Abstract:
The process described below is a method of making tinctures starting with extraction of a full spectrum oil from a biomass, then activating the cannabinoids in the full spectrum oil, finally formulating tinctures using the activated full spectrum oil. Optional additional steps of winterization, distillation, and isolation increase the purity of the resulting product.

Claim (Index 1):
A process for the removal of cannabidiols from industrial hemp comprising the steps of:\n grinding the industrial hemp, resulting in ground industrial hemp; extracting cannabinoids from the ground industrial hemp comprising the steps of:\n placing the ground industrial hemp into a chamber of a supercritical fluid extractor; \n pressurizing the chamber using a supercritical fluid; \n allowing the mixture of supercritical fluid and ground industrial hemp to soak for a period of time; \n opening a drain to allow the supercritical fluid to pass into a vessel, the supercritical fluid now containing extracted oil; \n allowing the supercritical fluid to evaporate, leaving behind the extracted oil in the form of a resin; \n purging the resin of carbon dioxide comprising the steps of:\n filling a flask with resin; \n heating the resin to 240 degrees Fahrenheit; \n stirring the resin until no bubbles of supercritical fluid rise to the surface of the resin; \n allowing the resin to cool, resulting in a full-spectrum oil; \n winterizing the full spectrum oil comprising the steps of:\n mixing the full-spectrum oil with ethanol at a ratio of one part full-spectrum oil to three parts ethanol to create an oil-ethanol mixture; \n heating the oil-ethanol mixture to evaporate the excess ethanol; \n cooling the oil-ethanol mixture to 32 degrees Fahrenheit or below and holding for between 24 and 48 hours, during which time fatty and waxy materials precipitate out of the full-spectrum oil; \n filtering the oil-ethanol mixture to remove the precipitated fatty and waxy materials, resulting in a winterized oil; \n distilling the winterized oil comprising the steps of:\n heating the winterized oil to a temperature of 212 degrees Fahrenheit; \n applying a vacuum to the winterized oil of between minus 8 to minus 10 mmHg; \n increasing the temperature of the winterized oil to 302 degrees Fahrenheit, at which point the cannabinoids evaporate; \n collecting the evaporated cannabinoids, or distillate.
