The Original Resinator OG uses revolutionary patented liquid CO2 technology to flash freeze its chamber for dry or live’ bladeless trimming (never tumble trimmed), dry or live’ kief sifting, and ice water hash washing – all in one unit. It’s our smallest machine and is capable of
Cryo-Trim® with CO2 - Trimming & Separating In 1 Process
The OG Cryo-Trim Base model kit includes everything you need to start trimming immediately:
- 1/4″ mesh trim screen
- thermometer
- stopwatch
- CO2 hose with fittings
- food grade leaf collection tool and brush
Cryo-Trim Throughput: 144 dry lb\day 432 wet lb\day
This Multi functional, blade-less tumble trimmer is ideal for commercial growers who want to trim with maximum efficiency and minimum waste. Flash freeze assisted tumble leaf extraction does 85% of your trimming. The high quality nylon mesh screen cradles the flowers as they tumble, and separates the sugar leaf from the dried flowers. Leaving only touch up (crows feet) left, and trichomes and flowers preserved. Trims up 40+ pounds per hour, manicuring 5-6 pound loads per 5-7 minute cycle!
Easily collect trim material after it has fractured and fallen through our high quality 1/4” & 1/2” mesh screens. Additional separation applications may include de-seeding, removing big leaves, recapturing dry-ice, isolating small flowers and other similar uses. Our unique design allows for easy loading and unloading of your harvested flowers and processed material.
- Microinjections of liquid CO2 brittle exterior leaves allowing them to quickly fracture and fall from the flowers. By momentarily flash freezing the biomass, the process results in clean manicured buds in an incredibly short time.
- When DRY trimming with CO2, there is no need to change your standard drying and curing operating procedures. The natural dry process allows the water molecules within the flower to cure organically, so your flowers will be as you are accustomed to.
- Lyophilization, aka Freeze Drying or Wet Curing is required when doing a WET trim with CO2. It’s only when doing a wet trim with CO2 that we have displaced the oxygen in our chamber and lowered the temperature below the freeze rate of 32°F which results in the cellular wall the plant rupturing. This means that the biomass must be preserved before it has a chance to oxidize and discolor. Deep freezer storage and sublimation via freeze drying represents a sea change in the way flower is preserved, processed, packaged and consumed.
- The Original Resinator Cryo-Trim® methodology employs a patented protocol using liquid carbon dioxide that provides an exceptional manicure of the outer leaves resulting in a near perfect product.
- The entire process has smaller footprints and better performance metrics than the other machine options capable of similar workflow throughput.
Cryo-Sieve® with CO2 - Kief Collection
The OG Cryo-Sieve Base model kit includes everything you need to get started:
- Durable food grade 200 Micron screen
- 3 pack food grade agitation balls
- thermometer
- stopwatch
- CO2 hose with fittings
- kief scraper and brush
Cryo-Sieve Throughput: 144 dry lb\day 432 wet lb\day
Using Co2 with The Original Resinator on DRY/CURED material has no adverse effect. Co2 is hydrophobic meaning it repels water. Co2 also displaces oxygen. These factors play a role when processing naturally cured biomass. Once removed from the Resinator the biomass will normalize within minutes. It will inherently take on the humidity from the localized environment so we should be mindful to maintain ideal operating temperatures and relative humidity levels.
We recommend that you start with a 150 to 200 micron bag (depending on strains and needs) and gradually reduce the screen size according to the gland concentration you want. Available screen sizes range from 25μm to 400μm (and even 600μm). As always, there are different types and sizes of trichomes. The morphology of these glands mainly depend on plant genetics, so we can find high quality glands of up to 150μm, and ranging as high as 500μm, and others measuring the opposite end of the spectrum even less than 50-25μm. (Even lower when using color remediation or charcoal filters with things like ethanol extraction for short path distillation.)
To obtain a clean and professional extraction, we should try to recover those glands measuring between 75μm and 100μm (but up to 125μm), which normally yield the best quality. If the screen sizes are smaller than the collected glands, than the dry sift extraction will also be smaller (the used screen size mainly depends on user preferences).
It’s only the use of liquid Co2 which allows us to work with the plant biomass in its Live’ WET/UNCURED state. This is extremely helpful for a myriad of applications. Please be mindful that when working with fresh frozen or Live’ applications it is vital to “maintain the cold chain”. Once the plant has been frozen and dropped below the freeze rate of 32°F the cellular wall of the plant ruptures. This leads to oxidation and discoloration if biomass was left unattended or allowed to thaw above that same 32°F temperature point. When working with Live’ material we can use a deep freezer to suspend the biomass in a frozen state.
Not only does a deep freezer solve a problem where a bottleneck occurs when dealing with freeze dryer capacity, but it acts as a staging area as well. This allows for complete harvest of a crop while awaiting availability of technicians, freeze dryers or extraction equipment prior to processing. When properly stored under a deep freeze the flower will remain suspended “frozen in time” until we are ready to process, for up to a year if stored correctly. If going from a fresh frozen state to a hydrocarbon extraction, being that there is no adverse reaction with water, the biomass can be processed directly out of the deep freezer into a closed loop system for immediate extraction. When going from a fresh frozen state to a solventless application we must use a freeze dryer and the lyophilization process where we sublimate the water as opposed to traditional means of drying where evaporation is employed.
H2O Extraction (Ice-Water) - Bubble While You Tumble
The OG Ice Water Wash base model kit includes everything you need (except ice water) to get started:
- Durable food grade 200 micron drum screen
- thermometer

Ice Water Washing Throughput: 48 dry lb\day 144 wet lb\day
A clean, rich concentrate has so many fantastic benefits. It’s almost impossible to explain them all in words! And words are a problem when you’re talking about the cleanest type of naturally-made extractions, because there are so many different phrases used to describe the same thing.
People can’t agree on whether to call it bubble, ice-resin, ice-water resin, full melt, water-extracted resin, ice resin, cold water extraction resin, or whatever comes to mind.
Pure water extracted resin has all of the benefits of a concentrate and it doesn’t contain solvents or other chemicals that you may find in butane, isopropyl and other forms of solvent-made concentrates.
Bubble Hash is resin made by placing dried flowers and plant clippings in iced water and “washing” the material to gather high potency resin glands for use as a concentrate.
When you isolate resin glands from other material plants produce, you get the purest dose of high quality resin that can be derived without using solvent-assisted extraction. When you use iced water to make bubble hash, you’re using temperature, stirring, and wet sifting to isolate the resin glands. There’s no butane, C02, or alcohol solvents to worry about…and no explosions either. Most people who’ve heard of water-made ice-resin are familiar with resin bags and bubble. Long ago a bubble-making methodology was popularized involving micron bags that have different micron sizes of screens. The bubble production process involves putting plant material in a “work bag” along with plenty of ice, then stirring and settling the mixture for a period of time.
After that, you’re gently squeezing the mixture through a screen built into the working bag so a slurry of ice water and resin glands travel through the screen and into a stacked set of other bags that have different sized, progressively smaller screens. After you’ve squeezed all the water and resin glands from the working bag, you discard the plant material in it, although some resin makers will rewash or rescreen that material to get as much out of it as they can. Then you work through each remaining bag or screen size, squeezing, or in our case tumbling, and the water-resin slurries out so it goes into the bags from out of our Resinator Chamber.
Both of these bundles include tons of items to help to go from start to finish with all the accessories needed inbetween.
