You bet ...

You bet ...

half the fun is seeing how it hit your mates lol.

I once gave a Brownie to a friend of mines wife.

She said edibles don't work for her. Around an hour in I had to tell her husband to keep an eye on her (we were in my spa).

She was a hoot. She called my wife the next day and said she couldn't remember anything and woke up in the middle of the night with the mad munchies. She had forgotten about the Brownie.

I'll have to pass a few around :ying:

OK, did some field testing. :woohoo:

I gave a whole cookie to an experienced stoner.

He reported back that he ate the whole cookie over a period of about 45 minutes and then it kicked in.

It kicked his ass. He recommends a half a cookie for all but the pros. He said I should warn people to eat only half.

Next batch same recipe but twice as many.

Well for now I have some kick ass cookies :tiphat:

Nice happy for u bro. Now u just need some regular cookies to eat when the medibles kick in. Don't wanna get the munchies and eat a bunch more of those.
 
howdy.

i got my MB2 about 6 or 8 months ago? i'm real lazy and i love it. i ate too much pot once and now i always want to know how much i'm taking.

i'm a legal med user. never thought i'd see this day.

2 hours after i got the MB2 i had my first batch of oil i've made 5 batches of coconut canna oil total. i'm retired and have been smoking or vaping at least 1.5 grams of great pot everyday for years. for me, the perfect amount is 3 oz of bud to 16 oz of coconut oil. i use lecithin, freeze it and all the other suggestions to make it more bioavailable.

i did the first run without decarbing but from then on i decarbed first. if you don't decarb, i think you're missing out. i could be wrong but i don't think so, so why take the chance? i decarb at 240 for 30 to 50 minutes. still messing with these temps and times but i think i'm settled on 240 degrees for 50 mins. i have 3 different genetics of oil plus a bunch of ABV oil. four capsules get me right where i want to be. two capsules get my friends, who don't smoke everyday, right where they like to be. i love being able to change the dosage with one capsule.




for years i made fire crackers or pop and fresh sugar cookies. it was a hassle and nasty to eat first thing in the morning. with the capsules, when i'm in the mood, i wake up, eat a few and and an hour later, i'm smiling. my high lasts about 3 hours (not counting the first hour it takes to take effect) with an hour or so of spacey coming down, or as i like to call it, nap time.

i wish i would have thought of making these things years ago. instead of sitting around an office party wishing i could fire up a joint, i could just pop some caps and be happy, happy, happy.

i've found that i only get about 12 oz of oil when i've squeezed out the ball of leftover drek. 16 oz in, 12 oz out. i guess some evaporates from the machine and the rest is in the drek. oh well, i'll take it.

i've read that it's best to eat pot 45 mins or so after eating. after trying it on an empty stomach and after waiting 45 mins and an hour, i don't see one lick of difference so i don't bother waiting anymore. i'm retired, my time is valuable! :)

Nice post, do u ever find that ur capsules melt on u. It can be a nasty mess, I started storing them in the fridge to reduce the chances. But what a great way to take these meds! Also be ware after they kick in ur breath will smell like meds, and when u birp its like some exhaled a giant bong rip. Good stuff to know when u go out and want to be discreet.

i haven't had any melt but a few felt kind of wet after i had them in the car and went to take them. no leakage but it was like they were just ready to melt. i can legally wander around with weed on me. but i'm old school and still hide it like i was in HS. :)

i keep a few capsules in a pill bottle ready to take. i keep about 15 doses worth of caps in the fridge and the rest hasn't been capped yet and is in the freezer in mason jars or 4 oz medicine bottles with droppers. i only take the capsules every 3 days or so. they leave me a little cheesy/spaced out.

i never thought about the breath thing. i definately get pot burps but until just now, i didn't think that others might smell it too. too funny. that would be embarrasing if i wasn't legal.

for my next trick, i'm going to take 2 of one genetic and one each of the other genetics and see what kind of high that is. when i vape, i like blending my genetics, for what is sometimes a surprisingly lovely buzz.

come to think of it (i'm way high), i might just make one more batch of oil with one ounce of each. :biggrin:

Hey FatBoy..

Hey FatBoy..

I'm glad the MB2 is working out for you.

