After the process is finished the screen can be patted down to shake
any powder that is stuck in the pours.
Flat Metal Screening:
This is done much like the flat silk screen method but before
the flat silk is used the bud will go through a metal grating process.
The metal grate is usually made from tough nylon or stainless steel
and is of equal proportions in pour size to the silk screen. By first
using the metal grate we can remove more matter from the bud than
the single silk screen would do. The bud matter that passes through the
metal screen can then be sieved through the silk screen by shaking the
screen back and forth over a glass surface. You can end up with 2
grades of sieved bud residue this way. The silk screening should
produce mostly trichomes.
Multiple Screening Method:
This is a refined version of the above two methods. Several
screens can be used in this method but the average is four of five. Each
screen running from start to finish should have a different micron
measurement starting from the largest and running down to the
smallest silk screen. The bud matter is sieved through the first screen
and then down onto the second screen. The process is repeated picking
up and sieving with each new screen until most of the matter has
passed through. You should end up with several screens that contain
bud matter running down to the finer trichomes on the last screen.
This is an excellent way to achieve the best results. You should end up
with several screens each with different qualities of cannabis residue.
