Why though? I was under the impression that the gel capsule would dissolve very rapidly in stomach acid. So why does it take 3-4x as long as a cookie to start kicking in? Is there any way to expedite the process?

my guess (<-- keyword) is that when you chew the cookie you kick off a certain amount of sublingual/trandsdermal action.... when you wait for a pill to dissolve in your stomach the next absorbing opportunity doesn't come until the material enters your intestines.
pre-chewed things tend to be more bio-available.... when i need a painkiller to act fast i crush the pill and swallow the resulting powder (yes it generally tastes
)..... the flip side is that it wears off sooner 
do the effects last longer once they happen, at least?

correctamungo miss kitty 
that is why lollipops work so well.
here you go guy:
Butterscotch Candy recipe:
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup (such as Karo)
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup canna butter
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Put sugar, corn syrup, water and salt into saucepan. Stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Increase heat and cook until thermometer registers 250 F. firm ball stage. Add butter; cook with occasional stirring until thermometer registers 300F. brittle stage. Remove from stove immediately. Carefully add vanilla extract. This is also where I add in my hash oil. I usually add a couple good teaspoonfuls, depending on how many asses you wish to kick Make sure you stir and mix up very well. If you have molds, pour into them, if not: pour into buttered shallow pan, making a layer 1/4 inch deep. While warm, crease into squares with a blunt knife. When cold, break into pieces.
Easy peasy. I think you will find the effects take hold a lot quicker with this form. Like Mello said, it is a sub-lingual intake and right into your system. Hope this is handy for you

I don't know about that. The cookie is in my mouth for only a few seconds, and the effects don't kick in for about an hour. The oil in the capsule has already been processed and should be just as bio-available as the cookie. If the stomach itself can't absorb the active ingredients from the capsule then it shouldn't be able to absorb them from the cookie. The only hindrance between the oil and my body is the capsule, which should dissolve very quickly in my stomach acid, leaving about 1ml of liquid canna-coconut oil in my belly.my guess (<-- keyword) is that when you chew the cookie you kick off a certain amount of sublingual/trandsdermal action.... when you wait for a pill to dissolve in your stomach the next absorbing opportunity doesn't come until the material enters your intestines.

The effects do seem to be lasting longer, though I have gone to sleep at the peak of the high during both trials because they took so long to kick in. I took one pill just before leaving work at 5pm, and another one about 8:30pm when I hadn't felt any effects. I smoked at about 9:30 when I still didn't feel any effects. I got pretty high from smoking, then just seemed to stay very high after that point. I was extremely high by 1-2 am, and ended up falling asleep around 3. The peak of the high being 8-9 hours after ingestion seems waaaaay too long though.

I used lecithin capsules. I cut them open and squeezed the oil out. I have since purchased lecithin powder, but the batch in question used the oil from the capsules. I have made candy, cookies, and capsules all from the same large batch of hash oil (I used 52 g of hash and processed it as per the instructions of this thread).
EDIT: So the difference between the cookies and the capsules has me stumped since they all came out of the same bowl and should be the same.

Any idea how long the canna caps will stay good for? And what would be the best way to store them?
Based on what I have found so far it seems they should stay good for 6 months if kept in the freezer.
I have some caps I made and just trying to use them sparingly because I don't have access to more for quite some time.

This thread is awesome, & I cannot wait to try these Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Canna-Bombs I'm making (the butter is being double-boiled as I type this!).
Since I began preparing this amazing recipe (I so-o-o-o-o-o-o cannot wait!) and have pondered the wisdom & experience of BadKittySmiles/BadKat, some curious questions have been raised regarding temperatures. The forum rules forbid multiple postings, so if anyone has any sights to offer regarding "Temperature: Vaping THC vs Cooking THC", I've asked my questions in this forum-posting.
Thank you in advance!

