There are three different types of trichomes:
Bulbous: Undetectable by the human eye and smaller than the thickness of human hair.
Capitate Sessile: Longer stalks than bulbous trichomes.
Capitate Stalked: Most common trichomes found and contain a basal cell stalk and gland head.
You will need the following items:
- Large sheet
- Parchment paper
- Ounce of cannabis
- Dry ice chunks
- (1) scraper, we used a credit card
- (1) 120 micron or 90 micron bubble bag
Recipe for Dry Sift Kief
Add cannabis flower into bubble bag
Lay parchment paper on flat surface or inside 5 gallon bucket
Add dry ice and marijuana inside the bubble bag and shake, shake shake! Shake for up to 3 to 5 mins. You can keep shaking for longer but I am satisfied with the yield after 5m. The more you shake the more you separate trichomes from buds and leaves from the plant material.
Next, use the card to scrape up the kief and put it into a mason jar.
