going to run a 1/4# some pretty dry Jilly Bean trim.

any specifics I should know?

Any hints would be appreciated.

PS will be working on hash for some flower pairings.

Im thinking blue dream and also Soma's Lavender.

tasted some blue dream 120micron with some 8 month old cured blue dream Flower.

produced a really relaxed zone type buzz.

Any thoughts on this idea?

All opinions specific ideas constructive criticisms appreciated.

Thanks In advance.

Re-humidify well your material

Why do you prefer not to freeze the material before you run it again? I'm About to do a couple runs this week and I'm going to try them without freezing the material before hand and using a lot less ice than I did before.

something about bursting the plant cells and releasing minute particles chlorophyll into the Mash and them ultimately into the catch bags

I don't freeze fresh material because it is made of 90% of water when frozen it expand approximately 9% which explode the leave matter from the inside out, not good.
I don't freeze dry material because it is pointless, there is no need to freeze the stalk of the trichomes to make the heads fall easy because trichomes are made by mother nature to fall at the smallest touch

" old school" hash pressing from last july which seems to be done exactly as described in Cherniak's Great books of Hashish from the 70's except for the use of a gas cooking flame and plastic or cellophane packaging.
Note the nice chunky unpressed "garda" which we call dry sift or resin that he starts with.

I have never seen somebody starting up like that but the guy is working a huge chunk, my Afghanis friends would make a face at that especially open gas stove flame, they were hard core hand pressed Hashishins

Yes, 200 grams seems like a lot to hand press without the flame and water described in Cherniak bk 1 . I'd be a bit more concerned about the melting of the plastic bag to seal it like he did and must confess to having laughed when the guy started using his toes, though he may have been joking. Still,I find it nice to watch in good quality video and with nice rabab music in the audio. A look into a culture most of us will never experience first hand.

that's for sure it is a shame that we were so parano in my time about photos and filming but we had valid reasons to be

What if you have a frost free freezer that sublimates the moisture?

Similar to Ed Rosenthals freezer cure method

I have no idea but with sublimation you have a source of heat involved which can't be good with fresh material (awesome to dry resin on the other hand), but if you don't have a very large amount of material to process you can always keep the buds in water like florist do with flowers and keep the material fresh for a week to 10 days
