BadKats CannaPharm: Medical Grade Oil, Cannabis Capsules, UV GLOWING Hash Candy, Canna Bombs more

I can only respond to the first part of your question, but yes strains all have different properties that help in different ways. I stick mainly to indica's and have access to a lot of bubba kush hash. I got lucky since thats exactly what i need for my conditions right now but don't get me wrong, when i feel good and I'm up to it , sativa's are my first choice and oh do i love my hybrids(best of both worlds) Also i have had best success w relieving pain when used in hash/bud caps. Smoking/vaping helps my pain but honestly not in the way the caps do. Lastly I make super weak batches for my gf because shes a light weight. I just use 2 grams of hash to a tbl spoon of mixed oils and comes out to somewhere along the lines of .05-.08g a cap. She can still function perfectly and feels good but not too strong for her to the point where she doesn't want to move. Just an idea.

 

I've been searching for herbs, spices, and plants that might work well with cannabis edibles. Compounds in the spice turmeric like curcumin have been studied for many of the same conditions as cannabis. Therapeutic Roles of Curcumin: Lessons Learned from Clinical Trials

(This is not a recommendation to self-treat any health condition, see a medical professional if you are sick)
Turmeric/Coconut oil/Cannabis capsules
Cannabis 2 g
Coconut Oil 10 g ( about 2 tsp)
Lecithin 3 g
Turmeric 5 g
Rice Flour 5 g (used as a filler, to get 24 servings, can be eliminated for higher potency)
Total weight: 25 g

Using size zero caps this will make about 24-25.

 

I think the thing about turmeric is it is something like 2000 times more effective with freshly ground black pepper. Golden milk is a great way to ingest turmeric.

 

Thanks for mentioning the Golden Milk, had not heard of this drink before. Going to try this with several of my caps blended in.

• 2 cups of milk or coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric
• 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup or to taste
• Pinch of black pepper (increases absorption)
• Tiny piece of fresh, peeled ginger root or ¼ tsp ginger powder
• Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)

1. Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth.
2. Pour into a small sauce pan and heat for 3-5 minutes over medium heat until hot but not boiling.

 

That's a great idea!

 

Any luck???

 

I try to sift through as many pages of threads I can before asking any questions, but this one goes DEEP. Does BadKat or anyone else in here know if its possible to skip the hash powder decarb step, and just let the hash powder decarb during the hash and oil infusion? ..Maybe let it cook a little longer or hotter? I haven't tried it nor do I have an excess of hash to run this type of experiment. Any insight would be appreciated!

 

Decarb really does best in open-air before being immersed in oil.
use a covered-dish a foil pouch or oven cooking bag..
your actual heated oil time can be under 20 minutes

Roach, why reinvent the wheel. The directions in BKS's threads are tried and true. They've already done the experimenting and testing and tell you how to do it. I suggest following the directions. Or do what BNW said.

 

Hey BK, ran into something recently that intrigued me, and I thought I'd ask you if you've seen it before and what your thoughts might be on it. It's a medium-chain triglyceride powder derived from palm oil, and I thought it might be a cool medium for edibles. If you mixed it in some ethanol tincture, possibly adding a little bit of powdered lecithin, it could be reduced to a manageable size, then set in a pan or food dehydrator to finish evaporating off the alcohol, and then put in virtually anything as an easy way to add some edible potency, or even put in caps for quick use. Any thoughts? Would also be a good way to make drinks without having the emulsification problems of using oil.

 

Bad kat can u please link me to your hard candy step by step recipe I can't seem to find it

Glad to hear your doing as well as can be!

 

That's awesome, I had figured as much. Could you share some advice on how to make this powder? I'm assuming since you powder it yourself you infuse an MCT oil first, then add maltodextrin/lecithin to powder the mixture? I guess you vary the concentration of cannabinoids in the oil, but what are the ratios of powdering agent to oil that you use? And you mentioned spray powdering, how does that work?

I'm also curious about how you make slow-release and rapid-release, do you simply add more lecithin for a longer release time, and negate it for rapid-release?

 

Woah this is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing. I'm curious as to how you made the prosciutto cheese log. Did you blend the concentrate into the cheese?

 

I've been looking for the canna oil recipe (not hash. I'm starting with bud/trim) I know it's similar to the hash oil recipe but I think the cook time differ? Can someone point me in the direction of the canna oil one?

