// Definition
The process of collecting separate terpene-rich fractions during rosin pressing at different temperature ranges, each containing different terpene profiles and varying amounts of THC.
// From the Episode
Caitlyn described collecting four distinct terpene fractions during her solventless diamond process. Each fraction tastes and smells different because different terpenes melt at different temperatures. The fourth (highest temperature) fraction is stickier, contains more THC, and feels more potent. When combined, these fractions create a 'diamonds and sauce' product at approximately 70% THC with 8-9% terpenes.
