The article about the DNA Genetics Meat Grinder Hash was a collaboration with Aqua Lab Technologies. The meat grinder has its pros and cons.
The bad affect of the meat grinder is when you are passing High Quality Resin the heat from the machine starts to breakdown the resin to much causing it to be to oily. Making it more harsh to smoke and less potent. Also very hard to handle. I prefer to leave the high quality stuff alone and press it when I want to by hand.
When working with lower grades of resin the meat grinder works great. It helps work the hash to bring out the oils. Making for a more even blend of hashish, that looks like the old Black Afghani.
When "working hash" it is a process of turning resin powder into Hashish. Buy doing this you are breaking the resin powder (Trichomes) into there oil. Causing them to stick together and form a piece of Hashish. When you break the trichomes you are exposing them to oxidation causing them to turn darker over time.
