Is there a trick to handling the wax and measuring it? I feel like i keep losing some on my tools every time I try to maneuver.

Wrap your finger in parchment and gather up the rosin like that. The heat from your finger will gather up the rosin on your sheets. Get it all into a ball, then press into a disc with your press, with or without out heat.

This is rosin pressed from trim. 250f 25 sec.

My new stuff is popcorn bud pressed at 250f for 20sec.

Nice work! For extra credit, put it all in a tea bag and lightly press it with straightener off. Wait until your temp is closer to 120 to do final press. That will clean it up quite a bit.

Has anyone had their flower rosin melt at lower temps than the bubble hash rosin.

My gg4 bubble rosin needs a slightly higher temp than my gg4 flower rosin.

What would make resin harsh?

My friend tried some in his vape pen and said it tasted like burnt and made him feel like puking.

Is it because I used trim? Temps too high? Pressed too long?

@genuity is your rosin from trim unfit to smoke?

By clean did you mean make it less harsh?

Have no clue. It's a mystery and I'm not too good at detective work. Lol

What temps pressing at?
How old was material?
What material was used?
What temp vaping at?
What strains?

Mold, mildew, strain related, burned when pressing could give bad taste. Other than that, im not quite sure how the rosin would be bad or make you dizzy.
Kay. Thanks. I appreciate it.

I dont have a dab rig or vaporizer, is there another way to test? Will I be able to tell from smoking it in a bowl?

So i smoked some of the cleaner stuff I had. I may have been mold cus the first batch of trim was sitting in a closed bin a few days with large fan leaves.

Second batch of trim has been air dried in open bin.

Ill try some tonight and report back.

What was the color of the rosin. Darker color usually means too much heat or too much pressure. Imo the darker the color the worst it tastes.

If it was like burnt popcorn...I'd say to high a temp for trim..& pressed to long.
When I was doing it,I'd go 180 for like 15sec..
