    I followed a tutorial for making this type of Press hash. Holy shit. It worked.

    You take kief from your grinder, Put it in cellophane.

    Then wrap the cellophane in wax paper.

    After that, you steam the shit out of it with a iron press, and place the iron over the little packet of kief.

    I got this as my end result. I smoked it , and well, im droolin haha:eek:

    Its a pliable-waxy consistency.

    So ..is this hash or whaa? What have I made?:smoke:

    You made pressed kief.

    which is probably less potent then if u had just smoked the kief in a bong without pressing it.

    Good to see it worked out well for you. I remember when I was younger I did the same process except I put it in my shoe and just walked around on it all day. The iron seems faster but I'd be afraid of vaping some of the cannabinoids away. I prefer to just smoke the kief and not lose any to the process but hash is much easier to handle and harder to lose. So I guess it just comes down to preference. :p

    Very, very untrue, please don't spread misinformation.

    When you use heat and pressure to turn kief into hash (pressed kief and hash are interchangable terms) you decarboxylyze non-psycoactive THCA into yummy THC.)


    :smoke:

    I'm smoking similar hash right now.

    ^^Thats what I though. I read up on it a bit before trying to press it. Several sources state that the pressing and heating action enables you to decarboxylyze THCA to THC.)

    Why does it change color though?

    good to know but how do u keep the iron at the right temp?

    op knew this, shoulda mentioned it in the orignal post? if u just crush it then its gonna be less potent (if only slightly) so its not completely untrue.

    can some1 post a link?

    Yet,..... What happens when you put a flame to the Kief? :cool:

    Its from a thread on Shroomery.org:

    "Pressed kief is hash. The pressing breaks the trichomes, releasing the oils, and with mild heat partially decarboxylates the THC. It usually turns brown or black if the kief is somewhat impure."

    My iron has different heat setting. I put it on low, and used primarily hot steam, leaving the actual base of the iron on the kief for only a short amount of time
