There is nothing more satisfying than seeing your patience paid off. Your collection of kief is finally ready to be put to use, but what's the best way to use your kief? Here are 6 ideas to try out.

Add Kief to Your Bowl

The most obvious way to use your kief is the most popular for a reason: it's quick and easy. When smoking kief out of your bowl, you don't want to load a pure bowl of kief. While smoking a bowl of pure kief sounds fun, it burns too quickly and can be too intense for some. Instead, you should use kief to spice up your bowl of flower.

Roll a Joint With Kief

If you enjoy a nice joint or blunt over cannabis from a glass piece, you’ll be happy to know that you can sprinkle some kief in your joint to make it that much more potent.

Cook With Kief

If you love edibles but aren't as huge of a fan of how much the flavor of the cannabis influences the flavor or your food, then you'll love this. Cooking with kief gives your edibles a much more toned down flavor. But make sure you account for the potency. Typically, your kief is going to be around 50-80% THC depending on the quality. To properly dose your edibles use a cannabis cooking calculator like the one from THCoverdose.com.

Put Kief in Your Coffee

Do you need a cup of piping hot coffee before you can get your day started? Why not throw a little bit of kief in it! Thanks to the coffee’s heat, the THC in the kief will activate allowing you to fully enjoying cannabinoids while sipping your Mocha Latte. You don’t need much kief in your coffee to experience a good high that will last long into the afternoon.

Make Hash with Your Kief

Want to trade a simple concentrate for a more complex one that is a little bit more versatile? Then transform your kief into hash. Hash is nothing more then trichomes that have been compacted into a denser material for easier use. To make hash out of kief, the easiest way would be to pick up a kief press. Using a press, you get a kief "puck" with the same texture of hash, but it's not quite hash yet. To complete the transformation, wrap the puck in parchment paper, then in a wet paper towel, and finally foil. Next, bake it in your oven at around 250F for 5-8 minutes.

Make Rosin out of Kief

Prefer a different concentrate over hash? If you want an extract that you can hit off a dab nail or from a pen, consider pressing your kief into rosin. With a just a hair straightener, unbleached coffee filter and a piece of wax paper, you can have rosin in minutes. First, press your kief into a puck. Then you need to wrap the puck in the filter, followed then by the parchment paper. You are going to want to run the hair straightener at a lower temperature for kief compared to flower--right around 200-250 F. Firmly press the wrapped up kief in the hot iron and in 30-45 seconds you’ll have a fresh batch of oozing rosin! Just make sure to cool it off before smoking it. This can be done by placing it in the fridge for a bit, or if it’s cool where you live, then just placing it on the counter will suffice.

Conclusion

While it might be tempting to always load your kief into a bowl, there are tons of great ways to experience kief. This is by no means a complete list of how you can utilize your kief. So, get creative, get outside your comfort zone, and experience kief in an all-new way today.

If you live in a state where marijuana has been legalized, you’ve probably noticed the percentages of THC and CBD that dispensaries list for each strain of marijuana that they sell.

You may also wonder how those scores were found and measured and how accurate they actually are.

As it turns out, testing cannabinoids in marijuana is not as standardized as you might expect, and the percentages that you see attributed to each strain may not mean exactly what you think they do.

What characteristics of marijuana do you most enjoy? Whether you love its aroma, its flavor, or its psychological effects, the chances are that what you love is derived from one tiny part of the cannabis plants: trichomes.

If you’ve never heard of trichomes before, you might be more familiar with kief, which is a collection of trichomes which have been separated from, or hash, which is kief that has been heated and pressed together.

If you love marijuana, you owe a debt of gratitude to trichomes. Let’s take a closer look at what they are and what they do.

Have you ever tried making magic brownies at home? It probably didn’t work out as expected unless you knew to do one important step before hand. You need to decarboxylate your weed.

You may be thinking, “But I don’t ever decarboxylate my weed before smoking, and I still get high. What gives?”

Hold your horses. We’ll get there.

There has never been a better time to be alive as a cheba enthusiast. Marijuana legalization has passed in many states and is gaining momentum not just in our country but around the world. Additionally, the ability for stoners to find each other through the internet and share ideas means there is a ton of great information available for those looking for new and innovative ways to get high. Seeing as how we make it super easy to collect kief from your buds, sharing interesting ways to use kief is a top priority of ours. 

Amongst cannabis connoisseurs, concentrates are very popular. Concentrates get their name because they have higher (concentrated) levels of THC compared to typical marijuana flower. Concentrates are highly sought after because they are fast acting, potent, and flavorful. But concentrates come in many different forms, and there are some differences between them. The biggest distinction between types of concentrates is by the process used to extract the terpenes, trichomes, and/or oils from marijuana buds: more specifically, whether or not solvents are used.

Kief (also known as dry sift) is a marijuana extract that consists of the trichomes or resin glands found on cannabis flower. It is in these tiny, hairlike structures that the terpenes and cannabinoids that gives cannabis its unique properties are produced. As a result, kief has much higher concentrated amounts of THC than the rest of the cannabis plant making it a highly valued substance. The problem with kief is figuring out the best way to separate it from your marijuana flower. Luckily, there are a few different ways you can go about doing just that.

Most stoners have enjoyed a wake and bake session or two at some point in time. There’s nothing quite like starting off your day with a nice cup of coffee and a puff of the good stuff. But why not combine the two in a way that’ll be nicer on your lungs since there won’t be any smoking involved? You can call it “Hillbilly Crack” or a “Hippie Speedball” but there is no doubt that cannabis infused coffee is a great take on the classic wake and bake.

Call us stoners, potheads, dopeheads, or even hopheads, but if you regularly enjoy the consumption of cannabis in some form, you probably love kief.

Kief is made up of the trichomes of marijuana or the small, delicate, hair-like THC factories found on marijuana flower. Kief is very potent as it contains much higher concentrations of THC than flower alone, and it is also very versatile. It can be used to top off a joint or bowl, in cooking, or to make tinctures. There is a lot you can do with kief which is why it’s unfortunate that it is fairly difficult to separate those precious trichomes from the rest of the marijuana flower.
