Lol cbd batch coming right up!!!

lol my first time formulating CleanAF CBD’s vape juice I was like hmmm, guess ill just throw the pg, vg and cbd into a beaker and hit it with a homogenizer… back in the day when T free kilos were like $8k too… no matter what I did the VG and CBD just wouldnt blend… after lots of trial and error we figured out we had to dilute the cbd in PG first, and even then you cant go very high on the VG ratios or it falls out… it was a shitty but solid learning experience lol.

Yeah and if it’s not oil soluble then every bottle will have a completely different amount of cannabinoids in it.

I really don’t understand why people refuse to accept that you can’t mix cannabinoids with propylene glycol or glycerine.

You can mix cbd with PG, it blends very similar to cbd and MCT
(As long as you hit the pg/cbd with a homogenizer)

But not for long

CBD will not fall out of PG ever if mixed enough, you can go up to a 60/40 pg/vg ratio and not have the CBD fall out.

thats just from my personal experience after making 300-400 different batches. Its not 100% success rate, I assume that has to do with us pushing the limit and cbd content being slightly different with distillate batches. But a 70/30 100% should never fall out… as long as its done properly… it took a few months and like 100+ batches to finally nail the SOP, but its definitely possible without any other additives.

I found VG good for terp extraction, not so much for cannabinoids. Tastes good.

How many mg of cbd can you get in one gal of that mix?

Cannabinoids will mix into PG to a point relatively stable for several months, oxidation is more concern than the emulsion imo

However as mentioned when vg is added there’s a critical point where it all falls out. Adding straight to vg doesn’t work.

@Apothecary36 your soaking idea sounds cool even though seems like everyone is ignoring it. Compare to distillate and mct?

It takes a lot for me to not have an outburst like @Rowan

Theres no reason to try to aim for set amount of mg. Just do the most high quality soak possible and it will be a good product. Pg is not something I would add to a drink.

Sounds like something worth a try for personal fun
