What is The Best Rosin Press to Buy? Best Rosin Presses
Rosin extraction is safe and easy for both home and commercial growers because it doesn’t require any solvents with which to extract cannabinoids, nor does it require extensive safety measures as some other extraction methods do. But for rosin extraction to be most efficient – and produce the highest yield – professionally designed rosin presses are ideal. Today, rosin presses can be found in almost any shape, size, form, and capacity. Here are some of our favorite rosin presses for both commercial and personal use.
As outlined in our Rosin Press Buying Guide, the best rosin press will depend on your needs, so consider these questions when purchasing a rosin press:
- Is it for personal or commercial use?
- How many hours a day/week do you intend on using the rosin press?
- How much material will you need to press each time?
- How important is space or portability to you?
- How does the environment around you look like? Are you in an environment that can tolerate noise for several hours during the day? (This question is specifically for pneumatic presses)
Best Rosin Presses to Buy in 2023
Best Overall Rosin Press
NugSmasher XP
Why we like it:
The Nugsmasher XP delivers up to 12 tons of pressure with its manual pump arm. The 6 x 4-inch plates make it ideal for extracting larger quantities. You can extract as much as 28 grams, which you may use for kief brick and hash. As a bonus, the XP pressure gauge and temperature control ensure you get the best rosin possible: no burns and blowouts.
Other noteworthy offerings from NugSmasher
NugSmasher Mini
The NugSmasher Mini features the same great design, 2.5" x 2.5" square plates, with a squish capacity of 2-tons or 3-5 grams.
NugSmasher PRO
The NugSmasher Pro is a true workhorse of a press from a great brand name. It comes packed with a whopping 20-ton capacity, and monstrous 7"x10" plates, allowing you to squeeze over 100 grams.
Best Handheld Rosin Press
Ju1cebox
Why we like it:
Designed to take with you wherever you go, the Ju1cebox rosin press is as compact as a woodshop clamp and fits inside your bag. With its 1.5-inch square heat plates, you can easily extract rosin that's good enough for personal consumption.
Best DIY Heat Plate Kit
Dulytek 3" x 8" Retrofit Rosin Press Kit
Why we like it:
Affordable and quality rarely conjoins together in the same sentence, but we're certain it does for the Dulytek 3" x 8" Retrofit Rosin Press Kit. What you get with this heat plate kit is a pair of large 3" x 8" plates, enough to fit an ounce of material at a time. Couple this heat plate kit with one of the recommended A or H-frame hydraulic presses outlined in our DIY rosin press guide, and you've got yourself a lean, mean, pressing machine that rivals the yield of brand-name presses in the several thousand dollar ranges for a fraction of the price.
Highest Yielding Rosin Press
Triminator TRP Stack
Why we like it:
As the name suggests, the Triminator TRP Stack is stacked against the competition (pun intended). It's the only press that features 3 plates, allowing you to press twice as much as any other press in the market. Designed to produce the most terpene-rich rosin in the least amount of time, it features 6” X 10” plates and pressure output of 25 tons (50,000lbs) of force.
If you like the Triminator TRP Stack but think 3 plates are overkill...
Triminator TRP
A less-equipped but equally capable model is the TRP which features the same great design and the same 25-ton capacity less the extra plate.
Best Value Hydraulic Rosin Press
Sasquash M2
Why we like it:
The Sasquash M2 is a more affordable alternative to the V2 and the successor to the M1. But don't let the economical tag fool you: the Sasquash M2 can press up to 35 grams of buds or 52 grams of hash in one go with its 4 x 7-inch plates. Another nice thing about the Sasquash M2 is its open-back design, which makes the rosin collection easier, with nothing getting in the way of the plates.
Best Pneumatic Rosin Press
PurePressure Pikes Peak Rosin Press
Why we like it:
The Pikes Peak V2 Rosin Press is one of the most durable, innovative, user-friendly presses available today. Updated for 2017, the Pikes Peak Rosin Press comes with all-new touchscreen controls. The fully-enclosed pneumatic system means there is very little risk of contaminants from oils and other debris, and two sets of legs allow for operation both vertically and horizontally helping to accommodate space restrictions. The system features 10” X 2” (or 3”) plates, temperature controls of up to 300 degrees, and fully customized software.
If you are looking for more oomph & pressure...
Longs Peak
PurePressure recently released the Longs Peak Rosin Press. The Longs Peak can press up to 35g of Flower or 70g of kief/hash at a time thanks to the 8-tons of force it can put out.
