Burro - la base per molte preparazioni culinarie

esistono un sacco di ricette già scritte e riscritte per quanto riguarda il burro a base di ganja, oggi pomeriggio ne stavo facendo un po' per andare questa sera a vedere star wars al cinema con mio fratello... così ho pensato di
scattare due foto e condividere con voi questa goduria...







questi sono gli ingredienti per due:

un bel joint pescato dalla scatola del trim da 0,3 g
una bella noce di burro da 8 g
un pochino d'acqua

bisogna semplicemente scaldare a bagnomaria per mezzora, poi filtrare (ma anche no...)

-----------------------segue

dopodichè raffreddare e scolare dall'acqua, che non ci interessa











è importante consumare il burro entro 3 giorni...
per assumerlo scegliete voi... io personalmente vado al pub, prendo birra e panino e lo schiaffo dentro al panino

ciao ciao!

ecco infine il burro asciugato e freddo di frigo...!
se siete fumatori abituati a grandi sessioni non rimarrete impressionati dall'effetto, ma rimane comunque un ottimo "in più" nella giornata

... forse perchè manca in buona parte la decarbosillazione?

eh si, il bagnomaria non scalda abbastanza, se prima scaldi in forno il trim per qualche minuto dà nettamente di più
comunque devo dire che siamo rimasti belli capottati per diverso tempo

Ahahahah sei rimasto cappottato allora! il burro è potentissimo, io lo faccio direttamente bollire nell'acqua della pentola, non a bagnomaria, così rimane più attivo, è il metodo nepalese
Poi faccio raffreddare e quando si solidifica lo separo dall' acqua.
Se ti piace cappottare, questo è un bel cappotto caldo per le fredde notti d'inverno

eh si eh si, niente male! poi se si assume da lucidi e senza fumarci sopra si può apprezzare per bene l'effetto!
far bollire l'erba però non basta per far avvenire la decarbossilizzazione del principio attivo... ci vogliono almeno tra i 150° e i 170°, prova la prossima volta a mettere in forno a 160° per 5 minuti... ottimo ottimo
anche il sapore non è male, sulla carne lo trovo ottimo, a volte lo metto in una brioches, ma lo preferisco sul salato

ops non 5 minuti, fai una quarantina

sono interessato ma non mi sono chiari dei passaggi.

prendo uno 0,3 di weedda e lo metto in forno (per quanto tempo? 5 o 40 min?) a 150/170 gradi (ma non si brucia?)
poi metto l'erba ottenuta con circa 8 g di burro ed un pochino d'acqua sul fuoco (o anche a bagnomaria ma pare che sia meglio sul fuoco).
poi raccolgo burro e maria (che immagino leghino), oppure faccio evaporare tutta l'acqua e lascio raffreddare.
raccolgo e spalmo

potete chiarirmi i dubbi di cui sopra??, così preparo qualche antipastino a sorpresa per gli amanti....

ciao odredder!
questo è quello che faccio:
metto uno 0,3 bello sminuzzato nel forno a 160°C per 40 minuti (5 credo siano pochi), poi lo unisco al burro e un pochino d'acqua e faccio sciogliere tutto insieme mescolando.
dopodichè metto a raffreddare ed è fatta!

credo comunque in questo forum ci siano persone in grado di definire meglio di me e di dare delucidazioni a riguardo molto più complete, io ho studiato lettere quindi non sono la persona più indicata, ma mio fratello è biologo e mi ha sempre sottolineato l'importanza della decarbossilazione per poter assimilare la molecola...

Provo come dici te, cavolo l'hai provato!
Al più ho male investito un personal.....cioè lo provo con uno 0,5!!!

Poi aggiorno

Presumo esistamo mille metodi però pare che quello più utilizzato (per burro alimentare) sia questo:

metti il burro che vuoi "personalizzare" direttamente in una pentola con dell'acqua con la cannabis tritata e fai cuocere per circa un'ora dopodichè, visto che il burro sciolto "galleggia", elimini parte dell'acqua sottostante. Fai raffreddare e poi metti in frigorifero e dopo qualche ora il burro si sara "rappreso" e puoi "recuperarlo" tranquillamente.

Io essendo vegano utilizzo lo stesso metodo ma utilizzando olio d'oliva. Per dividerlo dall'acqua (della bollitura) a fine processo metto in freezer per poter far "solidificare" l'olio.

