I'm working on my edible game and am wondering why peanut oil is not used to emulsify the thc containg product? Is it that fats that turn solid at room temp facilitate absorbtion better? Id like to make peanut butter so it seems peanut oil would be the logical choice?
Appreciate the gummy info but for me its a texture thing:spew:
I'd do a test run with the peanut oil(no concentrate or infused oil) just to see how stable they'll be. Sunflower,or soy lecithin is a great emulsifier and bioavalability agent.

sorry for the derail folks...Back to the chucker's pics!

I redid my bathroom a few yrs back,oreder all new cabinets & things from Menards..
Well they sent the stuff,everything went good.

*Long Post Warning* Gummie recipe....just scroll past if not interested...ha!

Couldn't find the link but I found the recipe....copied and pasted to my notes from reddit. I don't use the infused coconut oil(I could never get the gummies clear) I use 1-2gs rosin per batch.
After some trial and error and candymaking research. This recipe has garnered me consistent results. The meat and potatoes to gummies IMO is concentrate/infused oil quality,TEMPS TEMPS TEMPS and blooming the gelatin.
The mold inhibitors are used if I plan on having them for more than a week...:mrgreen:.
I don't use the flavorings because my jello and fruit juices are all the flavor I need.
The rosin taste in the gummies is there,funny, I find the people who've had them actually want to taste some hints of the concentrate.I guess they've had an experience or two of not getting the desired effects of gummies from other sources.

GUMMY Ingredients:
Amnt. Ingr. 6 oz (170 grams) Flavored jello
1/2 cup Granulated sugar
5 Tbsp High quality grass fed gelatin (ex. Zint)
1 cup Cold fruit juice 1 tsp Soy lecithin 5 Tbsp Infused coconut oil
1 Tbsp Vegetable glycerin
2 drops Loranns Preserve-it antioxidants
2 drops Loranns Mold Inhibitor
10-20 drops (depending on strength) Loranns Flavoring Supplies: Molds (I recommend silicone ones)
Cookie sheet
A small to medium sized pot
Gallon zip lock bag
Whisk Thermometer Liquid measuring cup

Directions: Lay your molds onto a cookie sheet so they are easier to move into the freezer later. Also set up your gallon zip lock now because that's what you'll be using to pour your gummy mixture into your molds. I usually just put the zip lock in a large cup and flap the edges over the sides so I can pour the mixture directly from the pot to the zip lock with out the help of another person.
In a liquid measuring cup, add 1 cup of cold fruit juice. Add 1 tsp of Soy Lecithin and mix well with a fork. Let sit in fridge for 5 minutes then mix well again, until the soy is mostly dissolved.
In your pot, mix together JUST your dry ingredients. jello, sugar, and gelatin. Pour your fruit juice into your dry ingredients and mix with a whisk (this is off the stove, no heat yet)
Cover the pot and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes so your mixture can bloom. This is a very important step so don't skip it! After 20 minutes, move your pot to the stove and start to raise the temperature using a low-medium heat.
Don't stir.
At 140 degrees Fahrenheit, give it a stir with your whisk, and pay more attention now to the temp because we are getting close.
At 160 degrees Fahrenheit is when the rest of your ingredients get mixed in, so make sure you already have them measured out so you can easily just pour then in. Add the infused coconut oil, vegetable glycerin, flavoring, and drops. Mix well.
160 degrees is the goal temperature, but it's okay if it gets a little higher in the time it takes to add and mix your ingredients. Just don't let it exceed 180!
Pour your hot mixture into your zip lock bag and zip shut. Cut a SMALL piece from the corner of the bag so it doesn't come pouring out too fast. Fill your molds and then place your molds in the freezer for 1 hour.

I've tweaked this a bit,substituted things and subtracted some.

I will be culling 2 unless one of you can compel me to keep them. I think they are combating a fungal or bacterial issue. White fuzzyness at top nodes new growth, seems to wipe off but growth gets stunted.

I want to make peanut butter not peanut butter gummies. So can I emulsify with a mix of peanut oil and lecithin, then mix back into the peanut butter (I'd use the oil from one of the natural pb that separates)?
I have soy lecithin but am increasingly concerned about how it's farmed and how it impacts hormones, I'll give Sunflower a shot.

P.S.
I have tried an emulsion with bacon fat and unless you are going to make biscuits and gravy, I'd probably not recommend it.

My bad, I misunderstood. You are speaking of edibles not specifically gummies and peanut butter:wall: lol.

I make some reece's like peanut butter cups.Pretty damn potent.Easiest edible I make,no baking involved. Only,heat used is to infuse the concentrate/infused oil into the peanut butter. VG and Lecithin are key.

I use the "The Capn's" recipe from dude grows blog. Google The most potent cannabutter recipe.This is my go to butter recipe.
I also use his peanut butter cup recipe in the aforementioned text.

I do peanut butter all the time it will separate and need a good stir each time you open the jar if you use a whole jar that is. I like to warm it slightly and drizzle it over some ice cream it makes like a crust of peanut butter over the ice cream so good

Sunflower is a better option.

any extra edibles or gummies or any potent medibles around, hollar, may want the recipe or to be a tester, lol. no really.
Does this count? And are you in CO?
20190302_114122.jpg
7.?g bubble hash from the 120 bag (I have ar 220, 120, 25 micron set) decarbed 40 min @ 240F (didn't weigh after). Mason jar, foil formed to make water resivoir, "sealed" with ring. No lecithin. 2 Tbsp butter, 2 Tbsp coconut oil, held below 180 while chocolate added (most :fire:of 1 bar).
20190302_114949.jpg
And it's the last one of 8, so ~7/8 g hash ea. To me seems equivalent to 2 - 3 of the 100mg dispensary edibles. But, pb will be done with the 25 micron bag and lecithin.

Here's some good info as to why coco oil is often used my friend.. peanut oil is one on the lower end of sat fats fwiw

https://potguide.com/pot-guide-marijuana-news/article/why-coconut-oil-is-best-for-cannabis-infusions/

Ive used other fat bases and can honestly tell a difference.. Extract using olive/peanut oil and the edibles wont be as "potent" as coco oil with the same amount/quality product

LMFAO, I think these guys, potguide dot com, sponsor a section of highway near me for trash pick up.
Thanks for the link.

Coconut oil is all we use. I bake mine into breads mostly. Right now I have a canna cranberry orange muffin loaf in the freezer.

I need to dilute some and try drops in my breakfast coffee when hiking. Just a little scared of the dreaded too high to hike syndrome.

If I wanted peanut butter, I’d just decarb some RSO , rosin, shatter , or keif , n mix it in. Adding oil to already existing PB will give you a runny mess. You can buy dehydrated PB that you could add the oil to for a better consistency, but I would experiment with it n oil before adding Cannabis to see if you like it . ( I picked up a big bottle for mountain hunting , it was gross , wasn’t worth the weight saving , n got tossed )
