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

It’s 0400 in the morning...do you know what Grandpa just did?

A dab of course...actually it was two... :cheesygrinsmiley:

The simplicity of doing a dab—especially with this nectar collector—compared with a bong/joint is incredible. Don’t get me wrong, I still like to hit my bong...and smoking a joint is just fun, but this stuff is something special.

I’m stoned...that is all...
 
Hey wait a second! You can’t tease us like that and not show the goods. We’ve been waiting with you...:straightface:

You realize I spent yesterday afternoon dabbing and licking some goo off my fingers and whatnot... yes?
Completely crashed. Slept for 10hrs. Crazy.
I'll crank up the camera for a little pressing later today. Gotta get my day on before I dab my ass into oblivion again. I'm gonna try to find a pollen collector doo-dad on my journeys today. Also on the list for the day.... ejuice creation.
 
I think I may end up going primarily with dabs as I like the concentrated part. I hate having to smoke two to three bowls just to get an average high. Give me some of that high octane

That's a fact. I'll smoke some flower here and there to sample mostly. And I love a good blunt when I'm fishing. But, all I taste is smoke, mostly. Or blunt wrapper.

Nothing like dabs. It's healthier, quicker, potent, and leaves very little smell behind.

And, the taste of each strain is incredible from squished flower.
 
Try lower temps, less pressure. There is a certain finesse to each press to figure how the press heats the bag, etc. You will get the hang of it. Most of the stuff I use now I press at 160 bags at 175f for 2 min or so. Sometimes 170.

Overloading bags is a sure fire way to a blowout. Especially with fresh bud at higher temps. Pressing at 210-220 is going to boil any water left in that bud.

What bags are you using?

Great word... thanks!
160's that came with the press.
I cut the bottom out of the bags... really just because all the videos I saw did that. I'm gonna leave the next one intact.
I've been pressing as hard as I could crank the jack... I'll back off.
I'll crank the size down as well. I was doing 10g.

Did you get the puck press with that press you bought ? This is a 7gram puck before pressing.

Yeah, I use a dowel rod and some PVC to make a plug/puck and pre-press what I squish.....
 
lower temps more butter like rosin with little more terps 170-180 deg. Higher temps 200-210 deg. More shatter like rosin or should I say stable like not soft can touch roll into little BB like balls for my vape/dab pen. :passitleft::cough::thumb:

I did. It's very nice. I split my 7g in half to make it easier to get into the screen tube. Looked much like yours.

That's an awesome DIY design!

Gotcha. I did 210. I'll drop down to 180f and see what I get. Thanks!
 
Around my parts, and among my friends dabbing is something new. I've had to almost convince my friends to try it. I use an erig at home to vape the oil I squish. Anyway, once they do,, the look in their eyes when they taste it, and it hits them. Is priceless. Just be careful... hehe... I tell them.

Dabbing is to cannabis what good liquor is to alcohol. Very strong and potent, but flavorful. And it sits deep inside me unlike anything I've smoked. Best of all you can taste the flower that you smell when it's grown or properly cured.

There's nothing like it.... enjoy your day folks:Namaste:

Oh la la! That profile pic...:drool:
Tell me about your press. It doesn't look like the "dabpress" brand.
 
Good old conversions! I had a guy working for me few years back that tried to argue a “tonne” and a “ton” were the same measurement :hmmmm::rolleyes:

Can't teach a Heinz Pickle anything... I had one of those working for me. Interestingly his initials were also H.P. I started calling him HP and he never caught on, although a few co-workers did.

Nothing special really. I think I'm into it for $125 bucks. You can make yer own without much effort or expense. Like anything I guess. Its really not rocket science. Heat + pressure = oil

Press and stand from harbor freight. The plates, PID or controller was from the zon.

I'm looking into a pneumatic press for version two, but I'm in no rush really.
