Butane Extraction is cheaper but uses Chemicals to create BHO/ Wax..
While the Bubble Bags uses a more natural method to create different quality hash..

I didn't know THC was water soluble? How does the Bubble Bag method create quality hash this way?

Its not water soluble, thats why the process works.

I make dry Ice hash then use butane on the leftovers to extract everything.

Weed is chemicals dude... chemicals, without life chemicals would be impossible.

If you think about it, if the thc glands were water soluble they would wash off when it rained or you folyer sprayed, they wont melt or break down in water,they get very hard and brittle in very cold, water and ice chill the glads and they break off the plant matter in ice and water and fall through the fine mesh of the bags the first one keeps most of the plant matter out, the finer the mesh the different qualities and the less plant material, also some people like to put hash making material in freezer before they use it.

Over the long run it is not cheaper. Good butane is around $50-$70 a case. I have used some $35 bubble bags for years. I bought a bubble machine. It and the bag it came with will last years.

I prefer quality bubble hash over oil. It is not as strong, but it tastes really good.

freeze your trimmings wet and hand stir or get a machine and you are on your way to full melt bubble hash

Personally, I would do both...because both are phenomenal. I like oil more, but butane gets expensive, so half and half would be reasonable.

IDK This whole dabbing thing doesn't sit right with me, Cause Unless I know clean and good Butane was used in the extraction I don't wanna smoke the residuals chemicals in butane when I can smoke an organic flower off my plants. I have the 5 gal bags and i always run my trimmings through with the ice water technique but get VERY VERY Little hash, So i considered BHO but decided against it because unless I make it IDK if it was properly done. just my opinion.

That's why purging BHO is so important. If you purge it correctly with heat/ a vacuum, it will be safe to smoke. I didn't like hash oil either because butane sounded funky to me but once you understand purging it's amazing!

C) Tumbler

:)

Maintains flavor better than Ice hash, also works kinda like that ronco turkey cooker its basically set it and forget it. For mass quantity ice hash from washing machine has its place, also BHO is nice but continues to cost you money every time you run it, also its sticky and a PITA to deal with. Tumbler is my preferred method.

Water hash all the way for me. Butane extractions taste like crap (to me) and send me into a fit of coughing and sneezing. Sure they are potent, but it's just not enjoyable for me.

My favorite is bubble hash made from frozen wet trim and a short 5 minute stir with a big spoon. So pure, gooey, smooth, and flavorful. Making my mouth water just thinking about it. :)
