What is the difference between Caupuri shredded and Caupuri paste?

Caupuri shredded consists of shredded stems of the raw vine, while the paste is a concentrated water extract with a 30:1 ratio. The shredded form retains the complete plant material in its natural state, whereas the paste is an extracted and concentrated form. The choice depends on your specific research application and preferred processing method.

How can you recognise the Caupuri variety by stem appearance?

The Caupuri variety is immediately recognisable by the strikingly large nodes in its stem. When broken, it fragments into smaller pieces rather than long fibres as with other caapi varieties. Caupuri grows near the equator in tropical Brazil. Learn more about ethnobotanical plants and their characteristics.
