Just some Rosin pressing porn....
I decarbed on my press, overflowed while bubbling, had to pull whole press apart to clean... Not good... Lol.
Press back together tomorrow....all clean now.
I really liked decarbing the Rosin in a Pyrex measuring cup in hot oil, I used peanut oil, all I had, but when I do it again it will be with veggie oil, it's cheaper.
I adjusted the heat of the burner so the temp at the base of Pyrex was 225 then I added the Rosin and slowly raised the heat to 235 when the bubbles in the Rosin stopped. I had planed to go up to 240 if needed.
I tried decarbing some FECO, that was not decarbed prior to making the oil, with the Pyrex cup in boiling water. That worked but took a long time and it never completely removed all the bubbles from the FECO.
I thought about using the press but with the set distance apart the plates are, for me to get a silicone container under there that is large enough to prevent boiling overflow, I cannot see the inside of the container to tell when it is ready.
The Rosin I decarbed was a high Indica cannabis, the next one I plan on doing is either going to be G13 Haze, Sativa dominate or Ayahuasco Purple, 100% Indica.
I have grown the G13 before and it was a lovely plant. 26.5 zips of smokable bud, would have made some great Rosin.
Ahhh, reminiscing!
