The Ice-O-Lator technique allows you to obtain high-quality hashish using cold water and ice to separate the trichomes from the plant material. It's a clean, solvent-free method that preserves all the aromas and cannabinoids. In this category, you'll find filter bags, buckets, mesh screens, and accessories for home extractions with professional results.

Alchimia presents the Pure Factory 20L Resin Extraction Bag, an essential tool for dry hash and cold extraction enthusiasts. Available in various filtering microns (25, 45, 90, 120 [...]
The Ice-O-Lator system is a hash extraction method that uses ice water and mechanical agitation to loosen the trichomes from cannabis flowers and leaves. These heavier trichomes are easily separated from the rest of the material and filtered through micron-sized bags. The result is a clean, aromatic, and potent hash, also known as bubble hash or water hash, without the use of solvents or chemicals.
Ice water extraction is a traditional technique that provides multiple benefits for those seeking purity and flavor in their resin concentrates:
The Ice-O-Lator system is perfect for growers who value quality over quantity and who desire a clean, additive-free, and nuanced extraction. It's ideal for both home-made hashish producers and those looking to explore new ways to use their harvest with a reliable, affordable, and respectful method. It's also highly valued by medicinal users or therapists who prefer natural, solvent-free concentrates.

What is the difference between traditional hash and Ice-O-Lator?
Ice-O-Lator is produced without heat or chemicals, which allows for a better preservation of the terpene profile. The result is a purer, more aromatic, and more potent hash than dry sifting or conventional pressing.
What micron rating do I need to get the best quality?
The most popular fraction is usually between 73 and 120 microns, although it's recommended to use multiple bags to filter different grades. The smallest (25-45 μ) collect very fine particles, while the largest (160-220 μ) remove plant matter.
Can you use a washing machine to make Ice-O-Lator?
Yes, there are special washers for resin extraction that automate the process and reduce physical effort. They are very useful for medium or large production runs, while maintaining the quality of the results.