""Bad Kitty Smiles" Incredible Medible Maker
"Bad Kitty Smiles" is the user name for this
amazing woman who is a superbly valuable member of the forums, where
she shares "how to" information that you simply must know about to properly
prepare your meds. She generously gives of herself truly helping many many sick
people. When invited to be a speaker for the Summit she VOLUNTEERED instead
to produce a video for all of you to learn her many secrets. Without a doubt, at this
time at least, she is devoting the most time and energy of all the Summit participants
to produce something that will be of immense value for you to watch at the Summit...

And the full bio...
Speaker - Bad Kitty Smiles
"The cannabis growing guru and medical-edible-oil extraordinaire, BadKittySmiles, the 'Kat' of "BadKat's CannaPharm",
has devoted her life to assisting patients and all people in need, helping them to learn the healthiest production techniques
and the correct use of cannabis, by catering specifically to their individual needs and application requirements.
She specializes in cannabis edibles and bioavailable oils, in topical treatments, tinctures, and in growing cannabis in
a variety of environments and mediums, including aquaponics, or with the use of live fish as the primary means to sustain
the plants. Her skills with cannabis edibles and oils are known of, world wide, and patients from all corners reach out to
her with stories of their own success... many who contact her, myself included, have been met with a full inbox warning!
The persistence is more than worth it, when you finally get through!
She has traveled the globe for our wonderful cause, drawing deep insight from the collective knowledge of her 'masters',
totaling over one-hundred and fifty years of cannabis experience!
Kitty LOVES cooking with cannabis, and she uses it in a variety of creative, and daring recipes! She still smokes our canna,
mainly for pleasure, but she strongly promotes and encourages the consumption and topical application of edible cannabis oils,
and extracts, to maximize its powerful medicinal benefits by expanding the amount and array of cannabinoids and terpenes the
body is exposed to.
BadKat strongly believes that safe access to natural cannabis is essential, and crucial when it comes to healing and comforting
the seriously ill, but she also insists that even those people who are for all purposes considered 'healthy', can benefit by
periodically supplementing their own endocannabinoid systems with natural plant cannabinoids, in the same way we still
benefit from a varied diet containing essential chemicals (or their relatives!) that we can synthesize, without the aid of their
direct intake. At the very least, it's the healthy alternative when compared to relaxing with a strong drink or a cigarette! But
especially if you are on one or more prescription medications, cannabis may ease your conditions, and you may even be
able to eliminate some or all of those nasty synthetic chemicals! It's still important to work with a doctor who has a realistic
(ie. open minded) view of cannabis; you should always get his or her opinion, and alert them to any changes in your condition.
For the first time ever, with the progress our community has made in the last few years, Kat is expanding her availability,
and increasing her ability to help and reach a greater number of people and patients!

