trichomechaser Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I'm looking into potentially picking up a press, but want to ask if anyone has any local suggestions that they can vouch for. Rosinpress.co.za has some really nice presses at a good price, but I've heard from someone who has been waiting months for his parts to arrive as they shipped him an incomplete unit. Would definitely need to be under R10k I also remember @Stinger96 had a post up with some presses, but can't find that post - drop me a DM if they're still available.

biometrics Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 (edited) I want to buy a Rosin Press. Any updates on local suppliers? These are the ones I found so far, awaiting pricing on some of them. Price range is R5,000 to R30,000 with several in the R6,000-R8,000 range which seems to be the sweet spot.http://www.rosinpress.co.za/https://marijuanasa.co.za/product/e15-rosin-press/https://hydroponic.co.za/hydroponics/rosin-press/https://hydroponic.co.za/hydroponics/rosinbud-m1-rosin-press/https://amadab.co.za/product/4x3-10t-hydraulic-heat-press-dual-heating-platens/https://vapestore.co.za/rosin-x-auto (out of stock and they are getting new models in 4-5 weeks)https://roguerosin.co.za/ram-rosin-press/https://www.gumtree.co.za/a-other-electronics/other/rosin-press-for-sale/1006134701670910051577909https://www.gumtree.co.za/a-other-business+to+business-items-for-sale/other/professional-rosin-press-hand-crank-duel-heated-plate/1005660973450912446748409https://www.gumtree.co.za/a-other-business+to+business-items-for-sale/other/high-pressure-hydraulic-oil-extract-oil-press-rosin-press-with-double-sided-heating-press-plates/1005661170990912446748409https://www.biltongandbudz.co.za/product/rosin-press-manual/https://thebestgrow.co.za/product/rosin-press-monkey-boy/https://thebestgrow.co.za/product/rosin-press-machine-gorilla/https://aeradix.co.za/product/rosinbud-m1-rosin-press/ The cheapest device is the Rosinbud M1 for R5,000. It's a bit manual for my taste. I'd rather spend a few R1,000 more for a hydraulic or crank device. Any feedback and recommendations?

It was upgraded to a 15ton press and is going for R8500. I am currently awaiting a test press to see if I am happy with the product. Should of had it by now but he can not stay ahead. Will post my findings in a month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biometrics Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 So the one Gumtree enquiry for this press: Led me to Generic Machines, it's R6,000 and I must say it's looking like the best at this price point so far: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biometrics Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) Think I’m going for the Bulldog Press. It looks really well engineered. Has a different design from most. Owner has been responsive incl making a video. Price is ok at R7,500 incl a starter kit and delivery. SA made. Anyone here have one?

PsyCLown Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Please let us know what you decide regarding the rosin press. I'd love to get one, but they are a bit pricey... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biometrics Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Here's a much more affordable unit: http://just-cannabis.co.za/product/mini-rosin-press/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biometrics Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Bought the locally made Bulldog Presses rosin press. Good god this is well engineered. It weighs 18 kg! A bit more expensive (R6,000 vs R7,5000) than Chinese and other locally made presses, but totally worth it. Just waiting for the terpenes to arrive this week and I'll fire it up and make my first vape juice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biometrics Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 First test press. Used some under mature (long story) Dutch Passion Blueberry. Was probably 3g. The resulting goo can be dabbed but for vaping you need to liquify it (awaiting). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsyCLown Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 What yield did you get with the DP Blueberry? I believe 20% and above is decent? Which is 0.6g of rosin from 3g of bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
