Question about making edibles.

So if I use paleos decarboxylation method. http://www.growery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/553792#553792
Do I need to use any sort of fat and make an extraction in order to use said herb effectively? Or can I just throw the decarbed herb into any sort of food and get the same effect without pissing around with fats and such?
Wanted to decarb and put 0.3 into each of these http://www.spoonforkbacon.com/2011/12/chocolate-covered-peanut-butter-ritz-sandwiches/
Would this work out alright and get me and my friends good and plastered? Or is my friend right and I have to use a fat extraction to make edibles properly?

My understanding was that decarbing was to make the majority of the things you want, available so to speak for the fat extraction. I may be wrong but that's what I've always done. Decarb, then I usually simmer in an oil but I've used butter as well.
-------------------- Alright then, picture this if you will: 10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes, in my "need to know" post, just outside of Area 51. Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thing with just a flaming stealth banana split the sky like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this. Cutting right angle donuts on a dime and stopping right at my Birkenstocks, and me yelping... Holy fucking shit!

This doesnt answer my question though. I do not seek to use fats or anything. Im asking if decarbed herb is the same potency regardless. I do not seek to fat extract this unless it is 100% necessary.

Throwing bud into anything doesn't work. You have to fat extract it. Decarbing makes the fat extraction more worth while. So to answer your question throwing decarbed bud in food without properly extracting what you want first doesn't work. Not very good at least.

Yeah you gotta cook it with a fat. There is a really good edible oil making tek that will get you the most outta your weed. I think like 1.5 grams of good weed will get you 8 doses.
I'll give you a link if you want.

Depends on tolerance, and orally you have to take much more than you would smoke. 1.5g is not 8 doses, it's more like 2-4.
A daily potsmoker like me would take the whole 1.5g in one strong, or maybe two mild edibles. But a person who has no experience with marihuana will most likely be floored with a whole gram.

If the weed is dry you dont need to decarb it. Dry cooking the buds just increases your chance of loss I say. Cook into some kind of fat source but keep temps low.

Turns out you guys are totally wrong. I threw 0.3g in each cookie and they tore people up. i ate 4 and couldnt even breath anymore. Or at least couldnt tell i was taking in oxygen.
This myth is busted wide open.
Lipids only increase your body's ability to absorb cannabinoids.
If I were to offer advice from my adventure with edibles.
Decarb with said method above. Freeze your weed overnight. Put in edibles with coconut oil and bake. You can just toss herb into each cookie once its on the tray for baking. Bake.
I froze mine again and dipped in chocolate and then froze again.
my 0.3g edibles were easily more potent than any edible ive had in my time in Boulder, CO.
Nobody has to agree with me. Experience tells me truth. Ill gladly post up my recipe though. The dankest trail mix fire crackers ever!
And im sure having the knowledge that fat extraction is far from necessary will enhance the realm of edibles for many.
Side note: Im sure most will argue you have to do this and that in butter or oil. Most tossing bud into these fats are decarbing in the oil. If you decarb ahead of time in your oven there is no need for the fat other than to potentiate it. 220 for 2 hours is fantastic. Just deprive the herb of oxygen like oils do. Tossing straight nug into anything doesnt do squat in my experience. But once its decarbed you could eat chocolate dipped nug and get wasted. I put my leftover from the whole process weight at .42 into an ice cube tray with chocolate to eat while waiting for my cookies to cool.

20mg edibles from the dispensary tear some people up
My dispensary weed is tested at 29.78% THC, so a gram has ~300mg of thc
.3 gram of that weed has 100mg of thc, which is 5 20mg doses
sounds like your weed is just shit
