Coconut oil X2

Discussion in 'Weed Edibles' started by Shoes, Oct 21, 2014.

  1. Made coconut oil caps thanks to yalls advise & threads. First attempt was ok. Second attempt was ... meh. I used a bunch more flower on my third try and holy balls the caps are strong! So I'm planning next batch & had a ? Can I take my AVB and make oil, then use that same oil to make my next batch with fresh new flower? So basically run the oil twice. Once w AVB and then again w fresh flower

  2. Why twice? Grind and decarb the flower, mix it with AVB and make oil once.
     
  3. I don't want to make too much oil. So I wanted to extract all the leftover goodies from the AVB, then use that same oil to extract the fresh flower. I guess I could just double up on the oil and do it all at once. I just wanted the caps more potent w out using double the oil.

  4. The oil does not cover all the flower. So I wanted to extract from 1/2 the flower then strain the oil, then re run the oil with the NEXT batch of flower. Don't know how one can cover 1.5 oz of bud w 1 tablespoon of oil :/

  5. You can extract the THC with Everclear. Then transfer that to the oil.

  6. I think you'll be fine doing it twice so long as you keep the temp low. What'd you end up doing? How'd it turn out?
     
  7. I took an empty pill bottle (the size of a roll if quarters) filled w ground flower

  8. I took an empty pill bottle ( the size of a roll of quarters) and filled it w ground up flower. Decarbed it then put it in a glass pan w the ground bud. It took like 2 tablespoons of coconut oil to cover it. Heated it and stirred it for 1 hour. Froze it over night and reheated it for another hour. Froze it AGAIN then reheated it. After this reheat, I strained it and capped them all. Did NOT re run the oil. Maybe I'll try that at a later date. Caps are pretty good. I've never been able to achieve the 'Black' look to my oil. The oil gets a golden/mid tan tint, but never that dark black that I see on here. I use the soy lecithin, and the caps ARE potent, but my final result doesn't have that dark look
