Odds & Ends – The Cheap, Easy and Non-Explosive Way to Make Dabs at Home

High Times shared a simple make at home hash known as the “rosin tech” method. Seems rosin technique has been gaining in popularity recently, been coming across it often.

Stoners have embraced the simple hash-making method known as the rosin technique, or “rosin tech,” and it’s caused a run on Bed Bath & Beyond’s hair-straightener supply reminiscent of the Great Crème Brûlée Torch Shortage of 2014.

At first glance, this technique looks like classic stoner myth, but upon further investigation, this is definitely a legit hash-making method. Best of all, it’s easy to learn and safe to do at home (provided you’re comfortable handling a hair straightener). The method is solventless, the product is dabbable, and good results can be obtained with a wide range of starting materials.

The how-to portion is simple: All you need is a hair-straightening iron, some parchment paper and about 1 gram of buds, kief or bubble hash. First, fold a piece of the paper in half and put some weed in the middle. Set the straightening iron to medium-low heat and squeeze the parchment paper with a lot of pressure for about five seconds, then open it and remove the flattened, heated starting material. There will be a ring of oily resin around it; this is what you’re looking for. You can repeat this process two or three times on the same sample, and you should be able to pull a 7 to 10 percent return of a translucent (and dabbable) solventless oil.

1) A hair iron, some parchment paper and weed are all you need.

2) Set the iron to medium low and put your weed in the parchment paper.

3) Squeeze very hard for a few seconds.

4) Collect the squeezed-out resin on your dabber.
