What is the best and fastest way to measure your cannabinoid products’ THC potency and CBD potency? B/R’s Near Infrared analyzers (a.k.a. The Gummy Gun) can instantly examine gummies, edibles, tablets, vape juice, and more. Measuring CBD and THC in edibles such as gummies can be time-consuming and error-prone. The most common method is to dissolve the edible in a solvent and then complete an HPLC […]
B/R Instrument has manufactured safe histology solvent recyclers since 1986 – that’s more than 35 years! Each new generation of recyclers we create is an opportunity to implement additional and improved safety features. Here are some of the safety features of the ProCycler and MiniProCycler series. Solvent Recycler Safety Reminders When starting a solvent recycling […]
Solvent Recycling just got easier with B/R’s touch screen ProCycler and MiniProCycler units. Read on to see how we have implemented the latest technology to improve safety, troubleshooting, and operator experience. Safety Reminders When starting a solvent recycling batch, the operator is prompted with safety reminders that ensure the distillation system is correctly configured. The operator […]
What’s the best way to measure THC, CBD, and more in real-time during CO2 extraction? The answer is Near Infrared. Save Time and Money with Near Infrared (NIR) Finding the best-operating conditions for your extractor can be a slow process. Extracting CO2 from cannabis presents some unique challenges – specifically with THC-a. How do you […]
Process For this THC remediation case study, we started with 40 kg of un-winterized, non-decarbed CO2 extract. We heated the material overnight using heat blankets to liquefy the extract for easy pouring. There was a significant amount of water mixed with this batch of extract. We raised the reactor lid and tilted the reactor forward […]
B/R’s THC Remediation SCB-15 has several advanced safety features to provide you with peace of mind. Reactor Lid Sensor Your operator will almost always remember to fasten the reactor lid closed before starting the remediation process. But what if they forgot? We’ve got you covered. The reactor lid has a sensor that detects when the […]
The software driving automated THC Remediation can make a huge difference in the safety, operation and traceability. Operating Parameters for your starting material The touch screen prompts the operator for starting material, weight, material type, and cannabinoid profile. This information is used to determine the optimum parameters for your starting material. The information also provides […]
Cold Trap During remediation, unwanted contaminants such as residual solvent, water, and terpenes are stripped from the oil and captured by the cold trap. The weight loss from the removal of these contaminants will depend on the number of contaminants in the starting material. About half the THC and some CBD also are captured by […]
How to Load the SCB-15 THC Remediation Reactor Loading a THC Remediation system with 100 liters of oil can be a chore. The SCB-15 has some nice features to make the loading process as painless as possible. The THC Remediation system lid is a large, stainless steel piece of technology with lighted viewing window, stirrer […]
The cannabinoid decarboxylation step is performed differently in nearly every lab. To create certain products, THCa, CBDa, CBGa, and many other cannabinoids must all get decarbed. Why and how does Decarb happen? One example is that CO2 extractors often decarb the biomass to improve their efficiency and yield. A second is when some manufacturers prefer […]
