That would solve the problem about not getting high, but cannabutter still tastes pretty bad. That's why it's usually hidden in baked goods with stronger flavors like chocolate.
It doesn't need to go into a lipid. You can just put like an eighth of weed into some tinfoil in the oven, bake it and then throw it into a coffee grinder and stir it into chocolate.
Chocolate will get you totally toasted, but your shit will smell like weed the next day.
The overuse of the word shit made me take a second to realise you meant actual shit and you weren't saying that your oven and house in general will somehow start smelling more weed-like after a 24 hour period post bake.
If you're particularly lazy and want to check how a plant is doing you can even just microwave to activate it. put it in a glass cup with a damp paper towl under it, cover with a second damp paper towl, cover in plastic wrap except a small gap like you're making a microwave dinner. Cook for a minute at a time on 20-30% power and let the steam release between cooks. Do that 2-3 times then remove nug from container and let it sit a few minutes on a plate or something.
Cool, yeah, that makes sense. I guess that's why AVB works too (eating the leftover buds after vaping). Gotta be careful with it though cuz the dosage can really be a wide range.
First time I ever ate weed a friend of mine took my birthday nuggs and ground them up and put the weed in a pan with some butter then drained it in to a shot glass with honey and gave it a little nuke to soften everything up. Considering how makeshift it was and the gross little bits of leaf getting caught in your mouth it was surprisingly good, the actual weed component of it made the whole thing taste a little like crunchy nut cereal with an oddly herbaceous element to it. Having seen how you're supposed to make weed butter properly in the time since, it's surprising that this worked so well but my god I was high as a kite, it was amazing. Don't know if, given the pretty brief time spent on heat with the butter, maybe it was necessary to actually eat the weed itself rather than strain it, wouldn't recommend that if can be avoided but then again this was all ready in under 10 minutes.
I've never had any success making edibles out of flower. It always comes out too weak, even if I follow the decarb instructions perfectly.
It's much easier to just mix some distillate into whatever you want to turn into an edible. No cooking needed, just mix in and enjoy. I like to mix in some distillate with Everclear and then water it down with vodka to make it drinkable. Gets you stupid stoned stupid quick.
$20 to get my wife and I high with nice breath (mints) every weekend for a few months. Mind you I do love my dry herb vape for fine tuning my high but yeah it's so affordable
Gummies
1. Place 1 cup cannabis in a ball jar with lid finger tight
2. Add 2 cups water to pressure cooker
3. Place interface between glass jar and metal of pressure cooker.
4. Use “Manual” button and set to high pressure for 40 minutes
5. Let pressure naturally release
6. Add 1 cup of fat (coconut oil, butter, avocado oil etc) to jar with cannabis
7. Place back in pressure cooker as before- Manual, high, 40 mins
8. Let pressure naturally release
9. Strain out cannabis. I have used various methods but I believe using a French press (for coffee) is the simplest and cleanest
This fat can now be consumed and will get you high
Gummies recipe
I use refined coconut oil for the extraction for this recipe
In a small pot, combine
-1/2 cup cold water
-2 tablespoons of cannabis infused coconut oil
-6 tablespoons regular coconut oil
-1/4 teaspoon soy lecithin powder (this is necessary as it allows oil and water to mix; also helps absorption of THC into the body.
Heat on LOW heat. Mixture can not boil
Slowly add:
-3oz (small) pack of jell-o
-3 envelopes of Knox gelatin
Mix/stir by hand for 10 minutes
Pour into mold or nonstick pan and let set in freezer for 20-30 mins
Remove from mold, consume, and blast off.
I just make warm chocolate milk, let the weed stay in there for a bit while heating up, then strain and enjoy. I quite like the grassy undertone in the milk.
Yes my friend made this once and it was the most disgusting thing ever.
Also so strong we'd have a shot and get knocked out.
Could those two be related? We'll never know.
