i tried a new pressing technique. i think i may stick with this one.
needed:
small mason jar - 1/2 liter
vacuum sealer bag
oven
fully dried and sifted bubble hash
feet
i start by drying my sifted hash until fully dry. it should feel like sand.

once fully dry i place it in the mason jar and pre-heat the oven to 140 degrees.

once the oven is heated i place the jar in the oven on the middle rack for about 10 mins. i then remove the jar and using my thumb and fingers i press the hash against the inside of the jar. i do this until the hash molds together. it is very soft when warm at this point but becomes hard and crumbly as it cools. i had to heat it and press it in the jar 3 times to get it to form into a single handleable piece.

i cut a small piece of vacuum sealer bag and sealed one end to make an envelope.

after the piece has been formed it is put back into the jar and placed back in the oven for 10 mins. once removed it is placed inside the sealer bag and then stepped on with the heel of my foot on a hard tile floor. i use just the very end of the heel of one foot. i weigh 200 lbs. i move my foot around the edges first to keep it all from spreading out. once the edges are worked i then move to the center and work my way outwards. this takes about 10 to 15 mins per stomping.

once a pancake is formed it is placed back in the jar and heated. after it is removed from the oven i fold it over itself while warm.

i then form it into a block, put it in the sealer bad and stomp it again.

i continue this process over and over again. each time the hash because softer and stickier. what i am doing is actually bursting the trichome glands. by doing this i am decarboxylizing the THCA into THC. this hash is edible raw.


once it reaches the desired consistency, about 10 to 12 stompings on this piece, it is weighed and stamped. the patty is soft and bendable. it would shatter if dropped onto a hard surface. it will stick to my hand when turned upside down. when heat is applied it melts and bubbles. good stuff.
