?? I previously tried the following but is it worth it?
I thought the "flow" might be better IF the puck started at a temp closer to the
pressing temp, with the entire puck at this uniform temp. Then, with less
temp increase needed, the pressing works better. With this pre-heat, the center of the
puck would be up to pressing temp quicker as it starts half way there
- I pre-pressed a puck, left it in the metal pre-press, put that in a sealed baggie and placed in sous vide
water at 140 F. After 20 minutes, removed 140 F puck onto parchment and squished.
I thought this might help entire puck get up to 210 F quicker when pressing and maybe make for better flow
from the center (which has the longest way to migrate).
Thoughts?
gotta give the resin heads a second to melt and flow through the plant material. It's really a fairly gentle process once you start seeing how little pressure it takes to start flowing.
