    Extraction methods. Need help and explanations.

    Hi guys! :leaf: After some more experimenting, I have to dismiss my statements about THC percentage in the oil. Turns out I have used the wrong settings with the tCheck device... :roll: Seems that old posts cannot be edited either. I apologize for the inconvenience! The recipe of extracting...

    @Freedom seed -I like your inputs! ;) @mauricem00 I don't know "green dragon", but I guess you mean Quick Wash with ISOpropyl-alcohol? I have no doubt this is very effective! -Reading it yields nearly as good as Butan wash! Did a small test myself with good luck. Didn't boil though, just let...

    Yes I was also thinking 1:1 - CBD:THC. Probably adding CBG to the mix! For seed I assume you are talking about e.g. adding to your breakfast, salad and stuff? I understand they are extremely rich in protein and polyunsaturated fatty acids. -Did you know that feeding cattle with hemp, you do...

    Thanks @Freedom seed I am glad you bother to educate me! :peace: :wall: Yes it sounds really interesting with the capsules! -He was quite harsh in his word use about all b-s info that is spread... I wonder how all testimonials with diesel-boiling ugliness would have sounded if all that people...

    Hi guys. I just had a quite interesting conversation with a hemp producer. Please give me your thoughts! First, when I asked for higher cannabinoid concentration hemp, to be able to make higher concentration oil, he refereed me to PRESSING the oil! Putting it back in the boiler, and doing it...

    @gb123 I am glad to hear! :peace: @Freedom seed I have never even seen home-made hash or kief... Sounds nice! 8) Got the tCheck now, and it works a charm! Seems the recipe of 100g. dry weed per litre oil in a 2 hour ~105°C-110°C crock-pot, gives about a 1:1 THC ratio so to speak. That is, a...

    Extraction methods. Need help and explanations.

    I've just read that the decomposition of short and medium chain triglycerides (SCT/MCT) start already in the mouth, while long chain triglycerides (like olive oil) mainly are done in the small intestine. Sounds like coco DO play a part even if you add to you gum?... I do understand there are...

    Yes nutrition is a study of its own... And I understand the "packet" of getting good health from cannabis includes some other type of living then what I (sorry to say so) have bothered to look into... But maybe me too learn some day... :P (Of course I understand people getting forced too learn...

    Yes it is pricey. Close to coco and MCT here, so that shouldn't be cardinal... Taste is another thing though, but I like the taste of hemp! and my first thought about this when I first bought some CBD oil, was that hemp seed should be the OBVIOUS choice!... :roll: I also actually have found...

    @Freedom seed Thank you! Yes I am excited! 8) Why do you choose coconut oil? Taste or function? Or because it stiffens perhaps? As you refer to edibles I also assume you freeze in the matter of "cleaning the butter"? But I really wonder about freezing half way through heating process to get...

    Not like anyone showed any interest, but for the tCheck cannabinoid test machine, I have got some thorough email answers from their support I thought I'd share. You'll find $25 discount codes all over the net, so this thing is at the moment to be bought for $255,- I also add the instruction .pdf...

    So far I just made 3 tiny small tests... And I have no way of telling any "potency" except the highly subjective feeling… :p First took one half of 5g. landrace buds and: 1.) Just for fun, - pressed rosin at my motorcycle workshop with a couple of thick iron blocks heated in the oven. -Worked...

    @Freedom seed Well... I don't know if I want that water at all... :P But I read somewhere that it is beneficial solving CBD in water due to bioavailability. -This also seems to make a good reason to add extractions to your gums, or under tongue, when I read 1'st pass metabolism wont let more...

    @Freedom seed @JohnDee Thank you for the input. It certainly looks like I should continue in those thoughts! I have now ordered two different hemp concentrates. One of them with 38% CBC! and with several terp's added. Exited to try it out! Also ordered a small amount of some Indica dominant...

    @Freedom seed I am happy to hear about THCa/CBDa, and I also understand it might be a disappointment somehow. I am actually thinking of doing both decarbed oil and not, and experiment about it a bit. Maybe even combine?... :) I can stuff my self with what ever! ha ha ha... But it is many years...

    @JohnDee Well... I can appreciate what you mean... -Ill tell you a little story: As I mentioned I have been making quite a lot of alcohol for many years. A friend of mine taught me his secrets and got me going. He was a really great self-made "scientist" in the matter and did fine-tune and...
