Whats the best way to cook hash

Discussion in 'Weed Edibles' started by bigbudstev, Jan 9, 2012.

  1. I got a bunch of shotty hash I wanna bake not sure what to do, is it the same as cooking weed? And what's good with hash i was thinking stick to the basics and go with brownies
     

  2. Have you checked the stickied threads?

    There is a thread almost entirely devoted to decarbing and processing hash, for edibles!
    The link is below (along with a few photos, from the tutorials).



    ---------------------


    It's the same glandular material, and as such, it requires the same processing in order to become active, and then
    bioavailable. [​IMG]

    Under-processing can provide few to no effects, unless you drastically increase and multiply the amount eaten...
    without the right processing, most of your potency goes 'in one end, and out the other' without absorption!
    With the right processing, you can have multiple, stronger, and longer-lasting doses, from the same amount of
    material that only gives you a mild buzz, if you cut-corners.

    It's why we have so much dosage discrepancy, and so many failed edible stories... processing matters! :eek:


    If it is in the form of an extract or concentrate, the main difference is that it may have already been decarboxylated
    (or activated).

    If you don't know one way or the other, whether or not it has been decarbed, then your best bet is to decarb it very
    lightly, as described in the below tutorial, but a hair more briefly... if it is already active, you shouldn't degrade it too
    much with additional abbreviated activation, and on the off chance it wasn't heat-purged, and it isn't decarbed,
    then a gentle/brief decarb is MUCH better, than working with entirely inactive material!
    Active or not, it will still require the same, and sometimes even more effort when moving on to the oil..... this is
    because the glandular material is much more dense, rather than being separated and spread out in the trichomes, and a
    dense concentrate often requires more manual agitation and effort, to break down in oil within a reasonable amount
    of time
    , to prevent over-exposure to heat.

    (The above hash oil recipe for capsules, can also be used for any of the oil-based edible recipes in the above link...)


    ------------


    Cannabis glandular material is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb, even if it has been activated, and even when it
    is in the form of a sticky filtered concentrate, such as BHO.

    It needs a 'vehicle' such as oil, glycerin, or even alcohol, which drastically improves cellular permeability, in order to provide
    you with the most absorption and the strongest sensations.

    [​IMG]

    The above 'water' could be brownie mix, it could be a beverage, or it could simply be the extra contents of your stomach
    after swallowing canna oil.

    When you process in oil gently, for long enough, a solution is formed in such a way when the solvent (in this case, oil) creates
    a persistent 'coat' on the broken down particles of the solute (cannabis glandular material)... once this occurs, you have
    a bioavailable 'solution'.


    In other words, we choose the edible solvents we do, not only because they are effective at breaking down cannabis
    glandular material, but because they help our bodies absorb it!


    And even the specific oil source you choose, directly dictates where in the body, your oil is absorbed.... this is why the
    quality of oil matters, as well.

    Unless you know for a fact that your liver does not function properly, and that it consistently over-metabolizes both
    food and medications, you should start with medium-chain containing oils such as coconut oil and palm kernal oil,
    or to a lesser extend, clarified butter.

    These oils deliver potency via the portal vein and liver, where a kind of chemical conversion takes place as the liver
    metabolizes the oil, causing the majority of the D9-THC to convert to the more powerful 11-OH-THC!!


    Choose the wrong oil, however, and you miss out on most, if not all of that conversion... which results in a much
    weaker, shorter-lived experience.


    -------



    Long story short (TL;DR)... the above may be a bit wordy, or a bit more than you wanted to know up-front, but the actual process is EASY!
    Just click the link for instructions. :)



    Hope this helps :wave:
     
  3. saym 1s that hate, saym 1s that tag along
     
  4. You can get all scientific and technical if you really want to but i've found the quickest and easiest way is to wrap your keif reeeeally tight in cellophane [like off a cigg pack] and then wrap that with wet paper and tape it and squish down on it all which ways until its in a ball [do this before you put the wet paper] and then just put it in the oven for like 30 or 35 minutes and make sure the paper stays damp and keep checking on it, when its nice and dark it should be done [however you can't see through the paper so just do the 3o or 40 minutes before checking] and keep your oven at about 300 - 320...
    Its quick, easy, and effective. :D
     
  5. OHHHH YOU MEANT COOKING THE HASH!!!
    I thought i was reading about how to MAKE the hash...
    My bad...
