Plants contain a resin that – after being separated from the plant material – can be used as a concentrate. The resin is the essence that holds the majority of the active substances. It can be obtained in various ways and one of them is by using a hot press. This method is much safer than other techniques, where explosive solvents are used.
Black Leaf manual press is a handy device that works in the temperature range from 50 to 243 degrees Celsius, which are suitable for pressing concentrates from the majority of herbs. The surface of the heating plates is covered with tourmaline and ceramics, which ensures effective heat distribution and prevents the material from sticking to them. If you want to make concentrates at home, you will need some non-stick baking paper or special, nylon rosin filters.
It’s very easy to use the Black Leaf press. Simply set the required temperature and wait until the device heats up. Place the herb between two sheets of baking paper (or in a nylon filter) and press the material with the plates for a dozen of seconds. As a result, you get some resin on the surface of the paper. Collect it with a dabber and move onto a clean sheet of paper or into a concentrate container. The production process of home concentrates is very quick, but it provides a high-quality product that can be instantly used for dabbing.
