damn selecta mad props you should make a howto thread on how you make this beautiful wax
Looks alot like bubble... whats the process?
Bubble man
perhaps cannabis essence would be an appropriate name, but it's your baby you get to name her...
just call it trichomes haha cuz that is what it is...
just piles of ooey gooey oozing trichs...
my mouth is literally watering...
Looking at the fact that I can see tricome heads and stalks i would have to say this is not wax. Good bubble more likely
Once again... "Solvent-less Wax" is Essential Extracts term for its highest grade of water hash... We dont like the term "bubble" hash.. sorry.. no disrespect. Its like Sam the Skunkman calling his product "Sam's Dry Sieve".. or for another example, BHO makers often times call the same process (changing a small variable at times) different names, like Budder, Shatter, Wax, Earwax, Errl, etc... Thus, my product is differentiated by calling it "Solvent-less Wax".. We believe our process and product is superior to most of what we see on the market as "Bubble Hash" therefore, we labeled it accordingly. Marketing, yes. But we aint lying... We are not using water as a solvent, we are using it to mechanically separate trichome heads form stalks, therefore, "solvent-less". It has a very waxey consistency, because we are able to retain oils and terpenoids better than most processes, therefore "wax"... Creating the "Solvent-less Wax".. We all know nobody is "creating" anything "new" these days... I have just studied throughout the world, and come up with a combination of skill sets and techniques to create "my" process, but I dont call it my process, rather a process I have learned form various hash masters and come up with a few of my own little tricks here and there to form the process i use today....
Bring on the arguments! haha... i know they're coming. Also, everytime i post on here, i get a bunch of rude remarks and peeps telling me my shit aint real, or it aint water hash, or it aint "wax".. etc, so why would i want to just give u my process? Seems kinda silly to me dont u think? I spread the knowledge i have for the passion of hash making throughout the globe without holding shit back, but sometimes, it feels as tho people are not appreciative of my time which is so little these days, so I share where i feel people deserve to know... A lot of you members are on my groups now and u learn daily, im sure, but for those, who have stayed here and keep hating, why should i share my process wit u?
"I spread the knowledge i have for the passion of hash making throughout the globe without holding shit back,"
I have never dissed you or your product. Don't let a few oddballs ruin it for everyone. This is a hash site after all. Peace GS
Sorry, no disrespect. 90 percent of ya have been extremely chill and inviting, thus, I come back. Also, sorry for my negativity, guess it was a long day.. I've had some hash in my system now... And some reggae tunes... Irie now.
[We are not using water as a solvent, we are using it to mechanically separate trichome heads form stalks].
So are you using bubble bags, or have you developed your own technique that is different from a bubble bag?
Or, are you just very very good at using bubble bags to make your product?
Don't mean to make you reveal any chef's secrets... just curious what mechanical separation method you use.
Looks Like decent bubble.. ( i called it that.. way before my company had any popularity and really only called it that.. cause the stuff i was making was Bubbling and boiling like mad.. and boilhash just didnt sound as good.
Either way i guess people will always call it what they like.. and i definitly understand your reasons for marketing..
Its great to see you posting your pics and knowledge... its always nice to share tips and tricks we've learned over the years..
I know i've learned a few here and there..
im sure it bubbles in the bowl nicely.. or.. solventlessly wax's in the bowl? lol
Bubble man

Excellent pics! I'm assuming you don't use a machine for this like I just recently started doing. Using my 2 minute hand-run method, I don't even pull ANYTHING like this, the best I got looked like brown sugar. Unfortunately though I don't have near the experience you do, been stuck in the 707 since my inception, best I have to go off of is Rize's how to video, which really just made me want a Bubblenow (which I have now yay), and tips or tricks of folks who have only ever made inferior product (basically I've learned what NOT to do, it's a huge list).
Anyways, I am in AWE! No offense to Matt Rize, but I thought his stuff looked good, I have something even above that to aspire to. By the way Matt, I'm getting close to ice wax like yours ;-)
Little ditty -- Water acts as a solvent because it is polar, THC is secreted as a glandular stalked trichome that is covered in a non-polar wax; because of this wax, in this instance water is not acting as a solvent.
Thinking of it this way, it's easier for one to understand why they chose the term "Solvent-less"
No, as Nikka has clearly stated in these forums, it was a marketing decision to put a new name on thier water extracted hash. Marketing... sell it better.... thats why 'solvent-less'.
YBG
Give thanks for the praise. a machine was used for these... and the name was not given solely for marketing purposes.... But it definitely plays a role in distinguishing our product from others.. Bless
YBG, I'm actually in school studying business and marketing, so I can tell you that marketing is not just to "sell it better", but rather to fill a need that exists, which I'd say Nikka definitely does with this stuff.
Nikka, I wish to thank you for your humility and services to med patients, you are a great example of the fact that one can do anything they put their mind to!
Also, most people I talk to don't seem to think you can pull something like this using a machine, I am quite elated to learn that, in fact, it is possible.
I have to disagree with you on that Matt, my hash is chopped, dried to perfection/cured, and when I puff it on my screen it still bubbles and melts....hence why I prefer calling it full melt bubble hash/full melt clear dome when the name ensues. :D but yes wet hash can bubble and melt as well....but usually people can tell the difference....at least I can, from my experience when there is still moisture in the product, the domes will be cloudy looking from the water vapor.
This is true, I know this fellow who claims a "24-hour guaranteed 'drying' method" I don't have the heart to tell him he's just pressing water into his product creating a kind of fishy/hashy smelling emulsion.Quote:

The bubbles themselves are much finer and less pronounced when it's dry, but they are there none-the-less, especially when pressed. However, given this fact, I still don't call it "bubble hash" like most in SR everyone seems to. Also I do not like the term "Full melt clear dome" as most ice water extracted hash leaves some kind of residue (even it's if it's a minute amount of clean white ash) where as when I used to make BHO, it really did fully melt clear dome... to nothing!
I digress, "clear dome"? If dried properly, yes. "full melt" Not likely, no offense, but I've even seem videos of Matt Rize's dabs that leave some residue, less than most but still. "Bubble hash"? If there's water in it yes, if not it's less so, but given that, I have still had a half-gram bowl of Sour D. wax that bubbled for 45 minutes before it finally stopped and smoked for another 45(granted, 3 of us smoking it, all of us using the "vape hit technique" A.K.A. NEVER letting the flame touch whatever is loaded in the bowl)
Can't we just call it the bomb-diggity? Who really cares what how it bubbles? If it smokes and gets you high it's good right?
I thought I had fucked up, because the bubble was so dry. It lost 1/3 of its weight after pressing.
Well, it was still the melty-melt.
THC is an oil, or terpenoid, not an alkaloid as some suggest. So its not water bubbling. Its the bubble hash.It can appear dry, but thats like the trichomes coating or something
