How much thc can coconut/lecithin hold?

[medidedicated]

I Was thinking 2 oz per cup oil but I wonder if theres a limit which is partly the subject of thread. I think I may run into issues saturating all the weed, like for example 5gs kief or resin in 1tb spoon oil is the limit for that recipie before it becomes too much.

What about weed? About to find out soon maybe today.

Heres the weed with the lief beat out of it. So a couple oz per cup of this.

I guess this will be the edible general question thread as well.

Melted chocolate chips and cannacoco butter shelf life? Im reading up to a month but could last longer.

This would be awesome if its long shelf life I dont feel like cooking weekly.

Oh wow and gourmet chocolate same thing even if its milk chocolate. Im attracted to chocolates more thats a huge relief since realizing they cost like an easy $100 in ingredients.

They last though I got bulk honey and vanilla but the cocoa and butter cost 15$ each and go fast. I can only make two batches from it before I can to do more math skimping.

I didnt bother because it only makes so much chocolate so cancels itself out. Im zooted hope that made sense.

I should use concentrate though to taste better since it cost a bit.

What if you add RSO to the infused coconut oil? It sort of srands to reason that after the oil has become infused with the max amount of oil that if you add RSO it would then become a blend c-oil and RSO. Make it as strong as you like. This is just a thought that I'm not going to do.

I make oatmeal or peanut butter cookies using 1 once of trimmed bud to 1 cup of coconut oil. One cup of oil per batch. That makes ~30 cookies in the 80-90 mg range and lasts about a week.

Love the chocolate but mine didn't taste good at all. Any sugestions as to how to make it right would be very welcome.

Making that saturated butter I said id do. I am making a half pound of trim, finer trim and flower rosin pucks with some kief pucks too. Few oz of trim that wasnt sifted for kief. It might be a decent batch.

Its old stuff to discard. In 8 weeks Il be pulling in over a pound every 9 weeks and will sift the trim for kief. Make dry sift rosin. Use the rest with the smashed rosin pucks to make loads of butter.

Will make large amounts of chocolate and eat them over the course of a month.

A half pound into 4 cups coconut oil. A cup of sunflower lecithin since soy is highly estrogenic. So far its like black coffee. Used coffee grinder.

Those butter things are dope but pro tip pour into it in the fridge where youll chill it solid. Not easy walking across kitchen with them.

I need find a better way to strain large amounts at once, as bone dry as possible. So much meds left behind. I was more focused not tainting the oil.

Im thinking cheesecloth and a c clamp or similar vice grip type thing. My normal way is fine for a half oz but thats it. I just threw the sludge in a lemon squeezer into the funnel and tossed away but it was still some left behind.

Not bad I tried my best took like 40 mins doing it because want quality. Not squeezed till the last drop but almost. Just took waay to long and labor im tired sore.

To answer myself id say 35% to 40% of bowl was just straight weed. Could I of added double, 4oz per cup oil or slightly less?

I start to wonder when I am starting to just waste product but if the answer is pretty much “just enough to wet it” being the max then im just applying that to this situation.

It was nice to get rid of all that. I guess I am extracting it again and just trying to get as much out of it before trashing it.

It would be great if you could eat it but lol you cant. So using the oil as a vehicle to deliver and straining it dry is all im doing I guess.

Edibles dont take a lot so it works. Well I have yet to test this but its double the amount as last time.

Set your mold on a sheet pan. It helps when moving them.

Definetly the darkest butter Ive made ever. Each square is 1 table spoon. Close enough precision Im happy.

I waited to say this to make sure its not just me. I keep getting a consistent stomach ache from my last butter. Why could that be? Too much plant material? Lecithin? Thc?

First time making trim edibles. They do get you stoned which is great but… Why the aches?

They started out intense to where I couldnt eat the first time, then now its subtle. I ate dinner and forgot it was happening but came back for a little.

Today I have a little bit of a ache but very very subtle. Getting used to it?

I am eating larger amounts than usual unless I dilute the cookies with regular coconut oil so its high dose.

Ive been grinding to dust its why I think it works with small amounts of kief left behind, was worried I wouldnt get stoned but thats not the issue.

I want to give these away at some point having so much of it but dont want to if it does that. I would want to make sure it doesnt.

Looking up, cannabis leaves are edible so idk. I am eating higher doses than a typical person would need. Shoot this sucks.

Thought I found a innovative way to make something from nothing and I still may of.

If not speaking too soon.. Those cookies are pretty high dose I eat one in late morning and another after lunch. That second one kept aching my stomach.

Like a heartburn but not at same time. An ache I rarely get… idk, from too much soda, cake. I cant even explain it. Maybe a combination of bad mixing food in your stomach.

Like youre backed up or something, bloated. A bit TMI but trying get to the bottom of it, its potentially a valuable product.

Just too much of it can upset stomach and to have lower amounts but typically people do, I just require 50-100mg to feel a decent buzz.

Too much and I do get upset symptoms and eat myself sober its weird. So thats good news its good to eat just dont eat too much. Impurities? Heavy metals and etc? Idk.

I just am glad its not trash. It slaps like a new good song you just found. Its money baby!

Have you tried decarbing hash in oil? Last outdoor grow i decarbed 17g of bubble hash in 16 oz coconut oil. It was plenty strong with no stomach problems

Its supposed to be from sifted trim and pressed flower rosin pucks with some pressed kief pucks to make something from nothing.

Trying to make a product out of what normally would be thrown away. This kind of ache is new to me, Ive had other symptoms from eating too much but not this before.

It didnt seem like I had too much either but maybe from this particular butter its easier to over do.

Gosh damnit there it is again. It could be too much dose from chocolate that need to eat less. Its my first session with it and ate a whole piece which is like 3 tbsp chocolate.

Will try eating less. I did not have this issue with the pressed flower/kief I realize this is first time using trim. Half sifted and aged and half unsifted but few months older.

Why!? Omg. All other cannabutter from flower and live resin no ache whatsoever. Could eat 3 cookies or more the most id get is liver ache from like 5 cookies. 100mg ish each.

With 500+ mg eating a bunch of live resin cannabutter id get quezy, headache, bathroom trips il leave it at that. Sometimes for nothing. Not to puke though. Not a stomach ache though.

The cookies expire today but already ate chocolate and have this ache. Will update what happens tomorrow with less chocolate. They taste great though.

Well first time searching about it and reddit convinced me its the plant material its harsh to eat. Thats a poor search but sometimes it helps.

I used to give fan leaves to a friend to turn to food and swore it got them a little buzzed but anyway, no stomach ache. Hmm. Idk.

I made heavy green plant loaded oil many times. It was my preferrence because the edibles were so damn fire for someone who dont typically feel it from any other edible without lecithin. Also the craft beer like asthetics from making dark oil.

Omg stomach was on FIRE yesterday. Not a thc overdose though because I dabbed a big dab and was ok again. Usually too much thc via edibles dabbing doesnt relieve if I ate too much.

Nothing like this burning sensation though. So today ate a bite. If it hurts, its trash if it dont theres hope. Just increase dose until it burns again and that will determine the value of this hard work.

Before I forget to mention this is first time adding 2oz per cup oil, trim and rosin pucks. Last time it was all flower rosin pucks and got no ache whatsoever.

 

[medidedicated]

In a nutshell, anyone, why would cannabutter ache stomach like a burning sensation? @BrassNwood ? Its 95% trim which is my first time doing which is also first time this ever happened.

Half the trim was raw leaf with minimal oils. I grind to dust in coffee grinder so a lot of plant particles but that didnt bother my stomach before.
