Some recipes say, stick the cannabis in the oven for 20 min, then pour it into boiling water, adding the butter/coconut oil, fat,etc.,

Others say, just boil water; add the fat, and then the cannabis.

Therefore, before I waste any pot, I'd like full proof recipe on how to do this....


or maybe both work.
 
While still warm, pour the mixture into a hypodermic syringe and inject into your cephalic vein.

Both prob work but I've always decarboxylated before I mix with the fat/oils (oven first).

That being said I've never done tea, always butter. Spread it on a mint patty and you can't even taste it.

Veins carry blood away from the brain towards the heart/lungs......if he wants to max the effect the carotid artery is the clear choice for a main line.

Sure, if you can find it.

Ill try the oven method first...

It's not that hard, unless you're dealing with a major fatty...but then that makes hitting anything difficult.

Sorry if the word fatty got you all triggered out.

If in doubt, check on erowid. Here's a link to an account of using ganja tea (no added fat/oil) vs smoking the herb. Apparently, the fatless infusion wasn't very psychoactive but was relaxing enough to explain why it's used in Jamaican folk medicine.

When extracting THC into fat, Coconut oil is your best choice. I believe that is due to coconut oil's higher level of saturated fat which is what THC clings to during the extraction process (but I have never read the science what I am saying may be inaccurate or incomplete). I have used butter and coconut oil with my vape leavings, and for sure the coconut oil extraction seems twice as potent.
 
You don't even need to use fancy pants weed to get the effect. I had a garbage bag of clippings and stems and boiled that down with three pounds of butter. Strain. Strain. Strain.

DO NOT throw your strained bits into a fire pit intending to burn it away, but then forget about it. Your pets will get into it and lick it, and that'll fuck their shit up royally. For a day. :cool:

Chop the buds (deseeded) and dry the pieces with a dehydrator (or similar manual method). Then blend them to a powder.

Then use it just as you would in a Japanese tea ceremony, whisking it into hot water.

I mean :eek: ..., IF I did that sort of thingy...

From what I've read, I think you are right. I plan to use coconut oil, gonna tryto make it later today.

I am certainly right that coconut oil extracts more THC, the only thing up for question in my post is why coconut oil is the superior choice for extracting THC.

It might....20 min decarb, an hour in coconut oil, and wow.....shit be strong. It takes about an hour to work, kind of wild.

I would say, one has to be really careful with edibles, too much and you're screwed.... dont get crazy with those gummy bears

Only an hour? I put it in a mini crock put overnight. Might be overkill though, I don't know.
 
yes, one hour.... stirring occasionally.

maybe i'll try longer. But how strong do you want this stuff?

I want to extract every molecule THC possible.

(In a crockpot, I never stirred. Too lazy. At that low of a temperature there is no need to worry about burning.)
