To Our Customers, We value your trust and want to ensure you achieve the best results safely. Recently, some users and competitors have promoted retrofitting bottle jack presses (e.g., 4-ton, 6-ton) with aftermarket pressure gauges—including designs using flexible rubber tubing. We strongly advise against such modifications. Here’s why: 1. Technical Limitations of Bottle Jack Systems Non-Linear Pressure MechanicsBottle jacks generate force via piston displacement, not direct linear pressure. Gauges (even with tubing) measure hydraulic chamber pressure, which does NOT equal the actual force applied to your rosin bags. Elastic Tubing Exacerbates InaccuracyRubber tubing expands under pressure, degrades with heat, and dampens hydraulic pulses. These...

What's the THCA?THCA (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid) occurs naturally in raw cannabis plant materials. In contrast to THC, THCA is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid. As the plant dries, THCA slowly converts to THC. Alternatively, being exposed to heat and sunlight will also THCA is converted to THC. Heat speeds up this conversion through a procedure known as decarboxylation.
