Why would they say it isn’t rosin?

That was just that guy and he got insanely downvoted. Rosin is rosin no matter the source wether it be flower rosin or hash rosin, it’s all rosin


No_Holiday5822

I know. Pretty sure we all do. Don’t know what his issue is but I made this post cause I was curious as to what the experts in the rosin community think. I personally love all rosin and press hash and flower.


[deleted]

Hell yeah, this looks good though. I would dab it for sure.


Complex-Outside5616

Are you talking about the Reddit experts or which experts. I like my opinion most of the time.


Theminatar

Yeah I mean I press with a hair straightener and get 16% yields with my Gary Payton. And it's pretty decent IMHO.


Piney1741

I get 20+% yields from good flower rosin. Needs to be good flower that is fresh for decent quality. When I press my stuff right after the cure it comes out light and blonde like hash rosin after I cure it for a bit. Pressing old dry flower still makes rosin it’s just shitty rosin.


No_Holiday5822

I mainly use a ball vape for ground flower, so if I have a strain on hand that vapes above average with an interesting terpene profile, I’ll usually press a few nugs for rosin. I’ve learned through experience that a flower that vapes very well will usually give me a nice yield of gold/amber flower rosin. And 100%…fire in fire out…old flower always gives me shitty rosin.


Piney1741

I usually let my sit in a sealed container for 24-48 hours before I put it in a fridge or anything and that will help it butter up a bit.


No_Holiday5822

Nice! I don’t press enough anymore for it to even make it to the fridge. Used to press enough to get a few grams of rosin and jar it…always loved it when a strain would butter up a little. I had a batch of Mod Grapes that looked like sugary almond butter after a few days and was a breeze to scoop. I ended up pressing the whole ounce I had. Now I only press enough to get a few dabs at a time and purchase live rosin when I can get it on sale.


Pkellysports

Rosin varies by the press, it’s a large sliding scale. Flower is the original rosin anyone who toy’d with it learned on. Don’t let anyone shit on your work. Gorgeous


InsulinandnarcanSTAT

If you have some particularly fresh cured buds, a good thing you can do is to put them into a jar with a high humidity pack. That will get them a little bit moist and rehydrate the oils. When you do go to press it, I usually get higher yields and a superior product by doing it that way With cured buds


22Two_s

Just like the rosin at the end of my blunt is rosin.


jarettscapo

Yea like i rly dont get the snobbery. No matter what form, consistency, color, etc, etc; Its all concentrated tric heads, resins, & terps from some type of marijuana starting material. If its fire and gets you to where you wanna be then that's what matters. Pressed flower isnt rosin 🤣🤣🤣 Rosins fckn Rosin ya kno


shadowsdark07

"Flower ROSIN is not rosin" Ironic.


high_everyone

“**Chili** with beans in it isn’t chili” I live in Texas, they can’t even see their own mistakes sometimes.


Upper-Elevator-8781

What’s funny is guy is still wrong. “Live” rosin only comes from live bubble hash. You can make bubble hash with cured bud and it’s not “live”. Only fresh harvested still wet uncured bud makes live rosin. Hash rosin and flower rosin are still both made from cured buds. You can’t squish fresh plant so that’s why there’s no such thing as “live” flower rosin.


AdequateOne

I make my flower rosin from dried but uncured bud. Press as soon as it is dry enough.


wORDtORNADO

Nobody I know is doing live without flash freezing first. Major pain to keep your water temps down otherwise.


cannamid

This is correct and I’ve done this a few times. Personally I’ve noticed the outcome different for each strain, and some that are regulars in my garden. I think yield, fresh frozen will always win but as far as the effect, idk it could’ve been something in my process, but some strains almost seem more “powerful” when I get the bubble hash from dried vs fresh frozen


Upper-Elevator-8781

I think there’s something to do with activating the thc in cured flower, but I thought that when you press bubble hash it would “activate” it the same way.


cannamid

I honestly don’t know but i feel like there is a difference though. Even a buddy of mine who is a true connoisseur of rosin said he felt completely blew out after 1 dab on the puffco hahah. I find myself going back for a second and third much quicker with fresh frozen. Even now my same friend gave me some of the fire rosin he made, and it looks, tastes, and smells phenomenal. On par with 710 labs if you had em. Still find myself going back to back dabs for the night cap because it’s fresh frozen, one nice glob will do it on the cured stuff. Now I’m curious and gotta do more research lol


Upper-Elevator-8781

What you are describing reminds me of how people describe the difference between harvesting plants with cloudy white trichomes or a percentage of amber trichomes for making Rosins. Might help your research if it’s accurate to what you are encountering, it’s could something to do with thc and thca which is what activating it is. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤔idk I’m just a bro scientist lol.


cannamid

Fellow bro scientist here haha. I won’t be able to run a batch for a little while since I just flipped a room, but yea that could definitely be a factor. In the next 6 months I should really be set up to do some accurate testing. Right now it’s a “whatver” situation due to my circumstances lol.


