FAQs

Extract vs ground seed—why choose aCao Dou Kouextract for multi-format builds?

Extract powder concentrates recognizable seed constituents (alpinetin, cardamonin and aromatic monoterpenes) into compact milligram servings with far less grit than ground seed, which often needs multi-gram scoops and heavier masking. That keeps mouthfeel clean and labels concise across capsules, sticks and gummies.– in gummies), pre-wet, add after liquid, whisk 20–30 s and allow a brief settle. Hold grams, pH and whisk/settle constant for two weeks so your benchtop SOP repeats predictably at scale.Claim strength:High

What flavour partners keep the aromatic note pleasant without heavy sweeteners?

Lemon peel, ginger, fennel and a light vanilla round complement the seed’s aromatic profile well. If a cup reads assertive, trim inclusion before modifying partners.
