say you had an ounce of pot , how would you cook it to maximize the extraction process, recipes please?

sorry pc froze

I grind the herb extremely fine. No need to strain it then. Better flavor.

Once you have your butter, heat some milk, add some honey and stir it well. After the honey and milk are well mixed and nicely hot (not boiling) stir in a couple tablespoons of butter.
It's a great hot, trippy beverage for the cold winter months.

fyi, I am into aromatherapy so of course my first thought about this thread was that you wanted to literally extract it and make an essential oil.

But now I wonder what would happen if you used this method with other things that are highly nutritious / probiotic, etc... would the butter method work with them too?

I do. Some use a double boiler - but you can do it without. You just refrigerate the the butter consolidates on top (oil floats on water). Once the butter is hard you just pour the water off.

Add a carton of cream simmer 20 minutes or so. Be ready to not be able to get off your couch. It is very healing if done over months.

It'll work on anything that is fat-soluble so you might need to research the chemistry of what you're trying to extract.

Another extraction method is to use a solvent and a separator funnel - thats how I extract pure caffeine from coffee.

Idk about coconut butter but TCH is fat soluble. Butter is used because it has a lot of fat in it. IDK how much fat is in coconut butter. But if you plan to use that make sure it has more fat content than butter does.

You want maximum fat content.

Also whatever it is that you cook you wanna cook at low temp as THC burns off at higher temperatures. So you wanna cook whatever it is that your baking at 275*F.

Also typically people make foods from leaf trimmings. not from actual buds. If you have an ounce of buds that would make quite a bit of butter. Id say 8-10 sticks of butter.

The 1 method is to put the butter in water and simmer it in the weed. Then refrigerate and the butter solidifies on top of the water and you dump the water. The reason to use water is that it boils at 212*F, ergo will not burn off the THC.

So if you do not use water to simmer the weed and butter in then you will have to watch the temp.

If you choose not to use water then the best way is to get a crock pot and put the weed and butter in there without any water. But then you have to pour the butter through the cheese cloth while its hot/warm. But if you keep the crock pot on low it should be not hot enough to really burn you.

Also the longer you let it simmer the better. This is why crock pot is prefered method. But you wanna mkae sure its not simmering above... bout 200*F. But in the crock pot you can just leave it on low for however many hours you feel. 2-8 hours.

then the butter cools and you just use it as normal butter in any recipe youd like.

Once it's bound to the butter you can cook at any temp that doesn't scorch it.

4 times the potency when cooked.

yes ice!

[link to www.wackywillysweb.com]

The best way is to melt the butter first and try get rid of the white juice at the bottom called buttermilk. Once you get rid of that, time to put the weed in.

you can use ice if you want, it will no mix in since butter is fat, once it cool off yo can get ride of the water.


I never used ice , just melt the butter slowly on low eat, try not going higher then 52 celcius, once the butter melted and you got rid of the butter milk, put the weed in the pot, I found simmering to be too high of a heat, stir often it will help keep the heat lower, let it sit for a good hour stiring every 5 min.

then you filter the butter and voilà !

nice

check out rick simpson 'run from the cure' on youtube...

an OZ probably won't be enough but in the seven part series he shows you EXACTLY how to do it...

I like to grind it up and fry it with bacon. Then group the bacon up and melt cheese on the bacon. Then scoop that up and put it on a soft bun or hawaiin bread, and fry that up in the grease like a grilled cheese. They whip up some chipotle mayo... You will be asleep in 30 minutes after consuming.

Basically, put it in a seasoning bottle and use it as a seasoning.

Get quite a bit. Fly to Siberia and do a Heston. Find some Eskimos to give you some of the finest and healthy and happy raindeer. Climb aboard the warm and cozy sled. The journey may take about 12hours to the raindeer farm and by the time you get there you will wonder why you didnt just use the Raindeer pulling the sled for use in the recipe. So climb out, undo the weed, squeze the raindeer nipples for the lush raindeer milk. Its supposed to be good milk. Blend that shit together and blitz it cooler than the outdoor snow with liquid nitrogen and make one of the best icreams you have ever experienced. Make sure you extuinguish the fire place and candles and turn off all the appliances. grab a spoon and enjoy. The trip back home. On the sled, blown, with the raindeer. The quietness of the vehicle on the snow. Through the tunnells of trees. Let the moon be your guide

then ...I was like...

