Ok I got alot of fn hash. Lol. Hopefully start pressing this weekend. I haven't screened it all yet, only have about 1/4 of it screened out and drying. The way I do it is the frenchy cannoli way with freezing the hunka chunka and then rubbing it through a sieve into a fine powder onto parchment and then placed in the dry room. Then I'd usually roll out some temple balls and wrap in cellophane/put in fridge to cure out for 3-6mnths. Obviously I'm not going to roll it into temple but how does everyone else screen their bubble?

I've had my press for a month or so. Started out pressing on parchment chottle style at high Temps 190 to 220. I like the product I got at 160 much better. Also using oilslick ptfe to squish into. It's durable and reusable compared.to parchment. Very light colored and more fragrant than the higher temp squish. I don't have a pressure gauge but I try not to overpressed. Saving all my pucks to make gummies down the road.20220528_122046.jpg

I think I left it in too long and pressed too hard but it's still killer. Still have like 2oz left to squish

No idea my friend. Data suggests 60-70% return. I weighed that bag. It was 11g. I got 4.6g on the first press and 1.6 off the second so that's like 56%. Close to the target range and it was 120u so it's second grade anyways. I'm sure the 90u presses will come out at a higher % making it a bit more even around 60something%

I'm pretty positive you are not supposed to use oil slick PTFE paper to press on

Just picked up a banger bucket and pid controller. I'm sick of guessing the temps. Actually surprised I haven't gotten one already!
