I’m doing a school project, and for it I am comparing various forms of extraction of cannabis/hemp. As part of this, I’d like to be able to compare bubble hash, CO2 extractions, ethanol extractions, and hydrocarbon extractions.
If you have COA’s (primarily concerned with cannabinoids, but if you have terpenes or anything else I’d love that as well!) of products produced through any of these methods and are willing to let me use them in a research paper, please do send them my way!!! Information on the specifics of your extraction process would make these COA’s significantly more valuable as well.
Any COA’s used with be properly cited (if you want to be personally cited, or have your lab cited, just let me know).
I’m writing an argument for why hydrocarbon extracts are the best combination of purity, representation of the profile of the biomass and it’s effects, and affordability.
I don’t want that to discourage anyone from posting their best bubble hash, ethanol, or co2 extract COA’s. I hope to fairly represent each method.
I’m not sure if @AshevilleExtracts has the time to help with that but every time I see him he’s got half a dozen new labs on his hemp bho for terps and cannabinoids his record keeping on that stuff is top notch
Just fyi, if it helps your arguments, bubble hash made with outdoor grown material usually flunks a mold test. Also, from my own experience, cbd and cbg bubble hash is much higher in % potency than thc bubble. I presume cannabinoids are not evenly distributed, the former two are more concentrated in trichromes.
You saved me the trouble of having to write the paper, thank you!!
Love these points y’all! Know anyone that does bubble hash or Co2 that I could reach out to directly? Definitely will reach out to Asheville for hydrocarbon stuffs
May I inquire about where you go to school and what class this is for? Great work! Don’t forget that butane is an FDA approved, food grade solvent used to decaffeinate coffee and make the slurry used to form chicken mcnuggets.
I’m a Chemical Engineering student at UCSD right now.
This is for a public rhetoric and communication course for Sixth College called CAT 125. The final assignment is a research paper or website on any topic we want as long as we make an argument for something, include some primary sources, and a few other parameters, so I figure it’s a good excuse to compile some useful data.
Definitely has been one of the most fun general eds I’ve taken. For my midterm I did a presentation on solvent choice for cannabis and hemp extractions!
I’ll definitely take you up on that once the quarter is over. Would like to brainstorm what sort of information would be most useful for the community/industry, but that’s a conversation for a later date.
