Default stem tea
So i'm not listening to ne1 nemore about stem tea, some say it works and a lot say it doesn't...

i jus tried it a few days ago and it didn't realy do very much for me. i grinded up 21.3 grams of stems and boiled them for about half an hour. then i poured it into 2 cups and gave my friend one.

tastes terrible. but did feel a slight high. and my legs felt a little twitchy as if you jus took 4 dramamine....

but im gonna try it again with the same stems but boil it longer and make it into 1 cup....

tell me wut u think...

i made some with shake and trimmings. tasted amazing, like a pumpkin spice late from starbucks. i ended up drinking about 6 cups to myself because of how good it tasted forgetting i was drinking pot.



i couldn't wake up the next morning.

you just boiled them in water?? if so, that was your first mistake... thc needs some fat to bind to in cooking, so all you were doing is getting the horrible taste with little to no effects.....

Gogrow is exactly right.
You need some kind of fat emulsifier,ie milk.
Lecithin granules are the best and you should never "boil" it,only bring it to the boil and then quickly reduce the heat and simmer it slowly for about 15 minutes

I found this on a thread in Cooking With Cannabis ... I bet it would work the same with stems.

Quote:
After searching all over the internet and learning almost nothing about making a good, potent marijuana tea, I decided to just go ahead and try it myself (while abroad in Amsterdam, of course). IT WORKS. What I ended up with was a delicious tea that got me absolutely wasted for several hours (I'll admit I overdid it a bit....). Here's what I did, and the dosages I recommend:

1) Crush up 1 gram of nice kind-bud as fine as you can get it and put it in a teabag (you can unstaple any teabag, replace with ganja, and re-staple or paperclip). You can omit the teabag if you have something to strain your tea through when it is done like a gold coffee filter or cheesecloth.

2) Put 1 cup of water in a medium saucepan or tea kettle and heat over high until boiling.

3) Reduce to a low boil and add your ganja teabag (or loose ganja) with **1/2 teaspoon of butter** (you will not get any effect without this ingredient. NO MARGARINE.). Stir until dissolved.

4) Cover and let simmer for 1 hour.

5) Stir in one cup of whole milk, along with cinnamon, sugar and allspice to taste. You can also add an herbal teabag like African redbush or licorice, if desired). Bring back to boil and simmer for 15 minutes.

6)Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract and bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 30 seconds and transfer to large mug (through filter if not using teabag). Sprinkle with nutmeg.

I drank the whole thing immediately. It was delicious and two hours later I was basically tripping. I'd probably recommend 1/2 as a starting point. If you measure out the recipe as I've directed, you can make 4 small sups and get slightly buzzed, 2 medium cups and get pretty stoned or 1 big cup and get totally blitzed into uselessness.

Have fun!

How much stems do you have? Maybe you could try grinding them in a coffee grinder... I've never tried it, it might be a bad idea. lol but I can't think of any other way to break the stems down really well.

butter does taste wierd... i'd go with some milk or heavy cream... that sucks that you downed all of the tea with no effects... i know how bad it can taste... i've done it with just milk; add a little bit of cinnamon and alot of sugar or honey, and its really not that bad...
