I believe in science, but what should I think when they report in that CBN is white-off solid?Went through this in great detail in the previous post I mentioned (between yourself, me, and Jump). I found several independent sources which describe purified (by chromatography) as a deep red oil--this is further backed up by the wavelengths of greatest absorption which are found in THC which are firmly in the green section of the color wheel (corresponding to a "reflected" color of red).
..
It would be logical to expect that in the process of degradation, when the content CBN increases, the extract will become harder and whiter?
Would someone be willing to do an actual detailed smoke report on cannabis acetate? I think that would be amazing, and very informative for everyone here!
And yes jump, that is why I said they'd be a bigger issue in alcohol extractions (the anthocyanins)--although I think you'll find that some anthocyanins will solvate in non-polar solvents (albeit sparingly).

As for the layering effect--I think you'll find this is a common optical property of colored liquid compounds (rather than solutions). It's all about absorbance. Do some reading on Beer's law.
Rare, but observed the appearance of the blue component in color of amber, when the usual red-yellow gamma is shifted toward purple.blue light.
Butane will also absorb up to about 32ml/liter water.
Thanks for the Beer's tip! It most certainly covers the color change with density, but how about colors? Here is a picture of a butane extraction from fan leaf that I couldn't see through, but which the camera saw as reflecting blue light.
My camera takes multiple shots, just by holding down the shutter and I take all my pictures in at least sequences of three. The camera automatically gives me a light, medium, and dark shot.
I usually take two or more sequences of important shots, and all of the sequences showed blue, without repeating that before or since.
You will notice the corona around the blue is light amber. If you blow the photo up until it pixilates, you can see that it hasn't been altered.
Thanks for the color links! Looks like lots of good info! It reminds me of something that caught my attention studying when vision evolved in the Cambrian explosion, followed by protective coloration.
One protective coloration strategy was grooves on the outside shell, that acted as a diffraction grating, giving color to a otherwise transparent outer cover.
i noticed wayyyyyy smoother than any other dabs...and does creep a bit...many said got them too high or disoriented..wayyyyy heady of course
