IceMaster Bags are really cool…(pun intended)

The Baked Duchess, Stoner Girl and Mad Hasher would like you to know that we now make our IceMaster bags, formerly Ice-o-lator bags, in Vancouver BC from North American outerwear. Stitched at a local Vancouver raingear and outerwear manufacturer they are well made, durable and dependable. We use top quality silkscreen in 8 different  micron sizes. The IceMaster system is a simple ice and water method of extracting plant essences. The use of multiple screens guarantees a very pure end product.
We also make two sizes of the work bag- the Pyramid Bag-  if you choose to use our mini washer BubbleMaster  formerly Bubbleator or your own washing machine. These Pyramid bags hold 300 grams and 750 grams of frozen material. If your machine has an agitator it may be better to use several small bags rather than the large one. If it does not have an agitator the large bag is the way to go.

You may put your material in a separate ice bucket and agitate it in the ice before pouring into the bag bucket- this will save on tangles and tears and tears.

Here’s what we do in our house;

Tips for Using the IceMaster system.

The IceMaster is the simplest and most efficient extraction method for the collection of resins, glands and pollen from plant material. We stock 220, 165mc icemaster cleaner bags . The use of very precise screen size ensures the collection of different sized particles. We offer the icemaster screen sizes of 120,90,70, 45, 38 and 25 micron bags as various plants have different sized resin glands and require different sized micron screens. Freezing the material for 2 hours prior to extraction greatly improves the process. The cold water further hardens the frozen resin glands and the movement of the water and ice causes the resin glands to drop off their brittle stalks and sink into the water.

1:  The IceMaster bags go into the bucket, in the order of lowest micron first to the highest, turn the edges of the bag(s) over the rim of the bucket.

2. Fill the bucket 1⁄2 full with COLD water and add about 1kg (2 lbs) of ice cubes or chunks. Ensure that not all the ice has melted, if it has, add more ice so that you have chunks of ice floating in the bucket.

3: add the frozen material into the bucket and agitate for 15 minutes, stop for 5 minutes to let product settle and repeat 2 more times. Let sit for 10 minutes and now it is time to drain.

4: Carefully lift the bags out of the bucket, ensure to rinse the inside and outside as you go. Do this by gently plunging the bags up and down in the water, collecting all the resin glands in the bottom of the bags. then drain all the water out by firmly but gently squeezing the product.  Using kitchen paper or a clean cotton kitchen towel, fold it around the bottom of the bag and gently press to remove excess water. Pressing too hard will result in the clogging of the silk screen.

5: Drying:  Transfer the wet resin glands into a stainless steel kitchen sieve and push the wet matter through the sieve with the back of a spoon or an old CD onto a piece of cardboard.  The fine texture of the resulting powder dries much faster and more evenly than lumps. Allow at least 48+ hours for drying or when you seal it it will mould.

* If you notice that the screens are clogged, clean them by gently dabbing them (on the screen only) between two soft cloths dipped in Isopropanol (96%) Alcohol.
