Making THC infused chocolate and weed vs hash

Discussion in 'Apprentice Marijuana Consumption' started by TimToke, May 31, 2018.

    Hi guys,

    I want to make some edibles tomorrow or the day after and I had this really simple idea;

    1. Melt chocolate on the stove
    2. Mix weed/hash into the chocolate
    3. Let it sit for an hour

    Do you guys think this would work? I was also wondering if I should use hash instead of weed. I'm thinking it would mix more evenly into the chocolate than weed but I haven't found anything online about the difference between using hash or weed in an edible.

    A better option is to buy chocolate butter

    make canabutter to a standard recipe

    then melt your chocolate and mix it in

    you melt butter and chocolate on a' bain maree'

    temp is vital when cooking chocolate

    good luck

    If you decarb your hash first that would work.

    It's easier to smoke a joint or take an oil capsule and eat a regular chocolate bar.

    OP you need to decarb your gear first or you'll just be eating weed/hash mixed with chocolate & that won't do anything lol

    I thought the heating of the stove for the chocolate would be sufficient to decarb. I've done a shit ton of research though and I've decided to decarb for a few hours at 110 *C (sorry americans), then 'infuse'
    Yeah I was thinking that directly mixing it with the chocolate would decarb it as well, which is kind of true, but it's definitely not going to give the best results

    Hours?? You'll ruin the herb I'm pretty sure 40 minutes is all it needs

    As for mixing into chocolate to decarb it wouldn't work man

    You're best off following @BrassNwood decarb method he gets good results doing it his way

    Just click his profile & look for a post called hash capsules it'll have all the details lol

    I've done a fuck ton of internet research and I'm going to decarb for 4 hours at 100 *C/212 F (yes, it DOES decarb at that temp), 'infuse' it with peanut butter(was thinking peanut butter might mask the flavor well, but I'm not going to remove any of the weed) and then I'll just mix it with the molten chocolate, hope it hardens and peanut butter chocolate doesn't taste like shit lol

    Here's a link to a research done at the university I'm currently studying at lol
    I'm basing it off of a study by TU Delft I'll have to look it up so I can link it to you. It says optimum temp is 373 K(=110 *C) for 110 minutes(probably for easy remembering).

    I changed it to 100 *C because I want to boil it. Ovens can be pretty inaccurate with temperatures.

    Yeah, we'll see.

    If it doesn't work, at least I get to contribute to stoner science(and waste some dank ass weed but whatever) :p

    I'll post how it goes

    I'm not gonna have time to enjoy the experience until Wednesday though, so stay tuned until then

    I would use hash, dissolve in as little coconut oil as possible, then add that to an actual recipe for chocolate bars or fudge. Here is an easy way to make peanut butter fudge.

    Take 2g of hash and dissolve in to 1/16th to 1/8th cup of coconut oil and set aside.

    In a pot put in 2 cups of sugar, and 1/2 cup milk. Bring to a boil, boil 2.5 minutes stirring constantly. Make sure that the sugar dissolves completely or the end product will have a granular texture.

    Turn off the burner, mix in 3/4 cup peanut butter, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and your infused coconut oil. Mix quickly until smooth, pour in to a greased dish (or one with parchment paper), cool and chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours.

    As long as your hash doesn't have a lot of plant matter the peanut butter does a great job of covering the weed taste.

    Well I'm not sure what to do with it. I tasted maybe like a crumble and it made me gag. The combination of weed, peanut butter and chocolate is terrible. The weed is the tastiest part...

    Any tips (besides taking a deep breath)?


    I'm definitely infusing it without peanut butter next time, fuck

    Okay guys.

    One thing is for fucking sure. Although the taste might be nearly vomit inducing, the decarbing DEFINITELY works

    Because I'm high AF now
