If you are looking for yield guys you better invent a new technic or better study the basic of traditional sieving. In a nutshell more sieving space to agitate your trims/flowers is better, bundling material in a small space hamper the fall of trichomes. Freezing is not what make the heads fall either.

I have tried traditional sieve methods and I always found it difficult to get high quality product that way. Too much leaf particles fall through with dried trim. I have read somewhere that it is better to do it with wet, cold trim with ice water method but Ive never done it with wet trim. any tips? also looking for a website to get some decent quality bags, or would it be better to use steel mesh sieve?
all the bags I got before would last me like 3 runs before id start finding small holes in them. (probably should be more careful of stems)

Also, let me ask you something else cus you would probably know better but I have always been told that when trichromes get very cold, they become brittle and break off easier. So in that sense, doesn't freezing (not necessarily in water but just to chill the trim in the freezer by itself) at least help them fall easier?

Looks pretty good so far. We see what happens when dries!

Frenchy, we are just trying new things for fun. No harm no foul, we know and respect the art, we are simply just having fun with it :-)

Freezing the stalk of the trichomes to make them brittle so that the heads fall is an illusion at best, the trichomes heads are made to fall by themselves when ripe. Would you freeze the stalk of an apple to make it fall from a tree?

Dry sieve is more difficult to master than ice water but the result can be as amazing check my favorite Hashishin couple @cubangrower and @cubanhashqueen they make real BOMB dry sieve.
Check Boldtbags for quality bags, you want lab grade sieve material.
I understand that you are playing around and having fun but studying the basic principles of sieving would bring more fun to the game.

Yeah I found Pocono and got a large 4 screen set for $140 after shipping and handling.

2Frenchy Cuban and his girl are some of my favorite growers/hash makers out there right now. Such cool people. Cuban is on Hash Church just about every week. And yes master dry sift to find the Holy Grail. So glad I pulled the trigger on screens.

What is more fun to study is really a matter of opinion but I do see your point. I am someone who does not waste time on things that I do not believe will work. That does not mean I do not experiment if I think its worth it, but I like to do things efficiently and as i most highly value my time and effort over all, I don't like wasting either. But I am also still on the learning curve so Experimentation is half the effort at this point until I know what I'm doing.

So I have tried ice water method in past, came out less than satisfactory my first couple times. I'd be willing to try it again cus I'm sure it gets better with practice, but I think I'm going to go with dry Sieve next chance I get I like this Pocono site.

I have also tried a method I had heard of a while back to chill the trim with dry ice chunks and then putting it in a bag and shake like a salt shaker over a sheet of glass. It seemed to work pretty good but still not perfect cus the dry ice would grind up the leaf so small it would start to fall right though after long. that one I don't want to do again. It made nice mid grade hash but not anything I would want to pay money for.

I shall make my attempt to become a dry-sieve-ninja! bongsmilie

Hold up, you got that from freezing in water? That seems pretty good to my eye but I'm no expert yet. Can't wait to see it fully dry.
Yes sir. Froze in water, thawed out (accidentally), refreeze and then gave bare minimal stir more so too help speed the melt. I used a 25u bag to collect this time. Looks to be almost a gram but I'll try to check it under a scope to see how it came out.

An experiment is an orderly procedure carried out with the goal of verifying, refuting, or establishing the validity of a hypothesis.
You need to apply logic and know your basic before experimenting

buddy, don't you think your being a little up-tight about this? honestly, its one dude at home experimenting with his own shit. he has every right to do whatever experiments he wants weather it be up to scientific standard or his own standard. It's not like he's trying to publish articles of his findings....... It is for fun! that means he can do it whatever fucked up way he feels like it.
smoke a bowl man, all is well. let the dude do his thing. bongsmilie