Quick Note From Us
We are extremely impressed with "Bad Kitty". Her passion for helping people is obvious to even the casual web
surfer stumbling upon forum threads where she shares extremely valuable tips on cooking up some of the best meds
possible.
We invited her to be a speaker for the Summit, but rather than accepting our request to let us interview her she instead
VOLUNTEERED to produce a video for us revealing many awesome tips & secrets of master canna-bakers!
She offered to make this video purely out of the goodness of her heart to provide to this much needed information particularly
at this time when multitudes of people are opening their minds to using cannabis to help with their ailments. We suggested
that she takes it a step further. After chatting back & forth a few times we have evolved a plan for her to produce even
more extra "bonus footage" content that will all get crammed into a DVD, along with the video she's producing for the Summit,
and it will be available for sale, very reasonably priced of course. We highly encourage you to buy a copy. Why?
First let us say that we, the Summit, won't take a single penny from the sales of the discs. 100% of the profits will go straight
to Bad Kitty Smiles to help support
the incredible work that she is doing truly helping many many people. We strongly believe that money in the hands of
good-hearted people greases the wheels of altruistic projects (like what she does with cannabis), and that is why we
will be promoting her videos. But remember, at the Summit you will be able to watch her main video, sharing
her many secrets, all for free. Why would you want to own a copy of her DVD? Share the disc with friends, and
also enjoy the bonus footage that will be there for you to learn from. You can also feel good inside knowing that your
purchase is directly helping her continue helping others.
Be sure to subscribe & register so that we may let you know once they are ready and available. In the meantime surf
around the awesome forums to start learning from this incredible medible master baker.
Here is a great link to get you started."
And that's that!
Exciting times are upon us! And I could not have done it without you, the AWESOME members of the online community!! :yay:
------
And here's a little photo drop and update from the newer thread, that I forgot to make here
-------
Just a quick photo-dump update, sharing what I've been up to lately... lots of edibles, frosty nuggage, and hash... things
have been pretty hectic, but I've been thinking of you all, often!
I've received many PMs and requests over the last few months for progress updates, and an ETA on the CannaPharm
book, as well as requests for updates in the thread; don't worry, I've been putting every spare moment I have into getting it
done!
Things have been very busy, locally, with old and new patients. I'm already beginning year two of my trial grows with the
MBS strain, from the Wizards of Oz, and I've been teaching a few more local and online classes on growing and cooking each
month, than I was this time last year (more than I can handle comfortably to be honest!). I also was recently asked to speak
at a new 'Marijuana World Summit', which (I believe) I will accept.
So things have been busy!
I'm completing the final-final draft of the first volume (had formatting issues which delayed the pre-holiday release), but
the holidays and their consequential meals and treats gave me plenty of extra ammo to squeeze in.
A few of the below recipes will be available in the CannaPharm thread, and the rest, as well as a dozen or so more, including
fresh, streamlined and 'more-concise' oil tutorials, will be included in the first book!
As always, the oil and tincture updates will be available for free, online; they are the most crucial aspect in any edible, and
everyone deserves to know how to medicate properly.
Availability of information, for those who need it most, is the main reason I was not just apprehensive to accept publishing a
book, but why I was totally against it, and why I instead devoted the last twelve or thirteen years to assisting as many people
as possible within the community online, where anyone with an internet connection or a town library can have access.
People need free access to the most important information, just as much as they need affordable access to their meds.
Making donations and providing assistance to those who need it most without any concern for compensation, have been
rules I've governed myself by.... which could explain my car-less-ness, and the fact I'm living in a foreclosed house, hoping
every day that I don't get the word I'm on the streets.
