Features

• Large Capacity

  The Ardent FX boasts a much larger cavity for your materials from the older Ardent NOVA. The FX can decarboxylate up to 4 ounces in a single session, but also works for small doses. We made some coconut oil for our gummies which only used a gram of herb.

  The large capacity makes the Ardent FX ideal for the commercial edible chef or the novice who just wants to make some butter for cookies from time to time.

• Easy to Use

  The Ardent FX is easy to use with set and forget controls. The Ardent FX utilizes proprietary settings to take care of your infusion or decarb with the press of a few buttons. From there it will let you know when you are ready to roll.

  With 4 settings and one main power button, you will be a pro using the Ardent FX from your first time onward.

• Decarboxylation

  The Ardent FX provides precision Decarboxylation. This process is  needed to release the cannabinoid (THC,CBG,CBD)  potential of your cannabis flower.  The Ardent FX has two proprietary settings which let  you prepare your herbs for specialty applications. 

  A1 – this setting lets you decarb for your CBG and THC 

  A2 – this setting lets you decarb for optimizing your CBD 

  At the end of the A1 or A2 decarboxylation cycles the FX’s power button will flash red letting you know the cool down process has started. This takes about 2 hours. 

• Do I need to decarboxylate ?

  To optimize the most of your material the decarb cycle is essential. Without it your end product  will only contain 25% of the active cannabinoids. While when using a vaporizer or smoking , your herb will be heated to a temperature so hot it will decarboxylate immediately. However when preparing your cannabis for edibles you must decarb for a longer time at a lower temperature to convert the THCA strain into THC. This is the reason if you eat raw buds nothing will happen. Decarboxylation will begin at 225 °F after about 30 minutes and the ardent Nova will fully decarboxylate in around 2 hours.

• Infuse

  Once your decarb is complete you can take your oil or butter and place them in with your decarbed product for infusion. Ardent recommends one once of fats (oils, creams, butters) to one gram of flower or concentrates. You can adjust accordingly if you are looking to go “To the Moon” with your edibles or tinctures.

  The infusion process will begin with the Ardent FX heating up to 176°F with the proprietary settings ending the infusion between 2-3 hours depending on how full your unit is.

  Once the infusion process is complete you have your canna butter or oil and are ready to use it in whatever you see fit.

• Bake

  The Adent FX goes a step further with the baking function. This option is great to have for someone who isn’t super handy in the kitchen or may not even have access to the kitchen.

  This further makes the Ardent FX a useful portable stove for camping trips or using for some infused ramen in your dorm room.

  The Ardent FX baking setting will hit 300 °F and will automatically power down once you are doing making anything in the device.

• Cleaning the Ardent FX

  Another added benefit of the Ardent FX is how easy it is to clean the device. The Stainless Steel chamber can be washed out with dish soap or thrown in the dishwasher. Cleaning is about as easy as making your edibles.

• Dimensions

  The FX is lightweight at only 2 lbs.  it is not a wieldy device you will need to use alot of muscle into taking down , cleaning or putting away. The materials used make the Ardent FX lightweight but sturdy while at  9.1 inches in height the FX has the capacity to make some serious infusions ergonomic and hassle free.

• Warranty

  The Ardent FX comes with a one year manufacturer warranty from Ardent. You will need to register your device upon receipt.
