3 Items to Help You Increase Rosin Press Yield

Over the last half a decade, the art and science of extracting rosin have changed from unconventional ways such as the use of a hair straighter to more sophisticated tools. The resin extraction process is fairly simple as it only uses heat and pressure to squeeze out the essential oils.
Rosin pollen Presses
One of the major steps in attaining high-quality rosin yields is by making sure that your material is well prepared before heating and squeezing. It’s a well-known fact that the quality of the flower and the moisture in the material plays a significant role in increasing rosin yields; however, all the progress in choosing and preserving the best material can be wiped out by pollen residues that come from loose material. A Stainless steel pollen press allows you to use a significant amount of material while reducing spillage, which reduces yields as it runs with the oils. We at MyPress Solventless have developed a unique market driven stainless steel press that allows you to keep the material when pressing flower rosin into tablet or pack form. This then makes it easy for you to load your press bag with a large amount of material thus improve on rosin volume as well as reduce chances of pollen contamination on the oil.
Screen Bags
We have always advised our clients to use bags before beginning the extraction process because it helps keep the material together and it allows the oils to escape through it without getting to the trim. Over time it has become apparent that monofilament filter mesh made of Nylon makes for the best bags for improving yields. Additionally, the bags are recommended by the FDA in food production processes this makes them safer than other materials. It’s advisable not to use stainless steel screens scratch plates as they substantially reduce the yields; in addition, silkscreens make it difficult for you to measure the pressure applied accurately because of extended stretching.
Dab Mats
When making a high quality of yield of rosin it is important to keep your working surface clean in order to avoid contamination of your tools as well as your product. A dab mat is best in collecting all used material ready for disposal allowing you to have a clutter free clean working space that allows you collect and sample finished products.
