@rave05 I use a heavy OG kush…but I can tell you each strain produces it’s own rosin, there are some sticky amazing strains that doing squish out anything, and others that it flows so much it doesn’t make sense
I grow my own and have been pressing my own concentrates for years. I just reach into a jar, grab a handful, wad it up, put it between the parchment sheets and press. I usually press either at 180F or 190F. It depends on each strain. I like the lower temperature presses because the aroma and flavor are on point. I have a Grandpa's stash variety pack growing now, and THAT stuff is FROSTY. It won't be ready for pressing for another 2 months because it has another month to grow, but I just like going into the room and smelling the air. It's all about the terpines to me. I press for about 3 minute "or-so," and usually call it done by that point. If anyone is worried about a few leaf flakes in their dabs, they're just a snob. 😅
@@Steve-rg7mq I press at 170 or 175 for a more crumbly texture. You'll have a lesser return, but you'll like the aroma and vapor better. When you press it at 175, gather your rosin and then "stir it" with your rosin tool. Make a blob of it on the parchment and let it sit overnight exposed. It'll break apart the next day. I never press at 195. 190 is the highest I go, and if the nugs don't produce decently at lower temps. it's not worth pressing.
yo everyone who watches this video is gonna have a great result for the 140 F squish. i ran some top tier bud from clout kings(michigan) and from cookies dispo and both turn out fantastic i tried on 158 F but the flavor starts to drop at that point tbh. i want to thank you for the demonstration and knowledge. it helped me got from beginner to semi-pro in only 2 weeks. im actually producing for others now that my quality has inproved.
What I have found is that you should never throw away your smashed bud or bags because there is still a lot of THC left in them. I take all my pucks sometimes as many as fourteen "flat pucks" and do an alcohol extraction of them and get a whole lot more RSO when you've evaporated the alcohol. I mix that RSO or Rosin in a 1:1 ratio with XCT oil. During the press I was told to use 97 degrees Centigrade or 207 degrees Fahrenheit, which is why I call it RSO because it is very dark. I'll try a lower temp and see how it comes out. Greatly appreciate the comparison as I have not seen anyone do that before, so we can see the differences in timing and temperature.
@@seanhayhaywood1755 No I would advise against it and the reason I mention using the Alcohol Extraction method was that I can extract the rest of the THC. Also, it is three years later and I no longer use the NUG-Smasher and do alcohol extractions exclusively now. Yes 200 proof food grade Ethyl Alcohol is expensive but I only use about a pint or so out of the gallon I purchased on line for about $100+ which gives me enough for 8 extractions, so adding less than $13 dollars a run. I've also changed the ratio or oil to rosin. I now use one of rosin to 1/2 of oil, thus the mixture I end up with is so strong that I only use 3/10s of a gram/milliliter, using 1ml. oral syringes. I also have a Nug Smasher to sell if anyone is interested. I live in San Diego. I almost forgot if you purchased a gallon they will charge you a hazmat fee which is about $40 dollars, so the total of what I just reordered was $144 dollars which makes the eight extractions cost about $18 dollars each for about two months worth of my mix. If you grow your own as we do here in California that is one hell of a savings rather than having to purchase your weed at a dispensary for about $165 an ounce of 22% THC Cannabis I managed to grow almost two pounds of dried bud, which will last me for well over a year. I had to purchase that much as a dispensary it would have cost me over $5,000 dollars for the year, so if you only imbibe once In a while, I would stick to smoking it or making brownies.
If you trim the outer edge of the bud-puck with your fiskars scissors, there's a fair amount of consentrate remaining there. I put it my bong and torch it. It's good for a rip.
I use a three min cycle always at 80 - RH of the bud at a min of 62% to a max of 71% - the cycle goes as this: min 1 two tons maintained, 30 sec at 3 tons, 30 secs at 4 ton and last min at 5 tons - I have found this process to give the best return overall (quality and quantity). My pucks then are destined to become butter - awesome vid, does take a long while dialling in to what works best for each of us
This was an fn awesome video to come across! Just bought myself a press so researching tips and tricks. So interesting the outcomes from the different temperatures 😍😍😍
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR VIDEO I'M ALL NEW TO THIS I'M 1 IN 3 WHO IS ALLOWED TO HAVE THC IN MY SYSTEM AND I'M ALLOWED TO GROW AS WELL. BUT I CAN ONLY HAVE TWO PLANTS AT A TIME!! I'M FROM AUSTRALIA I THOUGHT YOU COULD ONLY USE 30 TO 40 GRAMS BUT SEEING THIS GUESS WHO IS MAKING ROSIN SOON............ME! THANK YOU AGAIN DUDE.