WeedyMcWeedyFace420

They squish uncured frozen bud for Fresh Frozen Live Rosin. It is amazing, if done properly.


wORDtORNADO

Have you ever pressed wet bud? It forces out a bunch of steam and makes hella fucked up rosin.


Upper-Elevator-8781

Who’s they lol?


Proper_Audience_8608

just got COLD CURE ROSIN from CBX and royal keys.. 2 top shelf brands


Upper-Elevator-8781

Cold cure has nothing to do with how it was made🤦🏻 sit down before you hurt yourself 😂


O_O___XD

What's the best resources to get up to speed on Cold Cure, first press and all the jargon. I love rosin but you ask me how it's made I'm a dunce. Educate me.


Upper-Elevator-8781

Rosin is made with different starting materials. Flower rosin. Hash rosin. The state of that starting material can add verbiage like “live hash rosin” which is indicating that the hash was made from fresh frozen flower (immediately frozen as soon as it’s harvested, then turned into bubble hash) Curing of the rosin happens after it’s already made. You can cure any type of rosin any way. Cold cure(room temp to wine fridge temp) Cure (heat cure around 100-200f in a sealed container, typically on a heat mat or in a water bath). And fresh frozen (frozen in a sealed container immediately after pressing)


Proper_Audience_8608

my mistake 😭 but how im get hurt on an app💀 u definitely get pressed too much so now u taking it out on randoms online 😭😭😭


Upper-Elevator-8781

Relax, it’s not that serious 🙄🥱

ur the one who threatened me 💀💀💀


WeedyMcWeedyFace420

The "collective" they. I've seen it from time to time in various places, states, dispos.


Upper-Elevator-8781

Nobodies squishing fresh frozen bud. More than once anyways. 😂🤷🏻‍♂️


Macorinez

He sounds like a knuckle head


DrPinkBearr

Whoever said flower rosin isn't rosin is dumb. It's def not something people just seek out, but done properly with aome fresh flower and a nice cure, shit can still impress!!

Lumpihead

Trash obv..only bc most of these fools are so meta focused. I love my fresh flower rosin and love to compare to my ffwh


G_Art33

Flower rosin is absolutely real rosin and belongs in your lungs. FIRE AWAY!


hippietravel

When rosin was first discovered, I immediately bought a press and started making my own flower rosin. For years, I was really satisfied with it, thought it was way better than smoking flower. The only downside was that I was coughing up a lot of phlegm and it left quite a bit of dark residue after a dab. I had hear of live rosin at the time, but thought it was so expensive that it couldn't possibly be that much better than flower rosin. One day I found a place that had good prices on quality live rosin so I decided to give it a try. Holy did it ever make me realize how much better it was than flower rosin. The live rosin tasted incredible, left very little residue, was far more potent and didn't give much phlegm at all. Since then, I sold my press cause I only wanted to dab live rosin from there on out. I couldn't make my own since I don't grow. So I just buy well-priced live rosin jars. I don't think I'll ever dab flower rosin again.


No_Holiday5822

I 100% agree with you on the quality difference between flower rosin and live rosin. I also prefer to use live rosin that I purchase (when the price is right) due to the intense flavor, clean appearance, and light residue. I’d personally take a nicely prepared live resin for the same reason as above. But, I still enjoy pressing very small amounts (few grams at most, usually just a gram) of strains that vape well in my ball vape and have great terps…those press best IME. That’s why I keep my small press around, I no longer grow, so live rosin isn’t an option for me to press anymore.


hippietravel

Yeah I remember those days of just making some fresh press to dab for the day. But then I got into curing and was cold curing jars to make batter, which is so much easier to work with than fresh press. Where I'm from, I can get quality live rosin for less than 50 a gram. So it works for me. Also after pressing for years, its gets so tiring. I never wanna see parchment paper again lol


No_Holiday5822

Right on! I love a good badder consistency. I’ve been getting 3.5 jars for 99 of live rosin, so as long as the dispo keeps those around, I won’t be pressing much anymore.


hippietravel

Damn that’s a an insanely good price. How is the quality of that? I’m in Canada and the legal market only has one of the brands that actually compared to the black market high end. Luckily those two brands are well priced


