Okay, from what all of you said, I'll stick with larger paper, prolly the 5 x 5 in. Thanks so much for your help! And if anyone knows of a thread a "Press beginner" could learn a lot on, I'm all ears! Thanks again to all of you!
I have no idea how to do it with the juicebox, I've seen some posts on reddit with great results with it, but I'm not sure how. Here's my tech when I had my old 4T nugsmasher:
"185 f avg temp, I never go up to 200, no need, lipds are all melted by 174f. Might be tough with the juice box to keep it that low.
-Bottle tech style filtering is recommended. Vertical bag style.
-Start by just bringing the plates down to slight pressure holding the puck in place and wait 30 seconds.
-Then add pressure until you feel it push back on you, don't force it. Wait 30 seconds.
-Now pressure again until you feel it push back, stop. Wait 30 seconds.
-Repeat this until you are at max pressure, then hold it for 30 seconds to 1 min. Then for the last 10 seconds slam it down.
This prevents blowouts, allows you to press 6 grams with only 4T pressure, and get the best color wax you'll ever see. "
I'm not sure I should be linking other sites but we discuss it all here:
