This concentrate is made by flash-freezing an entire, living marijuana plant, and then by using a chilled solvent (butane) in the extraction process. This concentrate isn’t full-burn, but since all the marijuana terpenes live in the trichomes, kief is by far the most flavorful concentrate.ĩ.) Live Resin. Then we collect the kief (trichomes) and compress it into a brick which we sell for $30 a gram. We make this one as well, and we do so by tumbling marijuana in a filter drum. Kief is sometimes referred to as “dry-sift” because that’s the way it’s made. It can be smoked in a number of ways, but since isolates are most commonly white, powdery substances that dissolve instantly in water, this concentrate shows up in infused beverages more often than not.Ĩ.) Kief, or Kief Brick. This concentrate is made by using chemicals to “isolate” the THC or CBD from marijuana plant matter. It can be dabbed or vaporized, but this concentrate is also used in many of the edibles on the market.ħ.) Isolate. Distilling the oil purifies the concentrate, and makes it more potent. However, solvents can also be used in some instances. This concentrate is made by refining cannabis oil, but for it to be considered a true distillate, a still needs to be used (yes, just like the ones they use in the Ozarks to make moonshine).

Frankly, it’s like marijuana crack (but without the addiction and associated murder rate).Ħ.) Distillate.

Crystalline is a purified resin (which I’ll tell you about in number nine) consisting of 99.99% pure THC. Quite plainly, this is the world’s strongest cannabis concentrate. This is another one of those consistency-only concentrates: crumble is nothing more than wax with a different, honeycomb-like consistency.ĥ.) Crystalline. You simply put it in your pipe and smoke it, and then forget about things for a while… all things. This is another product we make in-house, and we do so by taking premium marijuana flower, painting it with oil, and then battering it in kief. Caviar isn’t dabbable (did I just make up a word?) either, but it’s some of the best stuff on earth: a trifecta of potency, as we call it. This concentrate isn’t full-burn, so the best way to enjoy it is to sprinkle it on top of a bowl, or to mix some in with your flower when you roll a joint.ģ.) Caviar. Then we collect, compact, and freeze the hash, before weighing it out and selling it to you for $40 a gram.
#Bubble hash vs rosin series#
The cold water freezes the trichomes on the surface of the plant matter, and the agitation breaks them free-once this is complete, we drain the slurry and run it through a series of filters. We make this concentrate at The Greenery Hash Factory by submerging marijuana in ice water and agitating it. There’s no difference between “bubble hash” and “ice-water hash,” so the two terms are interchangeable.

Cannabis oil can be whipped and heated into a consistency reminiscent of cake “batter” or room temperature “butter,” and that’s where the names come from (stoners replaced the t’s with d’s because that’s what you do when you’ve got bud on the brain).Ģ.) Bubble Hash.

This is exactly why things are so confusing when it comes to marijuana concentrates-the terms “badder” or “budder” deal with the consistency of a concentrate, not the concentrate itself. As to the list itself, it’s important to remember that some concentrates can be dabbed, because they’re “full-burn” or “full-melt,” but some cannot (these work best as “bowl-toppers,” or concentrates you sprinkle on top of pot to kick things up a notch) I’ll make sure to tell you which ones are which. This week’s post is just gunna be a quick-and-dirty alphabetical listing of all the cannabis concentrates out there on the market, because one of the top-ten questions I hear as a budtender is “what’s the difference?” So, I wanted to write something short and simple you could use as a reference, if you needed to.
