about making it really strong. I've read there is a point where the butter cannot absorb any more cannabinoids.

thoughts?

https://www.rollitup.org/cooking-cannabis/412878-badkats-cannapharm-canna-caps-uv.html <<< My edible bible. This edible hash oil recipe (butter/almond oil/coconut oil/avocado oil combo) is an extremely concentrated recipe. I do not know what is the breaking point for canna absorption, and I'd think it would be hard to find out what that would be with your particular strain of pot without a lab handy and a full page of scratch math.

I don't use the avocado oil, it has a low smoking point, and I'd like to have the ability to cook hot or cold, even if I don't plan on any hot recipes when I'm making my edible hash.

I usually use about half hash, half fats. If I needed more fat, I would have never known because I usually cut it with a plain fat source when cooking. I love all the recipes on that thread, well, all that I have tried. Really only the Cannabombs and the Cannacaps, but I should try some of the savory dishes for sure.

Awesome Jozi! BKS is where I learned everything...much props to her. That is good info you gave too, about mixing the fats. I have never tried that before. I do go through a shit ton of butter though. I dry ice first, and make hash coconut oil with it and use the trim for butter. I still kick myself in the ass thinking of all the times I threw it away after! DOH!!!

wow great discussion on edibles. I didn't know it went so deep! I've never used lecithin or decarbed my weed or hash prior to cooking- I never thought it needed to be stronger. maybe more efficient is how I need to look at it.

I do know this though - edibles are way to easy too overdose on! I've done it a couple of times eating bubble hash to the point where I literally couldn't walk and was having more intense hallucinations than I've had on LSD. It's funny to me now but at the time I was terrified! Be careful folks! And share your stories when you do go overboard please.

It probably won't make it to the next morning. FYI putting it in your freezer can damage the compressor. Best to just put it in a cooler.

I get everything ready to run & then go get the dry ice and use it immediately. At the BBQ I bought 5lbs in the morning on my way to the BBQ, and we made keif all day with it.......

The decarb isn't necessarily to make it more potent, although it does help with the potency. Decarb is to convert the the THC into the psycho active component...Jozi!!! I need your brain here...I know you can describe this better than I lol. But yes, Hoonry, making it more efficient.

LOL...funny you mention hallucinations. I have been told my cookies were like a mushroom trip haha.

So if you dry ice your trim and used the material for butter after words there is still enough stuff in it to work ?

yes sir :) I wouldn't have thought there would be, but yep. I also don't shake it for very long. I shake just enough to get the goodness. Not looking for any green in my gold

How you doing TWS?

I have dry iced trim and then blasted it and get a good return so it makes sense. I'm good really. The Mrs has some stomach problems and she has been going thru test after test.It's taken weeks and she is not eating much because it makes her stomach hurt. We are getting ready to go to another one here in a few. I want to tell her we are going up North for a week for her B-day (BBQ time) but want to wait to see what is wrong before I make any plans.

What kind of pains? Does it feel like really full but she is hungry? Or like glass shards in the top portion? Verping? If so, have her try taking omeprazole (prilosec I believe) and a strong (at least 1 but preferable 2 billion cultures per dose) probiotic. Name brands would be, Pearls, Align, or something similiar, but you can just go to your vitamin section at wallyworld and look for the probiotics - way cheaper ;) Hope that helps some. And Def hope to see you at the BBQ!

My wife had stomach problems too and I had her try some probiotics, they fixed her up good and now she takes them everyday.

I always take them after I've been prescribed antibiotics, those always mess up my stomach.

Hooray, FINALLY got all the trimming done
Google weather is smoking some serious crack - said it was going to be 9 degrees, actually was 31!!! Stupid panic-inducing Google
Oh well, it was a good excuse to get it all in, and now I don't have to worry anymore!! I think all told I'm going to end up w/ about 1 3/4 #'s from 6 plants - most of that was on the Black Cherry & Deadhead OG, the others just gave me an oz or 2 each
That'll be nice to switch up flavors a few times over the next year. I'm set 'til next harvest, YEAH!!! Here's my fave pic - a 1 gallon jar full of Black Cherry :weed: Happy smoking everyone, and I wish I could come to this BBQ you all speak of - it sounds pretty epic!! lol
