Hashish cigarette product and method of manufacture
A fully formed, freestanding, curvilinear geometric shaped, hashish cigarette product. A method of making the product consisting, substantially of hashish, the method comprising applying pressure to a collection of kief via a press for a period of time sufficient to form a pliable sheet of hashish having a thickness of 0.5 to 1 mm, cutting or trimming the pliable sheet into a substantially rectangular section, rolling the section of pliable sheet around an object having a curvilinear geometric shape at least one full rotation, and separating the rolled section of pliable sheet from the object, leaving only the fully formed, freestanding, curvilinear geometric shaped, hashish cigarette product.
1. A method of making a freestanding hashish cigarette product, comprising:
collecting material from a cannabis plant;
drying and curing the collected material to a moisture content not exceeding 15%;
mechanically separating resinous trichomes from the dried and cured collected material using a 125 to 165 micron mesh screen for a period of approximately 20 minutes, resulting in collection of kief;
applying pressure of 120 PSI to the collection of kief for a period of approximately 1 min using a temperature controlled plate press, resulting in a pliable sheet of hashish having a thickness of 0.5-1 mm;
rolling the pliable sheet of hashish around an object having a curvilinear geometric shape; and
removing the object, resulting in fully formed, freestanding, curvilinear geometric shaped, hashish cigarette.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the object having a curvilinear geometric shape is a metal die in the shape of a cylinder, with a diameter in a range of 5-7 mm and having a longitudinal axis in a range of 70-110 mm.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein applying pressure of 120 PSI to the collection of kief for a period of approximately 1 minute using a temperature controlled plate press comprises applying such pressure for the defined period using a temperature controlled plate press wherein the temperature is controlled to not exceed 130 degrees Fahrenheit.
