I'd hit it!Happy Friday GT and friends! Here's tonight's night cap, BlackBerry kush, pink kush CBD and white widow rosin. I hope everyone has a fantastic evening. Thanks again for the tips on collecting the hard to get rosin. I'm gathering purple goo slowly but surely.
Hi all. Got room in this room for a newbie? Never smoked rosin though I did try shatter once that had been purchased from a dealer. I'm assuming they are not exactly the same???
Need CBD and thc to counter the pain from a severely compromised back AND fibromyalgia combined.
Have thought about using rosin instead of green but I dont know much about it, actually. So I came here hoping to learn.
I've been looking at presses here online and they dont seem terribly expensive so I though that, come the fall, that I might buy one. I'll need some advice in that department when the time comes...
So hope you dont mind my dropping in here unannounced!
All my best,
~Magnus
I don’t know what that is? Irwin
You clearly are more experienced than me , I max out at 4 gram pucks .. I recover more yield with my wee 10 ton dab press when I do smaller pucks than I do making a big mess with larger pucks .
I’m special
Haha
Namaste!
It’s a binding agent. I believe it helps with evenly distributing the THC molecules throughout the entire mixture. That’s a guess. I do notice I get high a little quicker with lecithin added. Maybe that’s psychological...I’m a freaking placebo!
Wow!!!to the thread!
Rosin can be smoked, ingested, used topically, or in a suppository. Fresh off the press, the cannabinoids are in the same state as flower, so you'll need to decarb it if you don't smoke it to convert the acidic forms to the non-acidic forms (ie: THCa -> THC) if those are what you want. You can further process the rosin with a press to extract the THCa to get diamonds and sauce. It's simply a concentrate that can open a whole new world for you.
I can't smoke flower or rosin without trying to cough up a lung. I press the flower that I grow, decarb the rosin, mix it with coconut oil and liquid lecithin, before putting it into capsules. The advantage is that I can use cannabis for my back without coughing up a lung. The disadvantage is that it takes 90 minutes to 2-1/2 hrs before it starts working, A nice side affect is that the smoking rules society has put in place don't apply to rosin capsules. They can be taken discretely anywhere, anytime.
The amount you can press at a time is dependent upon the press you get. I have the Dabpress dp-hr10t35 with 3" x 5" plates, and a 10 ton hydraulic ram. It can handle two 7gm bottle or chottle tech pucks at a time, so 1/2oz flower per stroke. I can easily press a pound of flower a day. It takes me another day to decarb, mix it, and put it into capsules.
However you want to use the rosin you'll need a clamp, pre-press mold, filter bags, dab tools, and silicone coated parchment to extract the rosin with your press. With 3" plates, I recommend a 30mm round pre-press mold. The pre-press molds get sticky and hard to use after a while, so you'll need to clean them with isopopyl alcohol after every eight to sixteen pucks.
Ask here before you buy a press. Some of those available are crap, and the folks here will be glad to help you avoid them. Occasionally someone here will want to sell their press when they upgrade to a larger one, so you may be able to get a deal on a gently used press.
Ok so i got alil 6ton dabpress an a few times ive done it now the bags seem to jus suck up the oil thts pressed out the side. But thats when they are filled up so would i maybe have a better chance if i used smaller amounts then you think?
I can’t use bags to save my life !!! Naturally some impurities and fats get in my resin but it’s the toll ..
with a really tight c clamp pre pressed puck I don’t get any debris .. so it works , for me
Nice colour ggYou people are freaking awesome! If you got questions about rosin—or anything for that matter—let it rip. I love my Rosin!
“Some fuqing corona killer right here son!” This is why I love my Grandpa Glue. Enjoy and stay safe please.
I find every strain is different. Every grower is different. Press may not be the same, etc. I get consistent results from my glue and she’s very photogenic, so that’s why I use her often.
I love that you guys smash stuff too!
@Old Salt you’re already way beyond my skill level, but I love watching you do magic.
