When extracting thc into oil or butter use a crock pot/slow cooker. 3 hours or more. I made brownies tuesday night that are insane. I ate 2, 5 hours ago and I've been pie eyed ever since. Theres a little over 1g in each brownie. So happy

Make sure the temp doesn't go over 29 degrees if you want to keep that bud at ultimate potency, as the thc begins to release at that temp

29? THC starts vaping at 220 F--

I think that one temp is 29 Centigrade and the othr 220 Farenheit. I think that useable THC vapors start at more like 360F.

--that sounds about rite. I'm certainly no expert, just sharing what works!! I've wasted a ton of herb in the past, and ended up eating brownies that taste like shit and just get u a little high. I've made batches using the crock pot and the results were perfect each time. they knocked down some seasoned pros at a party on Sat. lol. Surface area and slow cooking seem to be the 2 key elements in cooking. Just my 2 cents tho! Love to read of others experience with cooking!

How about some more details about how to do this? And what do you mean by surface area?

Tx!

Hi,

By surface area I mean grind it up and then grind it some more. You want to get as much bud as you can into as little space as possible, so I grind it into a powder and then add it to the amount required for 1 batch of brownies. Then stir and wait. The crockpot I have is real small and doesn't have a high/low setting, so it's just on. I stir it occasionally during the 4-5 hour cooking. I've done it for less time, like 2 hours, then taken the used herb and cooked it again and still extracted more thc. But after 4-5 hours it seems like all the thc is extracted and the oil is DANK. I think everything related to MJ comes down to a lesson in patience. lol. Strain the oil a couple times to remove the cooked mj and then just add that oil to the mix and bake as directed! Hope that helped! PLease let us know when you try it!!

Oh, I'll let you know, for sure! Right now I'm torn between what you are talking about and trying an alcohol tincture . . . spiked with vanilla pods.

So many choices, so little time and weed . . . .

Love what you wrote about patience. I believe you are right. That is one reason I bought a sewing machine years ago: to deal with my object frustration and to work on my patience levels. Now? I'm just on to new things.

Oh-gotta ask. The crock pot you are using. You said it's very small. Are you perhaps talking about the potpourri crock pots? They look like miniature crock pots, but are mean to be used for potpourri? My crock pot is a big one. You know, the whole family thing . . . stick a whole rack of ribs in it, that kind of thing. Maybe I'll look on ebay for a small one.

Thanks for the info!

Hey Leilani Garden, Have you eaten it before?

I'm constantly trying to increase my tolerance for frustration. I had the patience of Job when I wasn't in pain 24-7, lol, it's true though. GD sciatica nerve. Anyway, from seed to consumption there is nothing fast about herb x-cept how quick the bud dissapears. Seems that way with everything in life worth obtaining..

I don't know first hand about alcohol extraction, havnt' tried it yet as I've been too busy trying to perfect the cooking thing.....and I think it's paid off. Like I said I can finally make edibles that taste good and get you zoinked. And I mean, off the wall zoinked.

Here's a pic of the little dipper cp. And another of the huge cp that works so much better for pot roast! Keep me updated!

That small one is for pot-pourri burning. Is that the one you used for your butter?

Your large crockpot is the size of my little single serving crock pot LOL

Have any of you guys tried putting some trim into a jar of olive oil and letting it sit to infuse it? People do that all the time, put sage, or thyme, or other stuff in olive oil and it makes it taste like that.

Imagine some canni-oil stir fry or something
