They look great, nice color too! Around here the more vivid oranges tend to be with resin, where rosin is usually more muted and/or lighter.
I’m grateful for how fast the rosin scene has progressed around here. And I hear you, I’ve had my fair share of lighter rosins. Sometimes that seems to indicate more muted flavor, but not always!
Yeah definitely. I appreciate the different colors, but it's not a great way to gauge quality.
The rosin game has been pretty neat to watch evolve. We've got a pretty wide variety of rosin producers, so it's coming in all colors & textures too. Some of the fresh press is almost like shatter, cold cured can be really thick batter, some of it is really oily.. and the colors run the gamut from babyshit green to virgin snow to electric orange..
I'll take the uhhhh... Baby Poop OG cold cure.
What's your preferred rosin consistency/form? As much as I love the freshness and flavor of fresh press, I find that shatter-y consistency to be 1) hard to maintain in storage, 2) hard to handle when trying to scoop a dab. Personally I prefer the cold cured batter/badder or sauce.
Agree 100%. I honestly think the fresh press would be more manageable if it were packaged in parchment paper like shatter frequently is. But expensive fresh press invariably comes in glass containers around here, and that just ends up being a pain and a half. Batters are where it's at.