With the price you paid for the mini you could have bought a regular sized or 2 small ones on Amazon. But people just be throw in their money away lmfao
This is pressing freshly picked flowers? You can't press anything that's dried and jar cured? When I screen it then block press it to hash then I decarb it around 180 it has a nice blonde color inside with that darker brownish "baked" outside. I'd love to press out just the pure resins. When I trim the buds for drying my shears gum up where I have to clean then with alcohol and even that gum smokes pretty good. It tastes unreal it's so damn sweet
@@rosinguy7794 Well i've quit the bong cause for some reason i suck at it, i got high but puke so often, my lungs are really baby ones, so i was wondering if id be able to clean hit it
@Rosin Guy Towards the end of the video you begin saying "the higher the temperature gets the further the oil spreads from the flower." Maybe I misunderstood you, but it is actually happening because of the rise of temperature. Oil does not want to be near heat (lipids begin breaking down) so they (the lipids) move away from it. You can easily see this in action when you do a cold start dab. First the dab melts and then begins to move towards the walls of the banger. Then when cleaning and it is a small layer of oil when you blast to clean you can see the oil move up the banger walls trying to escape the heat.
I'm not saying oil is sentient or anything like that. I'm just stating that lipids molecular structure is sensitive to heat so this is how it reacts. Good show of how temperature effects final product.
Definitely appreciate your time and work to share your results, Terps start to go at very low temps so fridge is right on in my opinion, i do the same. Get some micron bags man, they're cheap and if your just starting it's one of the things you should buy! And they will produce a much cleaner product. You can go with higher micron 100-140 or lower 30-40 you'll get 2 or 3 percent less with smaller but supposedly same quality, so u might wanna go larger. Ive found closer you can get to pressing at the decarb temp, just above it. A small fan outside the press will help it cool enough as it comes out to not run off, just don't have it blowing right on your plates and messing with your pid controllers.
@@rosinguy7794 alright cool, i subscribed and intend to check more videos out. yea that was more in general towards anyone watching unaware of bags. Cuz they can be so helpful.. something i would love to have shared with me if i didn't know about them. Maybe I'll try a like 30mm fan on one of those magnetic positionable soldering arms for incase of hot thinned product running too much.
I always test my bud by pressing a g to see what comes out but Lower temps is definitely the way to go it’s butters up nice but less in return I got back .26 from a g at 230f and .20 at 190f I’ll take that all day flavor smell is crazy
@@mrtickprice4614 Depends on the buds. Something like two minutes. I go until it looks like the resin stops easily extruding out. There is stuff still left in the buds with my setup.
Those are some pretty nice returns. I just pressed some 1 week old death bubba the other day and I had 20.8 grams weighed out and pre pressed in a 90 micron bag. At 220 degrees fahrenheit I pressed it for 3 1/2 minutes and got 4.5 grams off the first press of nice golden yellow rosin and then a whole other gram off of press 2. I think age has a lot to do with color aswell.
I don’t have a press yet and I have been pressing on a hair straightener 😂and it was working really good with this one strain and then I got different strains and the rosin comes out almost wet! Where I can’t even collect it off the parchment! The hair straightener only goes down to 310deg is this why it’s coming out wet? To much heat? Yeah it’s super oily!
When u stack rosin or any butter it gets darker . The quality isn’t any different if u ask me that’s just more rosin on itself . If u spread it out it all turns gold
@@holdyourplums4204 Use a micron filter bag (like 90u to 160u) instead of just leaving the buds out on its own, that way you get a little stuck in the puck after words and you can cook with the puck.
So you can actually press flower at temperatures as low as 140°, I have a rosin press and have been pressing at 2:07 to 2:15 and nothing lower than $200 did I mess up and no wonder why my rosin color in my carts are really dark instead of light yellow like I would perfer
Bro....maybe you can help me. I press at 140F for 60 seconds (2 presses to get it all out) and that has given the best quality. With over a dozen strains it 100% butters, sometimes a heat cure is necessary. Yet I see everyone online pressing at 180F+ for 2-3 minutes and still get nice rosin. I feel like maybe dispo buds are just so good they make up for the operator frying terpenes? I use street buds, and this is the only reason I can figure.
i do it at 160 for 3 mins and get amazing results, no need for a second press. give that a try and let me know what you think! I'm also doing smaller nugs, maybe .5-1g nugs
you can use the leftover bud to make edibles because they still have thc, you do have to use alot more than you would use if you were making it with flower. or you can repress it
@@Actionjaxon22 - I run my flats though a coffee grinder once I have a oz worth. Then soak them in everclear then strain the everclear though a coffee filter then separate the everclear from your concentrate then let sit out for a few hours for the rest of the everclear to evaporate. All together it takes a weekend (2 days) most of it is just waiting.
