    Default 6 ton rosin press and a QP

    Hey y'all! The kids were gone this weekend so I decided to get some flower sorted out. The title is a bit misleading as I actually processed 5 oz not 4 but here goes.



    I used a Dabpress 6 ton press purchased from Amazon. Ive had this press for a bit now testing it out. I have ran 5 oz or so through it in batches testing things out prior to this run. I use a cylinder prepress with a hand clap to make 10g pucks. I think a square press would work better and plan on changing soon. Ive used 120 and 90 micron bags, i prefer the texture of the 120 rosin. These are the cylinder bags from pressclub, they bust on me alot but Im green and haven't used others.




    This is Colorado cookies thats been curing since 7/20. This is at %62 rh and broken up by hand to pre press.




    I get 15-20% per press of 210f for 2 minutes. I do not press twice as I make edibles instead.



    This is some critical jack also cured to %62 and harvested on 7/20. She was decarbed.



    I borrowed this little machine to make some coconut oil with. Really handy and Ill probably end up getting one.



    And here is what I ended up with. I did the butter in a slow cooker. I find the butter made from press chips are very green.


    Thank yall for reading! I dont claim to know what Im doing so Ill take any suggestion you have!

    Lol, Its a cool little rig really. Its just a way to get concentrate without using solvents. I cant tell ya that its any better. Id imagine BHO would be easier to make vape fluid and stuff with.

    The magical butter machine is a great little gadget. It doesn't do anything you cant already do in the kitchen but its all together. Its the breadmaker of cannabis cooking.

    $430 with prime on Amazon. I like it but I should have gotten the square pre press mold instead of the cylinder. I tell ya though the closer we get to federal legalization the cooler the toys get!

    I'll give the Feds 5 more years to take over. Wish full thinking. lol Florida is voting on legalize it for the people in 2020, but don't think it will pass. There are no prevision saying if someone can grow there own, like all the other bill's that have been pass in all the other states. Doesn't make much since, just legalize it for 10% top THC and only be able to buy from government, and not grow your own for medical purpose.
