Hey guys I'm new to the forum, thought I could get a little bit of advice from some professionals in the field.. haha.
A friend and I have been getting a lotta good quality pot recently and have been collecting all the trimmings, shake, and pop-corn nuggets that just happen to accumulate, nothings too smoke-able as it is to go towards hash I figure. We want to be able to make enough hash to last us at least a little while..
I read Hanky's thread and the 25% hash to marijuana ratio really turned me on to the idea of Acetone-Extraction hash, it seems very do-able and not entirely too complex.
But we're also trying to do this with a large amount of pure pot, anywhere from a quarter pound to a full pound, and not shwag.
Would it be best to invest in a set of bubble bags? Because thats what I've been thinking would be the best course. It seems like they can do a bigger job.. quicker?
Anybody have any advice on which method, size bags, way to go about preparing the pot beforehand, and possibly a comparison between the two methods and the yield from either?

I believe bubble bags will get you a much smaller amount of hash than other solvent methods but it will be of much better quality
I would do a butane or acetone extraction cause they are easy and get you lots and lots of hash

I would just get some sort of tray with a screen bottom and fill that with your bud
submerge that in acetone for a while and shake and stir it up, then take it out and press it so all the actone is squeezed out into the lower container
then repeat that a few times
then just let the acetone evaporate
BTW, that would leave you with oil, not solid hash

well yea, i would use hankys' method of screening first for a pile of kief to then use as a "flour to knead the dough" to work into the oily residue to make balls.. as similar as i can.. to his. haha.

in other words, you're combining the whole soak, strain, resoak steps into one big soak-n-squeeze off session? with the possibility for repetitions.. which i think would be necessary with a pound of bud, even after being busted and sifted for pure kief.

make sure though that the butane is full evap'd as the warning suggests or you'll make yourself extremely ill.

im not saying to ingest butane or anything but would it actually make you ill ?
would it just just burn off and be the same as say using a lighter to light a bowl ?

haha yea. we've both just grinded hard for a year full time working and his ass collected on some college tuition check so.. we both have the money and capability. and love hash.
but would it be better to jar up multiple batches of bud and strain them multiple times each or just do it all at once all together and do that a couple times thru with the acetone and then possibly use a 25 micron screen to allow just the pure thru and keep the muck out?
im brainstormin people, its a big operation and im goin for precise here.

You could do it all at once then strain it through a 25 micron filter then do it again and strain it through a tshirt or something and get a second batch of much less pure hash but at least you wouldnt be wasting your weed

Acetone will net more I have to believe, but it will be much more work. Chemical extractions are a pain in the ass (though I have only done butane so I can't speak first hand about acetone) You have to evaporate the solvent which is generally pretty dangerous, then you have to scrape the oil out of your collecting dish which is a sticky mess. If I were to do a large amount, I would have to say go bubble bags, or better yet, do everything except an ounce in the bubble bags; use the leftovers for acetone oil. That way you can do a write-up on the side by side comparison and share it on this site  .

I read an article somewhere of turning a old washing machine into a hash maker. You just have to clean it pretty well and u put the water out tube into some filters (like the bubble bags) then put your cannabis into the washer and turn it on, while haveing some clean water water pumped it first of coarse.

if you have so much trim and you guys love hash why don't you just get less yield and get some bubblebags and make great bubble hash?
