We press it 5 times so that would make it a negative THC percentage hahaa, just kidding.
I don't think it posible to press all cannabinoids out of flower. But of course it is weaker in cannabinoids and terps.
How many times you press is not even important. If you press right the 1st time( low & slow, you hardly get something out of a 2nd press. For us to press a batch a 2nd time would not be worth the time & effort.
We wondering for a long time what to do with the chips. We had several ideas, but we never got around to it. Then one day we saw a other vendor offering decarbed bud and with success. So than we just start offering it and with a bigger success then we expected.
Yes, it is best to use it for edibles, tinctures, topical's etc. But you can smoke it or better vape it. What took us by surprise was that multiple people tried to smoke the decarbed chips and said the enjoyed it. Sound unpleasant to me, but if you enjoy it why not.
Just because a product doesn't make sense to you, doesn't mean it would not be beneficial to somebody else. Not everybody has the same budget or is interested in a product that is super strong.
Love,
