Introductions!
Thanks for ordering your very own My Rosin Press! Before you start there are a few things to consider!
We’ve engineered your press from the ground up to be as easy, and painless to operate as possible. In this
guide we’re going to cover initial conditions, calibration of the Press, “first press” instructions, and a thorough
consideration of the most common questions and concerns people experience when pressing for the first time. If
you’re an “old hand” at this already, we recommend taking the time to read through at least once - who knows,
you may come across something you didn’t know before!
Like a high-quality chef’s knife, My Rosin Press is a specialty tool. Without training, anyone can pick up a knife
and cut an apple in half, but to use it to to do something impressive like filet a fish you’ll need to practice, have
patience, experiment and learn with it. Pressing your own custom, tailor-made rosin is as much a science as it is
an art. Take the time to learn, and you’ll be deeply rewarded for your efforts.
Getting Started: What do I need?
You will need your flower to press, parchment paper (NOT wax paper) and, preferably, a little notebook and
pencil for note-taking.
Thanks to the design of your press, your material will be compressed and formed into the proper shape and
thickness to maximize the heat-transfer, and result in the best possible extraction. If you have 3 grams of flower
to press, we recommend breaking it up into two individual presses so as not to leave any rosin behind. This will
increase your realizable yields and ensure the life of your press for years to come!
A benefit of pressing smaller weights than commercial extractions is that you can do away with press bags when
pressing flower. The natural structure of the flower will keep the majority of your flower together, and prevent it
from running with your oil.
It’s only when pressing finer materials (i.e. kief, sift, or bubble hash, etc.) that a press bag will become beneficial.
As those materials are finer, and not in any way held together, they will have a higher potential of running with
your oil during extraction making it more difficult to collect your fresh rosin afterwards without contamination.
How much should I press at one time?
My Rosin Press is designed for personal, micro-batch extractions. We’ve engineered the machine to operate most
efficiently using one to one-and-a-half grams (1 - 1.5g) of material between the plates. As mentioned previously,
this will guarantee that you are effectively extracting the most rosin from your material, though there are
additional reasons why this weight was chosen which leads us to…
Rosin has a shelf-life.
Freshly extracted rosin will begin to oxidize quickly! The typical window of time in which monoterpenes will
stay “fresh” post-extraction is approximately 72 hours at room temperature. Monoterpenes are what provide the
delicate fruit flavors in your flower: kiwi, green apple, pineapple, etc. This window can be extended to around
a week, if your rosin is stored in an airtight container to prevent moisture from contaminating your oil, and kept
cool. After this time, the flavors and structure of your rosin will begin to deteriorate noticeably.
If you were to buy a pound of your favorite coffee and grind the whole pound straight away, no matter what you
did, the last cup would never taste as incredible as the first. Similarly, it is best to keep your flower fresh until
you are ready to extract. In doing so you will always have access to the freshest, finest quality rosin for your
enjoyment, each and every day.

Everyone keeps telling me to use press bags!
When should I use them?
A benefit of pressing smaller weights than commercial extractions is that you can do away with press bags when
pressing flower. The natural structure of the flower will keep the majority of your flower together, and prevent it
from running with your oil.
It’s only when pressing finer materials (i.e. kif, sift, pollen, or bubble hash, etc.) that a press bag will become
beneficial. As those materials are finer, and not in any way held together, they will have a higher potential of running
with your oil during extraction making it more difficult to collect your fresh rosin afterwards without plant matter.
When pressing materials other than flower, we recommend using 25 micron bags at most, and keeping the
dimensions of the bag smaller than the plates themselves. This micron count will prevent your materials from
running with the freshly extracted rosin without adversely affecting your results.
With the design of your press, your material will be compressed into the proper shape and thickness to maximize
heat-transfer through your material and result in the best possible extraction. We recommend pressing one to
four grams (1-4 grams) of bubble or kief in one press. Adjust your plates upwards by rotating the nut to your
right (counter clockwise) about 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Lower your temps and increase your times, start at 190ºF for 120
seconds. This will increase your achievable yields and ensure the life of your press for years to come!
Calibrating plate distance/ “pressure”
My Rosin Press is factory calibrated for 1 to 1.5 grams of flower.
The following instructions are for a “factory reset” of your plates’ calibration:
• Retrieve the wrench tool located on the back of the unit.
• Place the unit into the fully open position (handle up).
• Raise the top plate completely by rotating the Adjusting Nut
counterclockwise until it stops.
• Lower handle into the ‘closed and locked’ position.
• Rotate the Adjusting Nut clockwise until the plates touch and the wrench
resists further rotation.
• If further adjustments are needed, we recommend adjusting the nut in
¼-turn increments.
Be careful not to over-tighten.
Locking the handle of your unit down should feel satisfying. You don’t want your
plates to be so far apart that the handle falls down without any resistance, nor
do you want your plates set so closely together that you cannot lock the handle
down. When My Rosin Press is properly calibrated, the handle will lock down
into position in a satisfying manner without undue resistance from your unit.
Initial Setup
1. Plug unit into power outlet. The unit will power on in SAFE MODE
2. With plates closed, power on heated plates by pressing the top
button .
3. Without input, My Rosin Press will begin heating to its default
temperature of 220ºF.
4. To adjust to your desired temperature, press or . (2nd or third
button from the top, respectively).
5. Once your desired temperature has been reached (typically 6-12
minutes), the LED indicator light will turn green.
6. My Rosin Press is ready to use.

