Cryo Trim

๐Ÿ’ง Extraction First mentioned: Ep. 263

A trimming method where cannabis is frozen to cryogenic temperatures before mechanical or manual trimming. The extreme cold makes trichomes brittle and less likely to smear or degrade during the trimming process, resulting in better preservation of resin glands.

The Resinator's cryo trim function allows processors to trim live or dry product while maintaining trichome integrity. Discussed as superior to room-temperature trimming.
