just made epic brownies holy shit, so good i made second batch of butter with complete shit scraps

hag a huge tub of mixed trim and fans and old yellow and brown fans, didnt have food prsessor so i used a blender and water to gring up all the trim.
turned on crockpot, added a 4 stick 1 pound of butter it was melting. i blended the leaf upwith as little water as possible to get it to blend, then id jam more leaf in and spin againi did this till crock pot was full to brim,id pour water and leaf in crockpot and repeat till loaded full of trim , the water keeps it from burning, it has no drawbacks as i noticed
cooked on low stirring occasionally for 16 hours.
quick cooled it by letting it sit and seperate for 20 minutes , then in the freezer for about hour and a half, pulled up the chunk of butter and poured off the water,
this stuff was crazy epic potent, i ate a huge hunk of butter before making brownies and i was high as shit before they were ready, they were so potent my lady couldnt even drive her car the next morning, ill never waste shitty fan leaves and scraps again, saving for the butter, maybe i make someones day, i wasnt sure about the blender and water but it worked great , and i didnt need a quisanart

I only use concentrates in my edibles. I melt the concentrate into coconut oil, then put it in my mix. No decarb before hand. Then I bake whatever I made at no more than 200F until fully cooked. All the edibles ive made this way have kept some of the properties of the original concentrate instead of giving the me the generic heavy edible feel.

The way I have done is the easy fast way, first decarb in the oven for 30 min, then coconut oil in a pan for 1h.

Bought a crockpot some weeks ago, so I will definitely try that next time I'm making coconutoil!

I wanna make some butter cookies infused with THC, is there a way to tell exactly how much MGs of THC I have in each serving?

Have your pot tested and start figuring from there.

if the pot is 20% by weight. Then ten grams will equal and 2 grams of THC. That makes 40 edibles with 50mg in them.

anyone else try a long decarb?

If only it were that simple.

First, you won't get 100% extraction efficiency. Second, most labs report the THCA value so you have to multiply by .88 to account for the lost carboxyl group during decarboxylation. A more accurate formula is:

((1000*weight*%THCA)*0.88)*eff iciency.

With your example of 10 grams with 20% THCA and 75% efficiency.

((1000*10 g*0.20)*0.88)*0.75) = 1320 mg or about 33 mg each of your 40 servings.

This doesn't even begin to take into consideration how bioavailable the extract is or how well mixed it is. This is what makes it so hard to calculate and why commercial edible makers use decarbed distillates. This leads to a more consistent product.

As for decarb, 240°F for 50 minutes is my go to temp/time.

Sounds about right ReiKox!

I also decarb @ 240f for 50 minutes

Sounds good to me....

I have one question for you, (daft as it may be) how does one go about melting there concentrate into the coconut oil? i have plenty of bubble lying around, i would normally make butter which turns into a pleasing final product... I like the sounds of melting the bubble in to coconut oil, i might even try this for Easter as i will not be eating chocolate eggs...

If anybody else knows do not be shy and please chime in.....

Just treat the coconut oil like butter, it will work just fine.
