What is Terpe Sauce?

Terp sauce is a cannabis extract eaten, drank as a tea, or used in cooking. It can also be infused into a beverage like wine or beer.

Terpe Sauce Extraction

Terpenes and cannabinoids can be extracted using any extraction method; they are not exclusive to terp sauce. Terpenes can also be extracted using other methods like butane extraction, CO2 extraction, and others.

Making terp sauce is essentially the same for all alcohol-based extracts, regardless of the type of alcohol used. The cannabis plant is ground up into a fine powder, and the oil or wax is then extracted from the plant material. Then the oil is separated from the plant wax. The terpenes and the cannabinoids are then pressed out of the extracted oil or wax.

• When using alcohols to extract cannabinoids and terpenes, one must keep them separate as they evaporate when exposed to air. The alcohol must be kept in a sealed container.
• When using alcohol or ethanol to extract the cannabinoids and terpenes, the temperature of the cannabis used must be above 235 °F (111 °C).

Otherwise, there will be a loss in quality and effectiveness of the extract.Terp sauce has been used in cooking and ingested as an edible since before the 1960s.  There are many reasons why people use terpenes and cannabinoids, like CBD & THC, as an ingredient in their recipes or infuse them into what they eat or drink.

Cooking with terpenes is similar to cooking with any other liquid but can be more difficult because of the alcohol.

General Terpe Sauce comparisons

One of the main reasons you may choose terp juice over other options is that it is much stronger than other extracts. Generally, it is advised to make sure the terpenes you are using are of top quality. When your terp juice is strong, the effects will be strong. Purchasing terp juice with a high percentage of THC and CBD will make your experience more potent and pleasant says the writers at Leafly.

The main difference between terp juice and live resin is that terp juice is made by blending different types of live resin. A live resin is essentially a liquid cannabis extract, but it can be extracted from whole plant material instead of hash or wax. Terp sauce is essentially a blend of live resins.
