Our stuff wasn't even close to being the viscosity of something that would drip...more like thick honey and we only found it here and there on buds. You sure you're not talking about your plants transpiring off water of the tips of leaves, etc? If you have honey type shit dripping off buds, then you have something far more pronounced than we got. We dabbed (vape nail) the stuff shown in the video and it was delicious and had a very strong body high effect.

We ran half at 160 micron and half at 120 micron. Very, very hard to tell the difference in sight, taste, and smoke. 120 may be just a tinge blonder.
Beware that the bags get clogged up and wet pretty quickly (depending on strain, of course) due to the moisture content from the trim and trichomes (even if it appears very dry). The dry ice has no moisture. We put our bags in front of a powerful fan for about 10 minutes between runs to dry them out, then you could shake a ton more off of the bags and screens once they were dry. Also, make sure to clean the inner rim and stitching inside the bag between runs to knock off any green material, otherwise it will continue to break down and eventually get in with your keif.

I found that the coldest keeps the moisture from clogging the edges..add extra ice chunks to allieviate this is what I been doing...and the extra leftover ice...duh!?! Goes into the flower roorep!m for extra enhancement of my dollars$!

don't forget to wash your bags down between strains with alcohol for a quick yield of while your still running shatter and to unclog the screens. The moisture buildup problems your having are from shit taking too long to go through before moisture condenses on the surface and makes the object even larger.

Thanks bro. We did run 99% ISO through them and they did, indeed, produce nice product. Once they'd start to clog, we'd take a beer/toke break and put them in front of fans. They were dry within 5 - 10 minutes and we were able to shake most remaining kief out of them with ease.