Thank you for these videos, New Zealand is having a marijuana law reform on September 2020, If it passes I hope to do this if not only for myself but for others to experience and enjoy.
@@googleemail7369 Referendum for legal cannabis didn't get passed but euthanasia did, how ever we do have Legal Medical Cannabis now, pretty easy and straight forward to get, it's a step in the right direction and allows people that need it the most access to it so that's all that matters.
@@Goosegen well I mean, if you're low on weed then it's worth it to just smoke your rosin chips. I always get just as high smokin the chips as I do smoking the regular weed
@@Goosegen yeah, I've made edibles with my chips before. I dont really like doing that because for some reason every time I've had an edible weather it was from a dispensary or homemade, I never get high off them. I even bought two 250mg edibles from a dispensary and me n my brother each ate the full 250 and waited but it never hit us
Yea idk I press my stuff at 190 F for 2 min per 2-3.5 gs at a time and never yield less than 25% usually more and it’s beautifully blonde every time. Different strains produce darker rosins of course but the consistency and color are always the similar. In my opinion anything under 180 F is a bad press.
@Cliff P Not if you're using wax paper, a fresh razor, and an even pressure as you scoop. Then you can scrape it off with another razor or knife to get a clean blob, and scrape it into a silicone container or wherever
That’s a great question. Yes it starts to tastes slightly different, less flavour the darker it is. But because these are so close in temp, it’s pretty similar. Blonde is always the best flavour, but that’s just my opinion and preference! 😎
Rosin Guy to get the blondie color what temperature would you recommend ? Please and thank you sir 👌 I just bought a nugsmasher OG and have been trying different methods but nothing . I’ll really appreciate this please 🙏
I'd like to have my own setup and I'm not far off but my question is, what should I use for heat? When I look for hot plates all I find is kitchen hot plates. Id appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction
With the low temp have you tried to double the time to let the oils flow since it's less temp over the same amount of time you would give a high temp press where the oil would flow quicker/easier
Hey there! i really like the process, i had question what is difference between this thing and canabis oil, i am extracting canabis oil with solvent and then heating process, can you guide me here,
hello the diff is nothing except that you use a chemical solvent and then purge it off like bho or qwiso you get same sortof end product, but withthis method in thoery you should just have higher purity/quality if done right because it doesnt even touch a solvet for the same yield.
Is rosin a lot smoother than flower? I just started using weed for medical purposes and I cant stand smoking it. Never smoked anything in my life and the taste/smell is awful to me. I don't use edibles as I need instant relief. So I'm looking into rosin/dabs or vaporizing flower.
have you considered oral sprays? They take effect faster. Rosin can be smooth, if vaped at a low temp.. but it sounds like sprays could be a good option for you if you don't like the harshness of inhaling cannabis.
Rosin is not smooth!!!! It’s way stronger then anything else period. Can dab a gram of shatter or wax (made with butane/solvents) but when it comes to dabbing rosin, it’s way way smaller....way way stronger.
This really isn't the best approach for you to use. Try the Magical Butter on Amazon, and make edibles. The edibles take longer to work, but if it's for medical use you would factor that into your schedule. Tons of edible vids on RUclips.
Yo what if you individually pressed like 20 grams (no heat), stacked them on top of each other, put a filter the size as the weed patty below them, and then used some kind of wrap to enclose it.. would it smoke?
Sorry, but just to be clear if you cold press flower you keep more of the terps but get a less yeild amount? Assuming im pressing it at a regular temperature
Do you prefer to extract herbs without a bag? Do you use bag or no bag the most? Thanks for the video! Gave me inspiration to get a nugsmasher mini and start producing my own rosin!
My rosin lately been coming out so hard to scoop off parchment I’ve done it before no issues but lately last few times so hard it’s cured bud pressing 80-93 Celsius used frozen plates everything why is it doing this?
lots of things will change that, like how its stored, how long ago it was dried, how moist it might be, and other factors. if i had to guess, i would say its probably just the weed being older or something
Nah, it works that's how you get live rosin. You need to freeze fresh bud and squish, yes water will come out but oil and water don't mix so most of it seperates on the parchment, it will have to cure a bit longer but I got purpl/blonde live rosin that tasted amazing. It sizzles during the press but that's the water cooking off, it's a bit messier and not my preference I will admit but it DOES work.
