No, I was just thinking you could get it all in one place in the middle if you broke it up.
No, I was just thinking you could get it all in one place in the middle if you broke it up.Just big nugs to popcorn size mainly to remove stems but never like with a grinder or anything have you?
I'm useing the 3x5 low temps with a 20 ton press have you seen the multiple plate set up for 1 20 ton ram?there super expensive tho like 3 or 4 grand or something? Do you feel the 3x 4 plates are better than the 5x7?I can do 1 squish on a 3g nug and get everything out with 1 press. 2o ton and 5x7 plates ftmfw. I did go back to 3x5 plates.
I've been useing parchment paperAnyone use ptfe paper vs parchment?
Ptfe is a huge cost vs parchment.
I always use parchment paper it seems to rip through the parchment and scratch the plates with metal screens half the timeI put parchment over my plates might help with your scratches. I agree also if pressing buds, you only need parchment.
You might be able to get more seriously try it before you knock it... I really think nuggets being able to expand outwards creates loss to the nug itself and I'm sure you will lose some to the bag as well but I'm thinking multiple nuggets will squeeze more oil with a bag cuz the bag can only hold so much oil so less loss to nuggets cuz there not expanding and only so much to the bag which becomes minimal with the factor of there being a bunch of buds squeezing at once compared to the loss to the nug itself without the bag it's really a residual loss threshold thing the bag can only soak up so muchI can do 1 squish on a 3g nug and get everything out with 1 press. 2o ton and 5x7 plates ftmfw. I did go back to 3x5 plates.
I mean my way you get more of it the first press and less when I repress multiple teabags stacked on each other seems to work well for me as I got a 25% total if you don't repress you should try it at slightly higher temps you will def get more oil that's a lower grade but I want to leave as little waste as I can to keep my percentages as high as possibleHate this autocorrect crap
Minus not minuet
Can = cant
If I press something at a lower temp it's definitely the way to go but not repressing at a higher temp is just wasteful .....and if you pressed 2 separate bags one time one at a low temp and one at a higher temp you deft get more of a yield at a higher temp ....repressing at a higher temp is for getting what you left behind only not for bragging rights the bragging rights stuff is with the first low temp press which doesn't give you your total possible yield....More heat = less flavor but more stable
Less heat = more flavor, but less stable.
I've used both 3x5 and 5x7. Both with the same kief from the same teim, same baggies, same temps (both 225 and 220). Yeilds are the same, quality is different. I've got my tek down solid, like my grows, iso and qwet washes, bubble hash making, tinctures, salves, topical rubs making.
Only think I've yet to dial in or even do is blasting bho.
Fuck bho I hope that industry dies I wanna look in to short path distillation for my next endeavors as I can take all this second press stuff and run it through that and end up with some thc isolates that look fire coloredMore heat = less flavor but more stable

I'm with it I will definitely do that after i repressAll my old used pressed baggies and flower pucks go into my iso wash half gal jars. I'm stingy. If I spend money growing it, I want every g I can get out of it.
