GELATO TERPENES

Gelato Terpenes by Cali Terpenes

The Gelato Cannabis terpene profile by Cali Terpenes is a combination of botanically sourced terpenes with the aroma profile (terpene profile) characteristic of the terpene extraction from the famous American cannabis strain Gelato 33 (Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies).

Cali Terpenes are of 100% organic origin (plant-based).

In the production of fragrances (terpenes) by Cali Terpenes, we use certified raw materials of the highest quality, sourced from GMO-free, pesticide-free, and pollutant-free plantations.

Gelato terpenes do not contain cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBG, CBN,…).

Main Terpenes in Gelato

Caryophyllene, D-Limonene, Linalool, Beta-Pinene, Myrcene, B-Ocimene, Terpinolene, Alpha-Pinene.

Modulation of the Effect of Cannabinoids by Terpenes

Gelato terpenes act synergistically with cannabinoids, modulating their effects and providing a stimulating mental and physically relaxing sensation that's very pleasant, uplifting mood and combating stress.

Flavor and Aroma of Gelato Terpenes:

Gelato terpenes by Cali Terpenes possess a strong fruity, floral, and citrus aroma and flavor, with earthy and creamy notes.

Uses of Cali Terpenes

The cannabis aromas (terpene profiles) by Cali Terpenes are used in many different applications, but in the cannabis and vaping industry, they are primarily used to add the aroma and flavor of specific cannabis strains to products like:

• Vaping liquids (e-liquids).

• Cannabis extractions and concentrates (rosin, BHO, traditional hash, THC or CBD distillates for "vape cartridges" …)

• Hemp flowers or cannabis (buds).

Recommendations for Using Cali Terpenes

Cali Terpenes are 100% pure, without diluents or additives. They should be handled with care and not be consumed undiluted (except when tasting with Cali Terpenes borosilicate pipettes or vaporizers).

1ml of terpenes = 40 drops (0.025ml per drop from the 1ml dropper). One drop of terpenes represents approximately 0.25% in 10ml of base:

• 1 drop in 10ml = 0.25%
• 2 drops in 10 ml = 0.50%
• 4 drops in 10ml = 1%
• 8 drops in 10ml = 2%
• 12 drops in 10ml = 3%

*We always recommend testing from lower to higher quantities on the same base, as Cali Terpenes contribute an intense flavor and aroma easily due to their 100% purity.

E-Liquid Bases for Vaping:

• The recommended terpene ratio for imbuing e-liquid bases with enough flavor is between 1 to 3% of terpenes (though you could use up to 4%, with 2% being the most common).

• For example, suppose you want to flavor 10ml of e-liquid base, providing 2% of terpenes. You only need to add 0.2ml of terpenes.

• Maintaining the same ratio, if you have 100ml of e-liquid base, you should add 2ml of terpenes.

Cannabis Extracts and Concentrates:

• The recommended proportion of Cali Terpenes for providing sufficient flavor and aroma to dry extractions (traditional hash or dry hash...), as well as BHO (shatter, live resin, wax...), rosin, THC or CBD distillates... falls between 1 to 3% of terpenes (though you may use up to a maximum of 4%, with the most commonly used range being from 2 to 3%).

• As an example, let's assume you have 10g of a cannabis concentrate, like a distillate (commonly referred to as clear), and you want to add 3% terpenes. To do this, simply add 0.3ml of our terpenes.

• It's very useful to perform tests from smaller to larger quantities, for instance: 1 drop for 3g, 1 drop for 2g, 1 drop for 1g... carry out a tasting after a few days to appreciate the results of the different proportions used. This way, you'll know the ideal proportion before mixing it with the entire batch.

• It's vital to thoroughly mix everything to obtain a homogeneous result, and allow a resting/maceration period of at least 24/48 hours so that the terpenes can fully integrate.

Hemp or Cannabis Flowers:

Terpenes can also be used to flavor buds, of hemp or cannabis. It's not recommended to add more than 4% terpenes, and in some cases, the aroma to apply may need to be less as the flowers might already contain some of their own terpenes. An excess of terpenes would result in an overly intense and possibly unpleasant aroma.

The ideal method to apply terpenes to buds, flowers, and dried herbs is Terps Spray.

If you have small quantities of buds, you can use these liquid terpenes in a cosmetic sprayer or something similar to perform a similar (though not as professional) function to Terps Spray. It's also possible to use blotting paper with terpenes in the same container, but they are often more seamlessly integrated when sprayed on buds.

Terpene Storage

The containers used for Cali Terpenes are ideal for perfect terpene preservation, equipped with a safety stopper, leakproof disk, and screw-on lid.

1. Each time you finish using the product, replace all these components to prevent potential evaporation or contamination.
2. Terpenes are volatile compounds, hence we always recommend storing them in a cold environment, like a refrigerator (around 7ºC), to avoid potential evaporation when you're working with them.
3. The working temperature with terpenes should not exceed 60ºC in order to prevent the evaporation of the more volatile terpenes.
4. Always keep terpenes in their original containers because the material used (dark glass that prevents UV penetration) is perfect for preserving thermo or photosensitive products. You'll avoid potential color changes, losses, or cross-contamination (terpenes can act as solvents and corrode some materials like certain plastics).