I press the 1st press on 200 and the 2nd press at 210. The higher temps tend to have a darker tint and more yield with stable consistency. Lower temps have less yield but the flavor is unappareled and the color is blondish whether budder or shatter. Nice vid tho bro! I got a nugsmasher og .Go lazy ! Lol
I'm waiting on my press to be delivered this week and I MUST sayi learned so much from this video! I have watched a shit ton of vids in an attempt to prepare for my first press but this video gave me so much info. I think you saved me for real cause I was planning on pressing at 200°F from the other vids I've watched😂🤣😂 I will probably do the third temp because I dont have a lot of access to a lot of bud and my first press I think I'm only gonna do about 10 grams. Fingers crossed I can get 20%! 2 grams would be awesome! Thanks again for the video! I literally feel like I got everything I need to know from this one vid!
@@rosinguy7794 nice I def need to buy a press. Itll million times cheaper then buying decarbed concentrates for 60 a gram when I I can just press out a couple nugs 🤣🤣Thanks.
Tips on getting a butter consistency? I always seem to have either really dark or a almost golden color but it's always so much like a gum instead of it breaking easily to take a dab.
@@MrPINYPONG you could do either or (" I just keep mine in parchment paper, leave it in the sun, wait a few hrs, and use a dab tool to whip/mix the wax in a circular motion. This will give you a batter consistency. If u keep repeating this , it'll eventually turn into crumble. 🤘 hope this helps.
Tips are to use freshly dried bud (not 6 months old) and to use lots of pressure for a short period of time. Sorry for the late reply, I’m just getting my channel going again. I’m making lots of new content…stay tuned!
I make butter with all my flat pressed flower. Butter is so potent use coconut oil for best return of THC. You do not have to decarboxylate it just low heat for 3hrs then filter out oil from pucks
I think it’s all said in the Audio…and I pressed it for about a minute if I remember. Sorry for the late reply, I’m just getting my channel going again. I’m making lots of new content…stay tuned!
190 is definitely not too hot You just have to go into it slow but then gradually all the way…and not for too long. Colder presses can work wonders for certain strains, so try the lower and see how it comes out :) I’ve gone to 165 in some kinds, but normally 180-185 ish is the sweet spot
If it's steaming, are you in a cold garage or is the flower soaking wet? If not your temp might be way hotter than it's actually saying because I've never had steam. Even if I wanted to go to 220 it wouldn't be steaming.
@Blue Dragon So, here's my experience so far, I use Boveda 62% humidity packs to hydrate. Depending on the consistency you like (oil/buttery) I find the higher my temp, the more oily...the lower the temp the more buttery...I average around 190 t0 205 for my strains.
Nooo hydrate your bud b4 you press bc when you press dry bud the bud immediately soaks up some of still hot rosin like a sponge as soon as you release the pressure.
I read a comment from a Rosin Guy video that said to dip one bud at a time in water (I use warm water) and the press. I tried it and it definitely worked. I got more out of the puck that had been dipped than the one that didnt.
hi, would you use the pressed bud to infuse butter? just to add on on the trim? maybe they could stil have some thc that the butter could absorb, have you tried it?
I just pressed some jungle boys wifi mintz. It was my first press ever. I’m preety happy with the result except it came out a little darker than I hoped for. I pressed it at 207 for 120 seconds. Any tips to get a more golden color ? Maybe I pressed it to hot ?
Ya bro…I definitely would do the same thing but lower the temp to about 190…maybe even 180. It really depends on the strain and how fresh it is vs super dry and old etc. Hope it helps man. Let me know! I’m back at making more content now. Much more to come 😎
For us Americans:
60°c converts to 140°F
70°c converts to 158°F
80°c converts to 176°F
90°c converts to 194°F
Thank You!!
Hahaha
Thank you
your a wizard harry 🙏🏼

A small fan outside the press will help it cool enough as it comes out to not run off, just don't have it blowing right on your plates and messing with your pid controllers.
Watch my other videos
I’ve been stitching my own bags for years, I even extract thca if you are interested :)
@@rosinguy7794 alright cool, i subscribed and intend to check more videos out. yea that was more in general towards anyone watching unaware of bags. Cuz they can be so helpful.. something i would love to have shared with me if i didn't know about them. Maybe I'll try a like 30mm fan on one of those magnetic positionable soldering arms for incase of hot thinned product running too much.
Right on man
Thanks
I always test my bud by pressing a g to see what comes out but Lower temps is definitely the way to go it’s butters up nice but less in return I got back .26 from a g at 230f and .20 at 190f I’ll take that all day flavor smell is crazy
Bud is crazy due to every nug is not the same
@Time Traveller So far I've found 210 to be great for lower pressures.
