Hey all, was just getting into rosin pressing and was wondering if there is any way to extract d-limonene from orange peels without a still? And if possible would I be able to add this to my rosin for flavor?

No terpene levels are balanced, you wont match that or dose correctly.

So far ive seen nothing to suggest we can artificially boost terpenes with a good result.

There is a marked difference between orange oil (your title) and d-limonene. The former is considered an 'extract', the latter is considered a 'terpene hydrocarbon' Either or will require distillation. One is food grade, the latter is not. I would do a full body of research before I went too far. It's a nice sounding idea though...

Good luck.

Thanks for all the responses i'll let you guys know how it goes.. cant hurt to try. But yes I will probably just use a still to extract the limonene. trying to avoid vg and propylene glycol.
