making "black" hash?

[bigwity]

some peeps get there sieved trichs and put bthem in special ovens that keep a constant body temp for 3 months untill it can be made into a loose lump and crumbed again, kida like you want your soil to be like, then they press it.

black border hash is made buy cureing the bud then smashing it up ove a fife pit in a wok like metal container they add water and bud smash the shit out of it till it goes tar like then form it and dry it out. its mentioned in mr nices film but i have the great book of hashish it explains it roughly, the method is guarded by the locals.

Sounds really nasty that does mate, doubt it would taste nice at all, just as bad as taking all the crap out of a bong and making that into a "hash" (paste?)

I've never seen red/gold seal as it was before my time, but i heard that what goes around now as squidgy black is the same as what gold seal was in the 80s?, seemed to have a weird sign on the bar but couldn't tell what is was as only got 2 oz but dont think it was an AK
If anyone knows for sure I'll be interested to hear i love a nice bit of hash but prefer a nice frosty bud

 

[bigwity]

it has two big swords crossing with a gold circle and some other shit, the stuff atm anyway. i know some peeps round here who make a shit version and spray gold patterns on it, lol

Hash of the best quality should be of a relatively light color (brownish)

you obviously didn't smoke any affie black from the early eighties.

 

[hazyfontazy]

making black hash is relatively easy ,,get a 150 micron sieve, available everywhere ,,i got mine from milas ,,shake some bud till u get a nice pile of trichs ,,load it into a cigarette packet wrapper ,wrap it carefully and take the dog for a walk ,,,u get hash ..

The Squidgy black now & Gold/Red seal are poles apart mate, nothing like each other quality wise. There is no comparison between Gold/red seal & Squidgy Black.

The cross Sword stamp on bars these days is from Afghanistan, quite a lot of it about these days.

It all depends on the Country of Origin, when the plant was harvested & how it was processed. Very good Hash is slightly darker on the outside than inside because it Oxidises with the Air & you end up with a 1-2mm crust on it.

the cross sword was around in the 80's ,smoked loads of it ,,gold seal and red seal were pretty shit ,,best was 00 and nulli secundis ,camel stamp was quite nice too ,these were all mediocre hashes though and didnt even come close to the stuff like temple ball and manali ,reall brain melting hash ,sadly finding these now isn't easy

some blacks were mixed with opium water and boy o boy did u know u had it

hand press it.

i like pressing my hash as i smoke it. Simple method is to lick the palm of your hand then dump say 1/4-1/2 a gram of trichomes into your palm.
A quick lick of you thumb and then start rolling the kif in your hand like you where trying to get glue off your fingers. The higher quality the skuff the easier and quicker it will press. But a few mins max of rolling it and you should have a fully worked piece of "black" hash

eh ?

Personally I don't class Squidgy Black as Hash, far to adulterated to be classed as quality

Proper Gold Seal & Red Seal was good Hash mate, The Zero Zero (Aka Sputnik) was lovely too, as was the Red & Gold Leb, the Turkish was gorgeous but always harder to source.

All I smoke these days is Hash from Malana (It's grown on a father & Son Farm & isn't Commercial) which is superior to Manali. The Opiated Hashes of years ago tended to be Hash like Nepalese temple Ball, where the used to use it as a binder but these days it's used to bulk the Hash out. Can't say I've seen any Opiated Hash for a while

I spent years in India & Nepal, learning many different ways to make Hash/Charas & Water Hash the Traditional way. I used to make Temple Balls with a farmer just outside Pokhara in Nepal, that gathered his Resin & because he didn't have a press, he'd put it in thick plastic & plunge it into boiling water which would heat it up. Then he'd remove it & twist the plastic till it was compressed.

He was one of only three people i ever saw use that technique,

Edit: The more you hand press a bit of Hash the Darker it will get, try it. Start off with a light brown Hash, keep pressing it & it'll get darker.

just my experience ,never really enjoyed red or gold seal ,at the end of the day it was just the packaging ,in the early 80's we had a massive choice and mostly went for the nepalese or thai weed we could get

 

[bigwity]

gotta agree hazy, i started smoking early 90's it was nice to start with then came the soap bar.

I'm in no way saying that Red or gold Seal was the Best, just that it was good quality.

