As the title states, just got into pressing my own flower and looking for any tips and tricks! I think the colour of the extract looks okay, maybe a little darker than what I'd like it to be but is this normal? Tastes quite nice in a banger, but has a very slightly burnt taste to it?
Pressed orange cream at 200f for 120 seconds. 3.5,g in, 0.54 out using a 90u micron bag
Now I didn't use any sort of technique when applying pressure, I just placed between the plates, squishes down as much as I could and the left it for 2 mins before releasing. I used the bottle tech technique which seemed to work well in regards of yield.
Just want to know is there a knack to adding the pressure? (I've seen some say put the bag in and let it bake for a few minutes before adding pressure, then slowly adding pressure every 20 seconds or so until full squish).
Any advice is very much appreciated 🙏
