Colorado Clean CO2 Boutique Oil

The CO2 extraction process allows compounds to be extracted with little damage and low toxicity; it utilizes a high-pressure vessel containing cannabis, which then has Supercritical CO2 inserted into the vessel, and pumped through a filter where it is separated from the plant matter once the pressure is released. Finally, the supercritical CO2 evaporates and is dissolved into the cannabinoids.
ABSOLUTES / WINTERIZATION – Due to the extremely low temperature of extracting with CO2 our crude oil it does not require further processing to eliminate the fats, lipids and waxes that are present in other raw whole-plant extracts. The extract produced is one of the purest available.

Terpenes are fragrant oils that give cannabis its aromatic diversity. These oils are secreted in the flower’s sticky resin glands, the same ones that produce THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids. Terpenes are by no means unique to cannabis; they can be found in many other herbs, fruits, and plants as well.

DISTILLATES - The final processing step in refinement of extracted oils can be provided in the form of a distillate fraction in which the cannabinoids are isolated into separate fractions from the plant terpenes and flavonoids and any other, less desirable, residuals in the crude oil (chlorophyll, lipids, etc.). The resulting oil is very light in color, has almost no taste or aroma, is very consistent, solvent-free and fully decarboxylated. The cannabinoid content is also higher (in the range of 80%) as compared to crude oil.

FORMULATION – Some clients desire a crude oil extraction without additional refinement, but also need the THC at compliant levels to be sold as a raw hemp product. In this process, we mix our CBD oil with any carrier oil supplied by the customer to reduce the naturally occurring and concentrated THC levels in the crude oil extraction to compliant levels.

DISTILLATES - The final processing step in refinement of extracted oils can be provided in the form of a distillate fraction in which the cannabinoids are isolated into separate fractions from the plant terpenes and flavonoids and any other, less desirable, residuals in the crude oil (chlorophyll, lipids, etc.). The resulting oil is very light in color, has almost no taste or aroma, is very consistent, solvent-free and fully decarboxylated. The cannabinoid content is also higher (in the range of 75%) as compared to crude oil.

ISOLATES -  The final processing step in refinement of extracted oils can be provided in the form of an isolate fraction. The resulting white power has almost no taste or aroma, is very consistent, solvent-free and fully decarboxylated. The cannabinoid content is in the 99% range.
