Why is Decarboxylation Important?
Actually, people won’t get high by eating raw cannabis. The reason is that raw cannabis is rich with acidic cannabinoids with almost no trace of the psychoactive cannabinoids. Though possessing other useful properties, acidic cannabinoids are non-psychoactive. Their active state can be converted into by decarboxylation process. What is Decarboxylation? The decarboxylation is a kind […]
What are Differences Between Chiller and Refrigerator?
Definitions of Chiller and Refrigerator What is a Chiller? A chiller can be regarded as a cooling system that cools materials down by removing heat from a liquid via a vapor-compression or absorption refrigeration cycle.
