I was gonna make some edibles.. But then I got high.. Its the middle two. The top one is dry decarb the bottom is fresh decarb with a S for “sleepy” is how I noted that, I think.. Stoner shit. Like Chong saying stoner add too much weed by mistake going uh.. I think it has enough weed.. maybe should add more.. Like forgetting you already did lol. I did that but with lecithin.

1.6 tbsp per half cup but was like is that a .6 tbsp? So I added probably more than needed lecithin but I learned you can add more and should to see how it works for you. Lecithin is what gets me high period 20% by volume oil. I made a cup of butter as fresh decarb the tricky thing is knowing how much to add.

A way around that is weigh it and do like minus 75% of wet weight but thats not that accurate either but its somethin. Makin chocolates today I cant wait to test it for some reason I wasnt in that mind set yesterday. I tried the oil but like I said it dont do much for some reason, if I overdose I eat myself sober like with smoking but worse.

The key for me is just the right diluted dose in chocolate. A small amount like a tbsp of chocolate but in bark form. Hits me right!

And back up with energy wow its not really the way I decarb but the strain. Like head or body buzz couchlock or on your feet this ones real hybridized. Can be good for both instead of just jump in bed watchin whatever entertainment unstead of up and doing shit.

Well Id say from my tests the fresh decarb is stronger so Im doing that exclusively now on. But now seeing strains can hit different. Fresh decarb is also very convenient just use and toss right away no need to dry or store etc.

Keep up the good work
I have several threads spread over a few sites where I am the only one to reply
Your experiences are valuable info for people

Use infused simple syrup instead of oil for the lighter more energetic effects
Oil knocks me out after conversion to 11 hydroxy thc in the liver
12 hours of heavy trippy high depending on my process and length of time making the emulsion
The syrup seems to metabolize different
Badkat has a thread on most sites and her take on liposomal encapsulation seems to be right on the money

The nano tech is coming
First price drop on REAL equipment is happening and the start up is around $7200 US and another $3000-$5000 for support and cleaning equipment
This is for a small commercial set up
Think they were north of $25000 not too long ago
We may be able to scale it down and do 80%-90% of the their droplet size
Cheaper sonicators for kitchen operations can be had for $1000-$2000



Just starting my journey into this method of emulsion
If I pull it off, ANYONE can!

Zonked. I almost quit using by accident just trying to cut back enough to stay using my own. In the light of mold and bugs losing a whole run. This makes edibles about as strong as dabbing. I never done my edibles with a low tolerance but it really really brings it out.

I feel like this..

People tried telling me if youre like me to try it on low T as they think people they know that complain also smoke too much. That mixed with the lecithin trick to double the potency wow. Just mix 20% of your cannabutter preferrably coconut, with lecithin any kind.

No need for fancy gizmos though nanotech got me good before Id try that again on a low T. Liquor like in sense I was buzzin then went straight to bed.

Thanks for this thread @medicated.

My most used method is a little different from what most are doing. Not better, just different.

Terpenes and cannabinoids actually have boiling points. Some high, some low.
To keep everything intact I use the Sous Vide method. It's cooking in hot water at a constant and consistent temperature.

Some one mentioned differences in oven temps. My oven can be off 25 degrees. Plus, once you open the door, the temp in an oven can drop by 50 degrees or more. With Sous Vide, there is no temp fluctuation.

You don't need an expensive Sous vide 'machine', you can use a stock pot and thermometer.

Keeping the temps lower give a full spectrum end product with all the plant goodness.

CBD and THC are synergistic. Just a fancy way of saying they work better together. As mentioned earlier by someone, CBdDwill help keep the stone in check. It balances things out so you don't get too crazy stoned.

Strains, indica/sativa should be considered. If making something for sleep, you may not want to use a sativa since sativas can be uplifting, where indica is more relaxing and sedating.
Looking at the terpene profile of your bud will help. Myrcene, Caryophyllene will be more relaxing and sedating. Strains high in limonene, pinene, can be more uplifting.

I usually do a mix of fresh material from plants in late veg, mid flower and late flower when I do lollipopping. I put everything through the food processor and into the pressure cooker with some water and 500g of butter. It creates a very medicinal butter.

Yea idk what happened maybe old or expired milk chocolate. Like 8 months old or more. I just was sick of dark chocolate even though it hides the weed taste better. Its bitter which is why I think. The milk chocolate is sweet and just not really chocolate they say.

It just turned into a paste. I swore I used this before I dont know what happened. I prefer milk chocolate I really dont like dark chocolate other than for this. So I grabbed a cup of dark and 2 tbsp cannabutter of course lecithin enhanced 20%. It mixed like liquid like its supposed to so damn idk.

The thing with me is this lecithin 20% cannabutter is the only thing thats ever worked. Its like a if it aint broke dont fix it type thing. I dont think Id notice any difference in how I cooked it maybe might lose potency.

I dont get perfect temps but it just works, like its about getting most of it decarbed to get a consistant product. Vs letting them degrade or not getting enough of it decarbed idk.

I just learned from @BrassNwood and never looked back. Infact your methods officially got me very stoned I just needed a lower tolerance. I have yet to create edibles with out lecithin to see if it works but idk why do that.

I was struggling very hard to ever get just one buzz from edibles that I can say yea it got me stoned. If 500mg of rso wont get me high idk what will.

I need a low dose if I had to guess maybe 25-50mg in chocolate or just food in general. Idk why but I dont get very high if I eat the freshly made oil, it has to be in food. Then bababoiya. Nothing else works no matter how much of it I eat.

For those that dont know so you dont have to dig around, just decarb up to 1g buds in oven. 40mins 245F just the traditional sweet spot of decarb temp. Shake/trim just put it on a tray I put aluminum foil. Its important not to break up the material too much like a coffee grinder.

Id just break them down into pop corn nugs by hand, literally not hard to get too much plant dust. That burned my stomach really bad. I just put the buds or shake/trim into 1/2 cup coconut oil mixed with 1.6 tbsp lecithin any kind which will be 20% lecithin. About 7-14 gs material.

I mix coco and lecithin first in something heat resistant on the stove on low. Like a glass pouring measuring cup, a small one and larger ones will help when you strain the butter. Just helps to work with oils when pouring precious oils. Submerge weed gently but also give a gentle stir. Infuse in oven 20 mins 220F.

Pull out of oven give a gentle stir. Strain weed through cheese cloth but something finer would be better but not quite fine as a coffee filter. Some plant bits and dust is ok just not tons of it but something finer than a cheese cloth would be better.

Now its done, you only run it through, do not squeeze it or stir it too rough. Youre just making sure you got enough hash seperated from material and infused with lecithin liposome bubbles. Like washing for bubble hash, too much agitation and theres now plant matter in it which can burn your stomach.

I put a spin on everything and started doing freshly chopped material right off the living plant. It not only works it also hits stronger. Idk why but it did hit harder shit I wish I didnt mix them up so I can try it on a low tolerance like now. If its not stronger its at least convenient you should try it.
