The art of crafting hash through mechanical separation and other traditional methods has been passed down through generations. In the modern cannabis landscape, hash remains a symbol of ancient craftsmanship while still evolving alongside new technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wm-article-table-of-contents-header\" id=\"types-of-hash\">\n\tTypes of hash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hash, like many other cannabis products, comes in various qualities and types.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dry sift:<\/strong> An ancient form of making hash, <a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/products-and-how-to-consume\/dry-sift-hash\">dry sift<\/a> is made by mechanically separating trichomes by sifting cannabis plants through different screens.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bubble\/Ice water hash:<\/strong> Bubble hash is created <a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/dictionary\/ice-hash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">using water and ice to separate the trichomes<\/a> from the plant material.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rosin:<\/strong> A sticky cannabis concentrate made by applying heat and pressure to plant material, <a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/dictionary\/how-to-make-rosin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rosin can be made with flower<\/a> to produce flower rosin or from hash to produce hash rosin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Charas:<\/strong> The oldest form of hash making, <a href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/products-and-how-to-consume\/charas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charas is made by rubbing fresh cannabis buds<\/a> vigorously back and forth between your palms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> There's an ongoing discussion within the hash community about whether concentrates made with chemical solvents, like butane, can be considered true hash. One prominent voice in this debate is the late cannabis legend Frenchy Cannoli, who believed that hash can only be made through mechanical separation. Solvent-based concentrates may be categorized differently within the broader world of cannabis concentrates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/search?filter%5BboundingRadius%5D=50mi&amp;filter%5Bmatch%5D=ice%20water%20hash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Find ice water hash<\/em><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/search?filter%5BboundingRadius%5D=50mi&amp;filter%5Bmatch%5D=rosin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Find rosin<\/em><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wm-article-table-of-contents-header\" id=\"how-to-test-the-quality-of-your-hash\">\n\tHow to test the quality of your hash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding the quality of hash is essential for both novice and experienced consumers. High-quality hash can significantly enhance your experience, and there are four simple methods to determine if your hash is top-notch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Conduct a visual inspection<\/strong> by examining the hash closely. High-quality hash should be free of particulates and not green in color. Instead, it should exhibit a rich hue indicative of its cultivar.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Good hash tends to grease<\/strong>, which is a positive sign. Perform the lighter test by holding a flame to the hash. Low-quality hash will burn quickly due to lower oil content, whereas pure hash will bubble and melt, demonstrating its richness in oils.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Try the hand press technique<\/strong>. By pressing a small piece of hash between your hands \u2014 or while using gloves \u2014 you can gauge its quality based on how easily it gets pressed. High-quality hash will respond to the heat of your hands, releasing trichome oils that indicate its purity.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dab the hash and observe the residue<\/strong> left on the nail, which can help you assess its purity. Ideally, the dab temperature should be between 480 - 550\u00b0F. Minimal residue after dabbing signifies a high-quality, full melt hash.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>These methods not only help identify superior hash but can also enhance your overall experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wm-article-table-of-contents-header\" id=\"how-to-preserve-and-de-thaw-hash\">\n\tHow to preserve and de-thaw hash<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Proper storage of solventless concentrates is essential for maintaining their quality and potency. The best practice for full melt ice water hash is to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This preserves its delicate consistency and terpene profile, given that full melt hash is highly temperature-sensitive and least shelf-stable. For long-term storage, freezing is ideal if you do not plan to consume it soon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The refrigerator is also optimal for rosin and cured hash to ensure freshness and flavor retention. This method allows for quick accessibility without the wait time associated with freezer storage. Treat rosin and cured hash products like the full melt ice water hash noted above for long-term storage. The general rule is to keep what you're using today and tomorrow in the fridge and the rest in the freezer.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-image \">\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\" data-modal-open=\"lightbox_6036\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?w=2560&ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1025&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1366&ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?w=1920&ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 476px, (min-width: 1218px) 772px, 100vw\" alt=\"Jars of various hash products on table.\" title=\"Click to see a larger version of the image\">\n\t\t\t<\/a><cite>Photo by: Gina Coleman\/Weedmaps<\/cite><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Hash is best kept in an airtight container and in the fridge or freezer to enhance its freshness and longevity.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\t\t\t<div id=\"lightbox_6036\" data-modal data-modal-hide-heading data-modal-manual-close hidden>\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Image lightbox<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?w=2560&ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1025&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1366&ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hashuterie_17-scaled.jpg?w=1920&ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"100vw\" alt=\"Jars of various hash products on table.\">\n\t\t\t\t<button role=\"button\" class=\"a11y-modal__close-btn\" data-modal-close-btn>\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"currentColor\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M13.414 12l4.293 4.293a1 1 0 01-1.414 1.414L12 13.414l-4.293 4.293a1 1 0 11-1.414-1.414L10.586 12 6.293 7.707a1 1 0 011.414-1.414L12 10.586l4.293-4.293a1 1 0 011.414 1.414L13.414 12z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Before using any concentrate,&nbsp;let your&nbsp;hash jars warm up to room temperature to prevent water condensation, which can compromise&nbsp;hash&nbsp;quality and lead to mold growth or unwanted moisture absorption.

