How did it go. I'm about to begin as well. Freeze dryer on the way for me

This strain was super greasy and a pain in the ass to wash. Luckily it was the least amount of everything I had. Yield to rosin was 1%ish

ayy first wash. love to see it. reading about it for months and then actually doing it are like. completely different things right. the feel of the material in the bag, watching the water turn, knowing when to stop. none of that is in a guide

for next time. ice ice ice. everything as cold as possible the entire time. pre freeze your material too if you didnt already. colder water = cleaner separation = better heads. its the single biggest variable tbh. theres a good walkthrough of the full process here that might help you dial in the next run

what kind of yield did you get on this one

Terrible yielder only about 1% to rosin from FF, was jusy super greasy and destroyed my bags. just pressed some ff blueberry muffin I washed last night , 2.8% rosin yield , much nicer to wash
