New extraction technique? Rosin tech? - Page 15 - Cannabis Concentrates - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

W had 2 people do this. They had a bigger person just str8 stand on the hair straightener. It produced a bunch of oil. More then I ever got anyway.
Anyone got tips on rerunning the buds? I tried stacking the leftovers.. Pretty much got nothing.

Forgot to add it in my post above but I have had substantially better results using kief. For coming up with some heady dabs in literally 5 minutes! I am super impressed.

I tried using the 25u screen from an old bag set but I guess I didn't clean them after I decided they where on there last run (DOH!!!). Im gonna have to get busy with alcohol cleaning that screen because I think that's the answer to pressing nug and getting a clean return. With the kief it seems the oil just naturally runs away from the kief and is easy to collect.

Also one final thought, the oil is extremely potent in a different way than BHO. It seems to be less of a complete extraction than a solvent provides, more just melted trich heads. I think the little bit lower yield and slightly less taste is the same reason its only extracting the big juicy trich heads.

hmm that could be it!

Lower temps and longer presses might get you more terpenes maybe? I can't wait until you guys get this technique dialed. Thanks for putting in all the work and sharing!

Does anyone wonder if the silicon coating on parchment paper is part of the contaminate? Scraping rosin off the paper with a razor seems like it could pick up the coating. Thoughts?

If it's contaminating it's doing it during the press. The rosin plucks off the parchment super easy, kind of like cold sap would.

Thx. Mine stays pretty sticky and doesnt want to go anywhere. Some stuff makes the flakes tho.

I tried the pressed pucks with a handheld pollen press, and leached the resin off with a flatiron. Although it worked, the rosin was a lot darker. I think it may be too much chlorypyhll in one condensed area. It has a greenish hue to it. Tests will continue.

Put it in the freezer to remove from parchment

Maybe freeze the material and your press first, then press puck, refreeze, then do your extraction. That might cut down on chlorophyll.