Lol. dont worry. Im now looking back like wtf. Shit reindeers. giddy the fuk up theres a bear chasing us

Lol. dont worry. Im now looking back like wtf. Shit reindeers. giddy the fuk up theres a bear chasing us

The best two ways I know of are these:

1. get a sturdy picture frame sized boxing,cover it with chees cloth fine grade and ultra fine grade, [ultra fine will be your bottom layer]
put it in a stury poly thene bag/builders rubble bag and place your weed on top, knot or tie end up to prevent spillage.
get a broom pole about 2ft.
get comfy with bag between legs.
start beating the weed through the side of the bag but not so hard as to damage the bag or cheeseframe inside.
beat all over for about 10 mins
rest for a moment [5mins] for weed to relax back out
beat again for another ten mins
repeat process twice more
dont open sack until end
when done open carefully
top layer should be bare/baron stalks
middle layer will be the equivalent grade of afghany black
on the unerside of the sack under the frame will be the best grade canabis oil you ever had

both layers will be sort of powdery but the warmth of you fingers makes it amalgamate together

enjoy.

2.
get a large bucket or tub.
large stock of ice cubes
large cheese cloth big enough to completely reach the bottom andtill be hanging over the sides all the way round.
get a whisk - electric is best
fill the bucket with freezing cold water
shred your weed - leaves and thin stems too
put it in the water, add as much ice as you can
start whisking
25 mins
lift the cheese cloth out and squeeze it over the bucket
look inthe bucket
that aint sand my friend :o]

pour off water careful not to loose any silt :o]
dry silt any way you want.
dont drive under this influence
dry the contents of the cheese cloth - very low grade but useable for cooking

both ways are for medicinal purposes only and is actually illegal in my country and i wound never actually do this kind of thing unless it was to save a life.

not all drugs are bad for you.

wish this herb would be re classified in my country.
it really is a life saver.

H.A.N.D.

Have A Nice Day.

I just realised that your question could also be interpreted as already having resin or oil and obviously this process would be for the plant itself

many ways to expand oil to make it go further but mainly down to your own personal preferences
mix it with any thing you are cooking with as THC only becomes active above a certain temp [higher than our natural body temp] can't remember but you can check
hope something I said was useful to anybody

:o]

H.A.N.D.
Have A Nice Day!

make butter with it

cook with the butter

bingo

soak you dry budds (only) in just enough 90% alchohal (you can get it in Walmart) - I soak mine over night, (I'm in CO too) then you squeeze them out (saving the liquid) and rinse the buds in another bath of alchohal, for about a minute, and save that liquid too

put the liquid in a slow cooker and cook it (all day) and let the alchohal evaporate, until you see stuff sticking to the walls ( try not to let it boil - 240 degrees will "kill" it)... let sit over night to settle, pour off the remaining liquid, and suck the "tar" up int an syringe (no needle)

you only need one drop (It will harden as it dries), twice a day for two weeks to cure what ails ya ... so far they haven't found anything Pot won't cure ... and why they don't want us to have it

you can smoke it (in a vaporizer - no direct flame) eat it, or apply it topically ... you'll be amazed at the results over a two week period ... often noticed in the first 24hours

oops ... forgot to day, soak in just enough alchohal to cover buds ... I don't crush or mash because what you are trying to go is get all the THC which coats the leaves ... not smash it ... anyway that is why you rinse it, after you squeeze out all the alchohal after it soaks ... I do mine in a two quart glass jar with a tight lid and shake it gently

also forgot to say, to strain it through a coffee filter before you put it in your crock pot ... I strain mine twice to get a real pure "tar" that is not too solid - easier to dispense

BE WELL

the recipe above won't get you "high" it will cure you

if you want to get high off this pure THC extract, then flame on, it is the high temps that releases the "euphoric" qualities that Canibis (THC) contains ... but it doesn't cure anything ... if you want the cure don't heat it above 240 degrees, if you want the "High" ... put it in your pipe and smoke it

explains alot thanks

If you make coconut butter successfully there is a guy who belts his kids for not reading the bible and that spreads the stuff on the wounds. Just sayin

You MORON. The guy from the article uses COCOA butter. It has NOTHING TO DO WITH COCONUTS.


Jesus you people are retarded.