I have been making Budder, Oil and Alcohol Extracts. (High Test)

I am planning on getting some capsules soon. :rtfo:
 
I bough one of the first units when they were initially released and I still have it and love it for small batches of butter . To be honest though I only use moist weed with this unit due to the fine grinding chopping action that it produces and I always add water to the fill line for maximum extraction of the finished product , rarely do I loose but an oz at max of butter when following this procedure .

Fair warning though - do not fill past the fill line , the sensor will read this and the machine will error . This frustrated me for a while until I accepted that the small unit I bought was intended for personal use . I am a caregiver and often I make 5-10 pounds of butter or 2-4 when making black out butter . I barely am able to get 4 ounces of bud and a pound of butter along with enough water in this machine so when making black out butter I tend to only make a half pound with the machine .

Might as well note that the mushroom cooking feature and milkshake setting is pretty cool too . Magic butter rocks but I dont blame people for sticking to the old tried n true crockpot or stove due to the excessive price on this unit . I purchased mine at wholesale while managing a grow store and I doubt I would have paid the full price no matter how convenient it is .. Another bonus , this unit looks good left on the counter with other kitchen appliances .
 
I forgot to note : Always bake your medibles at 300 or just under for the maximum effect . I learned this little trick from Greywolf (Joe) over at the SkunkPharm.

you jinxed me! :)

in 8 months or so i never had a capsule melt. the temps in my home haven't been lower in months, and all of a sudden, i have 10 caps that are wet. some leaked almost all of the oil out. as you said, what a mess.

the weird thing is, i kept that plastic bottle of capsules in the same place as i kept 2 other plastic bottles with capsules and they are fine. dry and tight. i keep them in a cupboard and they are never in direct sunshine. the only difference is the ones that melted were in a dark but not completely light proof bottle.

i kept the caps in the same type bottle for months and never had a problem.

i put the soft caps back in the fridge and i'll have to figure out what went wrong. same capsules, same oil, it's weird.

good thing i have a bunch more capsules.



edit: it's the next day. i put some of the caps that were in the fridge into the same type bottle as the other caps and put it out. they have started to get wet and one leaked a tiny bit. this is so odd. the only difference in these caps and all the others is the genetic.

the coconut oil was a few months older but it looked and smelled fine. same amount of lecthin.

i am really confused. why would these caps melt and the caps right next to them not? i'm stumped.

i'll have to remember to take them out of the fridge the night before. these things will not travel well at all.

I just got the MB2 machine last week...my first try at butter was 10 grams of dry ice kief to a pound of butter..the kief was from jamican dream sorta racey when smoked but mellows to a good stoney buzz after...

any ways made the butter strained it..cooled it down in the fridge...next day made some brownies...used a stick to make 16 brownies..waited till next day to try them sonce had friends coming over...started off eating 1/4 brownie at first..then an hour ate another 1/4...well the first 1/4 would of surficed...we got amped up at first...then flat lined to a great stoned effect...was good...the machine works well....lol..my buddy called me 6 hours later and wanted to know when the high ends..haha..I said you were my test victims and myself..so i have no idea how long but should be soon....
 
I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on a Magical Butter machine! I live in a place where I can't get away with too much of cooking odours from cannabis, so I'm thinking MB would help with keeping the smell to a reasonable level.

Now I've been limited to cooking with AVB, which doesn't smell that much.

The European version of MB2 has been out of stock for months, I'm hoping they get more soon!

half the fun is seeing how it hit your mates lol.

That's most the fun for me, I enjoy edible and use them semi often. But watching things that happen to other people is defiantly my favorite part. I only have a handful of my regular friends who will still eat them from me, haha. People see me eat multiple doses, then no matter how many times you warn them not to quickly follow suit. Ego thing maybe? No one reacts the same to them so be warned no such thing as a "safe"dose lol
 
interesting, i saw the butter machine in High Times...I use the double boiler method and have never decarbed while making butter. Seems like a cool toy

This machine will not help with the smell. Mostly because the part that smells is decarbing. When you cook it for 15m @ 300f you convert and active the thc and it will likely smoke a little..

This machine is nice because it will make you a good product with proper temp controls.

What it wont do is strain itself. It also is useless for making large batches.

If you are worried about burning, or need a more accurate way of baking/cooking use coconut oil. You don't lose as much in the process, it takes soy lecithin very well, there is no milk or milk fats, not all that expensive, 50$ for a 8kg bucket(~3$/lb) and it stores very well. If you measure in grams instead of cups it ends up working out pretty well. Plus no worries about burning it.
