floppy Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I have ordered a rosin press, I have absolutely no idea who/what/when/how, only from watching YouTube videos. I have a few questions if you don't mind. What is a good temperature to use? What do you call the stainless steel tool that scrapes rosin off the paper? What is the paper called? So I can order some? Sorry about the daft questions, but I have to start somewhere, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartman Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) 28 minutes ago, floppy said: What is a good temperature to use? For flower/bud hover around the 220° F mark for about 60-90 secs and adjust (lower temps/shorter press time) to suit your personal preference. For hash or dry sift/kief about 170-190°F. 28 minutes ago, floppy said: What do you call the stainless steel tool that scrapes rosin off the paper? A Stanley knife blade or flat spatula. 28 minutes ago, floppy said: What is the paper called? Parchment. Good luck.

floppy Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 Thanks bartman, I have ordered the rosin press kp-1, I'll start off playing with some sugar trim & then move onto some buds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonSwanson69 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 @floppy Hey man, how did you get on with the KP-1? I'm looking at getting a press in the future so would love to know if it's worth it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floppy Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 It works, it's just to messy, that stuffs sticky & get every where, so it's now a paperweight in its box. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the presses fairly cheap these days im tempted by one myself but ive been worried about the build quality. Good to hear yours worked even if you don't use it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Default Attribute Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I am thinking about investing in a rosin press soon, are the ones for the 300 - 400 price point worth while ? I will just be running percy amounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenOval Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I picked up a 2nd hand KP-4 the other day (gumtree bargain - guy said the dame thing, can't handle the sticky mess!). I'm about 4 weeks out from having some bud ready but I'll be giving it a good go and let you know how it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippie on hill Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I still use my LTQ Vapor KP-1 Their collection tool is very good and their bags are ok too For the money I think the Graveda presses with the pressure gauge are probably the best value in the EU atm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
