No just wanted to keep it in there for a while lol. First time I’ve used water in the mix as well. They maybe a tad much but I like them. I took one today and phoned in and went fishing lol.

I have these 2 large mold I want to make big sized gummy in and have a Zombie Party!!! Whoo Hooo! I can put the gummy cakes on a plate and have people tear into them with thier mouths.
Thanks for sharing everyone. I followed a very similar recipe that Amber used except I only used 4g of Northern Lights And my gelatin was beef based. I also used lecithin and the consistency of the gummy bears were perfect.
I greatly enjoyed the Mindys brand of 5mg gummies and this is what I am hoping to replicate. The flavor isnt necessarily important, I just hate the room spinning while in the fetal position. 5 or 10 mg is all I need but I tried a half of mine yesterday and then the other half and didn’t feel a thing. Will slowly increase half gummies but Im wondering if my dose is way off. I filled 4 50 (200 total) molds and then 3 half whisky ice molds because I had extra.
My bears appear to be closer to 3/4” if there is such a thing. I will measure or find which I bought.
Again I’d rather work my way to comfort than be floored. The pictures on page 8 or 9 appear to be the same size as mine but I must have goofed somewhere.
I’ll try posting the link for what I followed - if allowed on forum. https://cannigma.com/recipes/how-to-make-cannabis-gummies/
I’ll update with progress.

I just made another batch and compared to the last these are about half strength, they also seperated slightly (only a few). I typically use 3/4-1 ounce of bud (yes they typically kick ass) but these not so much lol. Not complaining though as the last batch put me on my ass after 1, now to get the “don’t get off the couch” effect it takes 2.5 with 1 being just nice and mild.

I am so glad to hear how well everyone is doing and that this thread has been helpful. That was my intention .
I taught my sister in law how to make gummies for my brother . We did it together for the first try. I gave her all the instructions and all my ingredients and equipment. and then she did it alone . She was nervous and I guess something went wrong and the flavor was off the first time but she kept on and The second time she made them she nailed it and now she is a pro!
it takes practice and my advice is to not give up. You can do it ! Focus, confidence and I know you will be successful! Awesome job!

Just one observation I’ve made. I really don’t like the taste of pot but I’ve found that raspberry jello seems to be the best at masking so far but I’ve only tried orange, strawberry and raspberry

I'm about to start making gummies and this thread was very helpful so hopefully I won't make too many rookie mistakes.
I blew $150Can ordering two 4ml - 192 cavity sheets that were on sale for $40US but with shipping and exchange put a dent in my VISA card. One is the Canadian emblem for THC used on legal pot here and the other is just CBD in block letters. When I first got them and saw CBD wasn't reversed like THC was I thought they would come out backwards on the gummies and sent a bit of a bitchy email to the company but they assured me it comes out OK so I tried sticking some modelling clay into one and damned if they weren't right. Colour me red in the face.
Just about to order 2kg each of cherry, orange and lemon Jell-O from amazon . ca but will see if they have the guar gum too as that seems like a useful ingredient. Each mould takes 768ml to fill all the spaces so will be big batches and I will be using concentrated oils to get my meds in the mix. As I have issues with alcohol I think I'll use a Tbsp of MCT oil to dissolve the pot oil to get it in. I just set a little beaker on my coffee warmer and it stirs right in nicely.
A thought I have is use the big cookie sheet I got for the wife that has a nice flat wire rack that my new moulds fit on perfectly so put some water in the cookie sheet and set it across two elements on the stove to keep the water hot but not boiling then as I fill the holes it will stay liquid until I remove it from the heat. Then rather than try to fill each one with a squeeze bottle or something just pour it on and use a straight edge to scrape the whole thing to one end to be caught on some parchment paper or the large silicon sheet that came with the cookie sheet set and why I bought the damn thing in the first place. Didn't have to tell the wife that so she was happy with her 'present'.
That company in the links sells all sorts of different moulds and has some specific to some US states and the Canadian THC one I mentioned. also after I paid for them they sent me a 10% discount code for my next purchase but I don't need anything else from them so mentioned that and they refunded my VISA that 10% so really nice people and every email was answered right away. 2 thumbs up from me!

I worked at a pot store (just fired, new business owners withheld my pay raise) and we just had a a rep come in showing off new take home kits that will be showing up in Canadian stores/sites soon. It’s a complete gummie kit with silicon mold(s) which can be given a good strength with an additional THC oil/powder. Potentially, you can make yourself higher concentrated gummies then what is allowed by the Canadian Government itself in store. The rep said it costs them $18 and I believe the asking MSRP is $45

couple things you may have better luck with your gummies if you add your sun flower lecithin last as its meant to bind everything together thats probably why you see your coconut oil separate from your gelatine in the molds. its also wise to bloom your unflavoured gelatine before it goes in the pot with the heat. i made a recipe for gummy bears it works very well and i have some detailed instructions in my grow journal feel free to take a look this may be of some help.

my carbon filter finally arrived, i turned on the a/c and the co2 and what a difference that makes i duno why i didnt build a sealed room years ago. the insulation and sound proofing works well dont see any temperature difference in adjacent rooms. ive decided to exhaust the room for an hour...

The way I'm going to be doing mine and have using chocolate is to make oil from the pot first then about an equal of MCT to thin it out then decarb. I do add liquid sunflower lecithin and also use that when just cooking up bud in coconut oil to eat as is or in baked goods.
My bulk Jell-O has shipped so will be trying a gummie run soon I hope. Still have to go through a couple pounds of frozen fresh bud to make the oil yet but that's just a day or two of dedicated distilling to get that together.

Cool. Yeah, I have powdered sunflower lecithin on hand, but not liquid. I'm really wondering if it's needed for emulsification, since I like to use oil that's dissolved in a little alcohol and am not dealing with the fat/water situation. I haven't used lecithin when I've made chocolates either, but maybe I should and would get a more consistent blend.

i havent personally tried to make gummy bears with oil from alcohol however i believe the principle would be the same as long as you add the powdered lecithin or the sun flower oil last it should bind everything together. you said your going to use the powdered lecithin i assume its granules id recommend running it through a coffee grinder so that its a fine powder you need every granule to dissolve when its added so powder is best. i think itll be fine its similar to jello shooters with extra unflavoured gelatine and candy flavouring

Supposedly the lecithin binds to the cannabinoids and helps them pass from the gut into the bloodstream. When cooking bud in coconut oil I would add the lecithin after the mix cooled below 100C/212F and let if cook then strain out the bud. Then I had read that you should freeze and thaw it twice to bind it all up so I do that with the coconut oil or other oil cooks like it but didn't with the chocolates. They got froze overnight tho.

Have you ever heard of lecithin screwing up a recipe? I haven't.
I use liquid lecithin (now brand) mostly and other than a very slight taste I haven't heard any negatives.
