Do you decarb your MJ before simmering it. Not sure how it works with oil but with butter I put it in the fridge til the butter gets cold and separates from the water. Lachtin (sp) is a key ingredient all so as far as helping your metabolism break down and process the MJ. Gets you higher. Thanx fumble.Smart idea using the jar in the water. Last time I made oil I did water, oil, and trim in the crock pot. Then I had to strain and seperate the oil from the water. I made a huge mess. Shit came out strong though.
