I am going to take advantage of the blog feature here at Grass City. I am doing this for you GC. I love it here and I think that my fellow blades are some pretty cool stoners and stonerettes. You can always expect a few things at my blog like my opinion and experiences with different strains of cannabis. Another thing is comedy. I love getting stoned and laughing my ass off to something about Mary Jane. I love her with all my heart.

Dry Block Kief Tutorial

What's up my fellow Blades? I thought I would post up this little tutorial on how I press my loose kief into wafers aka 'Dry Block Kief'. This was taken from a thread I made but I thought my blog would make a better home for it. Thanks for stopping in again and enjoy this quick, simple and cheap way to press your loose kief.


What's good GC? I had a little extra time on my hands so I thought I'd make this simple tutorial on how to press your loose kief into thin, manageable wafers. If you're like me you probably love smoking kief and hash, but as we all know loose kief is not the most manageable material in the world. So in this tutorial I'll show you how to make a cheap and easy press capable of applying more pressure than the old warm wine bottle and most simple presses out there.

Here's your parts list:
1) C-clamp
2) 2 wooden blocks
3) Clear rolling papers or similar cellulose material
4) Of course, kief

I purchased the big c-clamp at my local hardware store for around $15.00, the clear papers came in an edition of High Times and the wooden blocks were left over from another project. So all in all you're not going to have to make a huge investment for this small project.

First place your kief in a clear paper/cellulose and fold into a small packet. Notice the lines on the clear paper that I use to help me fold the kief into a packet.

Place the packet in between the two wooden blocks and place in c-clamp. Tighten the c-clamp until it's nice and snug and leave overnight. In the end you should have something like this.

Yeah for sure man, the finished product is very pliable and durable. You can really apply a lot of pressure with that big fucking c clamp, I think a lot of homemade presses lack in pressure imo. Thanks for stopping in man.