Si, come detto sopra!
Evito la fase forno allora!

ciao ragazzi, in questi due link potete trovare (spero giuste) informazioni a riguardo:

https://www.***************.nl/foru...ossilazione-trasformare-thca-thc-vt21615.html

a me sono stati parecchio utili, se qualcuno ha qualche consiglio si faccia avanti

ahimè il secondo link non è pubblicabile...
copio e incollo quello che c'è su quel sito:

The other day I was asked by an acquaintance why the tincture they were making had very little, if any, noticeable medicinal or psychoactive effect. They swore they followed the same process found in a book on making edibles and soaked the cannabis in high proof for weeks but the tincture just didn’t work.
The answer was simple but one that many in the cannabis industry don’t understand. One very important and necessary extra step had been overlooked. Cannabis used to make tinctures as well as other edible cannabis products requires decarboxylation. From asking around I have a feeling a lot of you just blurted out “Say What?”
So here is the deal. THCA (Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid) is found in abundance in growing and harvested cannabis and is a biosynthetic precursor of THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol). Wow, this sounds scary like organic chemistry, doesn’t it? It is, so for both of our benefits, I’ll give you the dumbed down version.
Research suggests THCA has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects but does not produce the psychoactive effect that make you feel “high”. This “high” is from the cannabinoid THC, of which little if any is found when cannabis is growing or recently harvested.
Decarboxylation is a chemical reaction that releases carbon dioxide (CO2). This means a chemical reaction takes place in which carboxylic acids loose a carbon atom from a carbon chain. This process converts THCA to THC, the much loved compound with many medicinal and psychoactive effects. When the cannabis drys, it very very slowly begins to decarboxylate and converts THCA to THC.
The good news is we don’t have to wait years for cannabis to decarboxylate. We can speed things along with a process that is a lot simpler than you might expect. Simply heating dried cannabis to the correct temperature for enough time releases that carbon dioxide and creates THC. Why have so many of you never heard of this before? Decarboxylating takes place without extra effort when cannabis is heated during the act of smoking or vaporizing. It also takes place to some degree when cannabis is cooked into butter or when hash and kief are added to a favorite recipe and then cooked in the oven.
When making tinctures, cannabis is not heated or baked, it is simply soaked in high proof alcohol. Decarboxylation never takes place and you end up with a product with a lot of THCA and very little THC. This may be a good for some symptoms but will not produce the results most expect.
Setting Up The Experiment

After explaining decarboxylation it became clear why the tincture was ineffective. Naturally they wanted to know how to decarboxylate cannabis quickly and easily so they could get on with making their tincture. I knew how to do it, but I really needed to nerd out for a bit so I could give them the best possible answer.
It really is as easy as heating the cannabis, but for how long and at what temperature? If the cannabis is heated to much, we run the risk of vaporizing and losing some of the important cannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids which have medicinal properties. At the same time we want remove the CO2 as quickly and effectively as possible.
According to a report published by John M. McPartland and Ethan B. Russo “Cannabis and Cannabis Extracts: Greater Than the Sum of Their Parts?”, the boiling points, and hence vapor point of the major cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids range from 246.2° and 435.2° Fahrenheit. I have included a substantial list taken from this report in the appendix of this article. This indicates that by staying under 246.2° Fahrenheit there should be little if any inadvertent vaporization of plant compounds that might produce medicinal benefits. I do need to qualify the above statement by saying that some terpenes actually evaporate to some degree while the plant is growing and there is not much that can be done about it.
I decided to conduct a bit of an experiment to see if my hypothesis was correct. I had some extra kief and trim that I had been keeping in storage for a rainy day. They would work perfect for the experiment and there would be no great loss if things didn’t go as planned.
Easy Steps to Decarboxylation