@Time Traveller Yeah I just did an RSO wash of my pucks and got almost a whole gram out of it...haha...def need more than 500 psi next time.
How long do you squish your buds for
@@mrtickprice4614 Depends on the buds. Something like two minutes. I go until it looks like the resin stops easily extruding out. There is stuff still left in the buds with my setup.
Great video very informational! Thumbs up
Thanks
I agree
True Rosin dude, look at all the rosin on his hands. Much love bro.
Thank mang
just ordered a flat iron with temp control starting at 175 degrees.. hopefully i can get some smaller presses like this
spend the money and get yourself a minipress. They're only $200-400, depending the brand.
great video very informative. Nice yields
Thank you brother
Those are some pretty nice returns. I just pressed some 1 week old death bubba the other day and I had 20.8 grams weighed out and pre pressed in a 90 micron bag. At 220 degrees fahrenheit I pressed it for 3 1/2 minutes and got 4.5 grams off the first press of nice golden yellow rosin and then a whole other gram off of press 2. I think age has a lot to do with color aswell.
It’s does indeed
Nice
I don’t have a press yet and I have been pressing on a hair straightener 😂and it was working really good with this one strain and then I got different strains and the rosin comes out almost wet! Where I can’t even collect it off the parchment! The hair straightener only goes down to 310deg is this why it’s coming out wet? To much heat? Yeah it’s super oily!
Hair straightener was always too hot for me. That’s all I used when I first started
@@rosinguy7794 it was just that one strain that gave awesome results it was San Fernando og
When u stack rosin or any butter it gets darker . The quality isn’t any different if u ask me that’s just more rosin on itself . If u spread it out it all turns gold
Save your pucks man! Micron bag it and press a little lower than normal! Stuff is great to use for rso & edibles! Not a bad video
HI...what does 'Micron bag it' mean..??
I'm just starting to explore doing this & want to learn as much as I can...Thanks.
@@holdyourplums4204 Use a micron filter bag (like 90u to 160u) instead of just leaving the buds out on its own, that way you get a little stuck in the puck after words and you can cook with the puck.
Thanks brother, i was wondering if i can use the pressed buds to make rso, thank you so much 🙏
@@JuanPerez-yi8uj I'm sure there are some guides on how to somewhere as well! Safe experimenting!

The pucks can be used to make rso.

420 friendly nice
So you can actually press flower at temperatures as low as 140°, I have a rosin press and have been pressing at 2:07 to 2:15 and nothing lower than $200 did I mess up and no wonder why my rosin color in my carts are really dark instead of light yellow like I would perfer
You been listening to nug smasher videos, huh?
@@Wide_leaf_indica710 yea like 3 years ago lol
Bro....maybe you can help me. I press at 140F for 60 seconds (2 presses to get it all out) and that has given the best quality. With over a dozen strains it 100% butters, sometimes a heat cure is necessary.
Yet I see everyone online pressing at 180F+ for 2-3 minutes and still get nice rosin.
I feel like maybe dispo buds are just so good they make up for the operator frying terpenes? I use street buds, and this is the only reason I can figure.
i do it at 160 for 3 mins and get amazing results, no need for a second press. give that a try and let me know what you think! I'm also doing smaller nugs, maybe .5-1g nugs
@@Brutal_Noodle Hello there....you press at 160c? or 160f? pardon my ignorance
you can use the leftover bud to make edibles because they still have thc, you do have to use alot more than you would use if you were making it with flower. or you can repress it
I agree
How like making edible butter? Or? Any tips would be great because I have lots of squished and need a use for it.
@@Actionjaxon22 - I run my flats though a coffee grinder once I have a oz worth. Then soak them in everclear then strain the everclear though a coffee filter then separate the everclear from your concentrate then let sit out for a few hours for the rest of the everclear to evaporate. All together it takes a weekend (2 days) most of it is just waiting.
Definitely. Make butter out of all the pucks you save.
i smoke mine with small shatter pieces and kef
Thank you for these videos, New Zealand is having a marijuana law reform on September 2020, If it passes I hope to do this if not only for myself but for others to experience and enjoy.
How did it go in the end?
@@googleemail7369 Referendum for legal cannabis didn't get passed but euthanasia did, how ever we do have Legal Medical Cannabis now, pretty easy and straight forward to get, it's a step in the right direction and allows people that need it the most access to it so that's all that matters.
thx for the layman videos. I've been using leftover pucks for edibles.
Sweet man. I haven’t heard that one yet, what a great idea
tea also
How do you calculate the dosage though?