can damage the unit.

Pressing (The fun part)
1. Place your material between non-stick parchment paper.
2. Open the heated plates by lifting the handle and placing your prepared materials between the heated
plates.
3. Use right hand to lower handle and lock into downward position. You should experience little
resistance when doing so.
CAUTION: If you experience strong “push-back”, STOP.
Recalibrate the top plate of My Rosin Press before proceeding to reduce resistance.
4. When the plates close, the timer will begin counting upwards from 0 to 9999 seconds.
The timer will freeze once the plates are opened.
5. Once your desired result has been reached, place left hand on base to secure the press and raise the
operating handle to separate the heated plates.
6. Remove the prepared material from the heating plates and set on a cool surface.
7. Collect your processed material and enjoy!
8. To power off My Rosin Press, press and hold the Heater on/off button , before unplugging for
storage if desired.
Manufacturer Recommendations
• For best results, press 1–1 ½ grams of flower. This will compress your flower to the proper thickness to allow
efficient heat transfer, resulting in an optimal extraction.
• 60–90 seconds at 220ºF is a good general setting, though this will require fine-tuning depending on your results.
• Record your material and results! Use this information to adjust settings to improve results and quality after
first press.
• Note: When pressing kief or denser materials, adjust the plates up slightly for maximum efficiency. Locking
My Rosin Press should feel effortless when “locking” the handle into downward position.

Best Temperature Range and Time
When determining the pressing time and temperature there are several variables to consider.
The most important thing to remember when pressing rosin is that you have control over many variables.
Adjusting the settings on your Press gives you total control in determining the final results of your extraction.
Below are some important factors one may wish to consider before pressing:
• The quality of your starting material will directly influence the potential of your final product.
• Higher temperatures generally result in a greater yield, with a subdued flavor profile.
• Lower temperatures generally help maintain desirable flavor profiles. with a relative decrease in
potential yields.
• Your starting material’s moisture level can influence the consistency of the oil and potential yields.
Pressing times vary depending on, among other things, starting material and plate temperature.
For each starting material, we recommend experimenting and recording your notes for future reference. This will
allow you to consistently achieve what is most desirable for you, be it: heightened flavor, larger yield, or a careful
balance of both.
A good starting point for flower that you’re unfamiliar with is 220ºF pressed for 60–90 seconds in the locked
position. We recommend letting the plates warm your material for 10-15 seconds, prior to locking, by allowing the
weight of the upper plate to rest atop your starting material and then slowly closing applying minimal force. This
will get the oils warmed and bring your material closer to its ideal extraction temperature range. Because the
material is now warmer the extraction process is more efficient and allows for more favorable results.
My Rosin Press’ operating temperature ranges are 100ºF to 250ºF (37ºC to 121ºC).
The LCD display can toggle between Fahrenheit to Celsius with a click of a button.
Common rosin press temperature ranges for different materials:
• 160º-180ºF: Powder, and denser materials.
• 180º-220ºF: Flower
• 220º-250ºF: Dated, dried, or lower quality material.
The quality of your starting material will directly influence your results.
