So on the recently posted Final Report - Scientific and Legal Assessment on Kava by @verticity there was an interesting statement on page 57:
"The sample of Mo’i with an FKB:K-ratio was not a root powder, but an instant kava powder ready for drinking. Due to the processing, some shifts in the kavalactone composition must be expected and can be observed. Instant powder preparation leads to losses in kavalactones by roughly 50%, whereas FKB remained unchanged."
For those of you who make, sell, and test instants is this statement true? I have really been unimpressed by instants so far, and maybe this is the reason.