When vaporized, you'll enjoy a clean and pure experience that emphasizes the hash's unique flavors and effects.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dry sift\/Moroccan hash:<\/strong> While Moroccan hash can be dabbed, the experience may not be as refined as with full melt hash or rosin. However, it offers a different profile of flavors and effects, making it a suitable option to roll together with flower or in a spliff. The combination can create a harmonious blend of cannabis experiences.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several methods to smoke hash, each with unique characteristics and benefits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/weedmaps.com\/search?filter%5BboundingRadius%5D=50mi&amp;filter%5Bmatch%5D=full%20melt%20hash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Find full melt hash<\/em><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-smoke-hash-in-a-joint-spliff-or-blunt\">How to smoke hash in a joint, spliff, or blunt<\/h3>\n\n\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-image \">\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\" data-modal-open=\"lightbox_6030\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?w=2560&ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?w=1920&ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 476px, (min-width: 1218px) 772px, 100vw\" alt=\"Open joint with flower and hash\" title=\"Click to see a larger version of the image\">\n\t\t\t<\/a><cite>Photo by: Gina Coleman\/Weedmaps<\/cite><\/figure>\t\t\t<div id=\"lightbox_6030\" data-modal data-modal-hide-heading data-modal-manual-close hidden>\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Image lightbox<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?w=2560&ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/181002_Learn_HashJoint_11-1-scaled.jpg?w=1920&ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"100vw\" alt=\"Open joint with flower and hash\">\n\t\t\t\t<button role=\"button\" class=\"a11y-modal__close-btn\" data-modal-close-btn>\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"currentColor\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M13.414 12l4.293 4.293a1 1 0 01-1.414 1.414L12 13.414l-4.293 4.293a1 1 0 11-1.414-1.414L10.586 12 6.293 7.707a1 1 0 011.414-1.414L12 10.586l4.293-4.293a1 1 0 011.414 1.414L13.414 12z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p>One of the interesting things about hash is that it sometimes doesn't burn that well.

If it's closer to full melt, you will need more herb due to the higher oil content. If it's hash with less oil and more plant matter, such as Moroccan hash, you'll require less herb for the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"

For example, for the Puffco, you can start the temperature at the lowest blue setting; for a regular quartz banger, you can try 480\u00b0F for hash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-smoke-hash-hot-knives-method\">How to smoke hash: Hot knives method<\/h3>\n\n\n\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-image \">\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?ssl=1\" data-modal-open=\"lightbox_5397\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?w=2560&ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?w=1920&ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 476px, (min-width: 1218px) 772px, 100vw\" alt=\"Hot knife method\" title=\"Click to see a larger version of the image\">\n\t\t\t<\/a><cite>Photo by: Gina Coleman\/Weedmaps<\/cite><\/figure>\t\t\t<div id=\"lightbox_5397\" data-modal data-modal-hide-heading data-modal-manual-close hidden>\n\t\t\t\t<h2>Image lightbox<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?fit=640%2C427&ssl=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?w=2560&ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?resize=1080%2C720&ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?w=1280&ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weedmaps.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/710_Hot-Knife-scaled.jpg?w=1920&ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"100vw\" alt=\"Hot knife method\">\n\t\t\t\t<button role=\"button\" class=\"a11y-modal__close-btn\" data-modal-close-btn>\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"currentColor\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M13.414 12l4.293 4.293a1 1 0 01-1.414 1.414L12 13.414l-4.293 4.293a1 1 0 11-1.414-1.414L10.586 12 6.293 7.707a1 1 0 011.414-1.414L12 10.586l4.293-4.293a1 1 0 011.414 1.414L13.414 12z\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The hot-knife method, though more uncommon, is a popular way to consume hash in a pinch without needing a dab rig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-materials-3\">Materials<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Two metal knives, such as butter knives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stove or open flame<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plastic water bottle that's been cut in half<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-instructions-3\">Instructions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start by cutting a plastic water bottle in half.
