No it's not a major error with oil.. Been doing it this way for 15 years.. Butter needs water to keep it from burning and wash it.. Oil doesn't!Are you guys just cooking oil and cannabis in the pot, or are you adding water? If you aren't adding water, I think that's a major error.
IMO you want to use water either way. I don't like to use butter myself, I use coconut oil. You really can't regulate the temps well without water, but with it there is a nice buffer and it puts your temps in the ideal range without even having to think about it. I like to use leaf for oil, because what else am I going to do with it? I'll use around a pound of leaf to 16 oz of oil, and use a gallon or so of water as a buffer. It's like turning garbage into gold.No it's not a major error with oil.. Been doing it this way for 15 years.. Butter needs water to keep it from burning and wash it.. Oil doesn't!
I see the difference.. I do much larger batches, 64oz Oil, 4oz bud.. I think the volume of oil may buffer itself?IMO you want to use water either way.

Hi. I just did the insta pot In a mason jar you mix the oil and dope. There are many good webpages that show how. There is also lots of debate on how long and temps. I think it only was on for 40 min is all you need.
One smart thing I did was: at the end you are left with the big blob of scalding hot oil and dope, you can’t sqweeze it with your hands to get the excess dooper out, so I pour some boiling water over it and it leaches out a bit more oil. Then put it in the fridge and the oil will harden and float on top. To separate it.
