I make a lot of tinctures and it’s always a few days of experimentation to guess the potency. Is there an inexpensive tester that can accurately test the THC content of an ethanol solution?

Not inexpensive that I’ve found yet. For quality test. But you get your money’s worth for sure, like you can test 100 times a day i think.

The GemmaCert device tests dry flower buds, ground material, and crude extract/concentrates.

yeah, I would expect that liquid cromotography is better for tincture and probably cheaper, but I can’t find anything for less than 250 (t check) and I’ve heard even that one is not super accurate.

I don’t know anyone that’s run it. So all i know is the marketing

Here is one I saw on Highigan YouTube Channel, but it’s not cheap in my opinion. The one you need is about $399.99.

Heya @Greenbert , luckily had access to a sage tester and the gemma cert. The tests came out very different for the cannabinoid profiles. I am a little skeptical as to the accuracy of these midrange machines, and would rather leave it to private laboratories to test with more accuracy. Let me see if I can find the test results.

It’s fine, usually I get the right concentration through 2 or 3 trial and error “tastings” but it can take a while and I can really only run one test per day.
