Dr. Jon and Randall Thompson Discus Decarboxylation, the different methods, and benefits of retrieving terpenes directly from the biomass.
Decarboxylation is not only important, it is essential in the hemp and cannabis extraction process. The decarb process is the process of introducing heat in order to convert cannabinoids like THC and CBD from their acidic forms to their neutral forms so that the human body can absorb and use them. Without this, cannabinoids would be ineffective when consumed. So, when and how should decarboxylation be performed in the extraction process? How is this done effectively? What other benefits does decarboxylation have in your operation? In this episode of extrakTALKS. Dr. Jon and Randall Thompson discuss the process of decarboxylation and the benefits it holds including more efficient extraction, high quality terpene recovery and more.
