Blender Hash Goodness

So a while back I found a pile of trim and some nuglets that were drying had gone moldy. This displeased me, but allowed me an excuse to make some crude water extract. Blender hash is a safe solution for processing moldy disasters.
There's a tonne of how to's out there, but i finally found my favorite method.

1. First freeze the trim/nuglets. I prefer fresh trim for this as dry trim seems to form finer powder. Unless you have bubble bags this will be a problem. If you do have bubble bags, stop making blender hash.
2. Make an ice and water slushy in the blender. It is important that you do this first as the big chunks of ice tend to smash and collect resin if not broken down. Put this in a jug and keep it cold.
3. Add trim/nuglets on a slow mix type setting, or just pulsing the blender, mix for 30 seconds. Check that the leaves are not mashed up. Just stirred up.
4. Pour into a coffee bodum or metal coffee filter and strain into a clear container with a wide mouth.
5. Add more water and repeat steps 3 and 4 three more times with the same bunk adding more ice slushy as you go.
6. Let the collected green water settle for an hour or so. You'll see a sediment of light brown resin heads forming on the bottom. There may be some green sediment as well depending on how gently you blended it up.
7. Use a syringe (like for a pet, not medical), straw or small hose to remove and discard the top layer of water. Be careful not to disturb the sediment. This can be tricky. When I'm getting closer to the bottom, I save the water, remove it and let it settle again in case I kicked some glands up.
8. When the containers are all low, pour them all into one container, with a bit of a cold water rinse. Let this settle.
9. Remove the top layer of water from your final container. Now add more cold clean water! I know, this is a psych, but it will settle faster this time an pull lots of nasty green $hit out. Repeat this step until the water is clear when settled.
10. Remove as much water as you can. If you have a syringe then you can carefully draw in most of the green sediment and save it as a lower grade product.
11. Pour through a coffee filter. You can use a syringe or spray bottle, or even just dripping water water from your fingers to push the resin to the center of the filter as it collects.
12. Scrape it out of the filter and into some wax paper or a plate.
13. Place in a oven at 220F for five to ten minutes.
14. Dry out. I like to dry it for several days at least. No need to cure as the water has achieved the same end result.
15. Flatten a small wafer out and burn it in a bong or even better, some sort of hot surface smoking device like hot knives or budder torches.
16. Get somewhere you feel safe. Quick.

Thats it! I know there are plenty of these, as I've said, but I figure this is the best way to go about it without proper bubble bags. The results of the last run were fantastic light brown easily handled wafers.

Good directions but one part isn't clear to me. At the end of step 2, you are putting the slushy mix in a jar and setting aside and in step 3, you are adding trim on a slow mix setting. To what? An empty blender? Are you just setting some, but not all, aside in step 2 and leaving some in the blender? Please clarify.
