The idea is to combine heat, pressure and time to extract the resin from inside the trichome heads as quick and efficiently as possible, but without rushing it to avoid blowouts. To do so, there are many different techniques. In this post, we will guide you through basic steps to make your own rosin.
To make rosin, you will need a few things:
Cannabis flowers or hash
Rosin press or hair straightener
Parchment paper
Rosin Bags
Heat-resistant Gloves
If you have a rosin press, here is what you can do:
Preheat your rosin press to the desired temperature (usually between 160-220 degrees Fahrenheit).
Place a small amount of cannabis buds or hash into a Supreme Rosin Bag.
Place the bag onto a piece of parchment paper.
Fold the parchment paper around the bag to create a small packet.
Place the packet onto the heated plates of the rosin press.
Lower the heated plates just enough to touch the parchment and leave it for 20-30 seconds.
Apply pressure to the packet by pressing down firmly. Hold for 20-30 seconds. Repeat this process one more time.
Open the rosin press and remove the parchment paper with the pressed cannabis inside.
Quickly open the parchment paper and remove the rosin bag from the parchment paper.
Fold the parchment paper in a way that the rosin becomes one mass is the centre.
Using a new clean piece of parchment paper, grab the rosin and place it in a glass jar.
If you don't have a rosin press, you can still make rosin using a hair straightener.
Here's a step-by-step:
Preheat your hair straightener to the desired temperature (usually between 160-220 degrees Fahrenheit).
Place a small amount of cannabis buds or hash into a Supreme Rosin Bag.
Place the bag onto a piece of parchment paper.
Fold the parchment paper around the bag to create a small packet.
Using the hair straightener, press down on the packet of cannabis for 20-30 seconds.
Open the hair straightener and remove the parchment paper with the pressed cannabis inside.
Quickly open the parchment paper and remove the rosin bag from the parchment paper.
Fold the parchment paper in a way that the rosin becomes one mass is the centre.
Using a new piece of parchment paper, take the rosin off the parchment paper and place it in a container.
Note: It's important to use caution when working with high temperatures and to wear heat-resistant gloves to avoid burns.
