Look into uber thicker made by floraplex
Thanks, they are sending us some samples to test
What’s olive squaline?
You don’t have to use Uber thick I have used some diluent by Floraplex for cbd carts I used isolate powder which was 99.6% so it was total powder I used 1part cbd to 3/4 part terp an diluent making 1ml at about 667 mg cbd per but I feel I should ha e used 1part cbd to 1/2part diluent an flavor . And don’t have doubts about Floraplex they are very good suppliers most products from them are very pleasing . Anyways hope that helps
Sweet, I was going to try make a cbd cart with he isolate and thickener/dilutent (have both on hand) from floraplex myself.
Seek out @qma for his wisdom. His phone consulting price is very reasonable and he has an answer for everything.
Try using there strawberry cough an gelato 50/50 together no lie just tried other day really decent flavor just a thought since I know u probably have the samples they were giving away . Who doesn’t love freebies right
How do you keep them from crystalizing? I have to get our distillate below 60% to keep it from crystalizing
Squalane* is a terpene sourced from olives. neutral flavor, great dilutent- I believe floraplex is using it though they said squalene to throw people off.
I’m not a chemist, but in the past couple years we have been selling cbd, I’ve never see a distillate over 60% that didn’t crystalize. Ours is around 93% and is hard as a rock after a week or two. I’m interested to know what you have though because this is a big issue for us, have you had it tested to know cbd%?
LNK, when we receive our distillate (93%), we melt it down and turn it into “pancakes”. Then break it up so it’s easier to measure out as needed. It crystalizes fully in about two weeks, but we have found a faster method to do it in about 3 days, see photo below.
Rowan, I ordered Squalane from a couple different sources, and both of them came with warnings “For external use only. Not for internal use.” They also contain 0.5% Vitamin E (Antioxidant). I’m asking because I honestly don’t know, what makes you think Floraplex is using this? I can’t seem to find any info online on vaping Squalane. Thanks for your feedback.

Sorry it was Gold Coast not flora.
Squalane is the more stable form.

If you are charging $30^/cart for a 𝒻𝓊𝓁𝓁 𝓈𝓅𝑒𝒸𝓉𝓇𝓊𝓂 cart, should your customers not get a premium experience? now, as the market becomes competetive, what will set you apart?
Also though, true terpenes used to use squalane/squalene before they switched to mineral oil. Also The Flavored Herb (TFA/The Perfumer’s Apprentice) has a squalane diluent as well

Squalane doesn’t dissolve CBD well
Thank you for that, I missed that one
The mineral oil is hilarious. Not really but it really is a little crazy.
I just had some crystallize on me using squalane- any idea why? .6g in there. Using the a-bisabolol with .7g no prob…
Well that’s a bad idea now isn’t it…
