New extraction technique? Rosin tech?

Funny as shit...whipped up a batch of hand pressed rosin from some Just about dried WW flower...abit too much moisture still, but my slabs weren't done yet in my chambers so figured why not bring some Rosin....so the tiny bit of moisture crackle when dabbed.

let buddy sample.......calls it straight up TANE SOUP..lol...

And he is a so called BHO expert .....who cannot tell Rosin with a bit of residual moisture from Tane soup.....

Things that make you go hmmmnnnn,,,,

I have had people say that before even hitting it, and the rosin I got doesn't crackle at all when dabbed. But yet the little gooeyness it has makes people think it hasn't been purged properly.

non purged butane extract doesn't crackle. Water in any extract will make that happen.

What are your guys thoughts to those China pneumatic presses? Yay or nay?

Someone is selling a relatively new press. (Was manufactured in March) near me for 500.00

Check alibaba, and see what they are charging not there. I would be cautious. With rosin presses you pretty much get what you pay for. I Have a Smash lab 1 ton. It's good but not great
I had to Mcgyver it with a ratcheting strap. Manual presses are very labor intensive.
 
I know folks are using baileigh shop presses and getting good results... I havent been able to turn up any info on how to convert one. Finally have a free moment and am doing some research right now.

has anyone ever tried winterizing rosin? just to see what kind of fats/lipids are actually being extracted. ive been wanting to do it for a while but thought id see if anyone had ever heard of someone else experimenting with it.

yes, and freeze drying as well. these will help rid any extra water particulate.

you know watery rosin by the wrinkly parchment paper:tiphat::tiphat:

havent seen too much as far as lipid separation, unless there's a seed been pressed too

so youve actually winterized rosin and havent seen too much as far as lipid separation? i would assume with pressing at higher temps youre also pressing out lots of undesireables. how much did you press and what did you end up with? what were the yield %? any pics of the filter papers?

press it, freeze it and check it out.

press it throw it in some 200 and watch the minimal seperation, as it freezes.

granted i havent winterized an ounce or large amounts

each squish is 3-4 gram, i try to stay away from to dry or too wet each tends to put chloro into the rosin making it darker. yields are between 20-30% strain dependant, i rarely use filter bags, i like the open pressing for flowers.

no i mean more like comparing the amount of lipids in bho to rosin. with rosin youre using high temps where id assume youre more likely to extract lipids, with bho you use super cold temps, filtering and a lot of the time secondary filtering. let alone the guys who take dewaxed bho and winterize that and still pull lipds out.
i heard recently that someone was allergic to weed but it helped them. if they smoked it their lungs would close up, dabbing flower rosin his lungs would totally close up, dabbing sift rosin wasnt as bad, dabbing dewaxed bho had zero side effects. so im just wondering how much plant matter is still in rosin as compared to bho. and obviously all the bho is made properly and purged properly...

I just got a china press. I can not tell any difference from the same type that cost 2000+
I got this 1 for 800$ shipped. I'm looking for best recipes. Does anyone use those smash bags. I have done a few runs using smash bags. I got 1.4g from 9.5g flowers. No clue if that's a good return. I would rather have a 4x4 plate that is heated but all of these plates have that grove down the center or on the sides.

I rock the harbor freight 20ton press and 3x5 plates from low temp plates. I used to run the 5x7 plates, but went back to the 3x5. Better runs. I do a dry ice extraction with a 160 bubble bag, stuff 5.5g of kief in 25iu baggies, then press. For flowers I just put the buds in parchment, and press away. My God bud strain, 3.5g in, 1.25 rosin out.

Here's some darlins net popcorn runs, dry ice, 25iu baggies, 220* temp

I use the baggies from sho bags. Been thru over 150 baggies in 30 days or so.

36% ya, its interesting, we seem to be squishing more out than people can get with BHO. Wonder what the extra shit is?
