snake, heat slightly and press to a wafer for better burn.

I've done ice hash extractions with ghetto methods ....and while they work ok, it is almost impossible to get all the trics and maintain a good quality end product, your end result looks about as good as pressed dry sift ( nothing wrong with that!)..........whereas a professional set of bubble bags will make sure your hash comes in various grades and will be twice as pure due to the many filters it goes through and the yield of trichomes, not contaminants,will be slightly greater....ghetto methods are cheaper, not better

Homemade methods are ok, but it's like compareing a homemade skateboard and a board made for the pros, they both are rideable, but you can do so much more on a modern pro board ...one thing the ghetto methods do is give a new hasher an intro to ice hash,....but with the price of bubble at $70 per gramm ( or whatever it is??) and the inefficiency of ghetto methods, a new set of bags would pay for itself in ease, time and yield over a period of time...if you can afford them - buy a set of bubble bags, if you are not able to afford a set then do it yourself with a ghetto method.

Aloha Chambra,

Please don't try to elavate bubble bags to a higher position than they deserve.

Even the ghetto can purcase the microns of the exact same mesh for a few bucks -- absolutely no difference in quality!!!

and my most primative/cheap/ghetto (whatevers) methods of trichome collection is charas. I'll put my puna butter against full melt anyday!

Aloha

so you are telling me you know where I can buy medical grade screens of the caliber that they use to filter plasma. cool, tell me where I can get them then. If not save your pennys and buy a set of bubblebags, then you will get the point that Chamba is making. You just cant beat the bubblebags. I have experimented with home-made ice hash extractions, multiple screen dry sift systems (similar to the bubblebox but better), and I have done iso, butane, and acetone extractions. Still I have found the bubblebags to produce the best product. Bubbleman has put alot of time and money into his system, and still does. Hell I think there may even be a new bag coming out in awhile, but I will let Bubbleman say more about that when he is ready too.

What, pray tell, is wrong with the Swiss Mesh?


www.swissmesh.com

maybe the fact that the swiss mesh is for screen printing and not FILTERING.

[1/2man1/2amazin]

hey tell me more about the new bags,so I can save my money til those are released.

[pseudochile]

I agree. The bubblebags can't be beat and if you started with the same buds I would take the bubblehash over the method shown any day of the week. The last forever and are just so much more convenient.
