@Rsawr can you get some insulation in the exterior wall. Might have a draft too.
It does have a little draft. I sealed one side up pretty good but the cold water side was a bit cooler. I did some poor man's insulating. I need to have someone out in spring to fix a different wall that I noticed gets pretty chilly on my second floor. I don't like having workers out in the winter cuz they always stomp mud around and leave doors open and make it cold, lol

Recap of making coconut oil yesterday

Decarb 15g Cinderella Purple flower in Magical Butter decarb box. 30 minutes at 250° Start timer when temp in box reaches 240°

Melt down 150g coconut oil in pint jar and add 3/4 tbsp sunflower lecithin, stir it in

Add decarbed and crumbled flower to coconut oil

Put lid on and place in slow cooker full of water

Cook for 4 hours (I started on low and turned up to high to bump temp up. I was between 160 and 200°F the whole time)

At 12:40, I took .5mL to test it out
1:40 I felt very relaxed and just chill so I took another .5mL. By 3:00 I could feel it coming on pretty strong. I fixed tacos and my have eaten 10 of them. They were street taco size. I then followed the tacos up with about 20 knockoff golden oreos and milk. I'm not saying there were munchies involved, but the evidence is definitely suggesting otherwise. I was still feeling the effects around 9pm or so. I'd say that it is a successful batch of coconut oil. I will be making brownies today. The box says 20 servings. The smart person would use 20mL of the infused oil for the batch. I think I'm going to bump it to 30mL and then cut the brownies in half. That way I can share some with friends with a higher tolerance. I plan on freezing the rest in Individual servings. Here's hoping that the dosage of the oil straight, matches the dosage in the brownies.

No extreme weather around here, only ended up with .6 inch of rain yesterday. A couple wind gusts were over 20 so not that bad.
We're out of eggs so it's pancakes this morning before football. Spouses team is playing this afternoon so I don't think a nap is in my future.
Mornin.