Consumer grade ovens are not always exact so I decided to shoot for a decarboxylation temperature of around 240° Fahrenheit. This should produce quick results without losing any medicinal potency. 30 minutes seemed like a nice round number for a first test and should give the kief and trim plenty of time to come up to temperature.
Kief has a tendency to ball up in the bag which could lead to uneven temperatures and possibly uneven decarboxylation. Before I put it in the oven, I loosened up the clumps with a fork. While most of the trim was already fairly broken up from its time in the kief tumbler, there were still some budlets in the trim that I wanted to break apart.
A few minutes in the Cuisinart works great for breaking up trim and also works well on buds if you have a bunch of joints to roll. The static from the plastic separated out some low grade kief which loosely clung to the lid of the Cuisinart. I brushed this back into the trim.
I placed a pizza stone on the middle rack of the oven and set the oven dial to bake at as close to 240° Fahrenheit as possible. Ovens lose a lot of heat when the door is opened and sometimes the temperature spikes with little explanation. The pizza stone absorbs the heat and helps maintain a constant temperature. In order to track my temperature accurately I used a thermometer with a heat resistant cord. I placed the thermometer on the pizza stone and the digital readout on the counter next to the oven where it could be monitored.
Once the temperature reached about 240° and did not appear to be increasing I placed a small Pyrex bowl of kief and another of the trim on the pizza stone. I set my timer for 30 minutes and continued to monitor the temperature. A Pyrex lasagna dish would be perfect for larger quantities. As expected, the temperature fell a few degrees from opening the door and then came back up to temperature. Throughout the half hour the temperature rose and fell several times for no apparent reason but stayed between 229° and 245° Fahrenheit.
After 30 minutes I removed both Pyrex containers with an oven mit and placed them on the counter to cool. Both the kief and the trim had noticeably fluffed up and gave off a slightly roasted scent. I took a few grams of each and packaged them for lab testing.
I returned the Pyrex dishes to the oven and set the timer for another half hour. I was pretty sure that 30 minutes had been enough to mostly decarboxylate the kief and trim, but just in case I wanted a backup test at a full hour. Either way I had to be patient and wait a few days for the test results to come back.
Results of Decarboxylation Experiment

The following charts show the results of the 30 minute and 60 minute decarboxylation experiments. Also included are the lab results from testing done prior to any artificial decarboxylation to establish a starting point. Note that because of the age of both the kief and the trim, decarboxylation had begun to take place to some degree naturally. This may not be your starting point, but should not affect the results of the experiment much.
Kief

Compound Before Decarb 30 Min Decarb 60 Min Decarb THCA 24.5% 2.6% .1% THC 3.8% 25.4% 25.5% CBDA .6% .3% .3% CBD 0% 1% .1% CBN .4% 1% 1.4% Moisture 0% 0% 0% Total Cannabanoids 29.3% 30.3% 27.4%
Cannabis Trim

Compound Before Decarb 30 Min Decarb 60 Min Decarb THCA 6.5% 2.9% .2% THC .6% 4.8% 6.9% CBDA .2% .2% .1% CBD 0% 0% .1% CBN 0% 0% 0% Moisture 3.4% 4.5% 0% Total Cannabanoids 7.3% 7.9% 7.3%
Testing provided by SC Labs
As you can see from the two charts, 30 minutes was not quite enough to completely decarboxylate either the kief or the trim. At 30 minutes the kief was about 90% decarboxylated but the trim was only about 60% decarboxylated. This difference is likely because the trim had a higher starting moisture content. After 60 minutes however, both keif and trim samples were close enough to 100% decarboxylation for my satisfaction.
So there you have it. 240° F for 60 minutes should be enough to decarboxylate any cannabis with a reasonably low moisture content. For material with higher moisture content, the time can be extended but the temperature should not be increased. If you are concerned about losing organic compounds, lower heat can be used but the time should be extended to compensate.
Interesting Findings

As with most experiments, the results often lead to new questions. Here are a few unexpected finding that may lead to future experiments.
The kief and trim both appear to have lost some total cannabinoids after the second 30 minutes in the oven. Some of you might suggest this is from vaporization from being at temperature for too long. This could be true, thought they were from the same plant they were not the exact same samples. Additionally lab tests do have a margin of error, so I’m not sure that is a safe assumption. This would need to be tested with more samples to have a solid verdict.
For some reason the moisture content of the trim tested higher after the first 30 minutes in the oven. I have no idea why this would be. It could just be a fluke.
Tbe CBDA did not appear to convert to CBD during the decarboxylation of the THCA. Some further research might shed some light on this.

round 2

round 2

ricordando la chiusura de "il canapaio" del grande franco casalone, ovvero che la pratica conta più della grammatica, riprovo da zero cercando di rendere il più possibile attivo il burro ottenuto...
a differenza del primo tentativo (che comunque si è fatto sentire dignitosamente), questa volta metterò il trim nel forno a 160° per 40 minuti prima di scioglierlo nel burro

domani farò l'assaggio... oggi ho già fumato troppo per dare un giudizio "scientifico"

buon natale a tutti!!

ha dato ha dato...!

Anche a me ha funzionato!

La prossima volta , faccio previo passaggio in forno

40 minuti sono fin troppi, ti consiglierei di provare con 30!
questa mattina mi sono divertito un sacco sono stato in giro 3 ore e sono volate!!

ok, alloro provo a cuocerlo in forno per una 30ina di minuti...stasera ci provo!
la mangiata è meno sospetta della fumata (anche se qualche rutto alla maria l'ho fatto!!) e dopo l'esperienza fatta...mi sa che tirerò fuori il mio burro in molte occasioni...
