They have some higher end containers, but they can be pretty expensive.

Do it all the time, never had a problem. It is hard to find some replacement parts though, when things inevitably do break down.

After working with several different CBD isolates, I can say that yes they can be different. Depending on where you are getting it from, how it was refined, what solvents were used in the extraction process, and other factors, can make the isolates easier or more difficult to work with. Like @Perry said, their is no standard. You’ll definitely want to look at C of A’s to find the most pure isolate you can. There is no such thing as a broad spectrum isolate, an isolate by definition should have minimal to zero other cannabinoids in it.

Their is no difference between the cannabinoids coming from hemp or from “weed”, its all cannabis. The difference comes in the cannabinoid content, hemp is grown with very minimal THC and higher CBD, its legal hemp if the THC is below .3%. The new farm bill will make it easier to grow and transport hemp, but it also gives jurisdiction of CBD products to the FDA as opposed to the DEA. I’m pretty sure the FDA is not going to care where your CBD comes from.

You can try cream of tartar to get it to harden, not sure of the percent you need but I remember that it is not a lot.

If you whip it with a stick blender as its cooling it should have a nice soft texture after it cools completely.

Glad I asked then, my alcohol is at 23%, thank you @Perry.

I make some similar products, and haven’t been putting any preservatives in it, with no problems. Maybe that’s wrong, but my products should not have any contact with water.
