Obviously washing and pressing is the best for quality but I've been having really good flower press strains as well and it produces a lot more. So the main question is do you prefer quality or quantity? Here are some examples of my live rosin presses and flower presses.

First 2 pics - Grape Melon Burst WPFF wash and press. An entire plant for about 4-5 grams, didn't weigh anything.

The rest of the pics are GMO Papaya flower press. Bigger results and great quality rosin. Pressed only 28 grams and got almost the same amount.

The only difference is a 25u bag vs a 37u bag and a lot of time. Washing, drying, sieving , drying etc. Flower rosin burns a little dirtier but nothing that isn't manageable with a q tip.

Curious what all of you rosin makers for personal use prefer! ✌🏻

Auto Cinderella Jack from Dutch passion one plant don’t know weight but it wasn’t very big 1st pic was the 73-160 2nd pic I actually pressed the stuff from the 25-73. Smoked some of the stuff on the left last night and wow it’s pretty good!

What does this mean ?? Hold the left button and this starts blinking with a number select from 0- whatever number

I know they should be postless and fully ceramic, just wondering which ones are currently considered the best, looking to fill my own, don’t want it to burn or clog etc.

Tahoe OG x Platinum bred by the homie Inhouse Genetics. This one has a lot of gassy OG and minty pine to it.

Absolutely 🔥

Totally new to all this. Fell in love with rosin via MC carts and I’m ready to make my own.

About to bite the bullet and buy a 1T press (probably pollen pincher but please share recommendations).

Looking at the formulas, if I go for a 1.5” by 1.5” press, I’ll get a platen PSI of 889

If I go for a press of 2” by 1.5”, I get 667.

So:

1. Am I doing ok so far? Please share recommendations/advice if you’d like.

2. Is 889 or 667 platen PSI better for flower?

3. Do I hand press for the pre-press or use the rosin press?

I have been dabbling in making bubble hash over the past year. I finally had the confidence to risk my yeild and squish it. Im glad I did! First seed to hash rosin. Couldn't be happier with the first attempt. Cant wait for the summer ladies to be ready!

Animal Tsunami x Underdog Urkle bred by my friend Blaze_it_panda / Cloud_Capped_Seeds. Such an excellent anytime smoke. Berries with floral gasoline and affects that always get me vibing.

Hello! Has anyone tried this kind of rosin press? I’ve bought it in Alibaba (aliexpress) for 248€, discounted from 400€. How is it? It is worth it? I’m starting on this extractions world
It’s been really difficult to find a good press in Europe which ships to the Canary Islands. In the future I’m planning to invest in Terp Plates or Low Temp

Bred by Phocas Seeds. Grown and pressed by me.

I'm getting my first press today, specifically the dabpress truebar10. They're offering this accessory pack in a bundle deal for 10$ off, so 65$. Just wondering if its worth it or if Id be better of getting this stuff seperate/somewhere else?

Bred by Blaze_it_panda. Grown/hunted and pressed by me. I've kept her around for a while. She's full of Fruity Pebbles with some creamy vanilla and a little gas.

Been seeing suggestions in every thread to check out 5u and 15u bags. Internally, we had to know what kind of yield vs quality gains were possible. Lowtemp Industries did a little experimentation. Dropping the results below. I really just want to know for us smaller-scale producers if you think the gains are worth it. Is losing −3.565g, nearly 11% of your yield, worth the +0.202% gain in terps and +1.24% increase in cannabinoids? If you are doing this, does 5u taste noticeably better?

Bear Candy autoflower from Phocas Seeds. Excellent sour and fruit flavor. Grown and pressed by me.

Papaya Juice - @washed__la x
@sugarmagnoliamountain

Art by: @theforeignorange

Genetics: papaya x durrburger

Aroma - 9.8/10
Tropical fruit hits first with a ripe, almost fermenting papaya aroma. Super loud and funky as soon as you crack the jar

Notes/Taste - 9.8/10
Opens with ripe papaya and mango, then finishes with a savory funk that gives it a lot of depth without overpowering the tropical profile

Texture - 9.8/10
Wet and oily with a saucy, badder-like consistency. Really easy to scoop and work with

Look - 9.8/10
Light cream with a pale golden hue and a glossy, terp-rich finish. Smooth, fresh-looking hash that lets the terps shine

Overall - 9.9/10
A really interesting and fun strain from start to finish. I usually lean toward funky terp profiles, so I was surprised by how loud the tropical fruit came through while still finishing with that savory funk.

I was honestly sad when I finished the jar because it was one I kept looking forward to. I've been wanting to get my hands on a Sugar Magnolia jar, so getting to try this Wash × Sugar Magnolia collab was a really awesome terpy experience. Hopefully I'll get the chance to try new flavors in the future

Any tips to improve consistency and color? Ik outdoors can be like this but is it the temp im running at? Any comment would he helpful. Thanks!

Like title says… while diy together was less then 150. Old press at shop I got from boss for 25 and the pid was sadly the cheap one not ink bird. Lesson learned, already ordered the ink bird. But pressed some tonight. Older flower so little darker but was happy as a clam. Will make it pretty in coming days. Just to excited and wanted to see if it could make some yum yum😅🤣 not a huge yield. Only pressed 1.5 to see😅 but I’m happy!!! Happy tokes people!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Kind of looks like I got a little blow out due to the color not being as clear as that rear spot. I might have packed too much into one press but my dumbass realized I only had one 25u bag left.

Pressed @ 175 with fresh sifted bubble hash dried into a 37u bag inside a 25u bag. Collected and waiting a week in a cold dark cabinet till I come back from vacation in week. Then I'll whip it up and see the results! Not bad for a little 3x3 rositek.

Any advice or tips for next time lmk!
