Dank Cannaoil Half Oz Batch

Discussion in 'Weed Edibles' started by 420bunny, Dec 20, 2011.

  1. Making a nice batch of cannabutter tommorow with some dank trainwreck i have. Im going to use a quarter or half and a double boiler.
    How much oil should i put in per a quarter?
    How long do i need to keep it on for?
    How high should the stove be?
     
  2. I suggest using oil, like canola oil or vegetable oil, instead of butter if you plan to store the brownies over any length of time. Oil tends to keep better than butter and (arguably) provides longer moisture content for that yummy texture.

    You are using a double boiler, so use water between the chambers. Water does not exceed its boiling point (100 C, 212 F) and will not risk burning your butter/oil.

    Heat the water to a boil and then drop the heat to the lowest setting. Leave it on simmer. Next, add your oil/butter and cannabis to the inner chamber. Grind your cannabis as finely as you can get it beforehand.

    Use as much oil as the recipe calls for. But half an O will give you a nice kick. The average brownie recipe makes 16 1” square brownies in a 9” pan. Using half an O that works out to 0.875g of cannabis per brownie. If you eat two, that’s 1.75g. You do the rest of the math based on how much you want to eat.

    The length of time varies. I like to go with 4 hours in a double boiler, stirred frequently. (Every 15-20min or so.)

    Note that this process will smell. I suggest you prepare with some air fresheners, open windows, and do it at night if possible. The smell will dissipate over the course of a few hours. Just don’t have any guests over for the next day or so.

    This should get you started... (concentrate on the oil tutorials, but feel free to ignore the edible/food recipes, if you already have one in mind :) )

    (The process above, details the bare minimum required to achieve a strong, and powerful, but still lucid effect-wise, oil... processing longer, will sometimes cause you to have too-good a nights sleep ((meaning you may 'clock out early', before you can fully enjoy the experience!)), but it may also intensify the experience for you, depending on your body and metabolism....

    And whether you're a patient, or a recreational user, experimenting with different oils, and different strains/plants, can help to positively effect your outcome!

    Be sure you read the detailed dosage instructions at the end, to find out how much you should use...)

    If you have to use the stove, use a double boiler... it should keep your oil and canna well below the above recommended 220f, and as such, you will need to add an additional 30 - 60 minutes to compensate.


    Recipes to try...

    (If you don't feel like making your own ice-cream, just use a fork to whisk your oil into warm cream or milk, then stir that into either a bowl, or slightly thawed and partially-depleted container, of your favorite ice-cream)

    (Unless you're already very experienced with hard candy in general, I don't recommend that you try making hard candy with canna oil/butter.. it is tricky, and you could easily waste your oil this way! And again, it's also a good idea to first make hash, then hash oil.. regular canna oil can sometimes be a bit too diluted. If you have access to a high proof grain/drinking alcohol, a hash extract is easy to make.

    If you are compelled to make hard candy: Make a few test-batches without your canna oil, but using the same oil you used to make your canna oil, first.)

    (4 - 6 grams is more than enough oil to make a good Canna Pizza or two ;) This recipe includes home made canna dough, as well!)

    The Truffles and PB Canna BOMBS are great for the holidays, but Holiday Hash or Canna Nog is super easy and even better, if you like 'regular' stuff that is :)

    And just to show you how easy a pizza can be... you just buy your toppings, a bag of cheese, a can of sauce and a dough base, swirl on your canna oil, add your sauce, cheese and toppings, and 13 - 16 minutes at 425 f. later, you've got an awesome stoner-snack!

    **Important**



    Lastly, the oil source you use, directly effects the quality of your resulting edible, and even dictates where and how your potency is absorbed, by your body!


    The best easily-found oils are coconut oil, and clarified butter (which is store-bought butter, that has been heated to evaporate the water content, while you scrape off the milk solids as they appear). These oils are rich in short and medium-chain triglycerides, which are absorbed passively through the portal vein and liver, for further conversion. They also have a high saturated fat content, which is ideal for breaking down cannabinoid glandular material into a bioavailable solution.


    Most common kitchen cooking oils, such as olive, canola, soy, and corn oils, have very little saturated fat, and are comprised mainly if not entirely of long-chain triglycerides, which are absorbed lymphatically, bypassing the liver, preventing much of your potency from being converted to the more-powerful 11-OH-THC. These are oils that most people and patients, should normally avoid.

    Clarified butter is pure milk fat, in other words it is oil, and without the water content and milk proteins/solids that it once contained, it is very shelf-stable and will not easily spoil or go rancid.


    In most cases, bypassing the liver entirely is a bad thing, but it can be beneficial if your liver consistently over-metabolizes (burns off) cannabinoids upon their entry, or if you are a patient with either little, or no appetite, before you medicate (in which case a long-chain containing oil should be used with canna to peak hunger, and medium/short-chain oils should be consumed shortly after a meal).


    Remember, cannabis glandular material is notoriously difficult for the body to digest and absorb all on its own, even after it's been activated, even when it is in the form of a stocky or gooey concentrate. You'll get the most potency, if you put in the effort required to promote a good level of bioavailability.
    Without that effort, much of your valuable potency simply goes 'in one end, and out the other', without absorption. :eek:
    Edible cannabis has the potential to be much more powerful, than smoking the same amount.. but only with the right processing! :smoke:

    Cut corners, and you'll quickly need to begin multiplying the amount you eat, to achieve the desired effect.


    You have loads of options... canna oil and tinctures, are very versatile! It's all in knowing both how, and when to add the oil, in order to blend with the recipe successfully while, just as crucially, avoiding degradation.

    Good luck, and have fun! :wave:
