CBC products' characteristics are described in terms of how they are made and what they do. These terms refer to the product's cannabinoid content. A full spectrum product will typically contain all of the original cannabinoids (including a trace amount of THC that will not get you high). With the exception of THC, all cannabinoids are abundant.
What you may be unaware of is a third, slightly less common option advocated by some of the world's most well-known CBC users – professional athletes. The third type of CBC is CBC isolate.
You may be wondering what a Bulk CBC Isolate is. It is, as the name implies, entirely CBC.
Many athletes and others who are subjected to regular drug testing rely heavily on CBC isolate products to provide the needed boost while avoiding the risk of THC.
Before we get into celebrity endorsements and all of the applications for CBC isolate, let's take a closer look at how it's made.
How Is CBC Isolate Made?
The process of creating Wholesale CBC Isolateis both simple and complex. It's straightforward in that there aren't many steps to follow. Meanwhile, the process's complexity is due to the meticulous scientific work required to ensure a pure product.
The first factor that adds to the process's complexity is the lack of a universally accepted method of extracting Bulk CBC Isolate. However, because the majority of CBC isolate manufacturers use CO2 or ethanol extraction, we'll go over these two popular methods before discussing how Wholesale CBC Isolate is refined and added to products.
Extraction of CO2
When done correctly, supercritical (or subcritical) CO2 extraction is the most advanced and efficient method of extraction in the CBC industry today. To remove all cannabinoids and terpenes from hemp flower, carbon dioxide is used at extremely high pressure and extremely low temperature. When done correctly, this method can produce an extremely pure product; however, the steep learning curve and high cost of equipment frequently cause businesses to stick with tried-and-true methods like ethanol extraction.
Extraction of Ethanol
While not as cutting-edge as supercooled extraction, ethanol extraction is a straightforward, safe, and efficient method of extracting CBC from the entire flower. High-grade grain alcohol (also known as ethanol) is used as a solvent in this process to extract CBC and other cannabinoids from hemp flowers. Both methods are extremely effective, and the decision is entirely subjective. The next universal step, regardless of how the cannabinoids are extracted, is winterization.
Winterization
After extracting the cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant, they must be separated to create a Bulk CBC Isolate through a process known as “winterization.” And, while winterization isn't exactly what it sounds like, it's close. For those of you in colder climates, we're not talking about preparing your home for a long, snowy winter. Temperatures, on the other hand, are expected to plummet significantly.
Winterization, which is similar to ethanol extraction but with a twist, entails soaking the CBC flower extract in alcohol and freezing it until the pure Bulk CBC Isolate is separated from unwanted substances such as fats, chlorophyll, and other plant matter.
You should end up with a fine, white Wholesale CBC Isolate powder with no detectable THC or other cannabinoids.
