Tha Thanks for the reading material

I would guess there is a limit to what the butter can hold, I wouldn't use it to run a second batch of weed. At 1oz of buds or 2oz of trim per pound of butter, it is very strong. I like simmering with water overnight, and do the cheese cloth straining into a bowl which sits in the fridge to...

I'll have to go back to my books. I thought there were striking parallels in their accounts, and as the early Christians were fond of burying other faiths by building churches on the sites of other belief systems, and absconding with others' days of celebration. Isn't it considered likely that...

It is not a subtle thing. I have been making brownies with leaves and trim for 20 years. This is the first time I used the same amount of material I previously used or a single batch of brownies, 4 oz., but this time it went into canna butter, and only 1/3 of that was used in the brownies, These...

I have to take exception to the notion that crispy dry pot is decarbed. The material I just used was trimmed two months ago. The average RH% here is 15-20%. If that wasn't dry I don't know what dry is. Anyway, I watched it decarb (outgas) for 25 minutes at 250°F, so it was not decarbed from...

The cult of Mithras... Wasn't he worshiped by the Roman soldiers, born of a virgin birth and rose from the dead, similar to the later Jesus?

I made some canna butter using stbwolfe's recipe from another posting. However, I decarbed the canna butter. I used the same 4oz that I would have used for flour as I mentioned above. I reclaimed only 3/4 of the butter from the process, and used 1/3 of that, or 1/2 lb of canna butter for...

I just made my first batch of canna butter, and decarbed it at 250° for 25 minutes. I used 4 oz of trim in 2lbs of butter. The same amount of trim in a batch of brownies ground up as flour makes 105 modestly strong brownies, I can eat 2-3 at a time. Using 1/2 lb of the canna butter, decarbed, or...

I gather from the dosage that was mentioned by stbwolfe that the canna butter recipe for this thread is not decarbed. The brownies I made with the decarbed butter are the strongest edibles I have ever had. Excellent clear-headed high. I consumed three over the course of the day and smoked about...

The brownies are great at 90 per sheet, using 1/2 lb or 1/3 of the butter I ended up with. The decarbing must be the trick because I've used the same 4 oz of trim as flour in brownies for a single batch and they are not this strong. This will produce three batches.. I found pictures of potato...

I never heard of one before, what is a potato ricer? I have a pan of brownies cooling on the counter. For a first go, I'll try a size that would give 90 brownies. I am suspecting that by decarbing the butter, it will yield 3-4 times the dosage as the non-decarbed butter. As MajorDisaster...

Decarbed the butter and added lecithin. Starting with about 1020 grams of butter, I have 720 grams of finished product. Onegreenday's suggestion of a press would be handy. Alternatively one could wash the hand squeezed material in alcohol and cook the alcohol off. Seems like a decent process...

I have the water drained, and rinsed the butter bottom in situ, prior to quartering the hardened butter. I realized last night this process does not decarb the butter. If I did a QWISO wash, I would expect ~12gms of wax, which when decarbed would be 300 strong doses in the 25-30mg range. I am...

Thanks for posting this stbwolfe. I followed pretty closely except at the filtering point. I put a 12" fine mesh frying-oil-splatter-prevention screen over the large pyrex dish, used four layers of cheese cloth on top of that, 18" squares, and poured the liquid and solids from the crock pot onto...

I like to use the leaves for flour in baking brownies. It takes about four ounces to replace a cup of flour. I add an extra egg and double the chocolate for flavor. Whatever size brownie works out to about a gram of flour makes a good dose. By a gram of flour mean the ground up leaves, one gram...

I agree with SnapsProvolone. It is something you have to watch and stir. I've only done it when mixed with coconut or olive oil for canna caps, which avoids the problem of Klite's concern about the sticky residue and potential waste if I read him right. However, at 250°, wax is going to be...

Could it be possible that the oil you had in the freezer was used for the leaky caps? If so, it may be water condensing on the oil and then getting into your caps that is causing problems.

I've used my fan leaves for cooking for many years. I grind them and use it as flour. I've found about a gram to be a good dose. In an 11" X 17" baking pan, a batch of brownies with ~100 gm of ground fan leaves, one cup, can make 105 brownies (7 X 15). I usually double the chocolate to cover the...

These folks extract and sell food-grade oils and terpenes. I got some eucalyptol from them a couple years ago. I believe they have limonene and many others. http://www.lebermuth.com/

I like a temperature probe so I know what the temperature is. The hotter it gets the faster the THC will degrade. Here is an old graph showing the decarb vs. temperature process. http://i57.tinypic.com/ea332d.jpg I wouldn't trust the temperature settings on a griddle without confirming the...
