Hello gang! This is gonna be a thread for the works at the lair, like pictures of my setup, experiments, and right now i wanna show you what i am getting for Xmas, a ROSIN PRESS! Inspired by @Kraven, and seconded by @ReikoX, i have now made the decision, this is what i want for XmasâŚ
Looks great man, super happy for you. This will open a whole new door of tech and you will find this will make you self sufficient. I will say i never press past 5 tons and most of the time around 2-3 maxâŚif i could have gotten a press designed like this one above but only a 5 ton that would have been plenty. It takes a lot work trying to get each strain dialed in, but when you do its nice to go to the book and know hey SSDD needs to be pressed at 3 tons @215f with a 30 sec warm and a 1 min press from zip to pressure quicklyâŚwhere IC needs to be pressed at 2 tons @ 185 with a 30 sec warm and a slow zip to pressure over 1 minuteâŚbring some friends and squish small amounts, you gotta smoke all the test rosin lol
Thatâs one thing my press is lacking, a pressure gauge. You get a feel for it though. Pressed out some old Afghani (about a year old, exposed to sunlight and air in an attempt to convert the THC to CBN) last night. It came out a crazy orange/amber color and put me right to bed. Super low yields though, about 3%
I was in San Jose, Downtown Costa Rica and brought a little something from the big guy downtownâŚ
Cherry OG Kush, Critical Haze and Gorilla Glue shatter/rosin/extract⌠Half oz of each bud, and 3g of wax, plus a little something they brought⌠Here!
I doubt it very much, maybe the Pure Kush yes, but not the 3g of extract i bought, those are made here, and we costaricans tend to cut corners on everything we can, only reason why i sayâŚ
