Pressure:
Once your unit reaches set temperature you're ready to start pressing. Follow recommended pressure as advised by Touch on screen, there are three preset pressure
settings that you can toggle threw which would be low, medium and high which are available by pressing the bag pressure square button repeatedly. Note the pressure
is calculated using the preset bag size you choose from. If your using a non NugSmasher® bag select the button to right of home button and you can manually input your
bag dimensions which will give you recommended surface bag area calculations. Once you have your material between parchment paper
slowly start raising plates by pumping handle. It is key to do this slowly to properly build heat into your material. The entire pressing process should be between 90-120
seconds depending on your strain. There are several videos available online on the NugSmasher® social Instagram account as well as the NugSmasher® YouTube
channel that are very beneficial for techniques and tips of your rosin extraction. Note the leverage designed with your pump handle is only designed for hand operation.
Do not use any other leverage device or foot to push handle down as you will cause damage not covered by warranty. Visit Terp Files at NugSmasher®.com/view-public-
rosin-data/ for great reference to strains, temps and unit settings used.

Ideal Temperature:
To adjust temperature simply select arrows up or down on display (red circle), also note that there
are several preset common temperatures that can quickly be toggled threw for convenience.
Note: NugSmasher® Touch is set in Fahrenheit. The ideal pressure and temperature will vary
depending on strain and growing techniques so don't be discouraged on your results when
you press new material. We recommend when pressing a new strain to start at approx. 220
degrees for flower and notate your yield results (weight of material in vs. rosin out). Perform
additional test presses and drop 5-10 degrees per press until you notice your yield percentage
starting to drop. Adjust back to the previous temp and that will be your ideal temp for that strain.
It is advised to have a thermal temp gun to verify and check temperatures from time to time.
Use our temperature test strips included with your unit (also available for purchase at
NugSmasher®.com), unless in a pinch use a small piece of electrical tape as the high
gloss on heat plates will affect accurate temp readings if using a thermal temp gun. (As
