    [quote name="mrsilly" post="19434757" timestamp="1391091200"]Just curious why don't you just decarb your material before you blast. Seems like a lot of work?If you don't make your on BHO how do you know if the mystery oil is purged and your not eating nastiesIf you are making your own are you using n-butane? When you put your bho inside the pressure cooker what kind of container do you put it in. Is there water inside the presure cooker?how do you keep the water out of BHO?Next time you do this could you add a pictorial/tutorial?Please do not misunderstand, I am in no way being disrespectful, I am consistently looking for better way to do things, inquiring minds want to know.[/quote]I decarb the extract because when we would blast it would be 20+ pounds of sweet leaf, it's a lot easier to decarb 2 pounds of oil over 20# of plant material.I put the extracts into a shallow Pyrex container with no lid inside the pressure cooker. Never used water water and BHO hate each other. I ordered ~100# tanks of instrument grade butane from AirGas. I will post a step by step next time I blast unfortunately I no longer work for this company (owners screwed me out of 75k) so I won't be able to show a 20# blast. But I can show a small scale with my grow.As far as purging its highly over rated we never "purged" in the traditional since, I always put the liquid BHO on a tray of hot water and kept replacing the water as it would cool until it was thick and sexy. (Note every batch we made was tested by canna labs and we never had a residual Butane issue.). Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum

    [quote name="Tusselhoff" post="19432140" timestamp="1391047506"]Do you have a good recipe for cakepops? I had one from a local dispensary recently and I'd love to make my own[/quote]. I love cake pops but I have never made infused cake pops but the near thing is any recipe with fat can be substituted with an infused oil or butter so take a browse around foodnetwork.com they have pretty good stuff on there.

    By the way Mr. Silly no offense taken we can't learn if we don't ask question! And I gave a pretty rough and not very detailed explanation of decarbingSent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum

    Pyrex straight in the pressure cooker I would double stack it bottom one upside down and the one with the extract on top so the bottom wouldn't burn. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum

    Have you ever used canna-sugar in your recipes, or infused honey or agave nectar?  :smoke:

    I'm glad you asked this! I have not infused sugar or honey however!!! I have infused maltrodextrin which is used in Splenda to buffer the aspertaine(stuff that makes Splenda sweet) Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum

    You would infuse your sugar with a concentrated Green Dragon and the same with the honey although each can be done using BHO or other concentrates, too. You'd just reconstitute some with a bit of alcohol for the sugar and the oil will dissolve into the warm honey on its own. Agave, like glycerin, doesn't infuse as easily with oil and needs a bit more work. 
     
    By using the sugar and honey, agave and glycerin you can make products like ice cream and candy without having to infuse an oil or butter or other lipid and it keeps its texture and potency can be controlled. It's pretty good stuff if I do say so myself.  ;)
     
    Here's my recent ice cream batch...Praline Almond Pecan Fudge made with infused agave nectar and glycerin. This is one medical grade dose.

    That's fantastic! As for the maltrodextrin I was very proud of this creation because once it's infused it will now dissolve in water so with this you can infuse anything you want with easy even a bottle of water. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum

    Do tell? I can't eat sugar or honey.

    The canna-sugar is the same way. Agave nectar is low glycemic and can be used by diabetics if that's a factor.  :)

    [quote name="mrsilly" post="19436262" timestamp="1391109477"]Do tell? I can't eat sugar or honey.[/quote] I had access to a $20,000 lab mixer although I'm sure similar results can be obtained by a food processor. It's simple you dissolve the bho into vegetable oil smallest amount possible and then mix it with the maltrodextrin until it's a dry mixture.Sent from my iPad using Grasscity Forum

    No just avoid sugar. Thanks, is one caveat to that. Unless there is dark chocolate involved. Lol

    Between this thread's inception and now PsychedelicSam has done extensive research on Decarb.

    The current recommended decarb for Flowers is 240 F for 40 minutes.
