Anybody eat Rosin? Do you decarb it for longer than you press it for? Currently pressing for 4 mins at 220, just wondering if most of it is still THCA at this point, and if it needs to be decarb'd longer so there is less THCA?

the fastr it butter up over night mesns in has lots of inative..
SO I decarb mine right on the plates of the press for a few minutes...at 220...

the joke here about decarb..
HEAT ONLY SPEEDS UP the process
it happens "naturally" as the herb dries.
As long as the herb is bone dry it is said to be decarbed,
hope that helps.

ps and we know what bone dry herb presses,,,next to nothing...
So ..like I said.. I do it on the plate. on the parchment...for a few minutes ONLY after pressing..

just turns it oil color and it stays that way...













when the bubbles stop YER DONE! (:

What's everyone using for pressing their Rosin? I hear people using PTFE sheets, Silicon mats, Parchment (non-quilon). I tried a silicon mat (said REMO nutrients on it) I got from some show and it melted/squished permanently at 220f and mechanical hand press pressures. So I won't use those again. Parchment works okay but people say you can get silicon in your Rosin? I just ordered some of this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M2A56DJ/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was using compliments brand parchment but I think it is quilon and that contains heavy metals not silicone.

The problem with the parchment sold in most grocery stores is they don't tell you if it is Quilon made or Silicone made (silicon being a lot safer as quilon contains Chromium a heavy metal). It doesn't say on the box usually. Have to do your research to find out what is what I guess.
