@psychonaut Sup with this 7x7 press on the website? Got me salivating.

You can do directional folding with “brick” pucks, which looks cool and has some benefits, but the yield on the first press is usually noticeably better with bottle tech (for flower). What brand bags are you using? Some brands are supposedly more prone to failure during bottle tech than others...

Thanks dp, for a great set of plates. I like to go around 165F for pressing most of my strains (or 205F hot press for yield testing in sample batches). I preheat 30sec (10 for my hot press testing) then I slowly ramp to full pressure over the course of 4minutes 20seconds (more like 0:45-1:30...

Can I ask more about the glass jar? Is it a plastic top? Does it have a cardboard “gasket” glued in it?

Some things can be more harmed by heat or by oxygen than others, no doubt. I truly hadn’t even thought of the hash stuff; microplaned or melted bubble, naturally greasy cultivars, there’s certainly possibility for quick degradation, or at least a consistency change. I think the 3 factors you...

Explain how jar tech works. @Roth you too.

FWIW, I saw a similar post on reddit with a pic, white stuff at the edge of the nylon bag being used for filtration (inside and outside of the bag). The consensus was that thc-a can occasionally be separated out in a single pass, rather than pressing into rosin, then pressing the rosin.

If you’re actually concerned about degradation at the 1 week mark in a room temp environment, you are either a mass spectrometer, or your storage area isn’t actually room temp (most of the world calls room temp about 60F to 75F, some places even up close to 85F).

Ok, if it’s a fabrication powder that’s simple enough to remedy.

Need a use for my broken aero press, was hoping you were onto something

For a slab of pretty stable oil, I say parchment and then into a freezer bag. Then put it on your table, in the fridge, in the freezer, w/e. The less stable it is, the colder you should go IMO. I’d put a bit by your rig and the rest in the fridge or freezer. When you need to refill, just bring...

Woulda loved to hear more success from the oil-press-o, lol.

I was really displeased with my amazon purchases in the past, even got some counterfeit oil slicks :( Anyway, there’s a bunch of options, each with their own caveats; nothings perfect. Guess you gotta give the people what they want. I keep it humble with the paper so when you unwrap your...

They also sell clear FEP, totally clear and more nonstick than PTFE (so they say). Looks fly. Same issue as the other containers... $$$

Edit: I should be specific about ditching the cups, not the base material. It’s business advice. The cheap silicone cups provide no advantage over the paper and cost more. Quality paper is cheap and can be acquired as needed at local stores. If you want quality cups, they can be sourced...

I know I saw some sort of deal on the Dake b-10 mentioned around Xmas, but I’m having a hell of a time finding it. It was priced around 400 w/ free shipping and there was a coupon or discount code floating around. Anyone know where to point me?

Hot tip: ditch the silicone, only use glass for sauce jars, invest in good parchment for wax and shatter (you need it for pressing, anyway). Food grade silicone breaks down over long term exposure to solvents, including terpenes. Glass is a pain to get that last little bit out of. Save...

It should be much more difficult to get hot spots in your average load, from what I understand. None of my units have turbulator, but the difference seems to be subtle for the users that have it; it's not making something new happen, it's just heating the load more consistently and keeping the...

Gonna keep myself in a haze via this Dela Haze flower and shatter double-down :science: See you guys on Mars :freak:

@GetLeft I agree about the learning curve. The only thing I've modded from the stock config is to move my stem's screen closer to the heater (shrinking the bowl depth to about 4mm instead of the cm depth Ryan provided me, knowing I'm a heavy consumer). I pack with hand-torn nug, and I stuff...
