I wish I could afford to make my own distillate, that’s for another thread
I have to agree, Rosin is the best. What I do mostly for cartridges is use my reclaim. I have a jar of alcohol i put all my dabbers and scrappers and everything else that gets all gooey. After a while, i filter the alcohol through a coffee filter, evaporate it, and use the normally tasteless reclaim with the flavored dilutant.What was your
starting concentrate? I use shatter that I’ve made or fresh rosin.
so you use reclaim, dliute the hell out of it with liquidizer? Yeah I'll just stick with pure distillate and terps. Or, actual shatter and a hell of a lot less liquidizer. 30% is a complete waste of time for me.I have to agree, Rosin is the best. What I do mostly for cartridges is use my reclaim.

Im with you on that. My GF likes the liquid because its weaker. There's also no odor with vapor, so it has it's time and place, However, when its every other time, I, Like you, am a Shatter man through and through.so you use reclaim, dliute the hell out of it with liquidizer?

To get the BEST product, you must do as reallybigjesusfreak mentioned, with distillation.I want use rosin to make some vape carts. What product do you guys recommend to get the best results? Also, which carts do you recommend?
I just want to use a rosin press. What are some trusted terpene companies?To get the BEST product, you must do as reallybigjesusfreak mentioned, with distillation.
Using distillation, Your end product should be over 90% THC.
Using a dilutant as I do, your end product is somewhere between 25%-35% THC.
A full distillation set up w/ heating mantle is about $150-$200 U.S., dilutant is obviously way cheaper, but if you truly want quality you must use the distillation process.
For cartridges, i recommend low resistance (low ohm) cartridges. They're only a couple bucks each on ebay.
Good luck with a200$ distillation rig.To get the BEST product, you must do as reallybigjesusfreak mentioned, with distillation.

Right?! Let's see that deal! Maybe $2,000 but that still seems low.Good luck with a200$ distillation rig.
Trust me, it's going to tricky trying to get resin into carts without winterizing out the lipids that clog the carts and turn them black. A few pages back I laid out my routine for winterizing rosin and effectively making a distillate from it using ethanol and a stove top. All the terpenes are designed to be used with winterized products. You'd need an ungodly amount to liquefy resin. Otherwise you are looking at PG/VG solutions to emulsify and blend all those fats.I just want to use a rosin press. What are some trusted terpene companies?
Dude! He doesn’t need vg/pg To liquify rosin. AND @MstrChief don’t cook your ethanol and pressed rosin on a stove top!!!! Don’t listen to armpit....Right?! Let's see that deal! Maybe $2,000 but that still seems low.

How about $150? Theres 2 Distillation sets, they are sold at a local Science Supply Store, American Science and Surplus. The also sell online @ sciplus.com
Ive seen these set ups in store and they are all high quality lab glass and everything you need but.....
A heating mantle that will get up to about 350°C (at my elevation) here's the link for this one. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/401576114391
Ive used 'trees x' https://treesx.com/?age-verified=4b85e31ce8 and they were exactly what they said they were.I just want to use a rosin press. What are some trusted terpene companies?
As I said, to mix rosin without removing lipids you will need PG or VG or similar. It's what is in all these different wax liquidizers. That's exactly what is in this TreesX stuff. They recommend 20-30 drops per gram of material, maybe more. That is a lot! I've tried this countless times and have found from experience that I get a much better product by winterizing the resin with ethanol and mixing in just a few drops of terpenes only to the finished product.Ive used 'trees x' https://treesx.com/?age-verified=4b85e31ce8 and they were exactly what they said they were.
What happens to your carts if you add zero terps or dilutant? I've tried to make carts with no additives using your recipe but the winterized rosin starts to butter up in the cart. Do you think just a drop of terpine would fix this issue?As I said, to mix rosin without winterizing you will need PG or VG. It's what is in all these different liquidizers.

I am not sure how I became the crazy person to ignore, but that reaction definitely fits the general vibe of RIU.

If the rosin is buttering up then it sounds like it has not been properly winterized and filtered. The buttering action is typically caused by the lipids that the winterizing process removes.What happens to your carts if you add zero terps or dilutant?
