I am new to pressing rosin and I have a question.
When I press bud or bubble hash i get one of 3 outcomes ...
Shatter, live resin or a liquid oil that gets stuck to the paper.
What do I call the rosin that is liquid and VERY sticky at room temp. ?

The sticky very viscous stuff I just call concentrate. It’s usually sold here in syringes. Usually they have to be warmed to get the concentrates out of the syringes.

I’ve noticed when I overheat the concentrate it get stuck to the wax paper and becomes useless. Maybe an excess of heat is affecting how your stuff is formed? I don’t even know if you deal with heat. Sorry, just trying to be helpful.

I have been doing some experiments with different temps and times.
I did a 7 gram puck of bud at 190 f (vrs 215) and got 14% but it took 3 presses.
It was 90% less sticky. I used frozen ceramic plates to clean up all the sticky stuff.
Anything that is cold and flat works as a cold plate. Even a chainsaw bar ...
I think getting 14% from $75 a lb small buds means my system is rocking !
