Clean the bags/Buckets/Knifes/Trays with alcohol and the machine also with alcohol as Shawns explained or Hydrogen Peroxide
Thank you Frenchy , Will do as you guys suggest. Believe it or not, I can't get bottomless buckets anywhere here so I bought normal ones[food grade] and will try to remove the bottoms myself. Anybody else have to do this? Tips?

I bet you can't, who would want bottomless bucket? You should buy at Home Depot the food grade bucket. Use a flat saw with small teeth, cut the first one close to the bottom and the other 3 inches shorter than the preceding and so on.

Do you guys find that it's important to regulate how long and how vigorously the washing machine works the cannabis? Or do the bags take care of the sifting process regardless of how long it's washed? I've never been able to take the time to do different loads for different time periods with the same cannabis to know for sure. Thanks.

Ha Ha Ha I guess only folks like us would want one. I looked at several local shops that cater to 420 community but no luck ,in fact I got a few funny looks :) I have the buckets and will do as you suggest. I thought you would say this but not being mechanically inclined I wanted to ask before screwing up. As always ,merci beaucoup .

I was once told by a great hash maker to be as gentle as possible. The bags sift out a lot but if you beat up your trim it will make small peices of leaf that will appear upon inspection.

Ya, it's tough because too much washing may degrade the hash and not enough you lose trichs. I guess that's where the art of cannabis takes place.

A little too long, too much ice, too much trims, not enough water will change the quality of the finish product. The process is very simple that is why every step has to be perfect.
It is where experience makes a difference. That is what I can teach in a workshop but cannot show in a video

I don't use a machine, I do everything by hand but I do try to be as gentle as possible when mixing.

I recently ended up running some plushberry hash that really wasnt up to par and I believe it was from possibly too much ice but I wasn't quite sure why at first, so I refined it uisng the ISO method for the first time and it actually wasnt to bad. Hell of a process but a good quality oil non the less.

It is all the same machine or hand my friend. Every step have to be absolutely perfect
Yeah I sure learned a lesson with everything has to be perfect on my last batch, one of those things that will bring your ego down. Also having a machine would be nice cuz I do get quite the work out when I'm running my batches.

I have read through the whole thread and now I join the site because of this thread
Frenchy, you are a master at work, and have a lot of great knowledge
Some nice work from other guys in the thread as well
Today I pressed a little over 1gram of dry sifted moroccan kif, frenchy style with the water in the bottle
Smells and tastes excellent, bubbles under heat from a flame
Have a few pictures for you guys, excuse the quality they are just from my phone

The kif




Placed in some cellophane from cigarette pack for pressing


Now pressed I place in fridge for 10 seconds or so


And removed from the cellophane
