You have to shake it...It's all in the wrist! Did you make a work bucket drilled with holes to put your bags into?
Yeah teh 25's tricky
That looks delicious!! And it's a cold night here and now I want pasta!!
My grandma use to make lasagna with zucchini squash instead of the noodles sometimes...in the summer when there was an abundance of them...It was tasty!!

I have two buckets, I was going to use one for the work bag, then dump it into the second bucket with the smaller bags.

Have fun!
How many bags are you using?
Cut the bottom of the bucket off a third of the way up for each bag and stack those on top of an intact bucket.
All that remains in the bucket is some amazing smelling ice water, which I give to my blueberries.
I run the batch repeatedly until I don't get any resin.

Here's how I do it.
I have my mixing buckets...regular 5 g buckets and I'll put about a gallon bags worth of frozen trim/smalls in the bucket, with a few inches of ice above and below it, then fill it with water above the ice and let it soak 15 minutes to saturate everything, with a few light stirrings. I usually have 3-4 buckets going.
Then I have another 5 gal. bucket with lots of big holes drilled in it. About 3/4" holes all over the sides and bottom, then I stack my bags in here. I only use the 36, 72, 90....those are the good ones. and I save 120 for food. I let the 25 go right down the drain!
So I have a total of 5 bags stacked...the 36,72,90, 120, and your work bag on top.
So now the material has been soaking for 15-20 minutes in ice water...you can mix it with the paint stirrer...gently, just for a few minutes the first time. The first run is usually the best stuff but you can keep re- running it until you stop getting hash...Usually at least 3-4 times, but I have gone 5-6 before. Then pour it through your bags. A laundry sink works great!! If you have more buckets, dump them through the screens.
THEN, you can pull your bags and collect the hash. You scrape it off gthe bottom with a plastic card then squeeze out the excess moisture. You can gte it to collect by bouncing the bag up and down quickly. Kinsd of a snapping motion gets it to gel together. Then I just use a towel and step on it inside a screen, then put it on a [piece of cardboard to dry...the cardboard helps pull the moisture out.
You'll be able to sample some while you work, but it'll be better tomorrow after drying some more. Then yo can press it, or chop it up, or whatever you want.
It is a lot of work and I always have a sore back the next day pouring all those buckets full of ice water and shaking the bags, etc. but I usually wind up with an ounce of full melt hash out of trim that would have been thrown away.
You'll gte better at it as time goes by, like everything.
Then I clean my bags good after by soaking them in a vinegar and dishsoap solution then wash them in the washing machine. I have the Bubble Bag Dude brand and they have been used 15+ times and still in good shape.
Have fun with it...Great sleep med!

the 36,72,90 micron bags will produce the good stuff!!

Damn I feel defeated.
Out of the 2 rotovapors I ordered, neither is happening. After getting the damaged one yesterday I checked tracking on the new one that was supposed to be delivered today. Well it hasn't been shipped, just a label created. Well after complaining I got a refund and told it was lost in shipping, which is a lie, but whatever.
In the meanwhile I have purchased everything else from a vacuum aspirator to Buchner funnel to syringes for this project....Damn!!
But I am a strong believer in fate, so maybe there's a reason...And the reason is I am going to start with basics, and get a cheap, basic vacuum distillation setup and go from there, just like they would in college! But I am still bummed!

You're in good shape and will find that you can do a lot with this, as you get familiar you'll start improvising. In labs, you learn how important the basics are

Thats actually a great way to do it anyways and saves a step!!
And if you don't have a 36 micron bag then it will get caught by the 25 micron making the 25 better...

Either I haven't seen or forgot to ask; do have any separatory funnels? Extremely handy to have

I am going to order a distillation set today, but not really sure which one yet. Maybe something like this... Is steam distillation something that is done with cannabis? They have the separator mislabeled in this diagram

edit: but it's not thatefficient in CBD, plus if not careful controlling temp it can damage CBD. It's a common process for extracting plant oils like in the perfume industry

Have you ever used a 220 zipper bag in the machine? I've seen those before. I don't plan on getting a machine unless I get some donations for what I make to pay for it.

You may already know this: folks have gotten those mini RV washing machines dedicated for hash making; they range from hand cranked(~$50) to electric (~$100-300); they direct the drainage through the stacked hash bags. I've been considering doing that
