I've read all 9 pages and want to thank you for the documentation and pictures, awesome thread.

I have one question, if you can press pucks and squish those, is there a reason I couldn't press my trim and sugar leaves?

I use a spin pro to prep buds and it knocks quite a lot of trichomes and sugar leaves into the bowl as it spins, I'm wondering how well I might do skipping the dry ice hash part and just pressing that trim into puck and then squishing it directly?
with a 20T press and LowTemp plates?
All I can say is give it a try & you will know right away...good luck(:

sift/tumble/dryice/shake
whatever your method to the trim and press the stuff you sifted out.

You'll be pressing alot of contaminants into the oil that way imo, reason people don't do that. Turning it into kief first eliminates that and you are pressing product only no contaminants....Im sure @doublejj will chime in but thats why I suspect its not done that way....
I dont know about the contaminant part, if you have it into a puck and then into a filter, give it a min for the heat to do it's thing and the oil coming out is still very very clean, I am not sure about the OP scenario but I get way higher grade pressing my flowers than pressing my dirty drysift. I think low temp is key..

I am gonna share how I do it with the low temp heat plates. I only have had them for about a week so take this with a grain of salt.

Here is the best way to get the best cheap rosin without having to buy expensive screens. First, press you lower buds or buds in the parchment either as a pre pressed puck or simply as single buds, spread em out ( I have the 4 x 7 plates) press the shit out of them, no screens( I only have a 10 ton press that I take up to 5 tons at most because anymore and I find the parchment paper tears anyway) Quickly collect all that rosin ( there is a LOT of absolutely perfectly clean rosin here but I just quickly harvest everything, contaminants and all, repress the puck 1-2 times depending but I am not that greedy.

Once I have the dirty rosin, that's where the magic happens, I simply use the melitta coffee filters, brown, unbleached, no 4 or 6. I carefully wrap 2 layers over the whole puck of dirty rosin, press it SLOWLY at 182 settings. If it blows out I start over. Just getting the hang of it right now... After that you are left with some FIRE rosin, flower rosin is the best, I have yet to get that same quality with my dry sift probably because I am rough with the drysift where as the flowers I have pressed so far were well cured, super resiny, at around 55-60% RH.

With my little 10 ton press from canadian tire, pushed to 5 tons on my average final squeeze, I get 12-16% return of absolutely fire low temps rosin depending on strains. Actually that doesnt include what I dab while I make it. I am really stoked with the plates I got from low temp plates, and since I only use them on low temps (87 for flowers so far and 82 to clean the rosin or press drysift) I get the best quality rosin.

Good luck everyone.

I just received my puff majic e-juice and have ordered the ptfe roll. I'm looking for the best e-cig solution and the easiest way to get the oil off of the sheet. Lot's to learn. 20 ton HF press and lowtemp 4X7 plates. Clearomizer
cartridges.

Dude low temp plates bites ass. Lols. Been 30 days and still waiting on the plates. 1st they messed up my shipping then they only put the controller in the box and no plates... the dude Levi has been a dipshit through the whole experience and on two different occasions tried to call me a thief. When all I did was pay the man for a product.

Is that the black widow? Mines in the box needing assembly.
Yup, black widow. Instructions suck balls, but you'll figure it out..
They are lagging with those plates :-(
Dude told me he was gonna ship them today, and that the tracking will be updated, but nope.
I went for the anodized ones, knowing it will take a minute, but it's been more than a minute.

That Black Widow looks sweet. Is that a good balance of price / quality? They hold up well?
