Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The POT by NOIDS is designed for high efficiency.
Decarboxylation: You can expect near-complete conversion (around 100%) from the acidic form (CBDa) to the active cannabinoids (THC or CBD) after decarboxylation. This means minimal to no CBDa remains post-decarb. However, it's important to note that there's typically a 5-10% loss of total CBD during the decarboxylation process, regardless of the method used.
Infusion: The efficiency of infusion depends on the chosen method and the type of oil used. Here's a general breakdown:
High Yield (90-95%): Olive oil or butter offer the highest infusion rates for oils.
Medium Yield (85-90%): Some other oils, like coconut oil, may have a slightly lower infusion rate (around 1-5% less) depending on the specific oil.
High Yield (Near 100%): Alcohol extraction for wax concentrates can achieve close to a 100% yield.
It's important to remember that herb extraction and infusion involve various factors, and yield calculations can differ based on the methodology used. However, proper decarboxylation is always emphasized as the most crucial step for maximizing the overall yield.
