That's a good idea! I ordered some thin ss foil and will try it. Will put a crease to catch the drip.
Natty Is there any technical reason why this wouldn't work?
Thank's again guys.

How much did a decent size piece of PTFE run you?

@Bandoo Any luck with the SS foil or you are still waiting for it ?
@steama Well i dont see what can go wrong,you can always cool the foil and collect the splattered rosin. Checkout the Flashvape's driptech press which is kind of what the slug does too,only thing is that they do it without parchment, if it works with bare plates i dont see why should it not work with the slug + foil.

I wonder if the PTFE will create an air tight seal and not let the rosin flow?? We had that problem when we tried to press against silicone.

You should give some aluminum foil a shot then. Afterall there must be some reason why aluminum foil is so popular with people making concentrates. /s
) I dont use concentrates and dont bother with extractions,everything seems like a potential hazard for adding unwanted stuff to my concentrates. Rosin looks cool cause it is solventless but they still need to work around using silicon paper and ptfe ,cause IMO when pressure is applied there is damage and particles are released . I would rather have stainless steel in my stuff rather than PTFE and SILICON .Dont get me wrong i would love to try out the slug33 but i cant justify buying without knowing it can work without the shitty papers.Aluminum foil is the last thing on earth i would use,honestly havent buyed this shit in years,i really hope that you joking that it is popular with the concentrate crowd.
By foil i mean 316/316L stainless foil or plates.

Well i imagine the simple logic of the many people that dont like PTFE is : If it can kill a bird at 200C ,do you want that in your dabs ?
Anyway i think material safety in model specific threads is against the rules so apologies ,for further discussion i suggest using the dedicated thread

Just gave it my first go-round. Had some blow-out there at the end, but I'm 99.9% sure that that's because of the coin I used as the back-piece wasn't flat and smooth. Easy fix!
I saw my USMC coin and was like ! that's perfect! ...didn't really think about just how sharp the anchor might be at the bottom, so that cut through the parchment paper too. I'll fix'is ass tomorrow at work >

The seepage isn't much. Most of the videos you see with the Deuce is without the seepkit.
just make sure its not the 3 inch model the 4.5 incher is what you want.Cooled plates could possibly work very well. I would love to see it in action. Trying out these things addresses a very valid concern for people who wish to avoid silicone and especially PTFE. I do not have concerns for silicone personally but I would stay the hell away from PTFE (teflon).
I was just funnin' with you on the foil...gotta keep the humor/sarcasm alive.

That's cool! i like it. Very happy to hear success!
thanks for posting this.

no, Thank you. It's my pleasure, it really is.

There are many amazing videos that will keep you interested for a good long time.
Yes. I have watched all of the videos i can find on youtube. I want more though! Lmao was just curious to see everyones methods.
Ya i am unaware of my %. By guessing though i would say 25%. Its pretty frosty. I also have it at the 62% humidity level before pressing. Problem is i will get a good squish. 20% then the next time i get 7% then the next 12%... guess I'm having problems getting my routine down. Im thinking I'm doing it the same but must not be. Lol
Oh and yes. More yield i get harder pucks. Less yield they crumble more.
I just cant figure out exactly what I'm doing wrong and what I'm doing right.

For consistent results everything must be the same per cultivar. Same flame size, same exact heat time should give you repeatable results. Heat longer for increased yields, heat for less time for more flavor less yields. 15 seconds + or minus make a big difference! The key is finding that sweet spot, it shouldn't take long.
They can all be used vertically if you have a base to press them on. The Fat Mac our 3.5 gram unit is designed to be used vertically and it comes with the base. Our 5 oz unit the Limax is also a vertical extractor. The .33 and Deuce are best used horizontally in my opinion.
