Rosin Tech

The 25 micron bags I use, I started withb7g keif, was too much and had blow outs. 5g is just about perfect. I have 5g of my personal bubble im.pressing tonight. Next time I'll try pressing trim, and see how the yeilds are for that. Dry ice extracting keif, then filling bags is very time-consuming. Tried some last night and was outstanding.

I am building 2 new kief tumblers like my old one. Just pug & play. Fill with trim, turn on the rotisserie motor & walk away. 30mins you have your dry sieve kief for pressing.

I need on about 10x larger. 648g dried was my last trim weight.

It Cost me 20.00 for 10lbs dry ice, used 2x 160iu bubble bags, 1x 5gal bucket, and 30 mins total.shaking all the trim. Yeilded 82g keif.

I have made a ton of dry ice hash, but it takes a lot of shaking. The kief tumbler is just fill & walk away.

The tumbles seems like a great idea, but I need on on a MUCH larger scale. Lol. 5 gallon bucket side or bigger.

The 5gl bucket will hold several lbs of trim & you only tumble for 15-30min. That's about 5lbs an hr, & I am building 2....that's 10lbs per hr = 80lbs a day...... how much you got?

Shoot me some details in a pm. I had a major migraine from 3am.tom1pm, so im.still recovering and in a fog. Hard to see and type stuff out. Hope the auto correct us working

You can get everything from Home Depot, except the metal screen.
1 plastic tub
1 5gl bucket w/lid
1 electric bbq rotisserie set
2 plastic zip ties
1 duct tape

drill a hole in the lid & bottom of the bucket to allow the rotisserie rod to pass thru. Use the prongs on the rotisserie forks to poke 2 small holes in the top & bottom, this will allow the motor to turn the bucket. Mount the rotisserie motor mount & the other metal mount to either side of the plastic tub by drilling holes in the plastic & use the zip ties. You can lift the bucket on & off the tub. Cut away much of the sides of the bucket & wrap the screen around & duct tape securely...

Wonder if 160iu mesh would work vs the screen

give it a try... the thing about the 160iu fabric is it needs to be tight to work well. The metal screen works even a little loose.

just toss in some dry ice and no more shaking. faster then tumbling I would guess there is a picture on this site I uploaded of a keif tumbler we used at work

What about using a heat press for rosin?

Their only like 300 dollars.

like a tee shirt press?

I was looking into phenumatic t shirt presses, but they only go to 2000psi & to get the best squish you need much more pressure & then you can use less heat to get the best product. so I bought a 20 ton shop press...

How much pressure? Wut? So I cant just use a hair straightner set to 200?

Yes, that will work. But if you want *5*star rosin you need much lower heat (180*-130*) & tons of pressure. With more pressure you can use less heat & squish for a longer time & get a higher quality product.

Do you get more product? Whats the return like?

More terps products, more flavor products. ...and more consistent yields.
