Rosin Technique....Easy DIY Solventless

[666Honeybadger]

Not sure if this is the right thread for this, if not: please correct (or report) me...

I'm interested in buying a press but not sure where to get one in EU as options seem limited (or possibly i'm looking in the wrong places)?

Also have to admit that i have no knowledge whatsoever on the subject of presses (i just would like one to experiment with) so bare with me if what i am about to link here makes you laugh uncontrollably...
I just stumbled upon this (which seems to ship from EU) so i wondered if this would be a decent starting point or if it is to be avoided.
Somehow it looks a bit too much like a toy to me (all the colors, not only in pink) but that might be because of my ignorance on the subject:

Any advice is welcome!
If anyone has a better option for a EU purchase i would love to hear it!

Edit: wow, i found that same LTQ on another site for 259,- instead of the 390,- on the other site (that claims it was discounted from 459,-)
That is some serious price-magic right here... LoL
I guess i already know that i am better to avoid that specific model...
Trust? Gone, like a train!
That's some dodgy shit... Anyway, still in the market for a suggestion of a good buy

I edited my previous post while you were answering. My option does seem a bit wonky after looking a bit better into it!

Oooh!! Thank you very much.
From Belgium?? LoL! That's magic!!!
(i guess my search wasn't the best after all )
There so many options on that site, amazing! Any advice on what would be a good starting point?
Don't want to end up buying something that i'll outgrow too fast so If out of budget i think i prefer to save up some more first so i have a unit that i'll enjoy for a longer time.

Thanks again for enlightening my stoned brain guys!

@666Honeybadger ive had this exact one for over 3 years and it’s perfect for 14g flower squishes or 10g bubble hash squishes in fact I just went through a monster 5 hour press session where I pressed 300 grams of last years bubble in 30 10g bags and got 100g of rosin back!!

I was going to suggest graveda too. Mine is pretty nice still, there is a thread for them here. But if dabpress has it's eu warehouse back up and running it's a no brainer... I like having the guage, it was especially useful while I was learning the basics. It's not necessary though. I do wish I had drip Tek with mine so that's worth considering, that's where you rotate the machine so that the rosin can drip out of the plates and away from the heat.

I have the 10t with a separate pump and gauge. I can press from 1g to 50g (usually 10g of bud) and could not recommend it highly enough. It will probably outlast me...here is a 25.4% return from my last press, I had a little blowout but only a few crumbs escaped,

More info here, lots of happy customers,

Dabpress Rosin Plates

@somerandomguy1 Are you sure it has oil? If a bottle jack is shipped on it's side, sometimes it will leak out the oil. If you are sure it has oil, very often bottle jacks have 1 or 2 screws at the base near the pump action that adjust the flow in and out. They need to be balanced or the jack...

I must be daft or something but i can't find that EU shipping option on that site tbh...

On the shipping page i find this (note the last sentence):

Delivery Area:
U.S. Shipping Address Only - Only for American address
Canada Shipping Address Only - Only for Canadian address

1. Shipped from Amazon or our own warehouse.
2. No import duties required
3. Expedited Shipping from Amazon US warehouse
4. 2 days handling time.
5. 3-7 Business day delivered.

Tips:

• China factory warehouse only fulfills orders from countries where we have not built a local warehouse yet or products are out of stock in local warehouse.
• Please do not choose cross-country warehouse to fulfill your order.
• We apologies that we are unable to ship your order from other warehouse. So please do not buy products which are not available in your local country warehouse.
• Due to Covid-19, we have to stop shipping order from our Belgium warehouse for European orders.

So i'm not sure if what i see is accurate since covid-19 isn't that big of an issue anymore (!)?
I wonder where your quote came from?
Am i on the wrong site? Is there a EU site that i'm not finding?

are you working for them or something? I swear people say dabpress is the best, these guys have been straight up lying for 3 years about shipping to EU, on their FAQ they still say they ship to EU, when you type "dabpress EU" on a search engine it's their blog article that comes first with the title "Rosin Presses Ships to Europe, Mexico, Canada, UK ..." in reality only the US warehouse is available

I just found an email from May 2021

"Thanks for reaching out.
Our products will be available in EU warehouse 3 months later, which items do you want to buy?" <- wrong

another from Feb 2022

"Thanks for reaching out,

We are truly sorry that due to the high freight cost, we can’t confirm the specific available time in Europe for the time being. Could you please tell me which products do you interested in?

We will keep you informed once it is available"

and then 6 months later when I ask again

"Sorry for the late reply,

We are really can't confirm the specific available time in Europe at the moment."

I was wondering if anyone had the opportunity to try this press, I would like to take a press to enter the world of concentrates, they are not available here and the only way would be to make them directly at home, I have no experience in this regard other than some videos on YouTube

I built a press with a clamp and a hair straightener but the return is too little and honestly it's not worth it even if I have to admit that the flavor was great

Going back to the press, it certainly depends on the material used, but in general when is it considered a good return? I would be the guy who presses a few grams at a time 5/10g maximum so I don't need a lot of t or am I wrong?

I like over 20% return as a rule (rarely over 25% for me) but have had one strain only return 7-8% even though the buds were nice...the rosin was great though, just needed a lot of bud to make a decent amount of rosin.
