I don’t have an answer except that each strain/cultivar has it’s own mixture of fats, lipids, etc. I do notice differences in the amount of heat and pressure during the press can cause differences in the texture. It’s fun to experiment if you have abundance of weed…I don’t have that luxury at the moment. I save all the pucks for later alcohol extraction.
I usually do. Your plants are looking insane bro!do you pluck off trim your fan leaves b4 harvest.. ?
1. I like to use 120-160 micron bags/sleeves.
2. I use a mold to make my pucks.
3. Bottle tech with folded bag corners seems to work best for me.
4. Apply pressure slowly.
5. Use good parchment—slick stuff works really well.
6. I generally press for 4 minutes including a 1 minute warmup where the puck is firmly pressed between the heated plates and constant pressure is being achieved.
7. I keep an aluminum clipboard in the freezer to aid in collection.
8. Naturally you need two plates that are heated to smash with.
9. Remember that rosin will stick to itself…and anything it touches. Silicone pads are a must for me.
That’s all I got off the top of my head.
Yummy!!!!
