    Hello blades, I have a few questions regarding abv or decarbing weed via a vaporizer. I have a vape pen that doesn't really combust at all, the metal chamber gets hot enough to burn you instantly on contact with your skin. I would also just cover the mouth piece to where no vapor is coming out. My questions is how much "abv" would I need to have a decent dose? I can get any color between green and brown, how would I know when it's decarbed correctly? Sorry for the long thread. Cheers!

  2. Too many variables. 
     
    Save up 10 grams of vaped bud and make a tray of brownies....go from there.
     
  3. like a single dose in a fire cracker or in hot coco? probably 1/2 gram to a full gram. problem is firecrackers can take a supper long time to hit. like 2 or more hours.
     
    quick and dirty edibles:
    hot coco- just dump 3/4 of a gram of AVB  in 8 ounces {1 cup} of whole milk with a few tables spoons of 1/2 n 1/2 or heavy whipping cream. heat over medium heat {a 4 or 5 on the stove top} for 5 mins or so. add chocolate syrup to taste. that is the quick and dirty recipe that hits you fully in about an hour on an empty stomach to a mostly empty stomach.
     
    also make sure you crush the AVB between two spoons to get it as fine as possible and then dump directly into milk. i take a larger spoon {table spoon} and dump some of the AVB i am using on it. then i take a smaller spoon {tea spoon} and mash / grind up the bud into a finer consistency. {like a mortar and pestle in a way} it will kind of dissolve into the milk as it heats through to steamy hot. that too is the key, you need to make sure the milk gets steamy hot but doesn't scorch so stir well and stir often using the spoons you ground the bud up with. you do want to get every bit of the good stuff that you can into the coco or edibles you are making right?.
     
    as far as dosing goes, pretty much a half gram to a full gram of AVB to a person. that too depends on how good the bud was prior to vaping it and also the persons tolerance to ganja. it also depends on the edible you are making. and again depends on how you are processing the AVB before you use it. like in butter or oil. there are a lot of variables to it all. you just got to get out there and start experimenting. but remember one final thing, don't make them to strong.
     
    sure, sure, sounds like a roaring good time with everyone mega baked. but it isn't. as a matter of fact getting to fucked up on edibles sucks many bags of dicks and will have you feeling the worst you have ever felt in your entire life. seriously man, it can make you feel horribly ill for days. high too, but it is completely ruined and overshadowed by how how absolutely miserable you feel. so .5 gram per dose per person is a good starting place. that will have everyone pretty fucking high. like really high actually. edibles rock, good luck and have a great time [​IMG]

    ^Perfectly said. Ajroxit must be a scatologist, because he certainly seems to know his shit.
     
  5. For my tolerance... I take 4g of ABV, grind it to a powder in my coffee grinder, and add it to a box of brownie mix to make 12-16 brownies.
     
    I am a little confused about what kind of vaporizer you have, and whether or not you are actually using the vaporizer to inhale vapors and get high? (or are you just using it as an "oven" to toast your herb?) When most people talk about "ABV" they mean Already Been Vaped herb that they have already enjoyed once in their vaporizer. So eating ABV edibles is kind of like reclaiming a waste product, the stuff that would go in the ash tray if you were smoking, and getting a second high for "free." 
     
    If on the other hand you aren't really into vaping, and just want to make potent edibles, then skip the vape/ABV step entirely and simply follow a good recipe for MJ edibles. 
     
  6. Thank you for your detailed response, I will try the hot coco this morning! Cheers

  7. Yeah I was going to use it as an oven, I can't seem to get the herb to turn to vapor in the pen, it just gets ungodly hot. Thank you for response I'd love to cut to the chase and use the oven for everything but alas roomates don't approve the house being stanky , cheers!

  8. I had figured it would take less because in all reality I'm not really making abv because I'm not inhaling and vapor it's just marinating if you will inside the chamber with the herb, i will experiment this morning, thank you for the responses!
    Also what color should my herbs be! Thank you

    I doubt you can use a cheap broken vaporizer as a "kitchen" to make consistently high-quality edibles. But give it a try, let us know how it turns out. [​IMG]
     
  10. Oh yeah I'm not trying to start a bakery trust me, just trying my hands at eddibles, over the past 7 years of smoking I have yet to live where i can bake. Gotta love roomates. Cheers!

  11. Asked roomate to decarb with oven, was a sucess, have weed in glass bowl covered at 225, going for a 20 min decarb being as it was a bit dry going in. Cheers!

    Well 2 hours later not much of a feeling, method of consumption was with pb close to one gram ate, also ate some pizza/wings to add more fat in my stomach.i just smoked a decent sized bowl and feeling pretty decent. Is it possible to "kick start" an edible buzz by smoking a little bit? It seems as if I'm more high than I'd normally be after one. Just some thoughts thanks guys!

  13. I get the vaped cannabis put it in "00" capsules and take 2 or 3. You will be medicated for up to 4 or 5 hours.
     
  14. I've taken up to almost 15 abv canna caps before with no results so I'm pretty sure I'm immune to them. But could it be the type of capsules I'm using? They are gelatin caps
     
  15. You should mix it with fat. Eating it straight is kinda wasteful because almost none of the thc gets absorbed into your system without fat to help it
     
  16. I know I take them without fat and About an hour and a half later I can feel the effects.
