  2. You mean co2 extraction.
     
  3. Forget solvents. Get a rosin press.
     
  4. no, not CO2. Think of it this way, if I could buy a bottle of compressed dry ice, put a cap on it & blast it through the extract tube with pressure behind it as if it were butane, but instead being "compressed dry ice" .
     
  5. You already need a couple thousand dollar system that can hold insane pressure levels to do C02 gas extracts, it's already c02. Dry ice would be much more $, plus a scientist to figure it all out... Something with pressurized dry ice wouldn't be efficient at all too.



    Get a rosin press. You can mess around with cheap ones, but even the expensive ones would pay themselves off. It's the future of weed, similar yields to any other methods, insane taste, and solventless!
     
  6. Rosin could def be the way of the future, they just need to get the prices on it on par with BHO. I heard ppl claim with a press they can get up to 20% return if thats the case why they charging $80 a G wholesale? But if you can get a good press and have access to good herb then its def worth it imo.
     
  7. It's just the hype for now. Give it a year.
     
  8. What you are describing is co2. Do you not know what dry ice is and what it would turn into if not in a solid state. You are pretty much saying how can i extract with pressurized co2

    Ya bro you're describing pressurized co2. If it was to stay in the dry ice form it would still be a solid. Unless you're talking about grinding up solid dry ice and somehow pressurizing that like a sand blaster. That's what a bottle of pressurized dry ice would be like if the particles didn't freeze back together or the nozzle somehow didn't constantly freeze. It would just chew your weed up and destroy it. I regularly do dry ice extraction. It makes keif which you could then make into rosin. Now the co2 gas that the dry ice puts off could be somehow captured and pressurized....or you could save the hassle and just go buy a pressurized tank of co2.

    Edit. Google says solid turns into co2 gas at -78°f so it definetly would still be cold enough to knock tric heads off.
