Lesson 1.5.5

RSO (Rick Simpson Oil): Full Spectrum Ethanol Extract

Estimated time: 60 minutes

Learning Objectives

  • Understand RSO as a full-spectrum ethanol extract and why the broad polarity pull is intentional (not a flaw)
  • Execute the RSO process: 190-proof ethanol soak at 1-gallon-per-ounce ratio, filtration, low-temperature evaporation at 140-160F
  • Know typical yields (3-5g per ounce at 20% THC input) and final potency ranges (50-80% total cannabinoids)
  • Understand why RSO retains chlorophyll, waxes, and full terpene/flavonoid profiles and how that drives its use case
  • Know safe evaporation practices: never use open flame, always ventilate, electric heating only
  • Dose calculation for oral/sublingual use
