Live Resin Badder
Are you a marijuana enthusiast who is always on the prowl for something new? If you’ve been keeping up with the latest products and advancements in cannabis technology, then you have likely heard of live resin badder.
It may sound like a strange name, but it is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after forms of marijuana concentrate for the delivery of intense flavor profiles and highly enjoyable user experiences. In this blog post, we will dive deep into what live resin badder is, how it is made, and exactly why so many people are singing its praises. Let’s jump right in!
What is badder?
Badder is a cannabis concentrate that is manufactured in much the same way as live resin—but with an additional step. Manufacturers begin by flash-freezing freshly harvested cannabis which preserves more terpenes and cannabinoids than traditional methods like curing and drying. The result of this process is a sticky, wax-like product called badder.
Live resin badder takes it one step further by using solvents like butane or C02 to extract the oils from the frozen buds. This extra process leads to a cannabis concentrate that contains an even higher level of terpene profiles than regular live resin. Typically, live badder shatters when cold and can be broken down into smaller flakes for easy use in dab rigs.
While badder is usually manufactured using a butane extraction process, it can also be made with other solvents like propane, alcohol and even carbon dioxide. The extraction process begins with cannabis flowers or trims being soaked in the chemical of choice for several hours to several days.
This soaking process is used to effectively “extract” the plant’s THC, terpenes, and cannabinoids. The resulting liquid is then strained onto sheets before being purged (or cooked) until achieving a smooth texture reminiscent of whipped cream—aptly named ‘badder’.
