Made another batch yesterday.

The first two I did previously; one done with 8g decarbed flower mixed with 1/2c coconut oil and lecithin at 8g, and the other done with the same materials but infused in the coconut oil came out pretty weak. One capsule gave no perceived effects, two capsules gave extremely mild results. The infusion method were a tiny bit stronger than the non-infused, oddly.

This time I did 21g decarbed with 1/2c coconut oil + lecithin, non-infusion. Haven't tested yet, but we'll see if it kicks my ass or not. Technically should be ~23mg per capsule give or take.

My weakest edibles start at about 18-20mg and go up to 50mg.

As long as I use daily my tolerance stays about the same. If I take a break though my normal doses seem a lot stronger.

I ended up swallowing one of this new batch last night, and while the math comes out to 23mg, my reaction was probably closer to ~14-16mg.

That probably tracks, given my previous two batches I thought would be ~10-12 and ended up being closer to maybe 5mg.

That's all fine, because if my wife wants any, she'd go for low low dosage anyway...and this gives me the option of one (not really noticeable but maybe I sleep better), two (can feel it but mild), and taking one of the stronger ones and being high as a fuckin' kite for the night.

Hi Guys Hello Everyone :leaf::D

I do edibles without the oils and such, just milled flower and capsule.

My recipe:
CBD or MMJ flower

Coffee mill/grinder grinds 1.7-7grams in like 5 seconds:
this is not your smoke grinder consistency, it comes out too fine to smoke but great for baking

Pyrex measuring cup with handle to put the milled flower in. tinfoil top cover

Pyrex goes in a pot of water with the cup handle over the edge, boiling water 1/3way up the outside of the cup (keep the water rolling boiling on stove).
It's best to keep the pyrex bottom not flat against the water pot bottom

the idea here is to heat the flower no higher than boiling temp so it'll decarboxylate but not release THC/CBD
as the water boils the water and the whole thing will stay at 100 degrees Celsius. cup tinfoil lid

Stir a few times over 10-20mintues

Put the decarboxylated milled flower on a plate and put it in capsules. Scoop with each half capsule and combine. nitrile gloves

1.7gram made 36 capsules "size 4 capsules". 1700mg flower * 0.15 (15)percent canabinoid / 36 servings = 7mg/capsule (THC)
7gram made 23 capsules "size 00 capsules". 7000mg flower * 0.15 (15)percent canabinoid / 23 servings = 45mg/capsule (CBD)

after 6 months they are pretty much completely expired. a one month supply at a time

Seems much more work than using MCT oil.

Having made literarily thousands (i am a caregiver) of weed capsules i can say they are much stronger and come on faster, and last longer when using coconut oil and lecithin.

Try some each way and compare. This study shows a 2.5 times increase when using a lipid (fat/oil).



The absolute bioavailability of THC was increased by more than 2.5-fold following oral administration in the lipid-based formulation compared to lipid-free vehicle.
