After @doublejj suggestion I tried squishing some rosin last night, cause I'm out of concentrate. 1.5ton arbor press, a couple 3"x4" ground steel plates I had, heated with a torch to ~180F per my laser thermometer. Too bad I folded the parchment wrong..I watched all the goodness run out side and onto to the plates, which weren't cleaned enough, imo, to collect off of .:wall: Gonna try round 2 later. I need to get away from solvent extraction seeing how it's the one thing I do that can still get me jail time, even though it's all personal use. Even ethanol extraction is frowned upon, which is my favorite method and seems to get the best flavors. I'm curious how the heat during squishing effects the final product. If this doesn't meet my standards, I'm gonna give bubble bags another shot.
Try different temps when you squish. I use the lowest temp that will get the job done. The lower the temp the more flavor u get, the higher temp will get u more return....find the happy medium.....

I got up extra early, after going to bed extra late, because some douche wanted to come extra early to buy some parts. Guess what? I haven't heard squat from him and he was adamant about wanting to be here before 9. Now it's 46 and raining hard. I kinda need the $$, but I'm not gonna be happy if he shows up and I have to do work in this weather. I swear people do this shit to troll, set up meetings and then never show up. Douches:finger:. I need more coffee and a bowl.

Edit. Lol, he called about a minute after I posted. Better not try haggling with me.

I haven't actually tried rosin in my vape. I have the pads and everything for it. I just got all the stuff for the Mighty as all the bits are cross-compatible.
I really like convection vaping dried flower though, I feel it is the least messed with, the THC and other diols can get.

wow DJJ . I love your jacket and your plants are beautiful. There is a really neat Vietnam Vet War Memorial park where I was hanging out at today.. With a helicopter sculpture thats awesome. There is a nice green lawn and other very interesting sculptures of soldiers helping each other and an area dedicated to the women who fought and served in the war as well. Its a very nice memorial park you should check it out if you ever pass through the area..Thank you for serving our country and fighting for freedom. Good luck with the rest of your season.