Dont listen to him, you can smile your rosin chips. I always save em and when I'm low on flower I smoke them and it still gets me a good high!
haha yeah, but does one really want to?
@@Goosegen well I mean, if you're low on weed then it's worth it to just smoke your rosin chips. I always get just as high smokin the chips as I do smoking the regular weed
True enough!👨🏽🌾I think I would rather make edibles out of them tho (decarbed and all) Bless🕊
@@Goosegen yeah, I've made edibles with my chips before. I dont really like doing that because for some reason every time I've had an edible weather it was from a dispensary or homemade, I never get high off them. I even bought two 250mg edibles from a dispensary and me n my brother each ate the full 250 and waited but it never hit us
@@Goosegen we both have IBS and a lot of other stomach problems though, so I think my stomach acid just destroys the THC before it has time to absorb
Yea idk I press my stuff at 190 F for 2 min per 2-3.5 gs at a time and never yield less than 25% usually more and it’s beautifully blonde every time. Different strains produce darker rosins of course but the consistency and color are always the similar. In my opinion anything under 180 F is a bad press.
And I’m using rosin tech
I really appreciate the experiment and you sharing it with us.
Time saver - scrape your yields with a razor blade
Ya brotha!
@Cliff P Not if you're using wax paper, a fresh razor, and an even pressure as you scoop. Then you can scrape it off with another razor or knife to get a clean blob, and scrape it into a silicone container or wherever
@@blakejones6648 easier way. Throw it in the fridge. Pull out in 40Seconds.
Just use a glass dabbed and a frozen burrito.
Nice video man .and what about the flavor and taste is the temperature changes it
That’s a great question. Yes it starts to tastes slightly different, less flavour the darker it is. But because these are so close in temp, it’s pretty similar. Blonde is always the best flavour, but that’s just my opinion and preference! 😎
Rosin Guy to get the blondie color what temperature would you recommend ? Please and thank you sir 👌 I just bought a nugsmasher OG and have been trying different methods but nothing . I’ll really appreciate this please 🙏
Great comparison
Thanks man
does the bud need to go through the cure?
I'd like to have my own setup and I'm not far off but my question is, what should I use for heat? When I look for hot plates all I find is kitchen hot plates. Id appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction
You can search for “heated press plates” and you’ll find it easy. Hope that helps
With the low temp have you tried to double the time to let the oils flow since it's less temp over the same amount of time you would give a high temp press where the oil would flow quicker/easier
The longer you leave it...the darker and crappier it gets. There is a line that I draw for time
I c...I'm getting a rosin pres thanks for this
208 is perfect for 3 min smash comes out gold still and will most likely get very good yield if with right bag and juicyness of the bud
If you were trying to extract rosin from an ounce would it beneficial to use all 20 tons of pressure?
Yes it is worth it using all the pressure
I do
@@rosinguy7794 would you change the tempature for the bigger amount?
Can you use the extra squeezed buds and make edibles with them?? Would it be safe to eat
Totally safe for edibles…just depends on how clean the bud is…like how much spray was used etc
Do you smoke the black hair strands also? j/k looks really nice my friend!
Are there not seed in the flower head? Wouldn't you be getting oil from squashed seeds?
You can squash it with seeds not problem
It doesn’t really change anything at all
Flower can be feminist and w/o seeds in the bud.
were they all the same strain ? i know that if they weren't u may yield different results
common sense would tell you that too bro different strain = diff thc levels which equals different yields and effects
It’s the same strain guys. The point of this video was to show the different results from different temperatures
You can smoke the chips, they are full of resin so you might need to mix with some dry bud
Hey there! i really like the process, i had question what is difference between this thing and canabis oil, i am extracting canabis oil with solvent and then heating process, can you guide me here,
Heat and pressure, solventless.
hello the diff is nothing except that you use a chemical solvent and then purge it off like bho or qwiso you get same sortof end product, but withthis method in thoery you should just have higher purity/quality if done right because it doesnt even touch a solvet for the same yield.
Im too stoned or i see weird faces on those pressed buds at 19:17
They are the souls of the crushed.
I have noticed different presses run at different temps
Exactly...different manufacturers (heated plates mostly) vary in temps
Some you need to squish at 220...some you squish at 175. Different heater cores
Yes
If you have fish or freezer burnt
meat in your freezer your wax
will absorb the taste.
What kind of setup are you
using to press this?
