What screen sizes did you use when you washed the cannabis? How did you dry the hash after?

Imo that's just bubble hash...shits better on a bowl or in a j

Dabbing it is a chore, rosin is what you want....but idk why your rosin ain't working

I think you want to press your rosin around 185° F. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong. I believe that is the temperature some terps start to cook off, so you basically want to go right to that limit not over...or you start losing taste.

So I press flower starting at 180 - kief I’d start 170 and see ? Every strain is different start with a small sample perfect your process then let it rip

Thanks for the replies everyone, I'm going to guess I need work on the pressing the hash part maybe I'm still applying pressure too soon I tried to go much slower this time but perhaps I'm pushing the hash into and past the plates not achieving a full rosin? Here's a few pix of it pulled up most the way, burns GREAT Ina bowl I'm stupid stoned on a pinch ...

I used Ipower hash bags off ammy and really only used like 3 of the filters ( 220 170 25) since I'm just mixing it all and pressing it..... just thought it would be so much easier after pressing a pound plus of flower via the press and learning the ropes there

I don’t do much hash pressing in my dab press so I don’t have much info for you but flier I do like say 3 grams - temp 180 ish come down with very little pressure- let heat up for 20/30 seconds bring pressure up and hold at temp for about 60/90 seconds

I have the same temp unit you have? Do you have a DabPress?

Yes the caged version 4x7 I think
Mine is some cast iron thing that weighs way more than it should. I think it's a similar plate size. The controller unit isn't attached to anything on mine. Sits on the side of it.

Wish I had one. How long does fresh frozen last in the freezer...I was thinking about just leaving a plant in there and when I have company just press out a quick dab session of frozen live rosin lol....if thats viable...is there a time limit? Is it just a flash freeze? Curious to know

I was one those old qwiso wizards 12 or 13 years ago....I need something cleaner for the 2023 lol

I just picked up a 7 ton Dulytek for $50 off OfferUp the other day. Pretty stoked about it.

If it’s any consolation I had some fresh frozen hash I pressed last night. It sucked. I also didn’t like it when it was in hash form. So I suppose the ol’ garbage in garbage out is true. My flower rosin is turning out great.


For those looking into buying a press; I’ll sum up my research for you. If your pressing personal amounts under 14grams then a 4 ton press is probably going to be good. The 6 ton dabpress is the one I really wanted. Allows for a little more wear and tear. Once a month dabpress sells used/refurbs and you can throw a discount on top of it. That’s the best bang for the buck.
