So what would you say your range is so far (least amount of torch vs. longest amount of torch time)?I am finally seeing this correlation and have been able to manipulate my results. Heat a bit more for bigger yeilds, a bit less heat for more terpy rosin.
I feel like I am getting close to the sweet spot through consistent variables every time, everything the same.
What comes out of the backend of a slug33 is wonderful indeed.
Yes, i've been there too! Or the opposite and had it running out mid press.. Slug.33 owners learn rather quickly to keep the torch topped off. You'll also find that ambient temps matter quit a bit as well. You will soon be a master. Like, in a day or so. lol1:10 and I heat at the back. The forge uses the heat to force the rosin away from the heat...if you heat at the front it seems to work against the design.
I had the most humongous press and it was the last one I did. It was bigger than anything else previously. I think the reason for this change is I just refilled my torch and it was much more powerful than usual, I turned it down when I realized is and just said fuck it...I will do the best I can and the amount was spectacular. I do not want to say over 30% because it makes a person sound like an ass. So all I will say is I was shocked and very pleased.
Now I just need to try to remember exactly what I did. Lmao.
The Original SLug.33 single gram is 1 gram.
No problem. It's my pleasure. I love the shit out of my Slug.33! It's a shitload of fun and it produces wonderful rosin. Its always good to hear from fellow owners and their experiences.Damn so much to learn because waste is painful. You are an awesome teacher. I was thinking about you today and realized you are asking us to do science. All we need to do is precisely duplicate the experiments (with a few tips). You have done a great job getting people started.
So do you heat the top, middle, or bottom of the very back? (Sorry, trying to eliminate variables!)1:10 and I heat at the back. The forge uses the heat to force the rosin away from the heat...if you heat at the front it seems to work against the design.

Thank you! So you keep the spacer near the forge? In your one video you mention keeping it away to see if rosin comes out the back. Does it help with heat distribution somehow?
Thanks Dr. much appreciated.So much love here, and i can only second that dealing with @Nattybushdoctor was a real pleasure in a way which is quite rare and i hope that i played a very small part in getting him to participate so steady on FC and appreciating this community.
These days i have sooo little time to play around that i have to live through all your posts here but i had made a new really nice backplate for my slug / vice and hope to go to training a bit more this weekend.
One thing i d like to mention: while the slug is nice where ever you are, but beeing in europe where access to concentrates is between rare and non existant it shows its value even better. Solventless safe concentrates for everybody
EDIT: @steama i d love to take a look how the bag you posted looks filled ;-)
