To preserve as many precious terpenes as possible when making our Live Hash Rosin, Robust immediately freezes our freshly harvested plants. Then we use just ice, heat, and pressure to create ultra-pure and pungent extracts — all handcrafted in small batches.
Here's how to make sure you're preserving that terptastic liquid gold at home:
Keep rosin in the refrigerator
If you plan to have your rosin for longer than 3-7 days, you should keep it in the refrigerator to preserve as many terpenes as possible. If it’s not refrigerated, the rosin will start to degrade, altering the overall appearance, texture, and consistency.
Don't open your dabs while they're cold
After you get your dabs out of the refrigerator, wait until your rosin is at room temperature before opening the jar. This prevents condensation inside your container, and ultimately the destruction of your rosin.
Don't leave rosin in the sun
The heat and sun will cook your rosin and change how smooth it is.
Be careful not to leave rosin in a hot car!
Store pens upright
This prevents your pen from leaking and keeps the wick soaked with liquid so that it does not dry out.
These are general rules of thumb, but there are of course variations in strain and consistency that play a role in the quality of rosin and its shelf life.
