HEY! just in time for St Patrick's day! Well, couple months away. Silver lining lol
Chlorophyll , just as a guess as bubble not my forte , not enough ice, too much water picking up chlorophyll ? something like that prolly.

You've over worked it. Green is chlorophyll laden plant matter. I typically can only get about a 50% yield, before I start to pick up plant matter, so stop at that point.

So how would you use it?
I infer you wish to extract with ice and water, in which case I would break it up loosely with my fingers and freeze it to make the trichomes more brittle.

Add it to the ice water bath, and stir with a low shear paddle, or even a wooden spoon for small quantities.

You want to break up the material as little as possible to eliminate fines and ruptured cell walls.

There is a thread at the head of this column devoted to bubble hash, that I suggest you read.

Never had Green Lizard for St Paddy's, but have had some amber QWET tincture extracted with good 190 proof corn shine from a reflux still, that certainly got the job done. The alcohol rush cleared the way for what was to follow for sure....................

Is it the same for dried and fresh?

I have read this with interest as I just made my first batch last weekend. I think your question may have some legitimacy as I was working through 3 bags of different age product and the newest (just a couple months old) came out a bit green. Older stuff made nice yellow...and yes I used a variable speed drill to do my mixing. Been quite happy with the results of both the greenish and yellow though and look forward to the next time.
 
...a side benefit of last weekends activity was after first dumping and then sifting through the raw material prior to mixing it with the ice...was the yellow residue left in the bottom of my cookie sheet. Had quite a pile that I would scrap up and save. I later put it in my clay extruder (press) and made a couple disks that I shared with friends. Awesome.

Let your herb soak in the ice water for 10 minutes before hand. it was likely too dry and over worked.


Also having an 8 bag set helps bigtime. The 190 and 160 are very useful in catching contaminant and keeping it separate from your golden glands.
