just throw it in the freezer to help maker the heads brittle. With my last batch of oil i made i didn't dry the trim, just cut it right into a tupperware and let it sit in the freezer. Came out just fine.

that's more the case with bubble hash, not solvent hash.

how do you mean acetone dissolves water? Do you mean it absorbs it? No, it really doesn't matter since you're not trying to separate the heads from the leaf matter for collection. Solvent hash is an extraction, you're extracting the THC from the trichome heads not collecting the heads themselves. Even if you did use a solvent that absorbs water, at worst you just add a slight amount of time to the evaporation process.

also, i'd like to point out, unless you're buying anhydrous acetone it already contains water

dry out your acetone with some epsom salts too, that will help reduce water left over in the extraction process.

you buy epsom salts, bake them in the oven until they turn into an ashy like substance, and then you add it to the acetone and let it sit for a while. The water will be absorbed by the mg sulfate you created.
