FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates generally to powdered cannabis products, products containing powdered cannabis, and processes of making same.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Cannabis can be consumed by humans in a number of ways. Some people prefer to consume edible cannabis products, such as drinks containing cannabis oil. Cannabis oil, however, is not naturally soluble in water, and attempts have been made at producing powered cannabis oil products that can be used in a drink.
In certain jurisdictions, the amount of cannabinoids in edible cannabis products is regulated. In Canada for example, products meant for ingestion have a limit of 10 mg of the cannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC") per dose. Producing powdered cannabis products with a consistent distribution of THC and/or one or more other cannabinoids that meet local regulations has proved challenging.

[0008] FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an embodiment of the process for producing a powdered cannabis oil product; and
[0009] FIG. 2 is a is a flowchart of another embodiment of the process for producing a powdered cannabis isolate or distillate product.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0010] In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a process of producing an edible powder containing cannabis. A desired quantity of a cannabis oil extract is measured 10 and a solvent selected 20 and the cannabis oil is mixed with a solvent to form an emulsion 30. In one embodiment, the solvent is ethanol. In certain other embodiments, the solvent is selected from the group consisting of ethanol, isopropanol, chloroform, methane, hexane, cyclohexane, acetone, pentane and combinations thereof. Local food contact regulations and/or fire codes may govern which solvent(s) are permitted. In one embodiment, the cannabis oil and the solvent is heated while forming the emulsion. Heating promotes fluidization of the mixture. In one embodiment, the emulsion is made in a beaker and stirred while being heated to a temperature of about 79 C for approximately 25-30 minutes. Mixing times may vary but in one embodiment, the emulsion is mixed until there is no significant phase separation in the emulsion. Forming an emulsion promotes the even distribution of cannabinoids throughout the emulsion. Heating of the emulsion also promotes decarboxylation provided that the emulsion is heated to suitable temperatures because the two main catalysts for decarboxylation are heat and time. In one embodiment, heating of the emulsion to a temperature in the range of about 240 F to 243 F promotes decarboxylation. Temperatures above about 243 F denature the cannabinoid(s) in cannabis oil. In another embodiment, where decarboxylation is not required because the cannabis oil has previously been decarboxylated, the emulsion is heated to about 80 C. In another embodiment, the emulsion is subjected to sonication to further break down cannabis oil droplets in the emulsion into nanoparticles and/or microparticles.
Reducing the size of the cannabis oil droplets increases the bioavailability of the cannabinoids in the cannabis oil. Smaller cannabis oil droplets also improve the resulting powdered product by promoting more uniform distribution of the cannabinoids in the resulting powder. In one embodiment, sonication of the emulsion can be carried out with a cavitational homogenizer.

