Grandpa Likes To Squeeze Stuff: Solventless Extracts, Rosin, Pressed Here!

So allowing rosin to air out and harden, this results in “wax”?
I don’t think there is a standard for the terminology, I’m trying to make sure I understand.

Technically, I think the term wax is used for BHO that is agitated or stirred when evaporating or purging. But, with rosin mine turns pretty waxy if it’s left out. Probably because the RH is pretty low here. It might not be the same where you are. I would imagine that a higher humidity could allow it to ‘cure’ slower. I’m guessing though. I like it waxy. It’s easy to work with. I can plop a piece in the bowl pretty easy.

Pressing at lower temps will give a sugar or wax like consistency as well. Allowing your rosin to sit out and get touched by the air is allowing it to degrade and lose quality.

Glass air tight containers stored in a cool dry place away from the light is the best.

I leave it out until it’s gone. It’s still good for weeks.

I had to replace a coil in my pen. Warning! Don’t put huge dabs in there. I put way too much apparently...it was dripping all the way down into the battery top. Anyway, put small dabs in there and take small hits.
My Rosin looks good though...yes it does.

That’s the objective since I’ve got a vape pen on the way...

I kind of figured that them coils would get all gooey, so I orders the ceramic coils also.

Grandpa...lil trick, piece of alfoil in a pan, put the coil section in there upside down, heat up over burner, all the,oil runs off, keep moving around until oil is all out with tongs or pliers...HOT!
Make that dead coil like new.

My pen has been tortured, need to buy a new one.
Looking at my 6 tonne shop press and thinking of changing all my plates and control gear onto that.
Will take a few mods but need more squish power I think.

To be honest , my press is cheap and nasty. Opened it up, earth was completely loose, digital gear held in with glue... Is a bitch to clean if you have a run over. The wheel is ok , but the threaded spline makes for uneven contact of plates unless the puck is exactly under the centre thread section, because there is no cage or solid mounting point to keep it,stable.
Just my 2 cents....go dabpress.... Cost me a few hundred and will have to mod it or scrap it....caged plates just a bit more... Grrrr..too hasty.
 
My first question to Alexa. “Alexa?” Blue light comes on, “what’s the best temperature to squeeze GG4?”
She replies, in a very sultry voice, “I don’t know, should I call Grandpa?”

Utterly useless technology...

After she finished talking to you, she notified your local law enforcement agency... LOL Let's hope they dont actually rat people out! My PARANOID self wont use them.

Now that is a conspiracy theory gone wild.

Is Alexa actually listening, do you really have to say it's name to get it to listen to what you are saying.
If she is, where is that info going? Hell it's marketing, they are not going to turn you in if they have a chance to sell you something. It's similar to the power company, why would they turn you in as long as you pay your bill on time. It would go against the betterment of their shareholders. :)

But I hate that bitch, won't have a damn thing to do with her.

Saying that, what temp are you squishing that "Wax", does it seem to burn cleaner than the gooey Rosins?
Inquiring minds would like to know!