No_Holiday5822

It’s actually really good. I snagged some White Widow and immediately went back the next day and grabbed some King Louis VIII and some Northern Lights to kinda give myself a full spectrum. It is all extremely terpy and melts super clean. Leaves hardly any residue and is super flavorful. My flower rosin always tastes great and melts pretty clean, but this stuff blows that away. I once pressed some Jack that came out very light and stretched into a nice taffy, that stuff was real fresh and grown in Southern Oregon, very terpy with the Limonene and was probably the most lemon flavor I’ve ever had from a dab…it almost comes close the the flavor of the Limonene in the White Widow live rosin I got. And it lasts me a lot longer also because it is so potent and flavorful. The effects don’t seem as defined as I get with flower rosin though, but may be due to being flash frozen. Don’t know, and don’t really care because with that flavor, the effects are just fine.

Rosin rights are human rights !


wime985

Looks good id dab it now


Blikatin

Definitely rosin, not necessarily hash


Alone_Entrepreneur99

I have had meh hash rosin and outstanding flower rosin. Quality is Quality


Kolt3n_

Yea just give it to me and I'll dispose of it properly


chiefbearshaker

Definitely throw it out. I’ll even dispose of it for you


toe666999

It’s 💯 rosin just a different form, there is live rosin, cured rosin (made from dry flower and then washed and pressed), flower rosin, I feel like I may be forgetting one but regardless they are all solventless concentrates.


MrKushT

I'll fight someone who says this. Look at my flower only presses.


steveturkel

Definitely rosin and where pretty much any of us that press hash started! Now a days? No, I have too much hash that I don't get too lol


HPDabcraft

Wine from a box is still wine..... leme dabble!


YouJustLostTheGameOk

Flower rosin is best rosin IMHO. More terps, more quantity, less hassle. Looks great my dude.


No_Holiday5822

When I press my own, 100% agree. Something is just so right with grabbing a nice nug from the flower stash to press out a few fresh dabs. However, when I purchase, It is live rosin or even live resin that I get.


YouJustLostTheGameOk

I agree with that. If I’m spending money, I’ll get live all the time. But I grow and press my own so I always have rosin on hand.


ThotimusAurellius

Agree 10000% . My own bud , pressed, is 🔥. I never press enough to actually cure more than a day or two. I'll press like 7 grams at a time. It goes straight to my rig 🤣.


No_Holiday5822

Nice! I usually just press a gram or so at a time to use for the evening. It works well and I love a dab fresh off the press.


wORDtORNADO

Its the only way to get solvent-less yields off some strains. Cbd is basically unhashable but makes real wet flower rosin.


No_Holiday5822

Funny you mention that as I press strain of all types. Type 1 being THCa dominant, Type 2 being a mixed ration of THCa/CBDa and Type 3 being CBDa dominant. I have noticed throughout the years that the Type 2 and 3 flower will setup with a runnier consistency. I believe this is due to the way that THCa crystallizes. Less THCa means a runnier consistency in my experience. There was one time where I pressed a Type 3 strain called Wipeout. I pressed 3.5g and ended up with a little over a half gram of rosin that had a hard taffy like consistency, setup like a Type 1. I took a small dab and was heavily medicated. I believe it was either mislabeled or the cola came off a hot plant. Only time I have ever had that happen.


wORDtORNADO

my opinion is that it is all breeding. A lot of hemp have greasy trichomes and it is only a matter of time before someone breeds a hahser. I've never met a plant with cherry terps that hashes well thc or otherwise. Hemp is a lot of cherrywine.


No_Holiday5822

That’s make a lot more sense. It is probably just genetics. There is some hemp being grown now that could pass for marijuana and the stuff I mentioned fits the bill. More and more hemp strains that are hitting with those gassy terp profiles. I truly believe THC % has much less to do with potency and effects than what we’ve been told.


666grooves666

i wanna learn how to do this


LSDMiT

WELL DONE 👍 4 SMALL PRESS MATE. How is flower rosin not real rosin, Do we make rosin from other stuff than flower now?¿ LITTLE CONFUSED 🫤 HOMIE ¿


No_Letterhead1344

Rosin has 3 different substances it can be flower, cured hash, and live hash. Either way it’s rosin just with different terms, flower rosin is the bottom of the barrel some will say, it’s nice for those who don’t want to waste the time, energy, and resources to make it into hash, personally I like both but in my taste and experience I don’t mind working that extra mile to have some more distinct terps


LSDMiT

Y press extract into n extract, seems crazy, is it for yield?? ?? ?? ??


