Drinking from a Cattle Trough

Lemon Tree x Okie- 9.25 weeks from flip. 1st run of this gal and I like the way she grows, easy on nutes and a breeze to trim. Didn’t ever take a test bud so it will be a minute for a taste test

in regards to pressing a flower of that type. would you get more yield from that vs something more compact? for sake of discussion all the weights and rhs would be the same (pressures, bags, heats).

im really wanting to start focusing what i grow to be high yielding when pressing ( and if it really matters in that way) in that a good pressing weed is just that whether its structure.

i was watching a video about foxtailing along with “larfy” buds which that portion doesnt apply here. they were talking about more surface area and that being great for making hash and other concentrates.

If I ever go screen, the Candy Rain is the what I'd aim for..

if I could tell which presses better that takes all the fun out of it

Tell ya what I’ll do though. Just got done flipping this entire grow grow so there’s some free time on the horizon. I’ll press some of everything I have, maybe 5 or 6 strains, and we can have an unofficial press-off

Thanks bro bilber. That candy rain is fast becoming a crowd favorite but for shear crystals white Runtz is perfectly named

Dude im all in! I’ve got some of the rock hard nuggs i think it’s DSGxm86? And then I got some fairly larfy very open type buds (still firm mind you) but it’s got that surface area. I’ll press those two! : )

We go in circles around here when it comes to processing. It was rosin about this time last year, then it was taking the rosin into other products. Year before that was carts, this winter it’s about edibles. The wife says I’m trying to make a “super gummy”, ok I’ll give her that one. It requires RSO to my oil.

Point to all that is, hell I forgot

700 ml extraction from 2 ounces of flower, evaporated down to 21cc

Super gummy! I like the sound of that! : ) if you ask my wife, she’ll tell you I was trying to make a muffin so strong with bud butter, itd knock an elephant out I love your evolution of concentrates, definitely paints a picture of the possibilities. ill have you know, the light bulb once again clicked watching your thread(think timing)

im wanting to try some concentrates using the ever clear route. not quite ready but its coming.

There’s a ton of recipes out there for gummies so try if ya want, or not
JJ’s super gummy’s
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup warm infused oil
1/2 teaspoon lecithin
2 tablespoons gelatin
3oz flavored jello
3cc rso

Turn on oven, 250, insert 2 cup pyrex

Dissolve lecithin in warm water using a whisk

Add oil and RSO blend continuously with whisk. 10 minutes but never boiled and it will be one homogeneous liquid

Add gelatin and jello and whisk for for another 5 minutes. Get warm measuring cup out and strain the sauce. Pour into molds that are on a cookie sheet.

Freeze for 30 minutes

For the math
Oil is based on 50grams per quick of oil at 30%thc
RSO is 2 ounces washed with 700ml Everclear at 30%thc. Evaped down to 21cc. 3cc were used in this batch

When I sober up I’ll do the math, these gummy’s will rip that noggin

Do you have any trouble with the oil separating? I make gummies pretty much the same, but even after drying and curing, the oil just separates out from the gummy every time over a few days. Regardless of using MCT, butter, coconut oil. I've tried coating with caster sugar but even then it just forms a sludge after a while.

What am I doing wrong haha. I've just settled with chocolates or biscuits as they are super easy to make but I do like me a gummy.

Lecithin should keep it together

I use lecithin but I might not be mixing everything properly.

There always seems to be a film of oil on every gummy no matter what I do. It appears as they set and dehydrate every time. Looks good while pouring but by the time they cure there's a film.

Tried mixing for ages, being careful and not getting any froth but it still persists. Not sure how much lecithin you can add before shit goes south but I've tried 5-7.5ml soy lecithin per 3tbsp gelatin and 3oz jello (same amount water and oil as above) but I just can't seem to get the oil to stay in the gummies for the life of me lol.

I use a single tea spoon for the whole batch and I use soy lecithin.250g of butter goes in to make the butter how much comes out I can't remember but a single tea spoon for all of it.and juice is around 1 glass for gelatin

I've definitely had that to happen. My problem was I hadn't learned how to deal with the lecithin, sounds similar to your experience. That very first step of adding the 1/2 teaspon of lecithin to the warm water. Your not going to get oil and water to form a mechanical bond without it. Then give them time to form that bond over low heat and continuous agitation before adding in the gellatin. Hope that helps

Cheers. Sounds about right. I'm not being very vigorous with the initial mixing of the lecithin and water at all. I'm using liquid lecithin too which is like tar/glue. I have seen powdered down the road. Might give it a try as well and see if it makes any difference.

Mine smells like cake and tastes like alcohol liquor