Smaller cannabis oil droplets also improve the resulting powdered product by promoting more uniform distribution of the cannabinoids in the resulting powder. In one embodiment, sonication of the emulsion can be carried out with a cavitational homogenizer.
[0011] A starch powder is selected 40 and a desired quantify of the starch powder is measured and the cannabis oil emulsion is mixed with the starch powder 50.
In one embodiment, the starch is a maltodextrin powder. In another embodiment, the starch is a mixture of a maltodextrin powder and a tapioca powder. In one embodiment, the starch powder is a mixture of a maltodextrin powder and a tapioca powder in a ratio of about 3:1. In one embodiment, the emulsion and the starch powder are mixed to form a paste. In one embodiment, the proportion of cannabis oil to starch powder is 10 mg cannabis oil to 1 g starch powder. In other embodiments, the proportion of cannabis oil to starch powder ranges from 20 to 100 mg of cannabis oil to 1 g of starch powder. In other embodiments, the ratio of cannabis oil to starch powder ranges from 1:100 to 1:10.
In one embodiment, the starch is a maltodextrin powder. In another embodiment, the starch is a mixture of a maltodextrin powder and a tapioca powder. In one embodiment, the starch powder is a mixture of a maltodextrin powder and a tapioca powder in a ratio of about 3:1. In one embodiment, the emulsion and the starch powder are mixed to form a paste. In one embodiment, the proportion of cannabis oil to starch powder is 10 mg cannabis oil to 1 g starch powder. In other embodiments, the proportion of cannabis oil to starch powder ranges from 20 to 100 mg of cannabis oil to 1 g of starch powder. In other embodiments, the ratio of cannabis oil to starch powder ranges from 1:100 to 1:10.
[0012] In a next step, the solvent or substantially all of the solvent is removed from the mixture 60. In one embodiment, where a paste has been formed from the mixture, the paste is flattened on a pan and placed in a vacuum purge oven. In one embodiment, the oven temperature used is about 230 C. In another embodiment, the oven temperature is about 120 C when a vacuum purge is not used. Care should be taken not to heat the paste to a temperature where a substantial amount of the cannabinoids in the paste are "boiled off". In one embodiment, the paste is purged for about 24 hours. In another embodiment, the paste is purged until substantially all of the solvent has been removed from the paste. In another embodiment, after purging, the paste is re-blended, flattened again and placed again in the vacuum purge oven for a second purge session. In one embodiment, the second purge session is about 12 hours in duration.
[0013] In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a process of producing an edible powder containing cannabis. A desired quantity of a cannabis isolate or distillate is measured 70, a solvent is selected 80, and the cannabis isolate or distillate and the solvent are mixed and emulsified 90. In certain embodiments, the cannabinoid isolate may be selected from the group consisting of:
[0014] BGA (Cannabigerolic acid)
[0015] THCA (A9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid)
[0016] CBDA (Cannabidiolic acid)

[0024] CBD (Cannabidiol)
[0025] CBC (Cannabichromene)
[0026] CBGV (Cannabigerivarin)
[0027] THCV (Tetrahydrocannabivarin)
[0028] CBDV (Cannabidivarin)
[0029] CBCV (Cannabichromevarin)
[0030] and combinations thereof.
[0031] In one embodiment, the solvent is ethanol. In certain other embodiments, the solvent is selected from the group consisting of ethanol, chloroform, methane, hexane, cyclohexane, acetone, pentane and combinations thereof. Heating promotes fluidization of the mixture. In one embodiment, the mixture is made in a beaker and stirred while heated to a temperature of about 79 C for approximately 25-30 minutes.
Mixing times may vary but preferably, mixing should continue until there is no significant phase separation in the mixture. The emulsion also promotes the even distribution of the isolate throughout the emulsion. Heating of the emulsion also promotes decarboxylation provided that the emulsion is heated to suitable temperatures because the two main catalysts for decarboxylation are heat and time. In one embodiment, heating the emulsion to a temperature of in the range of about 240 F to 243 F
promotes decarboxylation. Temperatures above about 243 F denature the isolate.

Reducing the size of the isolate droplets increases the bioavailability of the cannabinoids in the isolate. Smaller isolate droplets also improves the resulting powdered product by promoting more uniform distribution of the cannabinoids in the resulting powder.

In another embodiment, the starch is a mixture of a maltodextrin powder and a tapioca powder. In one embodiment, the starch powder is a mixture of a maltodextrin powder and a tapioca powder in a ratio of about 3:1.

[0034] In a next step, the solvent is removed from the mixture 120. In one embodiment, the paste is flattened on a pan and placed in a vacuum purge oven.
In one embodiment, the oven temperature is about 230 C. In another embodiment, the oven temperature is about 120 C when a vacuum purge is not used. The paste should not be heated too much such that cannabinoids in the paste are "boiled off. In one embodiment, the paste is purged for about 24 hours. In another embodiment, the paste is purged until substantially all of the solvent has been removed from the paste. In another embodiment, after purging, the paste is re-blended, flattened again and placed again in the vacuum purge oven for a second purge session.
