NOW, LETS GET TO IT!
Gather all material and lightly break up (if not already), looking for consistency of cannabis. Now to look at bubble bags, the range in micron from 25 up to 220.
220 will consist of our work bag, these bags will allow us to mix all material being used. With the 220 bag we will take our remaining bags and shoe them into each other. Taking our 220 bag and adding smaller micron bags over it so each bag filters through each other collecting the hash left behind in each bag, the smallest micron being the last to pass through. Let’s add the ice, we are looking again for a 50/50 mix – that being 50% material 50% ice and let’s remember to be sure we have additional room for water and mixing as well.

Okay, so now with your bags in hand and set according to the size you wish to use, place them into your pail or container. Slowly add cold water and start the soft paddling of your mixture, continue with both until you start to get a consistency of weed soup. At this time, we can stop introducing cold water and continue mixing with much love. Once we are happy with consistency of the batch, we will continue with the removal of our work bag {220}. Set the leftover to the side for doing a second run if wished, second wash will collect the little remanding that sometime lags. Nevertheless, our first run will be our best of quality.
At this point we are ready to finish running any remaining cold water through our bags to help with the filtering, I like to use a spoon for this. I stir while adding recycled used water back through the bags. Once we have our wet hash material sitting at the bottom of each bag we used, we take a scraper of sort to reach into the bags and retrieve our hash – I like to use a credit card.
As we continue to scrape out every little bit there is, take a piece of cardboard or towel and lay the 200-micron drying pad over the top – this will allow excess water to escape without harming our hash. If we were to put our beautiful wet hash onto paper, it will dry to the paper substance used and start to infuse into the paper greatly affecting product quality.
So now that our hash has been placed onto our 200-micron drying pad, let it sit in a cool dark room anywhere from 12 to 48 hrs. Drying time always differs depending on temperature and humidity. Nevertheless, it shall dry.
Once dried, we can form or shape it to what we wish. The smallest micron bag, usually 25 microns, will be the purest of them all and be quite dark and sticky to the touch. The remaining other bags will be less potent. Once we have fully dried our hash, it’s time to cure it for some time in a dark airtight glass jar; we like the brown glass mason jars. While you let it cure and gain taste with the terpenes profile, you will be in for a great buzz. Curing can be from few days to many weeks, depending on what we like. Curing also tends to shy the harshness sometimes found in cannabis.
I hope this will help you in the future to become a master of the art bubble hash.
Truly yours, Christopher Yattaw
