Default Temp THC burns, decarbs, and bonds?
I used to have these memorized but I'm starting a new cooking project today, and can't remember the exact temperatures at which THC:
1) is vaporized
2) bonds to fat molecules
3) decarboxylates
If any one could remind me, I'd really appreciate it.

The mixed lingo between potheads and chemists and pothead-chemists make researching this WAY harder than it really ought to be. Funny, I remember it being pretty easy...
So far, I've got
1) 355-392F
2) ?
3) 222F-(?)
Please help fill in the blanks; I'll have all the ingredients by tonight and I'd like to be prepared by this evening, so I can sell samples at a party tomorrow.

Thanks for nothing jah. Just playin, but I got all the info I needed. I felt a bit stupid for forgetting it, but people are usually impressed when I retain any information whatsoever. For aspiring THC chefs, here are the stats, all in Farenheit:
222/+: Decarboxylation (Carboxyl groups removed, making weed more potent. I recommend 225 for up to half an hour in an oven, to avoid burning.)
325-355: THC bonds to fat molecules
355-392: THC "boils" (vaporizes; avoid this temperature)

Hahaha! Believe it or not, I've been told that, yes, decarboxylation does improve the high when smoked. The science behind that is shaky at best, but there is a large enough number of cooks who will make this claim that I don't feel comfortable to simply dismiss it with my offhand.
