Should rosin filter bags be inside or outside the seam?

Rosin filter bags should be inside the seam. When using a rosin press, place the material (such as flower or hash) inside the bag, fold the open end, and position it within the seam of the parchment paper. This ensures that the bag remains securely enclosed during the pressing process, preventing any leakage or contamination. Happy pressing! 

Are there any tips for maximizing yield during pressing by rosin filter bags?

1. **Quality Material**:

   Start with high-quality flower or hash.

   The better the starting material, the higher the yield.

   
   

   2. **Even Pressure**: 

        Ensure even pressure across the plates. 

        Uneven pressure can lead to inconsistent results.

   3. **Temperature Control**: 

        Experiment with different temperatures. 

        Lower temps (180°F to 220°F) preserve terpenes, while higher temps (220°F to 250°F) yield more rosin.

   4. **Pre-Press**: 

        Pre-press your material into a puck or cylinder. 

        This helps distribute pressure evenly during pressing.

   5. **Bag Placement**: 

        Place the rosin bag inside the seam of the parchment paper. 

        This prevents leakage and contamination.

    6. **Slow Press**: 

          Apply pressure gradually. 

         Slow presses allow for better extraction without damaging the material.

     7. **Collect All Rosin**: 

           Scrape off all rosin from the parchment paper. 

           Don't leave any behind!

   Remember, practice and experimentation lead to better results.
