Cheap and Easy Hash Technique!,

TIP: The more you shake an individual batch the less potent it will be, vise versa, the less you shake the more potent it will be, reason being is the finest of the finest falls through first, I also recommend changing out your shirt once in awhile because of the ware and tare you get from small stems etc meaning larger particle will fall through other than what you want.

How long did you shake? the more you shake the more the leaf crumbles and will fall through, sounds like that is what's happening to you, should have no problems if you are using 100% cotton shirt, check your shirt under a light to see if there are any abnormal size holes, also try using less weight say half a buck and or double up your shirt.

Hope this helps!

yes this method worked great for me I used a mason jar which works great cuz the middle of the lid is removable. So then I stole one of my wifes silk langirea and used that as the screen. well i used a half ounce and got only the purest of kif out and made some really good light brown hash. this shit was real tasty just a nice energetic hi with no body buzz which i hate. ima try it with the quarters inside tonight as I am running low :mrgreen:

How dry should the trimmings be? I tried using the alchohol and coffee filter method but it didn't work out too well for me.

I find that dryer is better for quantity (not as potent, but lots of it), not to dry for quality (potent but lot less)

Note: the more you shake, and the more weight you use the less potent it will be, If you want really potent keif shake until the blond or brown (depending on the quality of trim) powder starts to turn green, once it starts to turn green that means the leaves are breaking up and falling through.

If you are using either a shirt or pantyhose, you may want to double them up for finer and more potent keif.

After shaking lots of keif, try using the following method for some good finger hash, if done right will be like Play - Doh

those resin heads are actually called tricumbs, i think what you are getting there bud are maybe some kalix's floating, or hairs for laymen.


never the more, thanx, learn something new every day...coffee grinder method i no. This one seems a little more versatile, no power needed.

Nah males don't have as many trichs or whatever their called and yes it's good to dry the weed a bit before shaking, but don't dry it too much.. try using some decent trimmings!

nice thread. love the concept.

you gave me the idea to use this method but slightly inhanced. i used a poster container which is a lot more heavy duty than a pringles container, cut the top open a bit and used panty-hose. results were good considering i barely put any choppings in there! check it out.

Nice Paradox, thanks for sharing this with us as not everybody has access to a pringles container (good idea) more ideas are better, also if you double up or even triple on the pantyhose you will get more of the finer stuff.

What I do is use the tshirt as it seems to be the right thickness, I lightly shake until the color of the powder starts to darken, then I stop, scoop it up into a pill container.

I have two containers, one that is marked with duct tape and the other unmarked, I will continue shaking what's left and it turns out more dark green rather than blond or brown, due to the fact the leaves are breaking up and falling through,

I will put the finest in the unmarked and the not so fine in the other, that way I will not waste as much and have some good tasty powder to sprikle over the trim and have some decent back up for when I'm lazy and don't fill like shaking, I usually shake enough to last me week at a time..


Again thanks!

Well I just finished!!

When I started, I was using the quarters like recommended. However, I was using a glass mason jar instead of the pringles......and well lets just say the mason jar didn't hold up very well with the quarters 0.o

So I ended up using dimes instead and not shaking so violently LOL

But there was one thing I noticed; I didn't get very much residue when I shook the container. I used a tshirt like recommended, I stretched the thing out as much as I could while shaking to allow the particles to come through....but I didn't get very much?

The majority of what I got was tiny crystals from the coffee grinder I used first to break up the seeds and stems I used. Do you think that's why I didn't get a lot that fell through because it was all in the coffee grinder?

I don't have any plants that I could use....nor did I feel like using weed that could be smoked if I fucked up, so I just used seeds, stems, and shake from the bottom of bags....

Here's a pic, thoughts?

*Edit
I took a little from the pile and added it to a bowl I packed before wrapping the rest up and compacting it. I took two hits and I'm higher than I would be if I had just smoked the bowl alone!!! I think this did the trick!! Thanks Humboldt for the method!! It tastes a little like seeds which sucks so next time I don't think I'll use the seeds LOL but nevertheless a good first time IMO

jomal that's sooo cool of you to post your results, I do hope people will take your lead,

Glass and metal really doesn't mix, have ya been smoking some killer buds prier? also you don't want to grind/cut anything, grinding only loosens up all the powder causing it to gather/settle making it very difficult to pass, that's what the quarters are used for .. weight to break it up as you shake, that way it will pass through much easier...

Try to find a plastic or non breakable jar/container, or use some heavy wood or plastic beads for weight, try using 100% cotton for filter.. Note: do not use stems, try to take them out if possible, stems will poke larger holes causing leaf matter to fall through..

Your images are hard to see but looks to me like a pile of grinded plant matter, try what I suggest , you'll see the difference..

....So I pretty much didn't make hash at all LOL

I don't get it I still tried using a shirt and it isn't working the way you're describing....it's just not coming through the shirt maybe the bud I smoke isn't good enough or something because I'm just not seeing anything here

So are you just supposed to use leaves from plants for this if you aren't supposed to use seeds/stems?

I don't know what to tell ya, what's yur shirt made out of? 100% cotton works best for me, try using silk, 1/2 polyester 1/2 cotton, or ladies stockings nylon..

Use what ever part of the plant you want just don't use stems, I use bud trim and shit shake at times, fans leaves will also give you something, not much but something... I will try to capture a video of it in action!

Keep trying it's not that difficult, sometimes it just takes getting used to, if you continue you will find what system works best for you, such has hand motion, how gently or hard you shake, keep this in mind, the less you shake the better it is, vise versa..

Ok so I definitely think I'm doing something wrong somehow...but I don't see how that's possible because this seems foolproof

I took almost an ounce last night and put it into a container. All buds. I then took a piece of 100% cotton Tshirt over the top of the container with quarters in the container ( I didn't use glass this time :) ) I shook the shit out of that thing and ended up with less than a bowls worth of residue on my surface

I don't smoke killer 'named' weed because it's too expensive where I live....but I don't smoke crap commercial either......I don't know what I'm doing wrong here but I'm not getting outcomes like I see here and on other demonstrations :(
