@Mañ'O'Green , wow!, just watched your vid, this stuff looks righteous! How much was your equipment investment?

Hi TA:

If you look at the DIY Rosin Press thread in my signature I show how to build it all including sources for materials and prices. I am under $300 for everything, including the prepress. You need a few tools and know how to use them. Mainly you need a drill press and good drill bits with cutting oil to drill the holes in the plates for the heaters; also you will need a tap and die set as well.

I just made 3 new chocolate bars last night and after the last one I lick the bowl and spatula and it kicked my arse! .

I could never make them work satisfactorily. That is why I built a press.

 

[bobsimm123]

Im thinking i could make a press of sorts with a clothes steam iron. The cotton setting is about 200° and linen 230°.
This has really got me thinking.
Another thing, do you only use the buds to get the rosin?

I never grew ak47, but I can tell you I have the same back issue as you and was on opioids for 30 years... until I found weed. My personal smoke is low THC/CBD (1:1). Pure magic.

Hi @bobsimm123

I know you are just getting started but perhaps I can show you where I have gone since I started down the same chronic pain path 3 years ago. I had several hurdles to jump before I could get reliable pain relief. I don't smoke. I kicked the habit 45+ years ago and really dislike smoking anything. Vaping extracts is good but the pain relief is not long lasting. I have made a lot of tinctures some good most not. Tinctures are way too inconsistent to dose properly for work. I do not want residual solvents. BHO is not even on the radar just too dangerous. This is what I am doing now and it is the best homemade medicine I have come up with. I know there is a lot involved to get here but it could be a goal.

How much of your chocolate do you need to eat per day
