Extraction Poll: Trimmings to hash - which method??

Dry ice gives you the most... But for overall purity and quality, nothing tops bubble hash! :head:
Got to love bubble hash. I have always made mine with a egg beater but I switched up my process and did it like this and you only need .. Bubble Bags, 1 5 gallon bucket, 2 bags crushed ice, water, and a stick large spoon or something to hand mix.
I line my bubble bags smallest bag on the outside '''23 micron'' then I place one layer of crushed ice then a layer of fresh trimmings that have been in freezer at least 2 hours and repeat layers until bags are full with a layer of ice on top. Then I take ice cold water and dump over until water reaches top of the ice. I let it stand for 5 minutes then hand mix with large plastic spoon for 10 min. I then let stand 5 min and repeat this 2-4 times, then let sit for 5 min. Then pull the work bag out and let drain ''don't squeeze water out'' that can allow plant matter to pass through. Once work bag is out I sift out each micron bag one at a time and stretch bag over a bowl to scrape off hash. After that you do what you want with it. Let it dry naturally or press it in a pressing screen if you dare. I say this because I tried it and my hash was like glue and all stuck to the screen and what a bitch to remove it then so I just let it air dry as it is then it crumbles to a powdery substance that's easy to smoke or roll in a dube.
Hope this helps you if you decide to try some bubble hash......Good luck

Thanks for all your responses, I really appreciate it:hug: :group:
Thing is, I'm gonna use also some bottom buds which are dirty from soil and this would probably get thru the bags, that's why I'm still most inclined to the quiso side.
The plan is to make at least three runs with the same solvent and adding just some more iso with every other run. The goal is producing something oily, so I guess also some chlorophyll will have to be dissolved, beside just the cannabinoids and terpenes.
So 30sec soak + 30 sec shake + 10 sec wait, then filter and reuse the solvent for two more runs. If I understand correctly, every other soak will produce more oily stuff. The first run product is usually like sand or clay, but very pure.
Also the evaporation will be probably done on easy heating, temps between 80 and 100°C to promote decarboxylation and "activate" the thc from thca.
That's the plan, but you never know how things will go:dance2:

So how did you make out bro?, you know if you keep everything in the freezer when you make QWISO it will limit the amount of chloro you extract from it.
I keep all jars, alcohol,trim,strainers etc it freezer at around -5f also when you strain it it will allow you to separate waxes by trapping them in the filter. i use that in canna butter to boost the cb count for pain etc. i never get green QWISO doing it this way, until the last wash, that also goes to the canna butter.
Peace and good Karma

Most people don't make very good dry ice hash cuz they shake for too long. Watch that if you choose dri ice. Also do few mins in one spot then move over to new spot.qwiso is easy but use 190 proof everclear. But needs to be vaped off asap.
Hey think different once u put wet hash on pressing screen lightly press (dish towl on both sides) then pop into freezer few mins and bam comes off screen. Then crumble on cardboard or let dry in chunks for couple hours then microplane.
Im going to give this qwiso a try with the popcorb buds and trimmings. Assuming karma allows me a harvest that is.
With regards to, Isopropyl Alcohol, I can see 99% on amazon for ten quid, is this ok to use or does it need to be 91%?
