a credit card or similar plastic object. Do
this very gently, over and back and over and
back and over and back. You may have to push
the skuff over and back a hundred times before
you can see the tiny resin glands gather on the
mirror below. All this is done with very little
pressure.
Once you have collected as much resin
glands as possible use the card to sweep them
off the mirror and onto another surface. Now
take the ‘used’ skuff and this time apply a bit
more pressure to it as you roll it back and
forth across the screen. With this little bit
of extra force applied you will be able to
knock through any resin glands that did not
fall through the first time, but you will also
push through some veg material such as branch
shavings and leaf particles. This second round
of pressing will result in a lower quality
grade of skuff.
You see skuff is skuff. From when you cure
your trim to the point where you sieve it
through, it is still skuff. Your objective is
to try and collect as much resin from the skuff
as possible. You will not end up with hash, but
you will end up with different grades of skuff
that can be used to make hash later.
You can smoke the different grades of skuff
there and then, but you may notice that it is
hard to do so. Since this powder is so fine it
will typically fall from a joint easily or pass
