Best decarboxilation unit and infuser?

Hey all,

Going to replace my old ardent device and I noted I didn’t dry my mighty fast properly last time…

Anyone got a good recommendation on a solid decarb unit and or best infuser option? Looking to do 3-5 cups of material at a time.

I am aware of the option to decarb in the oven, but not a fan, looking for near odourless options…:blush:

Friend uses this and really likes it. He’s a cookie baking, butter making guy. I’m guessing there’s a lot of options here so I’m hoping to learn as well.

I do like their decarb unit, the infuser is a bit small. Thanks for the vote.

Depends on the extent of your end game. The Leevo 2 is great for decarb and infusing oils or butter :love_you_gesture:

We generally just decarb and infuse in the oven /stove top no real limit on quantity this way.

I am curious about the instapot method. We don’t have one anymore because I blew it up somehow. Lol still wanna know the process :call_me_hand:t3:

I used to decarb the flower int he oven in a mason jar… no smell until you open the jars but you can open the up outside. Now I decarb after but I use a Source Turbo to extract.

I do the same. Unless I’m doing a dab run I decarb the oil after, now.

Exactly! I’ve even just been decarbing everything afterwards… it’s just easier for me to remember what concentrate has been decarbed or not LOL… I’m getting old and sometime I forget to label stuff :joy_cat: :joy_cat: :joy_cat:

Been working on extraction, filtering and infusion
Got into this because of an in-law with throat cancer
Had to learn quite a few techniques quickly and how to infuse soft foods and was looking to add thc/cbd to the liquid feed paks (enteral feeding)

When we were infusing simple syrup because of liver issues of the person I was working with nano emulsion was a rabbit hole that I went down a little ways but could not devote time

I started researching with this site

Anyone working on nano emulsions, bioavailability and uptake/absorption
Want to step up my oils, syrups and balms

@Puddlehead So, why are you replacing the Ardent?

I have the Levo C and love it. Has a lot bigger capacity than the other Levo’s.

Liquid is 2-6 cups I believe and each pod holds about 1/2oz.

For bigger batches I just toss all material into a big 1 gallon infusing bag, place into the instapot, and cover with coconut oil for 8+ hrs. Can adjust the temp easier under the keep warm setting or the slow cooker setting.

I usually just decarb on a cookie sheet in the oven.

@Caligurl to decarb after infusing do you just heat the oil up to the same normal decarb temp?

Yes, same temp. You’ll want to watch it closely… when it stops bubbling, it’s done.
