Pretty much the reason I stated -- most of it is the same stuff, and most people on here who've tried it don't like it. Search kava on alibaba and you can see lots of companies selling it. Here's one: http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/kavakava-30-50-70-kavalactones-kava_1796719712.html

Hey, @Gourmet Hawaiian Kava , have you considered selling a version of your micronized with the 120 µm particles removed. You could call it "Ultra-Micronized." I'm one of those people who has stomach problems with micro, so I stick to medium grind, but I would try some "Ultra-Micro"

I don't know if I trust some random company from China with kava extracts. I want to make sure it's not tudei, what type of root it is, the chemotypes, etc. I would much rather buy it from someone like Chris or Judd, who I know are good, trustworthy people who back up what they sell.

Didn't I read somewhere that they are selling ground cement? (instead of two day, it's perma gut).
Like your avatars. You have a magnetic personality.

Thanks for sharing that! I've always wondered the difference between the grinds.
Hey. I've just had a look at this link and it is exactly the same powder and colour as the stuff I got from ebay - not good...I dumped it yesterday....The guy had 1.5k and wanted me to buy the lot, thankfully I didn't. It wasn't good.
I don't see why not. Let me try and I will let you know what I come up with.
Aloha.

A sub-cellular level grind, perhaps? Nano-grind?
Though Nanonized doesn't sound right.

Don't be in a hurry to go no where.
In regards to the moi extract. But seriously I would love some of that stuff. Not only does it look like butter but I bet it makes you feel like it.
I just measured my instant and it is 100< µm I did some calculations with the equipment I use to micronize the kava, I use round balls believe it or not, in a special machine, the diameter of the metal or ceramic balls will have an effect on the particle size but I am sure I can get it to 75 µm with my current set up.
Aloha.

This is just some conjecture on my part, but I feel like reducing the particle size might make it easier to get down but won't really change the effect on the stomach. It's still insoluble fiber and whatever else in there causing discomfort?
Spreading kava extract on toast would be so ballin'...better than caviar.

If you could make micronized with a smaller particle size than instant that would be...amazing.I just measured my instant and it is 100< µm I did some calculations with the equipment I use to micronize the kava, I use round balls believe it or not, in a special machine, the diameter of the metal or ceramic balls will have an effect on the particle size but I am sure I can get it to 75 µm with my current set up.

If the "ultra-micro" were less expensive than instant, that would be...really amazing.

Ok, ok, enough "beer talk", bring it on!

No, what you do is put the root in a gallon ziploc bag with some water and roll on it. It has the same effect as kneading it of pressing the oils into the water. Then pour it out into a strainer and give it one squeeze.
For me, this is a lot easier to do with the amounts that I typically use.
