I’ll get it from my wife when she gets home.It seems to work on muscles,she uses them when her auto immune pain and sorness kick in.She swears it helps,but there’s other stuff in it too.I’m sure the THC helps,and it doesn’t get into your blood just soaking in it.

First, I always end up with a product that feels slightly moist also. I use a coffee grinder to grind my weed into a near powder and then decarb it. I put those up in capsules, and the capsules are potent so I know the decarb is successful. I did toy with the idea of running it on the 266F for 35 minute setting, but have never done it because no arguing with success.
It even leaves weed that is below recommended storage RH moistish. I do like to start with it on the dry side, because once I put in weed that was at 62% and it popped the silicone lid inside, and there was condensation on the top of that.
I love the machine, I can’t imagine trying to manage an ounce or more in the oven, I’d burn it for sure.

I’ve always wanted to try weed in capsules. How many caps do you use as a “dose”? Thanks.

Lol, I gotta read more first
Depends on size of capsule’s and strength of buds and how much buds you use, which begs the question as to how many mg are of thc per dose is appropriate.
I usually shoot for 15mg per ml. And a size 00 cap holps almost 1 ml (actually .93, IIRC). Depending on how high I want to be, I’ve taken up to 6 caps. But I do have quite a tolerance, so start with 1, add as needed.
And this is infused into oil.
It does depend but since I’m not doing this scientifically (shame on me!) I judge by effect. I use size 0 capsules, right now I’m using Space Queen weed in them. The time before this, I got 120 capsules out of approx. one oz, this time, I got 96. I had ground the weed more finely this time. Husband had been taking two (to help him sleep), now he’s back to one.
Best to test them when you’ve got nothing going on.
For me, if I take one, in about an hour I smoke a bowl which helps to get me where I want to be.

Welcome to the caveman club. We can get high and paint the walls together. Did you see that Mammoth beat down that sabertooth? I lost 10 pounds of sloth meat betting on him. Bonus is wife skinned his but and making a coat for me.

You’re very welcome!
Now once the decarb is done, then you add the butter. Once that is done do you strain it through cheese cloth into a butter mold? Just curious. I ordered one myself and it’s supposed to be here Sunday and I’d like to jump right in to it.

I did make butter once in there but what I did was put the ground up weed into the cheesecloth and tie it into a packet and put that in with the butter. That way there was very little plant matter in the butter and it was easier to deal with.
I typically just capsule up the dried weed.

I can’t find the recipe yet,but any homemade lotion recipe will work. Just find one you like and add the THC from your concoction.I use VG PG as a base and usually these recipes contain shea butter,beeswax,etc.and you can add essential oils,fragrance to suit your taste.I also make a bath oil out of just PG VG and sugar leaf.Works wonders on sore muscles and joints.

Just made my 1st batch of butter. Used 15 grams of some ok flower(4-5 hits before you feel the effects ) and 15 grams of really good flowers (1-2 hits and you feel the “face drop”) to 1lb of butter. Plan to make some brownies this weekend. I’ll let you know how they hit.