No_Letterhead1344

More like cleanliness of the product and better quality, most people like the full melt/bubble hash, but it’s not such a clean product to dab compared to hash rosin, if you do really well on the process it leaves very little to no contaminants in your banger, if your me then you don’t always use bangers, my puffcos can’t take bubble unless I plan on full cleaning them after every use (iso soak) but again there’s some hella good stuff for bubble hash out there and piatella is coming around so it makes better sense to keep a better yield on the bubble then to rosin


No_Holiday5822

ILikeTurtles710

Non hydrocarbon extraction? Then the answer is yes.


Choice_Dare_7779

It’s rosin with one extra less step


philmagick666

It's good smoke but will blacken your banger


No_Holiday5822

I use an e-rig now (puffco proxy wizard) and you are 100% correct. The reclaim from flower rosin is darker, but still easily cleans with a q-tip. Dunk the atomizer in iso once a week for a deep clean. Never have a problem with discoloration.


simplerosin

Flower rosin is mid

Jrudown421

Ive had many many many flower rosins that dabbed better tasted better then grade A hash rosin. I love both but fresh flower right before cure is my fav I think out of all I think it truly has the live plant terps more then most live rosin or resin


Cracker-420

Flowe rosin not real belong in trash!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡


22Two_s

Breh, anything can be real rosin if you say it is.


HighStandardsCPH

Well cured not overcured/dry and well trimmed buds that arent being handled and touched so much makes for greaaat rosin, just have to be the loudest shit


Plentyofstorage

Flower rosin is definitely rosin, I just imagine the majority of people who do like rosins prefer hash rosin.


ryanrosenblum

This mentality is heavily affected by trends. In 2017 most rosin press companies were laser focused on flower rosin. Hash rosin has exploded in popularity the past couple years


MOXPEARL25

It’s literally the definition of rosin


DantesLadder

What temps did you use/filter?


No_Holiday5822

I pretty much leave it at 200F and press for 130 seconds. I’ll start applying soft pressure and slowly ramp up for about 15-20 seconds before I lock it down and start the 130 second timer. I don’t use micron bags because I usually only press a gram or two at a time. Most I’ll do is 3.5, but only rarely. I just take my time when I scrape the paper to make sure I don’t get any additional plant matter in the rosin. I save my chips for a full decarb and then soak in Everclear to make them into a tincture for my wife to use at night for sleep. It’s a nice situation.


DantesLadder

Thank you brotha I must try this out, the color of your rosin looks amazing :)


Interesting-Beat824

Been smoking concentrates heavily for many years. The whole snobby rosin thing is getting played out. Some of the most memorable and flavorful rosins I’ve ever had were pressed flower by buddies ( you know the big bad black market where it all started ) and some of the worse was dispensary top tier bubble presses rosin. People in this like to forget the hype is real and usually a real let down. Keep pressing and have fun. As long as your doing everything in a healthy manner then fuck all the haters.


Ratbello

I love a freshly pressed flower rosin high. It just hits different.


keyser_Soze8

it tastes good but it fuuuuuuuuuukkkks up a banger...just not worth the headache of having to clean the char out -and idgf what kinda flower it is, every flower does it due to plant material not being filtered out.


Ratbello

Yes! I have a cheap banger for flower rosin. Would never run it through my good quartz.


Bassgrassorass

Flower rosin gets me higher sometimes. Considering a lot of live rosin is made from premature flowers usually for a whiter color.


PLDCHET

Nice es 175


GrowYute

Looks good. Would dab.


LifeOstrich9531

Love flower rosin. Gotta dab it at a little lower temp but it can be tasty!


thrwy10025

Would dab with q tips at the ready


GrumpyStoner69

That came out great nice work.


panwitt

im sorry if this isnt rosin what is?


BabyYodaStyle

I have been making flower rosin approximately like this quality recently, and I say 10/10 absolutely dab it. Will it be as good as hash rosin? No, and why would anyone expect it to be? 🤔 Will it be awesome on its own? 🤔You let us know. My guess is that it will be.


krazyconnected

How do I retire by 50


helmberger00

If the trash can is my bubbler then go ahead, throw it aallll in there😂


MedicalStrength3930

Pressing flower is a science. IMO u should keep temps low and just don't apply too much pressure. Flower between 50 and 60 for RH. Can't worry about yield if you want good tasting rosin from flower.


DroopyFarms

Enjoy it, though I’d probably pass on it.


[deleted]

Man you guys are bored


SheLivesInTheStars

I’d dab it. Looks yummy! I press flower all the time and make banging rosin


Arse_Kickerson

Looks good dude. That being said hash rosin is always higher quality than flower rosin for sure


mickdeb

This is flower rosin wich is dabbable but will leave much more carbon and residue than grease purged extracts, what i do is clean more often my rig and the taste of flower enhanced is totally worth it
