Rosin For Rookies: What You Need To Know About Live Rosin and Cured Rosin

Rosin is the name of the extract created when avoiding the use of solvents to extract or separate trichomes from the plant matter. Rosin utilizes flower or kief that has been dried, live rosin uses freshly harvested flower. Moisture from the fresh flower is necessary when creating the bubble hash needed to create live rosin. Unlike BHO, PHO, live resin, or CO2 oil, rosin uses no solvents for the extraction process unless you include the water used to make the bubble hash.

Both types of rosin utilize pressure to create the final product. Live rosin has an additional step. There are distinct differences between live rosin and cured rosin. These differences appear in the consistencies of the products, the solventless methods used to create the rosin, and the flavor profile created.

The process used to make either product is similar outside of a key series of steps. You can make rosin from the comfort of your own home using a hair straightener and parchment paper. The pressure and heat applied to the broken up cannabis sandwiched between the hair straightener causes the rosin to ooze off the plant matter.

The process to create live rosin has a few more steps that are crucial to creating a superior product. Premium plant material must be used when creating ice hash. You want the best terpene profile and total trichome coverage.

The process after you create the ice hash is equally important. Once the hash has been freeze dried it is ready to be squished. Live Rosin is the product that results from squishing the hash in a heated press.

Next time you’re picking up concentrates, see what kind of rosin they have. The price might be a little higher, but it’s worth it to try at least once because the terpenes are one-of-a-kind.