Finally publishing should improve my spirits concerning the above... in spite of anything I've been through, medically
and with the quality of my life, I think the book will make me feel a little more proud of the footprint I've left on the world,
when I can't be around to help anymore.
But if it wasn't for the motivation I received here, and from other members of the online community, there would never have been
even a thought about a book!
In spite of my initial stubbornness, you folks convinced me to see that, internet aside, there is definitely value in having a hard
copy of the information, in-hand, while working in the kitchen.
So thank you.
I truly hope that I can meet your expectations, and that the paper version of the CannaPharm helps to make your own
canna kitchens, all the more functional!
Anyhow, without further ado....
All the dishes in the photo below, including the berries and the cranberry punch, were VERY potent... a bit too much
when combined, for a few people (this does not include any of the 'unadulterated' dishes, that guests brought
).
Some New Year's Eve shots...
The oil below began with a strong batch of mixed indica hash oil, cut down, to decrease and level out potency, with
our favorite canna oil of the season made from the popcorn buds of the TRCP#3 (creating a powerful dose per cap, for
most patients, or a three or four cap dose for myself).
Each jar and bottle below, along with a few smaller gift bags with caps and chocolates, were given to the local
patients most in-need and those who had suffered the most hardship this year... enough for most to medicate daily, until
at least spring!
Another Xmas, or New Year bowl of MBS....
Had a very small group here for Christmas, these were the medicated dishes.... the Moose Pops contain 4 solid doses for
most patients, the Hashy Bars contain 4 - 6 doses (these were also given as gifts!)....
Half are 'Holiday Candy Cane' flavor, such as the fellow with the painted toenails, the rest were Original, Orange, and Amaretto.
More New Year's Eve, shots....
Project TRCP#3 flowers, with POG#8 shatter....
Blueberry Widow.... greasy with terpenes *droool*!
More MBS, with it's wonderful helices of various purple-blue-red anthocyanins, throughout the trichomes...
I made SIXTEEN of these ChiCanna Cordon Bleu rolls for brunch, with and without shrimp (lol
), New Year's Day!
Those who wanted to toast, rather than kiss at Midnight, did so with these, and another drink included in the book....
Now some Autumn and Halloween stuff's...
Healthy Ghosts, with omega oils, alfalfa, hemp protein, collagen and more!
Some not-so-healthy, and very decadent, Canna EYEBALLS with Raspberry HASH-Blood Jell!
And some 'Restaurant Style' Chinese Chicken Noodle Hash Soup, with little Jack-o'-lantern Hash Truffles....
Another New Year's Even bowl or two.....
A Lemon Haze shatter drop, on MBS...
And finally, a treat I've been making all year thanks to a GC member request (I'm finally following through on the pics &
tutorial, so look out for the book!
)....
Hashy Meringue Mushrooms!
There's nothing fungal, or psychedelic, about these little 'hash oil imbued' fellows... in case anyone was concerned
And again, here are the crucial oil recipes for anyone who needs them now;
Yes- The oils recipes CAN be followed using clarified butter, and if you're using pre-vaped bud, just skip decarboxylation
where activation has already taken place, and continue processing -just- as described in the tutorial, to promote complete
extraction, and most importantly, bioavailability!
BadKat's Highly Activated & Bioavailable, Med-Grade Cannabis Concentrate (Edible & Smokable recipes included...
similar to Phoenix Tears/RSO & BHO, but bioavailable and made with food grade/drinking alcohol. The tutorial can ALSO
be used for making edible & bioavailable oil from any BHO or other concentrates you may already have!
You may dissolve in alcohol and transfer the solution to oil, or manually agitate as-is, in warm oil, then continue
heating -just- as described to form a bioavailable solution.)
-Medical Grade Cannabis Concentrate-
BadKat's Highly Activated & Bioavailable, Med-Grade Hash Oil (starting with dry-sift hash, same as capsule recipe,
oil can also be used for cooking)
Med-Grade Hash Oil
BadKat's Highly Activated & Bioavailable, Med-Grade Canna Oil (starting with flowers/bud/trim etc)
Med-Grade Canna Oil
And that just about concludes my 'little tease' preview
I just want to thank you all, again, for being SUCH an inspirational, motivational community! Like any family, there are the
trouble-makers and black sheep, but for the most part I wouldn't have this place any other way... I love you guys!

