Re: Making cannabis infused coconut oil with a half ounce [Re: Shroomopotamus]
    #23576595 -

Is there anything coconut oil isn't better for? I even had this wicked gash on my arm from an offroading accident a while ago, it was getting super infected and looked horrible. It wasn't really healing very well. Then my lady suggested coconut oil, it scabbed up in a day or two, then the scab fell off not long after. Which is great because it was rubbing on my work uniform. But yeah, coconut oil is so much better for an infusion. Tastier too. I have a jar I keep around and just eat a spoonful or two when I want that dank body high. Butter can probably be as potent but oil is easier to work with imo. It just seems more consistent for whatever reason.

Coconut oil?? Just make canna butter!



coconut oil is much better for both edibles and health reasons



It's better for making edibles but is pretty bad for you health-wise.

So its worse becouse it contains 90 saturated fat instead of 64% like butter? :rolleyes:

Also from that link:

Quote:
But what's interesting about coconut oil is that it also gives "good" HDL cholesterol a boost. Fat in the diet, whether it's saturated or unsaturated, tends to nudge HDL levels up, but coconut oil seems to be especially potent at doing so.

Saturated fat is divided into various types, based on the number of carbon atoms in the molecule, and about half of the saturated fat in coconut oil is the 12-carbon variety, called lauric acid. That is a higher percentage than in most other oils, and is probably responsible for the unusual HDL effects of coconut oil. But plant-based oils are more than just fats. They contain many antioxidants and other substances, so their overall effects on health can't be predicted just by the changes in LDL and HDL.

But, for now, I'd use coconut oil sparingly. Most of the research so far has consisted of short-term studies to examine its effect on cholesterol levels. We don't really know how coconut oil affects heart disease. And I don't think coconut oil is as healthful as vegetable oils like olive oil and soybean oil, which are mainly unsaturated fat and therefore both lower LDL and increase HDL. Coconut oil's special HDL-boosting effect may make it "less bad" than the high saturated fat content would indicate, but it's still probably not the best choice among the many available oils to reduce the risk of heart disease.



So it might be less healthy for the heart pretty much but is also healthier then other oils in other ways :shrug:

Re: Making cannabis infused coconut oil or butter with a half ounce [Re: Kenetic]

This is the best way to make butter. 

Grind your herb up, wrap in foil but makes sure the weed is spread out (or put in baking dish and wrap foil over top, you want the herb to evenly heat), and put in the oven at 230 degree F for 20 minutes or so.  This is the decarboxylation step.  It's important if you want your edibles to be dank.

If I had a half oz, I would use 2 sticks of butter if I wanted potent, 4 sticks if I wanted something more manageable that I could munch on because cookies are good.

Melt the butter into a small pot on medium heat while the herb is decarbing.

Once the butter is melted and the herb has decarbed, add the herb to the melted butter and mix it in well.  You don't want the butter to simmer. 

Once the herb and butter is mixed together, add water to the pot.  The water pulls cholorphyll from the herb, making it easier on the stomach and it also prevents the butter from overcooking and burning off THC.  Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat so it is at a simmmer.  Make sure the water doesn't boil away or you'll end up boiling your butter and reducing potency.

Let simmer for an hour or two, add some more water if you have to.  I hear the longer you let it simmer the stronger it gets, but my edibles always come out very potent after an hour or two of simmering (depends on how much time you have.  An hour will work).

Once the time is up, turn the heat off and let cool a little bit and then cover and put in the fridge overnight. 

In the morning, the water and butter will have formed two layers.  The butter will be on top and some nasty ass water will be on the bottom.  I tend to take a knife and run it around the rim of the butter and gently lift it and place on a paper towel and then pour the water out.

Then cook accordingly.  I usually get some instant cookies that just add butter, an egg, and a little water.  Then you can figure out how much each cookie has by doing some maths based on how much herb used in the butter, how much butter used in the batch, and how many cookies you made.

Have fun.

No it's not. If you do the extraction properly you're decarbing while you extract as the temps are pretty much the same

i only use edibles & I never decarb & they're always great

Thank you all do much for your contributions and help!

Unfortunately I couldn't afford the extra bud this Paycheck after all, so I'll study all the info you have provided
And make my first batch in two weeks !

:japsmile:

You guys are the best I'll give y'all five shroom ratings if I haven't already

Sugarleaf/ trim work fine too if you can find some cheaper.

Sugarleaf, what a cool name! :grin:

Im guessing sugarleaf is the same as trimmings?

It is really dank trimmings essentially, from quality sugary plants and well sifted through so it has no stems or other plant matter besides this:



It generally makes the best extracts aside from using bud and also has the best return which can be in the 15-25% area depending on the quality/ genetics.

Another tip is, after you make your butter with whatever method you choose, melt the butter in a little pot of water, mix it around for a minute, stick back in the fridge and when it cools the water will be separated from the butter and will not taste as nasty.  Plus it'll be a lighter green.

Finely grind flower and mix into half a cup (or more) of melted coconut oil. Put in an oven safe dish and bake at 250F for 30 mins to decarb. Don't strain the oil and bake into whatever you want.

That's how a recreational edible manufacturer in Colorado taught me how to do it :shrug:. I've never had a weak batch from this method.



that looks like stripped down version of the best i've ever tried.

i've made extracts many different ways in the last few decades but never for a business like some more experienced peeps.  having said that the method at the link below takes the proverbial cake.  by far and away the best and it's not even close IME.

the best method for super potent oil using decarb methods, coconut oil, and lecithin
