I have a few questions regarding the making of RSO.
Is it necessary to dry buds before making RSO or can fresh buds be used?
Given that I don’t intend to smoke any of this, is there an optimum time to soak the buds in solvent?
I’ve read that soaking buds too long increases the amount of chlorophyll absorbed into the solvent. Does this really matter as I won’t be smoking it and therefore taste is irrelevant to me.
Does leaving the bud soak longer have any benefit like increasing the strength/potency of the oil?
Does the bud need to be decarbed before making RSO? I intend to use a rice cooker to remove the solvent so will this process decarb the bud?
Thanks.
