How to Make Delicious Frothy Rosin Jam at Home

What is Rosin Jam?

Rosin, also known as resin, is a sticky, sap-like substance that can be extracted from pine trees and cannabis plants. Rosin jam refers to rosin that has been whipped and whipped into a creamy, jam-like consistency.

Rosin jam is enjoyed by many for its terpenes and cannabinoids. It can be consumed as-is or used as an ingredient in edibles, topicals, and more. The whipping process incorporates air into the rosin, making it lighter, fluffier, and easier to handle and dose.

Benefits of Whipped Rosin Jam

Some key benefits of whipping rosin into a jam include:

• Lighter, fluffier texture
• Easier to portion and handle
• Enhanced flavor and aroma
• Faster onset when consumed
• More precise dosing

How to Make Rosin Jam

Materials Needed

To make homemade rosin jam, you will need:

• Rosin - pressed hash oil from cannabis plants
• Whipped cream chargers - N2O chargers
• Whipping siphon - stainless steel with 1 pint capacity
• Balloon whisk attachment
• Parchment paper
• Glass jar for storage

Step 1: Prepare the Rosin

Start by collecting high quality solventless rosin extracted through a rosintech press. The rosin should have a shatter-like or taffy-like consistency. For best results, the starting material should have a high terpene content.

Allow any trapped butane to fully purge from the rosin if using BHO extracted varieties. Cold cure the rosin for at least 2 weeks for best flavor and aroma.

Step 2: Load the Whipping Siphon

Unwrap the rosin and place it in the 1 pint whipping siphon. Ensure the siphon is completely clean and free of any residual oils. Seal the top portion back onto the bottom chamber tightly.

Step 3: Charge the Siphon

Take a whipped cream charger, making sure it is completely upright and insert it into the top of the siphon. Screw a balloon whisk attachment on tightly. Charge the siphon by screwing the N2O charger in firmly until you hear a release and the gas enters the chamber.

Shake the siphon for about 5 seconds. Dispense a small test amount onto parchment paper to check the consistency. Repeat charging and shaking until the rosin takes on a whipped, frothy appearance.

Step 4: Transfer to Storage

Once sufficiently whipped, unscrew the top of the siphon and spoon the rosin jam into a glass storage jar. Ensure the jar has an airtight seal. Place in a cool, dark space like the refrigerator or freezer.

How to Use Rosin Jam

The applications of rosin jam are endless. Here are just a few ways to enjoy this whipped concentrate:

Consume Raw

Scoop some onto a dabbing tool and consume it raw just like traditional solventless rosin. The lighter texture makes it easier to dose.

Enhance Flower

Roll some into ground cannabis flower before packing a bowl or rolling a joint. This infuses extra terpenes and potency.

Fill Capsules

Fill gelatin capsules with the jam to make single-serve doses that are easy to take on-the-go.

Bake Edibles

Stir some rosin jam into cookie, brownie, cake, or other infused batter for an extra kick.

Whipped Topping

Use it as a topping over ice cream, milkshakes, pancakes, etc. for a tasty, medicated treat.

Massage Oil

Whip some into a carrier oil like coconut or jojoba oil for a soothing topical massage oil.

Tips for Best Results

Follow these tips when making and handling rosin jam:

• Always use high quality, freshly pressed rosin
• Whip in a cool environment to prevent destabilizing
• Avoid direct sunlight or heat when storing
• Use clean tools and glassware
• Whip thoroughly until light and fluffy
• Seal air tight for maximum freshness

Experiment with different strains, textures, and terpene profiles to customize the flavor and potency of your homemade rosin jams.

FAQs

What kind of rosin works best for making jam?

Solventless fresh frozen rosin with high terpene content and a shatter, sugar, or taffy-like consistency tends to whip best into a light, smooth jam.

Can you use kief or hash to make rosin jam?

Yes, you can press kief or hash into rosin using a heat press and then whip the pressed rosin into jam. Start with high quality ice water hash or dry sift kief.

How long does whipped rosin jam last?

Properly stored in an airtight glass jar away from light and heat, rosin jam can last up to 6 months while retaining peak flavor and potency.

What's the best way to use rosin jam?

Rosin jam is very versatile. It can be consumed raw, added to flower, baked into edibles, whipped into topicals, filled into capsules, or used as a flavorful whipped topping.
