Bubble has it is. Thanks guys! What all should i order for it? Have a couple hundred to throw into it if need be.
A set of "Bubblebagdude" bags are like $53 for an 8 bag set, a little less for a 5 bag set. I don't recommend the all mesh bags, they are PITA to work with. Last year, I bought a set of bags, did 1 wash by hand, said screw this, then went and bought a washer. I've done 25 or so runs with it and it's still running good. Total for bags and washer was around $75. Prices have gone up quite a bit. You can get the "kit" on Amazon for around $154. Bags are around $37-$53 depending on 5 or 8 bags, and a washer around $70-80.
The wife likes the Hash way better than flower, and so do I. Still have quite a bit left from last years running, and going to wash a whole bunch this year, and stash away.
I HIGHLY recommend watching the Frenchy Canoli 5 part series on Ice water hash, it's very informative and helpful if you've never done it before.

Everyone jumps to bubblebags which is great for water hash. I noticed you said you sifted it, so I'm guessing you dry sift of which I'm a big fan as well. An easy, inexpensive way to get the results you're after without any more investment is to toss your trim into freezer bags and place in the freezer for a few days to get good and cold. Sift the frozen trim and the brittle, frosty goodness will fall right off. You're welcome.

If you want to make bubble, I recommend looking up Frenchy Cannoli. He has passed away but was an expert on hash.

The bags he used are pretty expensive but will last forever:

He typically only ever used the 220, 160 and 45 micron bags. 220 used as a work bag and 160 + 45 pressed together into temple balls. Most everything above 160 and under 45 are contaminate and excluded. I never used the cheap bags, so cannot say much but bag quality is important.

For a washer, any washer like this will work:

But you will need to replace that accordion-style hose with a smooth hose otherwise half your hash will be stuck in it. Frenchy goes over that much as well.

The issue with dry ice method is you will get a shit load of contaminate. It freezes the leaves and shatters them as small as the trichs so your hash is going to be green as hell. If you want to do it right you have to use water, ice.

I got 21 lbs of trim I can't do shit with. In hindsight, I wished I wouldn't have reported it to the State. It has to be tested before I can sell it, and it would cost more to test it, and sell it. Trim goes for about $20-$30 a lb., and it would cost me $900 to test 3 strains. So, now Im stuck. I gotta pay the State to come pick it up as "Medical Waste".

Take half out for edibles. Then throw some stems in to make up for the other 10 lbs, :bigjoint:

Skip the little washing machine, just get a nice set of bags and stir it manually at first. See if you like the results before spending $$ on the washing machine-which will probably burn out in a couple of cycles. Good luck!
I've had mine for a while now, nice to set it and go do some dabs and come back. Only about 150$ not bad.

If your not dry trimming it and then immediately putting it into a freezer just throw it away. Most people will blast it into wax or make medibles with it. Personally I think you should have it made into wax and then cook using the wax or just throw the shit away.
