@Pimp T @CBDEMON @Lazerus00 I was just going through the new high times and found this. If u want some directions for rosin buy the new high times.
Glad u started this though. I've never been big on dabs. I'm not that old just about 40 but I'm a flower or hash guy. But this is such a clean technique I can't wait to get home from work tonight. Lol. 1 question can I just put it in a bowl or bong. It's really the only way I smoke. Or could I lace a joint with it? Also is this equal in strength to an actual dab or is it on the hash strength lvl? Like 1 hit done. Keep in mind I don't smoke much.Thats pretty awesome! Just also try to add your material to some sort of filter, it looks like they didn't put that in the pictures of the process
@cbddemon but does quality make a difference because like I said I took some local bullshit and tried and got nothing..
I think the better quality bud or hash/kief the better quality rossin for sure...there is a guy on IG that seems legit and pretty cool from Portland, Maine and I'm pretty sure he runs a dispensary or something...anyway he got a huge T-shirt press to make rosin...It looks FUCKING AWESOME!!! He ends up with these big slabs of rosin and its freaking rad! He is also real cool with answering questions...his IG name is Portcityrelief...jut saying@cbddemon but does quality make a difference because like I said I took some local bullshit and tried and got nothing..
So I apologize for being a dumbo but what do I need besides the paper. Is a coffe filter enough? And do I just fold the filter in half over the weed and press on the hair thing. How much can I use. And last u said it should be not fully dry. So if I have some moist greasy nugs that aren't dry enough would those be the ones to use? Thanks ahead of time bro.Yeah, higher quality starting material will always make a nicer end product. Some of the stuff made from high end starting material is absolutely clear like a super thin sheet of swiss cheese-holed ice. What I meant was that even lower quality stuff should be rosinable. I like the idea of trash to stash when the yield is already expected to be low (7-10%)
Alright, so it looks like it works with dry but uncured flowers:). Even better yield with hash. Here's what I did.
Parchment paper (important: NOT WAX PAPER) folded in half

Make a little crevasse in the center with your finger

Put flower in the divot

get the flower in a ball in the center and twist up the outer edges while trying to minimize folds in filter

put balled flower in filter into the folded parchment

Press with straightener on LOW for 6-7 seconds or until you start hearing it sizzle. may need to press again another 5 or so seconds if material isn't fully processed dried and cured

Scrape up the oil that condenses and put on a clean parchment. Your solventless hash oil is now ready to smoke/dab/eat

If there are more questions I'm happy to answer em to the best of my ability:) Hope it helped you visualize the process better!
Oh and not sure if you mentioned but ive heard from a few ppl you don't really wanna use a bigger bud then like .5gsBTW the filter is definitely worth using! You're gonna want to use one to avoid contaminants like dried leaf and pistils in the oil
