6 STAR HASH RATING SYSTEM
KEEP COLD!!!
Please Keep your Hash COLD!
At the Very least under Room Temp. Store it in a Cool Dark place.
You pay a lot of Money for Quality. Don't mess it up by over curing your hash. Our CHEESE
quality hash should have a golden color and a beachy Florida sand consistency if stored properly in a cool environment. Our Hash Diamonds should be White, Yellow , Tan or Even Pink/Purple. When quality hash has been stored at room temp or warmer, it can change consistency taking on the appearance of a darker less terpy end product. Stay Cold! Luckily in the Northeast we have eight months of winter and four months of poor sledding!
FUN FACT:
45f is actually PERFECT Temperature for extracting, storing & pressing Rosin!
Quality hash lacks evidence of green chlorophyll tinted extract, as well as dark brown, or black spots, All indicating contamination from flower material or another element.
CHEESE
Hash Companies ice water hash & dry sift with visible trichome heads that glisten like the best crystals or diamonds!
Smell
Quality solvent-less hash should have a strong scent that is consistent with the starting material (example: hash made from a strain like GMO should smell like GMO flower). Identifiable, pungent smells are indicative of high terpene content and produce strong flavors when smoked or vaporized.
Micron/LPI
Both ice water hash and dry sift will be labeled with a micron or LPI (lines per inch) designation, respectively. The number indicates the size of the holes in the screen, which correlates to the size of the trichome heads in the hash.
Unfortunately, there is no across-the-board ‘best’ micron/LPI when it comes to solventless hash; the level of melt within each micron/LPI is almost always strain dependent (i.e. different strains and growing conditions produce different size trichome heads). However, as a general rule of thumb, the highest likelihood of full melt solventless hash can be found in the 70μ-120μ micron range (120-200 LPI).
Strain
Certain strains are known for producing a superior hash from both a yield and melt perspective. For example, Gorilla Glue #4, Cookies, and TGA strains tend to produce a very greasy and melty solventless hash, whereas citrus dominant strains typically produce drier resin. Additionally, organically grown cannabis free of foliar sprays during flower will typically produce superior solventless hash than their synthetic counterparts.

Dry-Sift
Full Melt Dry Sift (5-6 stars)
The Unicorn of Hash . This Kick-Ass grade of hash contains just pure trichome heads and is considered to be ultimate collectors connoisseur-grade hash; it should be dabbed off of a quartz nail. The starting almost Florida beach sand consistency can be pressed into a dab-ready sheet for ease of portion control and handling.
All of our 5 and 6 star CHEESE
Hash' are perfect just the way they are and can be Dabbed/Smoked as is! We Dare you!
Half Melt Dry Sift (3-4 stars)
Half melt is slightly more contaminated and will not vaporize well off of a nail in dab form, although some people still elect to do so. Depending on the level of melt, We recommend cheesing half melt dry sift over bowls, twaxing the inside of a joint/blunt, or even rosining it in essence turning it into oil or full melt. (THIS IS NOT 6* HASH DONT BE FOOLED)
Kief (1-2 stars)
It’s similar to what you have been saving in your grinder & stealing from your bosses TrimBin for the past 3 months. Unfortunately Kief contains a mixture of trichome heads, stalks, and plant material (contaminate). It is considered to be the lowest grade of dry sift and will char (the opposite of melt) immediately upon being dabbed.
While that trimbin kief or grinder kief is the gravy on a flower joint for that extra oof, this grade of hash is simply not suitable for pressing into rosin.
Hashes that are only 1 or 2 stars are usually made up of less than 50% trichomes, with the other half consisting of organic contaminants. The abundance of plant matter will end up compromising your end results, so it’s best to avoid pressing with it, and to opt for something a little more refined instead!
Save it for the Joints or make some Edibles!
Bubble Hash
Full Melt Ice Water Hash (5-6 stars)
Full melt contains just trichome heads, is very high-grade high-desirable like a holographic pokemon card . This hash should also be dabbed off of a quartz nail if possible! We find it’s about the same to handle as dry sift.
Half Melt Ice Water Hash (3-4 stars)
Half melt is again slightly more contaminated and will not vaporize as well off of a nail in dab form. While some people will dab certain grades of half-melt ice water hash, we prefer to cheese it allover bowls, butter the inside of a joint/blunt, or sometimes even rosin it (in essence turning it into oil i.e. full melt).
Half melt ice water hash typically sells at a lower price point than full melt.
3-4 star hash is a lower grade Hash that only half melts and other half is residues and contaminate. Good for joints, bowls, vaping. (THIS IS NOT 6* HASH DONT BE FOOLED)
Cooking Grade Hash (1-2 stars)
Cooking grade hash contains the most contaminate (plant matter). It is called cooking grade because it is commonly used to make edibles. It will not melt, so we wouldn’t recommend dabbing or vaporizing cooking grade hash.
Cooking grade hash is highly contaminated with plant matter. Commonly used to make edibles — hence the name — cooking grade hash is also suitable for sprinkling over bowls or in joints. It consists of both low and high microns, and it doesn’t melt well, so it shouldn’t be used for dabbing.
Hash Edibles are some of the best tasting & strongest available on the Market! Our 1 Star Hash Rosin is better then some of our competitors 3-4 Star Rosin!
