Pot experts! Can u explain if Decarbing pot will help...
Make it stronger before I cook it in a pot in butter on the stove?

Or is it an unnecessary step that adds little to no value?

Like any herb, heating before use will break down the main things you want. In this case cbd-thc. So I always decarb. I go 9 grams per pound of butter or 4 cups oil.

Re: Pot experts! Can u explain if Decarbing pot will help...
you must decarboxylate ATHC in to D9THC the psychoactive chem that gets ya high.

otherwise you can still receive health benefits and a mild high from eating raw cannabis.
you just won't get as high

Re: Pot experts! Can u explain if Decarbing pot will help...
I use a sous vide machine (ANOVA) and a recipe I found on "sounded". It's practically idiot proof and makes the best pot butter ever. We made some with an ounce of really good weed and about a half of vaporized leftovers per pound of butter. We gave them to my wife's family on Christmas and got a call from everyone later that night thinking they were dying. Good times.

Re: Pot experts! Can u explain if Decarbing pot will help...
As I've recently found out while researching how to make edibles, if lecithin is used in the cannabutter recipe it makes the THC in the final product more bioavailable...so instead of it taking an hour for an edible to come on, it only takes 20 minutes. It doesn't make the THC value stronger, it just carries it to the blood stream much more efficiently.

I'm going to be making my first batch of canna-caramels next week....rolleyes I thought it was going to be this week, but I gotta wait until next week to get the green for it.

I will also be substituting coconut palm sugar for the brown sugar because it's much healthier.


Harhar...I can't wait to make some, it's like I'm running in place with the waiting.


And, yes OP, every single thing I've researched has said to decarb the green first. Once the green is ground it only takes 20 min. in the oven.

unnecessary step only needed for cold extractions because cooking pot in butter/water decarbs the thc.

grinning...seriously, I don't know how I'm going to make until next week. I've wanted to try making edibles for awhile now, a long while, like years....I was a chef when I was younger, so this has more in it for me than just getting high without smoking.

Heh, I just want to know that I can indeed make kickass canna-caramels.

Here's a link to make it....and, agumball , I posted it wrong earlier, the lecithin is added during the preparation of the cannabutter. I need to go back and edit the post when I'm finished here.


[link to hightimes.com]


Rather than using the lecithin granules, I ordered the liquid lecithin online (vitacost.com, NOW product, less than $9, and should be enough for four times of the above recipe). It just seemed a better road to go with the liquid, although the granules can certainly be used....edibles aren't cheap to make, so wherever costs can be cut, I'm down.

Oh, and the lecithin I got is made from NGMO Sunflowers, rather than the GMO soy lecithin.

Oh boy...harhar, I'm sooo ready to make them!

Noice!

I'm also going to make some canna-coconut oil in the future, but I wanted to use (organic) butter to make caramels in particular, for the flavor.

If I were making brownies or cookies, then I would use coconut oil...it's what I use to make regular cookies with.


I've scoured over that website recently, it's a good one!
