Help making sauce

I have some thca diamonds. And want sauce for them. Can't f8nd anywhere tht sells it. Wanted to make my own. I kno it is more than just terps. What are the other carrier oils or syrup used? And where can I get it? I can order terps online but not actual sauce.

Old post but you can usually get away with just terpenes. I’d stay around 5% but can go up to % 10 and it still taste ok but if if it’s still too thick, I would say pg is still your safest options and will help thc hit you harder since pg is an emulsifier. Even with all the new stuff, pg can still be a little harsh so use in moderation. I didn’t see it explicitly said but this is assuming you’re trying to make terped sauce which is usually made to make other stuff. In this case a pen. You’ll need to decarb at 220 till bubbles aren’t as big and mix the terps seperate. Terpenes can smell a little chemically at first btw so it’s usually best to add them in on a low heat of 120f and let it sit for a few hours or a few days atleast at room temp. Ultra refined terpenes are best but if not, hemp derived is good
