I have made ice water hash quite a few times. Once I ran several pounds of subpar bud. As a guerrilla grower subpar bud was part of the gig so theres always some hash. Mother nature owns the crop not me.
I used a large Bosch hammer drill(hammer function off) with those metal paint mixers. The nice one with the welded circle of steel on the end. I had the 5 gallon bubble bags I only used three bags. On each mix I would pull 4-5 inch patties of wet hash and lay them on cardboard. Put the cardboard on top of the heating ductwork to dry. I never put it through the spaghetti strainer.
I always ended up with 2 -3inch dried patties of hash. It was always black on the outside but when broken open you saw the golden goodness.
I understand when it goes through a strainer you are helping get all the moisture out of the hash. I never had a problem with mold it never lasted that long. It was gone to friends.
Is that the only reason to run it through the strainer and not just dry the hash in small piles?
Couldn’t you just freeze it if you were worried about mold?