I use a homemade 20 ton press
You the man 🎉
Is rosin a lot smoother than flower? I just started using weed for medical purposes and I cant stand smoking it. Never smoked anything in my life and the taste/smell is awful to me. I don't use edibles as I need instant relief. So I'm looking into rosin/dabs or vaporizing flower.
have you considered oral sprays? They take effect faster. Rosin can be smooth, if vaped at a low temp.. but it sounds like sprays could be a good option for you if you don't like the harshness of inhaling cannabis.
James S I haven’t but I’ll try that thanks. It’s more so the taste I dislike when smoking it. The ash or plant matter, not sure what to call it.
Rosin is not smooth!!!! It’s way stronger then anything else period. Can dab a gram of shatter or wax (made with butane/solvents) but when it comes to dabbing rosin, it’s way way smaller....way way stronger.
This really isn't the best approach for you to use. Try the Magical Butter on Amazon, and make edibles. The edibles take longer to work, but if it's for medical use you would factor that into your schedule. Tons of edible vids on RUclips.
Do u curate ur final product?
Yo what if you individually pressed like 20 grams (no heat), stacked them on top of each other, put a filter the size as the weed patty below them, and then used some kind of wrap to enclose it.. would it smoke?
Think u need heat to cook the trichomes which in turn will ozes out this liquid gold..
I dnt kno
I don’t think so
Sorry for the late reply, I’m just getting my channel going again. I’m making lots of new content…stay tuned!
Your a true g for taking the time to type this out 💯
Sorry, but just to be clear if you cold press flower you keep more of the terps but get a less yeild amount? Assuming im pressing it at a regular temperature
That is correct 👍
Cool video man! - Thanks for sharing your research! :D
Thanks homie
@@rosinguy7794 Hell yeah - it's nice to see someone break it down with the temps as well as explaining very clearly - Awesome work - thank you again!
Great work my friend
Do you prefer to extract herbs without a bag? Do you use bag or no bag the most? Thanks for the video! Gave me inspiration to get a nugsmasher mini and start producing my own rosin!
Bag is better for me because it’s cleaner, but I’ve done it lots without a bag and it’s just as potent and yummy!
Cool post.Now,after i go find a frickin temperature conversion chart, i,ll do the math,and some tests.Thanks
My rosin lately been coming out so hard to scoop off parchment I’ve done it before no issues but lately last few times so hard it’s cured bud pressing 80-93 Celsius used frozen plates everything why is it doing this?
lots of things will change that, like how its stored, how long ago it was dried, how moist it might be, and other factors. if i had to guess, i would say its probably just the weed being older or something
great video. dank you. cheers
what would happen if its not dried ... why does it need to be dried?
It’s doesn’t work wet
It bursts the parchment paper and mostly just water comes out
Nah, it works that's how you get live rosin. You need to freeze fresh bud and squish, yes water will come out but oil and water don't mix so most of it seperates on the parchment, it will have to cure a bit longer but I got purpl/blonde live rosin that tasted amazing. It sizzles during the press but that's the water cooking off, it's a bit messier and not my preference I will admit but it DOES work.
@@Mulletforhire
I would like to see a video of someone squishing live flower.. if u have one post it...✌👍
@@GunHikeAdventure9866 next time I have a chance too I will do that.
@@Mulletforhire
OK cool, I'll check back with you and watch that. Thanks.
I press the 1st press on 200 and the 2nd press at 210. The higher temps tend to have a darker tint and more yield with stable consistency. Lower temps have less yield but the flavor is unappareled and the color is blondish whether budder or shatter. Nice vid tho bro! I got a nugsmasher og .Go lazy ! Lol
Ricky Li I would recommend doing a first press at 180 then go about your second two at the temps that you usually are
Ya lower is my total preference
And it’s stronger
So can I press at say 70 c and then stack pucks and press again at like 90c to get evry last drop?
yep
Yes you can
I'm waiting on my press to be delivered this week and I MUST sayi learned so much from this video! I have watched a shit ton of vids in an attempt to prepare for my first press but this video gave me so much info. I think you saved me for real cause I was planning on pressing at 200°F from the other vids I've watched😂🤣😂 I will probably do the third temp because I dont have a lot of access to a lot of bud and my first press I think I'm only gonna do about 10 grams. Fingers crossed I can get 20%! 2 grams would be awesome! Thanks again for the video! I literally feel like I got everything I need to know from this one vid!
Thanks for the compliment
Let me know how you do bro!
Thanks for the examples
What is the time from the 60° /70°/80°
Love your machine great job :)
Did the last press you did decarb the end product ?
