What is Rosin And What Is A Rosin Press?

Imagine being able to enjoy your shatter without any trace of solvent. Now you can, thanks to an emerging solventless technique called “rosin” technology.  The traditional means of obtaining rosin required the use of light hydrocarbons such as butane and/or propane. Often, these complex and mechanical systems required a lengthy cleansing period to safely remove most, if not all of the residual solvents from the final product.

This is where a Rosin Press not only saves time but also produces a clean unadulterated product that does not require the use of any foreign substances. Instead, rosin uses a mechanical process involving heat and pressure to extract the resin from the plant.

This cannabis product is extremely versatile, as rosin is made of marijuana flower, hash, or kief and transformed into a full-melt hash oil. The result is a translucent, sappy, and sometimes shatter-like product that can be consumed as rosin dabs.  In tests, when compared to butane hash oil, the two are aesthetically indistinguishable. Rosin, when made properly, retains just as many valuable terpenes that account for aroma and flavor.

There are now various different types of Rosin Press and for commercial purposes, much will depend on your needs so items to consider may well be:

  • How many hours a day/week do you intend on using the rosin press?
  • How much material will you need to press each time?
  • How important is space or portability to you?
  • As several presses rely on a pneumatic pump or a compressor you may need to consider the noise level?

One of the best suppliers for commercial presses is Trimleaf who offer a very wide range of Manual, Hydraulic, Pneumatic, and Electric Presses. You can easily compare capacity, usability, and price in order to select the Press most suitable for your business.

PurePressure Helix 3 Ton Rosin Press

For those looking for a small-sized rosin press that can produce quality rosin, the Pure Pressure Helix is right for you.

Using the tried and tested design of its bigger brothers, the Pikes Peaks, the Helix gives you the same quality of rosin in a small package.

The Helix uses the trademark Pressware Technology of Pure Pressure, which lets you set the right amount of temperature and pressure in each press.

Don’t let its size fool you. Using its two (2) premium 6061 aluminum heat plates, the Helix can press up to 6 grams of flowers, or 10 grams of Kief or Hash in one go with up to three (3) tons of force using its lead screw twist technology.

While the Helix is a manual press, the Pressware Technology also gives you an accurate measurement of the amount of pressure exerted. Adjust pressure and temperature in small increments to get the right settings for your strains.

Once you have found your sweet spot, save it in 1 of the 29 presets slots so you can recall and get consistent results.

Sasquash M1 10 Ton Rosin Press

The newly redesigned Sasquash M1is a leader in hydraulic rosin presses. With plates large enough to accommodate a squish of 14 grams flower and 20 grams hash thanks to its 10-ton capacity, the Sasquash is a capable unit that can handle anything and everything you throw at it.

The new frame of the M1 also has an open front and back design which offers easy access for rosin collection, cleaning, and maintenance.

The Sasquash M1 can be used with a variety of pumps namely the manual hand pump, the pneumatic foot pump (requires an air compressor and is sold separately), or the fully automated electric pump.

New! Lean Tech functionality

The new Lean Tech function allows the M1 to be tilted for rosin to drip down onto a surface for easier collection.

PurePressure Pikes Peak V2 5 Ton Rosin Press

The best way to increase your production without sacrificing quality is to automate your process.

And that’s what the Pure Pressure Pikes Peak gives you.

Using its trademark Pressware Technology, you can set the right amount of temperature and pressure in each press.

With two premium 6061 aluminum heat plates, the Pikes Peak can press up to 20 grams of flower, or 35 grams of Kief or Hash in one go with up to five (5) tons of force. The heat plates can heat up to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, and even pre-heat without having to press.

The wrong amount of pressure produces terrible results. That’s why the Pikes Peak gives you precision control over temperature and pressure, so you get the best results for each strain.

Once you have found your sweet spot, save it in 1 of the 29 presets slots so you can recall and get consistent results.

Can’t figure where to put it? The Pikes Peak comes with two (2) sets of orientation legs, which lets you use the press in either vertical or horizontal positions.

Rosinbomb M60 Electric Rosin Press

The Rosinbomb M60 is the most efficient Rosin press you can ever invest in. With its patent-pending Flow Channel Technology, the M60 makes pressing a very pleasing experience.  

The M60’s dual heated metal plates can exert 6,000 pounds of pressure, and can yield up to 90 grams in an hour and can process up to 15 grams of material at a time. 

The Flow Channel Technology is the core feature of the M60. Using FDA-approved, food-grade, hard diamond plates, the extracted oil flows onto a custom silicon tray, without having to clean up after every press. With its non-stick surface, there’s no need to scrape frequently. 

Due to customer feedback, each new M60 now comes with a conversion plate that goes over the press plates and converts the Flow Channel into a flat press similar to the M50 for smaller batch pressing and test runs.

For a longer press session, Flow Channel technology offers the most benefit so you have the best of both worlds.

The Rosinbomb M60 requires no attachments to work. Just set the temperature and press with ease.

These are just a few of the many options Trimleaf offer for commercial use. Please visit their website for more information and offers
