Frequently Asked Questions
How much terpene should I add per gram?
Start low and adjust up. A conservative starting range is 1 to 2 percent by weight or volume, and many formulations use less than 1 percent to hit the flavor you want. It is easier to add more than to fix an overpowering blend, so begin small and increase after testing.
Are these terpenes food grade?
Yes. Our terpenes are derived from naturally sourced, food-grade ingredients and are 100 percent botanical-derived, with no fillers, oils, or unnecessary additives. Food grade means they meet safety standards for use, but they must always be diluted before use and handled by someone familiar with proper formulation.
Do these terpenes contain any cannabinoids like THC or CBD?
No. These are botanical-derived terpene blends only. They contain no cannabinoids, so they add aroma, flavor, and viscosity control to a base material without adding THC or CBD.
Can I use these with distillate or concentrates?
Yes. These terpenes integrate into distillates, live resin, rosin, concentrates, and botanical infusions while maintaining clarity and helping prevent clouding. Add at a low percentage and mix thoroughly with glass or stainless steel tools.
How should I store terpenes to keep them fresh?
Store in a sealed container in a cool, dark place, ideally below 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep them away from heat, open flame, and sunlight, since terpenes are volatile and flammable. Proper storage preserves potency and shelf life.
Do I need to dilute terpenes before use?
Yes, always. Terpenes are highly concentrated and should never be used undiluted. Blend them into a compatible carrier or base such as distillate, oil, or wax at a low percentage, then test and adjust.
