Why is decarboxylation important?
CBD oil is gowing popularity, majority person know the basic process from hemp to pure cbd oil like this: extraction crude oil, dewaxing filteration, evaporation to remove solvent or ethanol recovery, distillation to get pure cbd oil
, crystallization. But few person understand the chemical reasons why cbd has to be decarboxylated prior to consumption. -
In fact, decarboxylation (also could called “decarb”)is an important step to produce cbd oil, which is refers to the chemical reaction that removes a carboxyl (COOH) group from THC-A and CBD-A.So why is decarboxylation important?
-
1. Through decarboxylation process to converting CBDA into CBD, as if without decarboxylated, there isn’t naturally occurring CBD present in hemp. The CBDA is found in an acidic state, which is CBDA. So decarboxylation process is the necessary process to convert CBDA into CBD.
2. Reduce the risk of botulism, if you don’t go through the decarboxylation process correctly, botulism bacteria can easily grow in things like cannabutter and canna-oil.
3. Decarboxylation process is simply to be able to activate the various therapeutic compounds of CBD.

Want to do decarboxylate, all you need is apply heat.This sounds easy, but please believe it couldn’t be done in a kitchen, but need to be done in an extraction lab, which requires heating under a certain temperature and a certain time, even we need to consider the oil or ethanol recovery systems, etc. So welcome contact: [email protected]
