Bubble Hash Consistency..NEED HELP!

Did 2 runs with dried trim and larf last night. The bubble came out looking really nice. Used 25, 73, 120 and a 220 work bag. Hand mixed using distilled water (chilled) and ice made with distilled water. Scooped my returns into separate piles on my 25 micron drying screen. Left it overnight for about 10 hours on this screen at about 68 degrees and low humidity. Went to sieve it today and there’s absolutely no way it would work. The consistency is like super sticky putty. So I put it in the freezers for a couple hours and returned to try again with the same result. Tried chopping it up with a razor, and again it would just stick to anything it touched. It’s almost impossible to chop into smaller pieces and even more impossible to sieve or microplane it. What do I need to do? Does it need to dry longer? The pucks look super shiny and dark on the outside than the inside. Any advice is greatly appreciated as I pulled about 8-10 grams of hash that I would love not to fuck up !

Try putting in into coffee or filters in the fridge for 3-5 days. The coffee filters act as a wick for the moisture. Plain cardboard works well too. Just make sure it stays in the fridge until it's dry enough to work with
Check on it after 2 days and see if it will start crumbling. Then keep breaking it apart a little each time you check on it.
Good luck friend!

I place my bubble in baking trays lined with those Teflon mats for a wax paper substitute. Then they go into a bakery warming cabinet with a thermostat switch to keep it at around 115 Fahrenheit. They stay in there anywhere from 2 days to nearly a week, mostly depending on how much I have packed in there, getting good airflow (cabinet has fan) and I will press and work the hash several times, that's how I determine when to pull them. When they come out, they go into a large cigar box (cedar) charged with boveda 58% packs. A nice cure works easily by hand but won't mold, for years and years and years.
