rnProcedureâ
-âStart by setting up your tools.â
-âPlace the hemp material in the mixing bowl, then put grain alcohol and stir the solution for 3–5 minutes using wooden spoon.â
-âMix thoroughly to expel resin. Make sure that your mixing bowl is large enough to contain the plant material and solvent.â
-âNext, filter the solution into the drainer then collect the initial raw extraction and placed it in the catchment container. Squeeze the liquid.â
-âTransfer the collected liquid to the double burner and heat it. Wait until it bubbles. Allow the alcohol to evaporate. rnKeep the temperature at minimal level. You can also turn it on and off to keep the gentle bubbling of the solution for 15–30 minutes.â
-âStir regularly. Do not allow the solution to be too hot. When you see alcohol evaporating, carefully mix the liquid using the silicone spatula.â
-âYour solution is ready. Transfer the oil to a bottle or containers before it becomes thick. Use a plastic syringe or pour the concentrated CBD oil to small, airtight and dark dosage bottles.
*While still warm, dilute the concentrated extract with coconut oil, olive oil or vegetable oil of your choice to make an excellent ointment for topical use.
