The San Buzi Standard™

Full-panel testing. Complete transparency.
A higher standard for a good buzz.

The San Buzi Standard™ is our approach to lab testing, lot traceability, and public COA access — so you know exactly what’s in the can before you crack it open.

Our Testing Process

Every batch goes through the same full-panel process before it’s cleared for sale — documented, published, and organized by lot.

  1. 1

    Sample Selection

    A representative sample from the applicable production lot is submitted for independent lab testing.

  2. 2

    Potency Testing

    HPLC-UV measures the exact THC and CBG content per can, reported as a percentage of label claim.

  3. 3

    Contaminant Screen

    Pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, and residual solvents are screened for and must come back clean.

  4. 4

    Additional Analysis

    Additional analytical measurements may be performed depending on the batch and testing program.

  5. 5

    Lot-Specific COA

    Results are organized by lot and published through the San Buzi COA database.

Understanding Lab Testing

Different Tests. Different Answers. A Clearer Picture.

No single test tells you everything about a can. Here’s what each part of our testing actually checks.

Potency Testing

Retention TimeDetector Response

HPLC-UV measures how much THC and CBG is actually in the can, compared against the labeled 10mg THC / 5mg CBG.

Contaminant Screen

Screens for pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, and residual solvents. The specific method used is always listed on the applicable lab report.

Additional Analytical Data

Depending on the testing program, additional measurements may provide information beyond potency or contaminants. Always review the lot-specific report to see exactly what was tested.

Potency ≠ Clean

Potency and contaminant screening are related but distinct tests. A potency result tells you how much THC/CBG is in the can. A contaminant screen tells you whether it’s free of pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, and residual solvents. Neither should be assumed from the other.

Always review the applicable lab report to understand:

  • • what was tested
  • • which method was used
  • • what result was reported
  • • which lot was analyzed

Every Result Should Be Traceable

Testing Should Follow the Lot.

San Buzi organizes testing documentation around individual lots so you can review the exact results tied to the can in your hand.

More Questions

Potency describes how much THC and CBG a lab measured in a can, reported as a percentage of what the label claims. A result of 100% means the can contains exactly the labeled 10mg THC / 5mg CBG; results a bit above or below 100% are normal batch-to-batch variation.

No. Potency testing measures how much THC/CBG is present. A contaminant screen is a separate test checking for pesticides, heavy metals, microbials, and residual solvents. A can can pass one and not the other, so both are reported separately on the COA.

High-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV) is the standard analytical method used to measure cannabinoid concentration in a beverage sample.

A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is a laboratory document reporting the test results for a specific lot, including which methods were used and the results obtained. San Buzi publishes every available COA by lot in its COA database.

Every batch is brewed and tested separately. A result from one lot doesn't apply to another, so we organize testing documentation by lot -- the lot number on your can is what you look up.

Visit the San Buzi COA database and search by flavor or lot number printed on your can.
