I assume each bag is in its own bucket? Brilliant!

Thanks , the bottoms are cut out. This lets gravity do the work.

Everyone who makes water hash should make a 25m final bucket like I have ,
It works like a vacuum, the weight of the water gives you hydrostatic pressure, the screen is above the out valve , when you open it , it creates negative pressure, sucking the water through the screen.

I ran almost 90 gallons though a 25m in about 4hours .
5 gallon bag hanging on its own takes longer then that.

Nice looking setup! And the color looks nice.

After you put the hash globs on that chart/board what do you do to let them dry out? Just let them sit in a room with fans or anything else?

Where do you store the finished product?

Not a good idea to leave fresh product on the cardboard. As the cardboard absorbs
the water it will also make the hash stick to it.
After I’m done washing , I’ll put in a press screen n use paper towels to get more of the water .... then they can go back on the board to dry .
There’s a few ways to deal with the hash at this point.
If you want the best possible, take the hash “pucks” n freeze them. Then take a micro grader n bust them up. Then let sit out to dry for a couple days.

If I’m lazy , I’ll just brake the big pieces up n leave on cardboard, n deal with them later.

If I’m in a hurry , I’ll use parchment paper n a press, n will squeeze most of the water out that way, making it as big and round as I can, think pie doe. Then sit out to dry .

In my lungs .... lol

I usually smoke it pretty fast , so storage is never a concern.
But if I wanted to store long term , I’d wrap in plastic wrap n freeze .
But usually there’s a ball of hash just sitting on my desk.

Awesome advice, based on your new setup and your previous use, what are your recommended bags? Go cheap and replace often or are boldt bags or bubble bags worth the extra $?
Thanks

I’ve used a lot of different brands(except bolt)
I would recommend a high quality work bag(220) I’m using bubble bag 220.
The cheap work bags don’t last when using a drill n paint mixer .(never even looked at the quality of the 220 in the set, so it could have been good as the rest of the set is nice)
I have the all mesh, they don’t seem as well built, n I don’t like them as much.
I really like the wackybags. Best bang for your buck.
I picked up this kit
https://www.wackywillysweb.com/proddetail.php?prod=WBM8

I gave away the 220-25 with a 5g full mesh set. But I still have a set, might try 45-73 full mesh next time, or add bucket rings to give more room to prevent backup.


Biggest issue I see with the bags are , people trying to scrape that last little bit out n mashing it into the screen or damaging it, if the screen gets plugged during removal, clean with iso before next run.
Not cleaning n drying right .

When I’m done I rinse everything with a hose , n iso any screens that need it, then hang dry, then fold n put away nice.
Do that n they will last a long time.
I still have my 73m n a few other bubble bags from 20 years ago.

your set up looks amaze-balls

how do you wash the bags with iso? Fill a bucket and dip? or pour through?

I have Pyrex dishes with nice lids, Tupperware or a bowl will work.

Remove bag from bucket , flip inside out, put my hand on the screen like I’m wearing a huge glove n gently rub the screen in the iso, only takes 30sec .
Then I shake it out , kinda like your throwing a ball with a fast stop.

I've heard using a drill and paint mixer puts alot of leaf and green into the final material. I was told you want more of a gentle agitation for top quality hash.