The rosin you see come out is mostly all decarbed unless it’s fairly fresh and sticky
Nice you ever consume it without baking it. I like making capsules and stuff like that
Ya you don’t need to bake it at all. Yes I’ve consumed it as is :)
@@rosinguy7794 nice I def need to buy a press. Itll million times cheaper then buying decarbed concentrates for 60 a gram when I I can just press out a couple nugs 🤣🤣Thanks.
Anytime brother
Tips on getting a butter consistency? I always seem to have either really dark or a almost golden color but it's always so much like a gum instead of it breaking easily to take a dab.
After I press my rosin I usually leave it in my car or in the sun for a few hours , then it turns into a nice crumble that's easy to dab 🤘
@@jorgetavarez2877 do I leave the lid on or off my storage container when doing either of those things?
@@MrPINYPONG you could do either or ("
I just keep mine in parchment paper, leave it in the sun, wait a few hrs, and use a dab tool to whip/mix the wax in a circular motion. This will give you a batter consistency. If u keep repeating this , it'll eventually turn into crumble. 🤘 hope this helps.
Tips are to use freshly dried bud (not 6 months old) and to use lots of pressure for a short period of time.
Sorry for the late reply, I’m just getting my channel going again. I’m making lots of new content…stay tuned!
I make butter with all my flat pressed flower. Butter is so potent use coconut oil for best return of THC. You do not have to decarboxylate it just low heat for 3hrs then filter out oil from pucks
can anyone please answer my question what if i run out of parchment paper or don’t have any what can i use instead
There’s special clear paper, besides that parchment paper is cheap man just get it.
Silicon
Stop what your doing and run to the grocery store and get a roll of parchment. It’s the best solution. You can use tinfoil if you need a quick backup
What was your time and temp recommendation
I think it’s all said in the Audio…and I pressed it for about a minute if I remember.
Sorry for the late reply, I’m just getting my channel going again. I’m making lots of new content…stay tuned!
Great video thanx for info freind cheers eh form Huntsville Ontario Canada got to try this
Cheers man let me know how ya do
What paper are u using to press I just bought my first press Nd don’t no what wax paper to use
Parchment paper bro!!! Any kind
Where did you get the heating elements or the heat plates that you are using with your press?
I had them made for me
I’m new at pressing I’m pressing at 190 and it’s steaming I’m sure it is too hot possibly is 170 recommend
190 is definitely not too hot
You just have to go into it slow but then gradually all the way…and not for too long.
Colder presses can work wonders for certain strains, so try the lower and see how it comes out :)
I’ve gone to 165 in some kinds, but normally 180-185 ish is the sweet spot
If it's steaming, are you in a cold garage or is the flower soaking wet? If not your temp might be way hotter than it's actually saying because I've never had steam. Even if I wanted to go to 220 it wouldn't be steaming.
On that hot temp squish, your press sounds like an mg42.
Hot temp? What do you squish at
Nice where can I get the press???
I can hook you up
How long do you hydrate the bud before you press? Great informative videos, I just put together a 10 ton Rosin press and just starting out.
Nice bro!!!
Just use dry bud and your good to go
@Blue Dragon So, here's my experience so far, I use Boveda 62% humidity packs to hydrate. Depending on the consistency you like (oil/buttery) I find the higher my temp, the more oily...the lower the temp the more buttery...I average around 190 t0 205 for my strains.
Nooo hydrate your bud b4 you press bc when you press dry bud the bud immediately soaks up some of still hot rosin like a sponge as soon as you release the pressure.
I read a comment from a Rosin Guy video that said to dip one bud at a time in water (I use warm water) and the press. I tried it and it definitely worked. I got more out of the puck that had been dipped than the one that didnt.
hi, would you use the pressed bud to infuse butter? just to add on on the trim? maybe they could stil have some thc that the butter could absorb, have you tried it?
Yes it is completely loaded with thc still
Making edibles from it makes a lot of sense
@@rosinguy7794 thank you :) :)
thanks 🔥🔥
My oil seems to seep into my parchment paper, any suggestions?
Jonathan Hernandez maybe you’re doing it too hot
That happens sometimes with too much moisture in the bud
Try and dry it more

I just pressed some jungle boys wifi mintz. It was my first press ever. I’m preety happy with the result except it came out a little darker than I hoped for. I pressed it at 207 for 120 seconds. Any tips to get a more golden color ? Maybe I pressed it to hot ?
Ya bro…I definitely would do the same thing but lower the temp to about 190…maybe even 180. It really depends on the strain and how fresh it is vs super dry and old etc.
Hope it helps man. Let me know! I’m back at making more content now. Much more to come 😎
@@rosinguy7794 I just pressed some 710 labs at 195 and the color and consistency is so much better. Came out a golden brown and it’s more of a butter.
