Alrighty then. I did 6 runs today and that was enough for this old man. 4 x 1 minute runs and 2 x 3 minute. The first and second runs I scooped the 45u and kept it separate. The 3rd and 4th runs I scooped together and ditto for the 5th and 6th, so I have 4 piles plus some scruff from the 160 and some chalk from the 25u. I stuck them in the freezer overnight along with my micro plane and I will plane them to start drying tomorrow.

Just as an aside, after I was done bubbling I sampled a small chunk of my Cherry Valley Hash that has been aging since last June. I tried some in my little APX Volt vape at 3.2V and wow . . . it is tasty . . . .

Yes, it is bad . . . but sometimes . . . you know . . . you just need that slam. Vaping creeps and smoking slams.
The CV tastes very good in a pipe as well, although I just smoke snakes rather than a bowlful - which is just too wasteful for one . . . :rasta:

Well, this is certainly the cleanest bubble hash I have made yet. I scoped it with my shitty USB microscope and it is looking great. I haven't weighed it yet since I will give it another day to dry but the scarcity of trichome tails is the first thing I noticed. Run 1 (on the right) does not actually look much cleaner than the others so I will combine everything except the scruff when I bottle roll it.

So a series of quick runs with as few ice cubes as possible - but cold, cold water - is the way to get the best quality.

And despite the fact that this strain was developed by reeferman for hash making - albeit for dry sift - the trichome production wasn't great and the return seems pretty low. Let's hope the quality makes it worthwhile.

hi, sorry but what material is left over? Precious trichomes still pass through your sieve... small but juicy brother
I agree. That confused me as well. My 160u bag typically has very little in it, so I always keep it and the 25u in separate piles. The 160 is grittier than I would like and the 25u is chalky so I never add them to my 45u-159u hash lump. I have started separating the 1st one-minute wash as my premium ultra-clean wash.
