My favorite part is how he warns you of wearing gloves and then has no gloves on :joy:

this might not be true… not sure that you can get into the right pressure range.

I have however lyophilized several hundred maize tissue samples without freezing them first. they were frozen within the first 15min.

Was that pressed wet? How was it dried if washed

There are old school techniques without a freeze dryer… but the time loss is painful.

Tip 5: “Once you have powdered the hash properly, now it’s time to DRY IT. I use a desiccant-like cardboard. It’s lined with parchment paper, and once closed, the cardboard can pull and wick moisture from the hash. This is very important, as you will not dry the hash properly on a plate, or plastic, or metal or anything that is NOT going to wick the moisture from INSIDE the hash.
An addendum to Tip 5 is once you have your hash dry ( 7+ days in the cardboard box), you can now actually CURE THE HASH. Once you have DRIED the wax membrane of the trichome head, you can allow for the hash to cure and stabilize. I have some that has been curing for more than seven years, and is stable beyond stable. I have friends who have hash that is a month or two old, and is buttering out. Always dry and cure your bubble hash properly.”

That’s a great idea, it’s nuts to me hr’s are the only freeze dryer for the retail market.

There’s some YouTube vids on a diy setup, but it’s not practical whatsoever.

Like stated above, you don’t need a freeze dryer. Many people believe that it is better and truly craft, to air dry over 10-14 days in the proper environment before pressing. I have never done and only have a basic understanding of the process. That being said, you wash material, and spoon it onto like 4 x 4’ 25u mesh squares that are on a pan of parchment. You then freeze rosin for 24hrs or so, cryo preferable. Remove frozen pucks and then micro plane evenly over parchment. Set parchment to dry and cure (not sure temp or humidity) in a cool dark place for 10-14 days. If anyone has done, I’m sure they can shed allot better detail and clarify process.

Papaya is like THE rosin strain so if they’re blaming the strain for low yield then I think they pocket more of the yield than you bargained for

That’s what I needed to hear. And yeah I think they got me for about half. They couldnt even get the right numbers to me on it.

This was the first thing that came to mind but everyone was so focused on the tek I started thinking, “am I too cynical?”

Papaya is a super popular Cali 2019 strain.

Never enjoyed the fruity terps personally so I never squished any.

They definitely said it’s the strain. And I’m thinking why would your company wash and press this if that’s the case? And this is a license company. They definitely got me and took 3 weeks on it. Couldnt get the numbers right. All signs point to rippers. I gave the other room to another hash maker. So I’ll be comparing results for sure.
