A: The appropriate micron size bubble bags depend on your desired final product and the level of purity you’re looking for. Lower micron bags (25-73 microns) capture the highest quality and purest material, while higher micron bags (90-220 microns) capture more material in the first bags.
A: The Maker™ hash washer comes standard with an all-in-one system with automatic washing, custom cycles, and a water transfer pump for easy operation. Complete multiple washes in one day while maintaining ultra-cool temperatures with the insulation sleeve. The no-shear impeller ensures an effective yet gentle vortex for easy trichome separation. Triminator’s hash making equipment also features an integrated tilt system and quick clamp sanitary fittings for easy cleaning in order to maintain optimal performance and purity in the products.
Q: Can I reuse bubble bags for multiple ice water hash extractions?
A: Yes, you can reuse bubble bags for multiple extractions. Similar to your hash making equipment, after each use, clean the bags thoroughly to remove any plant material or residue. Proper cleaning and maintenance will prolong the life of your bubble bags and ensure that subsequent extractions yield high-quality hash.
Q: What capacity can the hash washer hold?
A: The Maker™ XL can hold up to 60 gallons, and the Maker™ Standard can hold up to 20 gallons.
Q: What is ice hash and how is it made?
A: Ice water hash, also known as bubble hash, is a solventless concentrate made by agitating flower material in ice water. The process involves mixing flower, ice, and water, then filtering the mixture through various screens to separate the trichomes from the plant material. A hash washer helps commercial producers maintain product consistency and keep up with market demand.
Q: How does a commercial hash washer work?
A: A commercial hash washer consists of a washing chamber, an agitation system, and a filtration mechanism. Material is placed in the top washing chamber with ice and water. The agitation system creates a gentle vortex to stir the mixture, allowing the trichomes to detach from the plant material. The mixture is then passed through various micron screens to collect the ice water hash for drying. The Maker™ hash washer automates and streamlines the process to increase production capacity and yields.
Q: How does the hash washer help with commercial solventless rosin production?
A: The Maker™ collects pure bubble hash on a commercial scale. With minimal to no trace of plant material in the hash, you can ensure you’re delivering the purest full-melt, and most potent solventless products using a rosin press like the TRP Stack.
Q: How can I improve the quality of my ice water hash?
A: To improve the quality of your ice water hash, consider the following tips:
- Use high-quality, properly cured material.
- Maintain precise control over water and ice temperatures during extraction.
- Agitate gently to avoid breaking plant material and contaminating the hash.
- Use multiple bubble bags for better separation and to isolate different grades of hash.
- Dry the extracted hash gently and slowly to preserve its terpene profile and potency
