Need help with edibles! Please I've wasted too much !

It depends on what you are making, really. My caramel apple gooey cakes require oil, so I use canola. Most of the baked things I make require butter. I searched out recipes that use a cup of butter. For the coconut oil, I use that in the hash oil process, because it will be a solid at room temperature - the oil will be used in capsules, chocolates, lip balms, and butterscotch. And it is definitely more healthy for you. The lady at the 'health food store' said that if you switch over to that for all your cooking, you will lose weight. Hmmm. She didn't look like she used it.

you prefer the freezer over the fridge for any reason?

yeah we have an outside freezer with more space then the inside fridge.. not to mention wifey hates my MMJ being "all over the house"
I never realized how much of a PITA using MMJ was going to be... not that it's gonna make me stop but... MMJ can be a hassle!

Honestly, I can't tell the dif either, but for the sake of consistency, I follow the same process for everything. If I don't, I get all boggled in da brain. I already have that problem, no need to add to it lol.

I am actually in the process of decarbing right now. I am making hash oil to go into capsules, candy and lip balm

eliminate the step... once the MMJ gets to about 130-150 it will breakdown. just saving ya some time..lol

when you decarb how large of batches do you go about to do?

I hated the decarbing process since I was using 2-4 oz MMJ when making large a few batches of oil..


just ordered 2000 caps on ebay 2 days ago.. (saw someone was selling 500 - 00 caps for 5.00 + ship) and 1000 for 7.00 + ship.. almost ordered from this guy as it was about 3$ cheaper total but hate those that charge lower prices on ebay but hit ya with high shipping...

I think with the decarb it also depends on how old or fresh the stuff you are using is. If you are using fresh, then yes, definitely decarb. Most of the stuff I work with is a year old, so pretty well decarbed already. The DIE I decarb for the coconut oil extraction is way dif than say the oz of bud you would grind up to use for butter. After it has decarbed, it is pretty well tacked together. This is the point where I have to take a credit card and break it up and play with it Then I will add the lecithin and coconut oil and further process it. I get my capsules from Elliot's Health Food store. I forget how much they were for the 00 size, but it wasn't too much - unless they are out of the pre-packaged ones and all they have are the ones in the bin that the snotty little girl with acne and BO will give you an attitude and your caps, then they are more expensive - both in money and aggravation

LOL...going to medicate now
