Just got back from a busy town of holiday makers, back to simple life with new bags. Fullmelt Filtration. What is so exciting about these bags is they are locally made in South Africa.
Top quality packaging, 6 filtration bags color coded with the micron of the screen. 250, 190, 160, 120, 70 and 38 microns each, comes with handles on each bag and reinforced with a line of web tape.
I have kilo’s of trim that is just under 1 year old and a variety of strains. Breaking up the trim into smaller pieces and freeze blocks of about a 500 gram per block. Let that soak in cool water and then start the filtration. Hopefully going to do three runs with each block of trim and see what santa brings! Any help suggestions appreciated.
Hoppiefrop is correct, It will also take like 20x longer because the mesh being clogged so start with minimal amounts. I do a gallon zip lock bag full of little buds and trim with 5 gallon bags although I have never weighed the zip lock bags even though I should.
I eye ball my material bag fills… you want it able to move around and you want ice… just enough to keep the water cold as possible… also don’t work in your bags… use a 5-10gal bucket and the pour through your bags… it’s easier on the bags and makes them last longer…when scraping the bags use a frisbee or something to pull the bags over and tighten the mesh… makes it easier…
Gave these bags a run the past weekend and managed to get 15+ grams of some decent hash from about 120 grams of bud. I did two runs with these fullmelt filtration bags and got less yield on the 2nd wash. The bags were easy to use and made from high quality materials.
They were the easiest to turn into hash balls, heated them up in the over, rolled them with a warm glass jar and made them into balls. Have not smoked the 38 or 70 mesh. Maybe I should just try.
I tried the 70u hash. It burns nicely, strong hash flavor, no kick but it was from really badly dried old bud. Just wanted to test the bags as an old friend makes them and sent me samples to try.
Looking forward to the new harvest when I can try some fresher bud to wash. What you put in is what you get out.
