10kg of biomass at 10% CBD =1kg of actual cannabidiol.
lets assume 85% extraction efficiency in that CUP, and a potency of 75% CBD on your crude.
…now your 10kg yields 0.85kg of actual CBD.
as the CBD is only at 75% you actually get 1.13kg of crude.
if that’s what you’re calling “CBD oil”, you’re done. understand that if you’ve used “hemp” at 10% CBD, your crude is now at 3-4% THC and is non-compliant.
No worries. Asking the correct question when you don’t know what you’re looking for is a non-trivial task.
While I can no longer claim to have read even 1/2 of what has been posted here, nor claim to remember even 1/2 of that, knowing the answer is here makes finding it easier, and cross linking related threads helps all of us.
Yes, were using a very manual form of chromatography, self packed 14L columns and collecting fractions manually and testing those fractions with our hplc.
where is it when you’re done?!?
How efficient was it?
eg 454g of 10% biomass should contain 45.4g of CBD.
if you’re getting 34g of 100% CBD you’re at 34/45.4 => about 75% efficiency, and are leaving 25% of your target behind.
if however, that 34g of “CDB” is actually at 60% CBD (which is my guess at unwinterized CO2 crude), then you’ve only got 20.4gram of CBD and you’re looking at less than 50% extraction efficiency.
