📌What Is the Purpose of Using Different Micron Bubble Wash Bags for Ice Water Extraction?

Wash bags are the central piece of gear used in the ice water extraction process, a solventless method of making bubble hash. Wash bags are nylon bags that fit inside of a bucket and stack one inside of the other, secured along the top rim of the bucket. Wash bags are made in various sizes to accommodate different amounts of cannabis material.

The Difference Between Air Drying and Freeze Drying Bubble Hash

Ice water extraction is the most effective and efficient way to collect loose resin from cannabis for making bubble hash or hash rosin. Hash makers mix ice water and trichome-rich cannabis material together to knock the trichome heads free, and then isolate those heads using a set of sieving screens, also called bubble wash bags. The trichome heads, or resin, is soaking wet when extractors collect it from the sieves. In this saturated state, it’s unworkable and prime for harboring microbial growth like mold and mildew.

Task Specialization vs Cross-training in Your Solventless Lab

From material intake to jarring and packaging, a solventless manufacturing operation has a lot of moving parts. In order to keep these parts working in sync, it is important to be intentional in how you assign tasks and delegate responsibilities. One particular area to consider is striking a healthy balance between task specialization and cross training of employees. Properly utilizing your employees diverse work histories and skill sets is critical to maximizing your success.

Genotype vs. Phenotype: What’s the Difference & Why It's Important To Solventless

Plant genetics play a significant role in the success or failure of solventless extractions. The genetic makeup of a cannabis plant dictates its uniqueness as a specific cultivar, making some cultivars more desirable for solventless production than others. Genetics determine the quality and quantity of resin that a plant will produce, which are both top considerations for extractors. What Is a Genotype? The cannabis plant genotype refers to the genetic makeup or DNA sequence of an individual cannabis plant.

Guide to Carb Caps and How To Use Them

Carb caps are round, hollow, often globe-shaped coverings that fit on top of the banger, or bowl, of a dab rig. They take on different shapes but are normally bulbous or somewhat cylindrical with a little hat on top. As their name implies, these accessories cap off the open top of bangers while the user takes dabs. They sit loosely onto the top edge of the bowl so that they’re able to swivel around during use. The design typically includes a small hole or series of holes, which allows the user to control the amount of air that is allowed to flow through the banger.

What Are Terp Pearls, Terp Pillars, and Hollow Pillars and How To Use Them

Terp pearls are small, often spherical pieces of heat-resistant material that are used in conjunction with a dabbing nail or banger to enhance the dabbing experience. They are commonly made of quartz and come in a variety of sizes and shapes from round, pearl-like orbs to cylindrical pillars and more. But what is the purpose of these little dabbing accessories? When heated along with the concentrate, the terp pearls create dispersion in the banger

The Relationship Between Plant Genetics & Extraction Methodology

Specific extraction methods are capable of showcasing a cannabis cultivar’s unique qualities to various degrees. Some extraction methodologies can target only specific components of a cultivar’s genetic expression, creating a final product that lacks a holistic representation of the starting material. Other methodologies capture the essence of the particular plant genetics in its entirety, amplifying the traits of the starting material in aggregate rather than selecting specific elements to exhibit.

How To Use Pressurized Water To Clean Contamination from Bubble Hash

Even the best washes are susceptible to contaminants, tiny pieces of plant material that slip through the wash bags along with resin heads. While hash makers can force this green chlorophyll through most of the sieves with pressurized water, leaving only the trichomes in the bags for collection, this isn’t so easy when it comes down to the 45 and 25 micron bags. Water by itself often won’t push the contaminants through the minuscule pores in these bags.

Cultivar vs Strain: What’s the Difference & Why It’s Important

“What’s the best strain?” is a common question in the world of cannabis. The term “strain” has long been used to denote a specific variety of cannabis that includes unique traits that set it apart from other varieties. Certain varieties of cannabis produce a lot of resin, others not quite as much. Some varieties grow big, chunky flowers, while others grow more wispy buds. One of the best ways to tell different varieties of cannabis apart is by the way they smell, which is a signal of the specific terpene profile they exhibit.

The Best Lighting For Growing Indoor Cannabis for Solventless

Lighting is one of the most important factors for growing cannabis indoors. Light is the primary source of energy for plants and is essential for photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy to fuel growth and development. Adequate and proper lighting is critical for cannabis plants to grow healthy, strong, and produce high-quality buds. What’s more, the right lighting allows those buds to develop the richest and most potent resin possible, which is the holy grail for solventless extractors and hash makers.

The Difference between High and Low-Quality Seams in Rosin and Bubble Wash Bags

High quality seams make a good bag great. As the make or break joint between various segments of fabric in rosin bags and bubble wash bags, seams need to be able to perform under pressure. Compromised or low-quality seams just won’t do. When sourcing rosin bags and bubble wash bags for solventless extractions, it’s critical to focus on the seams and make sure they’ll hold up through rigorous use.

Preserving Terpenes from Harvest to Dab Rig

Solventless concentrates are known both for their richness in terpenes and their fidelity to the plant’s distinct terpene profile. Preserving these terpenes requires care and intentionality at each stage of the product life cycle from farm to dab rig. In this article we’ll cover critical steps relevant at each stage of the process that you can take to “preserve the terps” and produce a concentrate that faithfully reflects the flavor and aroma of the source flower.

Step by Step Guide on How to Make Solventless Edibles

Solventless edibles are made by infusing a food or beverage with an extract like rosin or bubble hash. Extractors can use the regular methods to create the solventless extracts, then the extracts need to be decarboxylated, which means heated in order to activate the THC and other cannabinoids. Gummies, tinctures, capsules, and chocolates are common forms of edibles made with solventless extracts. Rather than cooking solventless extracts directly into the edibles recipe

Every Type of Quartz Banger Nail & How To Use Them

A quartz banger is used to vaporize cannabis extracts, also known as "dabs," in a dab rig. The best nails are typically made of quartz, which is heated to a high temperature using a torch. The nail, sometimes called a bowl or “banger”, slides into the stem of a dab rig and can be interchanged for alternative types of nails. This means that a single dab rig can deliver different dabbing experiences based on the type of nail that’s used with it.

Mythbusting Indica and Sativa Distinction

The dichotomy between sativas and indicas is the most prominent division in cannabis. Promoted for decades as the best way to differentiate between various cultivars, sativa vs indica is familiar to most people who have smoked a variety of strains of cannabis. Cannabis indica plants are generally shorter and bushier, with wider leaves, and a higher THC content than cannabis sativa plants. Cannabis sativa plants are typically taller and thinner, with narrow leaves, and they have a lower THC content.
