I do love my hash and whilst a bit stoned the other day on some fabulous frozen static I was reminded of a post that was on here a few years ago where someone was saying that all hash is contaminated in some way and that to test this you basically pinch a tiny bit and chew it.
If it has grit in it when you chew - it’s contaminated. If it’s smooth it’s clean. They claimed this contamination was a relatively new phenomenon and that 5-10 years ago it didn’t happen.
Anyway there was a video post on a review site the other day where two American guys were reviewing hash and the discussion progressed to them talking about contamination.
One of them claimed that most of the hash in the USA, and I assume they mean dispo hash as well as black market, contains wood!! Wood! He said that an easy way to test is to put a small piece in pure alcohol and wait. If it dissolves to nothing it’s clean, however whatever material is left, if there is any, is definitely not good!
Do any Biggas have a routine for checking hash? I must admit, I don’t. I go for reliable sellers who only produce fine hash and go by the rule ‘good hash is expensive, bad hash is cheap’ however you occasionally stumble across some lovely commercial too.
Maybe it’s not so much of an issue now with a lot of quality statics, water and triple filtered hashes available in the uk, I was just curious to see if anyone tests their hash regularly and how they accomplish this. I don’t mean bubbles under flame or smell or texture , i just mean if you have a quick method to test purity. Damn that static made me ramble. 🤯