Re: The Nepalese & Thai, well who would choose anything else but Nepalese/Northern Indian Hash to smoke full stop, for me it's the best around Kashmiri / Pakistan Gurdha is probably the Nicest Landrace hash i've ever had, nicest Colour, best Quality, all round superb Hash

Edit: I really miss Proper Thai, Hazy. You know what I mean

We have gold seal right now in my area that is sealed with a gold star. It is properly gooey at room temperature brownish charas not the gummy hard crap thats black all the way through.

My hash and extracts always turn out blond, never really get any black in them at all. I always suspected human skin, dirt etc played a large part in the blacking up of import but oxidization makes more sense.

That's exactly what happens. When hand pressing, every time you twist your thumb it rips the glands open & exposes them to air.

Has your Hash got Gold Wrapping & a pressed in seal, because if it hasn't got the Gold coloured clear wrap, it's not the same mate. Loads of symbols are pressed into Hash, some relate to the Packing of it whilst in shipment. That's why sometimes you see T & B stamped in, for top & bottom, though that tends to be low grade Moroccan these days.

Stamps are also used for re distribution purposes, though the makers still stamp using anything that they have to hand.

I'm having real trouble concentrating here, I got Diesel Power blasting into my ears

You know your hash mate
Yeah i didn't think it sounded right when i was told as all I've heard from other sources it was some amazing hash, Any idea what adulterates they would add? or where its from? Seem to do a top job mixing right as seems to taste the same as it did 6-7 years ago
Wish Proper hash was still available in my area, first time i tried squidgy it tasted like heaven after smoking soap bar for years And that shit was/is nasty
Anyone still able to get quality hash? if so any idea what region its from?


E2A forgot to write the reason i made that bold was because it sounds jst like squidgy but the lighter brown inside seems to sparkle in the light as i always thought it must be the crystals, but now thinking its could be part of the crap they add?

Ha ha, one thing I do know like the back of my hand is hash mate, pretty well known for it

These days who knows what they use, the usual suspects just like soap (Aka Formula in the trade) Wax, parrafin, loads of stuff. There's an Old Afghani technique where they heat the collected Trichomes, after they'd beat the shit out the plants to collect them & that made the Hash very dark, but it's not the same as Squidgy.

My Hash is from a farm in the mountains above Malana. I've smoked every type of Hash there is from Sativa Hash to modern Bubble Hash & everything in between. My favourite is Indian, it always will be, I've a love for India that runs deep, it just so happens that they have superb Hash too

The only time I'll smoke Moroccan these days is from another family farm in the RIf valley, they only produce a small amount ( small in the greater scheme of things). I consider myself very blessed to be able to get such nice Hash.

It shocks me that youngsters these days don't have a clue how Hash is made & think all Hash is soap bar.

alot of my friends have a contact for hash mostly from morrocco ,high grade ,always melts ,but quite pricey ,,my main contact also gets charrass an nepalese regular if he wants some ...

i much prefer toking on quality hash than weed ,,not iceolator though ,i tried some nepal icelator and thought it had wrecked it ,,wont be long before theres no traditionally made hash ,sad times ahead

I'm so glad you said that mate, because i feel the same. Iceolator Hash tends to wash out the taste. Traditional Hash is great because of the different subtle flavours that vary from region to region.

Very blessed indeed, some loverly hash in remote family farms in beautiful country's
I remember seeing an old video of them making hash using the tek you mentioned proper old school I'll see if i can dig it out I'm sure it was on a similar forum
Always love a bit of shoe-lace hash but oil's my main problem, Far too sticky which i find hard to enjoy smokin' ends up having the joint stuck to my fingers every toke
Dont know why I've never tried it but would adding dry sift sort this problem and create some oil hash? [photos would be good]
What do you guys do with your oil, if you make it?
Seen some crazy oil attachments for (roor?) bongs but never splashed out on one as only make oil once a year and it never last long,
Surly theres a better way,

Just out of interested how much does it goes for round your area?
I know alot of other sites don't like people posting about prices but seeing as this isn't like other sites with strict rules I'm sure it'll be alright
Soap goes for £220 a Bar(probably more now, haven't brought it in years)
And the only squidgy i can get only comes in Kgs at 2100,
Pretty steep for someone that only smokes it on occasion as I'm the opposite to you and prefer a nice frosty bud to a slab of hash
