Steps to Make Bubble Hash with Ice Water
1. Chop the cannabis: Finely chop your cannabis into small pieces for the most effective extraction. 2. Mix ice and water: Combine one part water and one part ice in a pitcher to cool the extraction process. 3. Strain through the mesh screen: Place the chopped cannabis on a fine mesh screen over a container. Slowly pour the ice water mixture over the cannabis to start the extraction. 4. Rinse the screen: Once the liquid becomes less cloudy, gently agitate the screen to release more trichomes into the water. 5. Repeat: Continue this process, adjusting the amount of cannabis and ice water as needed until all material is processed. 6. Dry the hash: Use a bath towel to squeeze out excess water. Let the hash dry at room temperature until it's dry to the touch.
Quality Check
The quality of bubble hash can be determined by its clarity and texture. The hash should be clear, amber in color, and feel smooth to the touch.