 

SMGN
Same recipe..
Decarb material = 240 degrees F for 40-60 min
5 grams hash or powdered bud ( you can use as much bud as will blend with your oil )
2.5 teaspoons coconut oil
1/2 teaspoon soy lecithin
Blend and heat 220 degrees F for 20 minutes then freeze.. 2-3-4 more heat and freezes change to smoother texture and a better sleep aid.
For ground- powdered bud it just won't be as potent.. It works out to just enough oil to work the material into a sludge when warm..

Not sure if you can see the recipe card in this pic. It says 7 grams or herb or 3 grams of hash and 1/4-1/2 cup of oil

 

Taken off the first page.. She gets in the lecithin in 2 different sections and uses about 1/4 teaspoon of powder.. The liquid is not as strong so I use twice as much..
=========================================


What you'll need:

- Minimum 5.0 grams sifted hash, or fine kief. We're using hash collected from the strain

“Devastating Train Wreck”.

- Coconut Oil, 2.5 tsp- organic and mechanically extracted are good, naturally

heat-deodorized is ok. I recommend the brands 'Now', and 'Garden of Life'.

(Remember, if a single dose turns out much too strong for you, you can dilute it
further with extra coconut oil until you achieve the desired effect. There is no rush
so feel free to fill one capsule, try it before filling the rest, and see if changes are
needed. These start out strong. Some of you will require less product per-cap.)

- Pipette to fill your caps easily by hand, or of course a fancy cap-filling machine or tray.

- Empty Gelatin Capsules Can't be veg/V-caps unless you intend on using them immediately

- Optional oils, which as a patient with digestive-absorptive difficulties, I use for enhanced

mobility and absorption of cannabinoids.. a mix of heavier to lighter oils will create an

optimal and varied 'vehicle' for cannabinoids, cbd etc., however this is the perfectionist in

me, and a single, quality coconut oil source will do just fine for most folks. I use:

- Avocado - Almond - and -Castor- oils, in addition to the coconut, at an
unmeasured rate of just a few drops each, per 2 teaspoons of coconut oil.

Just be sure they are food grade.

If you are uncertain, contact the supplier or manufacturer, or discontinue use.


- Soy Lecithin: this is where the first two recipes differ.


I made two near-exact batches to show the results side by side, one with lecithin, one

without. It's cheap, easy to find, and it absolutely enhances the effects and absorption

of cannabinoids. Further explanation below.

- Ceramic oven-safe dish

- Foil

- Empty Pill Bottles

- Desiccant sachet

- size 00 GELATIN capsules.. they must be gelatin, if you use vegetarian,

they'll disintegrate before you can use them.

But if you must use V caps, you'll have to take them almost immediately, and I'd

recommend making your hash concentrate in advance, freezing it, and defrosting what

you need, as you need it, just enough to fill a days supply of caps.

You can use larger capsules, and fill them with different ratios, but only if you can handle

swallowing pills that large; many folks have difficulties with even the 00's, although they're

your average health-food sized cap.

Preface.
Coconut oil is a solid at temperatures below around 76-78 degrees, making it perfect for

canna capsules. When blended properly, the cannabinoids are mixed evenly through the

oil and become unable to 'eat' through the gel cap, and due to the solidity of the oil they

can be stored safely for up to several weeks at room temp. I prefer freezing mine as it

not only greatly extends their shelf life, but there are many studies and recipes that

suggest a freezing action, as a step of the process, as it enhances the molecular

break-down of the cannabinoids making them more readily available to your body.


Soy Lecithin. It's used in food processing to make less sugar appear 'sweeter', less

chocolate more 'chocolatey', and in pharmaceuticals to enhance the effectiveness of

medications, it homogenizes and safely coats, then breaks down substances, into more

fine, smaller particulates, promoting vastly improved systemic bioavailability within your

body.
========================
I'd use 1/4 -1/2 cup of oil in a brownie recipe but that's far to much for making caps IMO.. I like as much hash and as little oil as I need to make a workable sludge when hot.. Cool-Cold it won't even suck up the eye dropper..
She makes 15 size (00) caps with that 5 grams x 2.5 teaspoon ratio..
Further in she does cover working with bud at about double the amount..
7 grams powdered bud
2.5 teaspoons oil
.5 teaspoon lecithin..
My first few batches were bud based but I quickly shook out more dry ice hash and one thing let to another..

I have some product that has become extremely dry. When I tried to make hash there was just to much plant material break down. I have decarbed it and its in the freezer.
1. Would I be best to first do an alcohol extraction or go straight to oil?
2. I have a large quantity of lard from pastured lard. Have you use this for extractions Kat and what are your thoughts on this?
Thanks your methods are tremendous and have helped my pain so much. Thanks
