What Can You Do with Kief?

Kief, the resinous trichomes collected from cannabis flowers, is a versatile concentrate that offers a world of possibilities for cannabis enthusiasts. In this article, we’ll delve into the exciting ways you can make the most of kief using the innovative line of LĒVO at-home herbal infusion machines. Whether you’re a culinary connoisseur or an adventurous DIY enthusiast, this guide will inspire you to unlock the full potential of kief in your cannabis-infused creations.

What is Kief and How Is It Collected?

Kief, often referred to as “cannabis pollen,” is a concentrated form of cannabis that consists of the resinous trichomes found on the surface of cannabis flowers. These trichomes contain a plethora of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other compounds responsible for the plant’s unique effects and flavors. To collect kief, you can employ various methods such as:

• Dry Sifting: Using a fine-mesh screen or specialized kief box, dry sifting involves gently shaking or agitating cannabis buds to separate the trichomes from the plant material.
• Pollen Press: A pollen press can be used to compress kief into solid, hash-like discs or pucks for convenient storage and consumption.
