Gonna be some potent stuff
What is that stuff?
Infused Coconut Oil for making edibles and gummies
You know how to make gummies?
I’m going to make the ones that use gelatin and jelo mix this week. Going to make a stronger batch of oil for those.
Is it easy?
Looks super easy actually
If it works out for you you’ll show me how to do it?
Certainly!
How do you differentiate between what milligrams the gummies will be?
Funny you should ask…. There are calculators online for one. But I took the calculations and put them into excel to make a chart so I have an idea. At the end it’s like horseshoes and hand grenades though. There are a lot of unknowns.
Example - the THC of your plant, the THC of the trim, the efficiency after decarboxylation, the extraction efficiency….
I’m still figuring it out myself. Then, having a guinea pig…. A test subject.
So the bigger smile on their face means more milligrams
There’s a lot of people that I know that buy them from the dispensaries and pay good money. But milligrams is important to them. I’m not sending my weed out for testing
If you get really high off of one then I would just call it the higher milligram shit
I don’t know there’s a definitive way to calculate with any accuracy.
I’m taking the calculation, using the decarb efficiency factor, extraction factor, the thc % from the strain.
My trim is actually a combination or trim and popcorn buds (mixture of 4 plants). The thc levels of the strains are 17%, 23%, 26%, 30%. (Average of 24%). If I take 50-60% of that im right around 15% THC. So I think using the 15% level seems correct, it can be a little lower.
So, I used 7g to 1c of oil, the calculation at 15% THC says I should have around 504mg of thc total per cup (8oz). If the recipient calls for 2/3c, I know I have about 333mg (504*0.66) / the number of servings. Say, I cut it into 18 servings then that would be about 18.5mg thc per brownie.
And, for gummies the recipes call for much less oil, like 1/4c - so I need to make a stronger oil - like 20g to 1c.
It definitely sounds like you know what you’re doing. I really want to try the gummies. A lot of old farts like me can’t smoke weed because we choke, cough, and shit our pants
OMG, so I decarbed the 6oz at my neighbors house (wife wouldn’t let me do it in mine). 3 trays in two ovens…. Jesus, it was like being at a Wu-Tang concert.
Anyway, I will infuse stronger oil this week and the. Make a batch of gummies. I already have a guinea pig to try it. We’ll see….
I got about 6 oz I can play with of Do-si-dos.
I don’t smoke either, I like the gummies cos I can cut pieces off for the right dose I want. Smoking kills my lungs, need them fresh and healthy for free diving lol.