I just want to thank you all, again, for being SUCH an inspirational, motivational community! Like any family, there are the
trouble-makers and black sheep, but for the most part I wouldn't have this place any other way... I love you guys!

informative but can you go back and add your ratios for hash to oil? ratios seem to be loosely described and are tough to figure out when combining a few paragraphs out of context.
Also, on the capsules, what size capsules are you using?

From the first post, in the "What you'll need" section
What you'll need:
- Minimum 5.0 grams sifted hash, or fine kief. Were using hash collected from the strain
Devastating Train Wreck.
- Coconut Oil, 2.5 tsp- organic and mechanically extracted are good, naturally
heat-deodorized is ok. I recommend the brands 'Now', and 'Garden of Life'.
(Remember, if a single dose turns out much too strong for you, you can dilute it
further with extra coconut oil until you achieve the desired effect. There is no rush
so feel free to fill one capsule, try it before filling the rest, and see if changes are
needed. These start out strong. Some of you will require less product per-cap.)
- Pipette to fill your caps easily by hand, or of course a fancy cap-filling machine or tray.
- Empty Gelatin Capsules Can't be veg/V-caps unless you intend on using them immediately
- Optional oils, which as a patient with digestive-absorptive difficulties, I use for enhanced
mobility and absorption of cannabinoids.. a mix of heavier to lighter oils will create an
optimal and varied 'vehicle' for cannabinoids, cbd etc., however this is the perfectionist in
me, and a single, quality coconut oil source will do just fine for most folks. I use:
- Avocado - Almond - and -Castor- oils, in addition to the coconut, at an
unmeasured rate of just a few drops each, per 2 teaspoons of coconut oil.
Just be sure they are food grade.
If you are uncertain, contact the supplier or manufacturer, or discontinue use.
- Soy Lecithin: this is where the first two recipes differ.
I made two near-exact batches to show the results side by side, one with lecithin, one
without. It's cheap, easy to find, and it absolutely enhances the effects and absorption
of cannabinoids. Further explanation below.
- Ceramic oven-safe dish
- Foil
- Empty Pill Bottles
- Desiccant sachet
- size 00 GELATIN capsules.. they must be gelatin, if you use vegetarian,
they'll disintegrate before you can use them. "
With that said, I no longer provide ratios for ANY of my recipes, because people were misinterpreting the suggested ratios and
they were regularly greening out!
Instead, people need to take their personal tolerance and the potency of their material into consideration.
If you're making oil for a specific recipe, it's as simple as thinking:
"Ok - How much do I smoke in a session, or over the course of a day if I'm a regular/heavy user, in grams - And how many servings will this recipe realistically make (or how many do I want to make)?"
You just multiply your daily usage, by the number of servings, then you add that amount herb to the amount of oil the recipe calls for. Simple as that
Tolerance varies from one patient to the next, and then there is the difference in potency from different flowers and concentrates. When working with concentrates, I do try to avoid using any more than a 1 : 1 ratio, and err on the side of being more liberal with the oil rather than with the concentrate. This way you definitely won't risk over-saturating and you won't miss out on any bioavailability. I will sometimes surpass the 1:1 ratio with kief when making my own meds, where compared to concentrates, the still-present glandular husks or 'cuticles' of the trichomes make up a fair amount of the space/weight, but again when I continued sharing the tutorials I stopped adding my own personal ratios. (To keep it easy, when I make patients their oils that they may use to cap or cook with, I try to create 0.5 - 1ml doses... this means a different ratio is used when making nearly every batch, but they know exactly how much they'll need to use every time.)
The more concentrated, the better; this way you can use your oil in a wider range of recipes. When concentrated, you can use the same batch of oil or butter in recipes that require the least amount of fat, and then when you run into a recipe that calls for a larger fat content per serving, you simply add the number of doses required to facilitate the number of servings your recipe will produce, then make up for the missing oil by doing the math, and using the fat source the recipe calls for. If you browse to the very end of the canna oil tutorial (not sure what page it's on here), it goes into even more detail on why dosing is a more personal endeavor and shouldn't be left up to a single, fixed ratio.
To add to this, modern veg caps ARE now generally capable of holding oil, especially when kept in the freezer. When the above was written those veg-caps available at the time were either more finicky or their technology has just since improved. Always make a few at a time when first trying a new brand of capsule, and keep them in a sanitary container. Even if they melt, you can still use the little oil to make a few truffles, and the dissolved capsule shouldn't even be detectable.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the positive vibes everyone!

Good info I just started reading it so I'm only a few pages in but I do alot of canna cooking so I'm trying to get some ideas and technique info. Thanks.
So I am new to making edibles and the hard candy looked like a good idea. I didn't have any hash on hand so i decided to just make some canna oil. I used 7g of dank with 7tsp of coconut oil. I ran a test trial making the candy with 7tsp of non-medicated oil, but when I poured the mixture out to dry, the oil and water separated. How am i supposed to get the oil and water/sugar mixtures to blend without all the oil just running off? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

IIts been years since I have made candy but I believe one of the keys is how hot you get it. I think you also need to continuously stir it until the end pretty much.
