How to Infuse Honey

Discussion in 'Weed Edibles' started by Bert56, Oct 20, 2023.

  1. Hi! I would like to infuse honey for sing concentrates. I’ve read two approaches: one camp says you have to have fat or something for the THC to bond with. So they say to use butter. Now you have honey butter; not honey. The other camp doesn’t use a bonding aid; they just go straight concentrate to honey infusion. Your thoughts??? Anyone infused honey before? What were your results?
     
  2. You can use a tincture reduction or concentrates from the dispensary
    Make sure to decarb your material before infusion
    Simply warm your concentrate and the honey a little and mix
    It requires a bit of gentle mixing to get decent dispersion
    Some folks reported separation over time but you can put the container in some warm water and mix it again

    Did the above method as well as the whipped honey method
    Used an electric milk frother, small handheld model
    Had good results but I moved on to infused simple syrup and oil

    Butter can go rancid, consider coconut oil
    many non organic honey makers use oil to keep the honey 'wet' even fluid
    only in the US have I seen honey in a liquid form, elsewhere its always hard like butter

    cheers

  4. Vee,
    Crystallization occurs because of the natural qualities inside. The natural sugars in honey (glucose and fructose) will bind together and begin to form little crystals, which can start making your honey harder. With differing blends, some honey will begin to crystallize faster than others.

    We harvested this RAW honey this year in the US.

    (Pasteurized honey) has been exposed to high heat while being processed. During the heating process, the yeast that is naturally present in honey will be destroyed, giving it a smoother texture. Unfortunately the high heat also destroys most of the honeys nutritional properties.
