Making Hash With Bubble Bags?

Buttsack said:

I got some leaf from a friend which was just the bottom trimmings half way through growth, dried them and froze them and got about 0.8 grams of hash from about 200grams. This was my first and second try. I agitated it in the work bag with a cake mixer for about 20 minutes in ice then let it sit for another 5-10 mins. I then slowly did the process through the next 7 bags. I got the most out of the 45 micron bag then about half of that out of 25 and 73 microns.

Just a few questions now:

1 - Did I agitate it too hard and broke the trichomes?

2 - Would a paint stirrer work better in that respect and be more gentle but just as effective?

3 - Should I chop up the leaf before I mix it? Because a lot was getting clumped together and maybe not letting the trichomes drop?

4 - Is dry or wet leaf better?

5 - Is it better to freeze wet or dry, or even at all?

6 - In regards to the work bag can I just work in a bucket, eliminating the chance of damaging the bag and then pour it into the work bag? Or would that push it through the mesh too hard?

7 - Would I get anything out of stems if I grinded up the stems, either to dust or just finely chopped?

Any other suggestions on how long I should stir it for or let it sit for, or any other tips would be good.

I have some other harvest trimmings coming and just wanna do everything the best way to maximize results and minimize time. Thanks in advance
