Maximum Potency - Minimum Oil

Hi all, first post here....

I have started playing around with making oil, and I wanted to get some opinions / feedback, in case someone tried what I'm wondering about, and could save me some experimentation.

My goal is to have a very concentrated coconut oil, so I will need to use very little of it per each "serving".

Most placed recommend about 1/2 oz per 1 cup of oil.

The questions I have are:
1) What's the maximum herb that can be absorbed in 1 cup of oil?
2) Will using double the herb with the same amount of oil will make it twice as strong or need half the amount of oil?
3) Would there be a difference between using 1 oz of herb for 1 cup of oil, or using 1/2 an oz per cup of oil, but doing a second cycle (meaning start again with the already processed oil and add a second 1/2 an oz).
4) If I do a double cycle, would there be any THC loss from the first run, as it will be heated again.

read that...

doubling the herb/hash content can double effect as long as its all in solution. if it becomes saturated adding more cannabinoids will increase, potency but it won't be absorbed as efficiently into your bloodstream

3.) say what?

Yea heat is bad..

you should really try and add hash, not use the oil to extract, it will never be quality imo

and don't forget to decarb, you didn't mention it

Thanks for the reply.

I read that thread, and if I understood correctly, it seems to suggest that you could use 1.5 oz of herb to 3oz of oil?

I have been decarbing with my oil at 220 deg for about 90 min.

Let me try to clarify my 3rd question.

I am trying to find out (without wasting herb) which oil would be more potent.

1) 1 cup of oil + 1oz of herb processed for 90 min.

2) 1 cup of oil + 1/2 of herb processed for 90 min, then, same oil processed again with another 1/2 ox for another 90 min.

My concern is that in the second processing, the oil will start losing THC as it will be exposed to the heat for longer than it should.
