OK, let me repeat it so there can be no mistake.... Fresh..... Frozen

First pic is out of the freezer. Wow, look at all that frost. LOL

Second is the puck. I just pressed this with my fingers.

3rd pic, wow, look at all that pretty water.

I usually wait overnight or a couple days for the water to dry but I tossed one of the 3 presses in the oven at 200F for 2 minutes just to help evap some of the water off a little more quickly.

Last pic. Look at that beautiful stuff. There is plenty more on the parchment. I just grabbed some off the edge.

Was this the way is was supposed NOT to work?

I'm going to go taste that. I'll be back.

Unfortunately, my attempts to press the hash were somewhat less humorous and definitely not as productive. Sad but true.

You're on the left (my right).

Nyuk Nyuk Boink !

The Fresh frozen inspired me so much, I went to the garden and grabbed a handful of fresh UN-FROZEN popcorn. Waiting for the water to dry off. LOL

Hash was the same old story.

A puck of hash. I broke off a couple pieces.

One went into the coffee filter, one into the tea bag.

As you can see, all I get is a flat piece of hash. No rosin ever comes out. What tiny bit does, is absorbed by the filter.

If I press any harder, the filter bursts and I still get nothing but a flat piece of hash.

Pics show how I kept bursting the filter paper. I even put the burst filter into a new filter. And, it burst.

If I go much higher temp, it all just turns into a dry flaky mess that has to be thrown away.

I think we have all gone through this, part of the learning curve when no one is there showing you. It appears you use way too much paper, also, the hash has to be very high quality.

Thank you

Anyone use this to make their own bag?

Fucking image search changes google made sure make it a pain in the ass to get an image link.

Addressed to the "you're poisoning people with dioxin from bleached paper products crowd".

Technologies for Reducing Dioxin in the Manufacture of Bleached Wood Pulp

Google it. Click the Princeton link.

Then read of the horrifyingly high levels of dioxin residue in various paper products. Average well below 50ppt.

Parts per trillion.

That jug of milk in your fridge is more dangerous. Clerks handling paper are near suicidal.

Prove me wrong.

Mikell, I'm not arguing your facts. However, do you really need to be so rude and condescending to make your point?

[Gypsy Nirvana]

Yeah.....behave yourself Mikell.

Less of the flaming and mundane profanity makes your posts look much better.

There is no need for all that man.

I use a vintage staple-less stapler to make my custom "bags" out of coffee filters. Same concept.
