I think the little bit of alcohol that’s in there will bake out!No plans on cooking out the alcohol in the tincture on the stove and bring on the wrath of Kahn with the smell.
So just mix the tincture in the oil and let it sit? How long?
I do like rum cake btw, maybe some day juice one of those.
So each recipe calls for the same amount of oil, but you want to split in half each way. From what you self report, you don't use tons of THC on a daily basis. (Clipping after 1/3 of a joint) So 50mg per slice of cake or brownie will be fine for you. In fact you would probably get reasonably high from 1/2 that. That depends largely on your unique biological circumstances.For the Brownies I have Betty Crocker mix - 3Tablespoons of water, 1/2 cup of oil, 2 eggs.
Plan to do half batch with weed, the other plain. Maybe use two bread loaf pans.
For cake mix I have Duncan Hines Devils Food - 1 cup water, 1/2 cup of oil, 3 large eggs. Again will split half and half. Can use a half height cake pan, or cupcakes. If we have munchies after we have some plain stock
Will be using EVO for oil. Same color as tincture
That's actually a myth. It takes hours to cook alcohol out of a food mixture. Studies have been done that show after 30 minutes of cooking, 85% of the alcohol still remains in the food. It takes 3.5-4 hours to remove 95% of the alcohol.I think the little bit of alcohol that’s in there will bake out!

But you can just make 1/2 cup of canna-oil with your EVO, and split it 1/4 cup to each recipe. If you do that, you will just need to cut your canna-brownies and canna-cake into the same number of servings. If, on the other hand, you want to cut your brownies into 4 pieces, but your cake into 6 slices, you will need to make 2 different strength canna-oils to maintain the same dose per serving. (My laziness would prevent that! But you do you)
The formula ends up:
Then, yes, it is as simple as combining the oil and the tincture in a bowl or pan and leaving it exposed to the open air. In this case. the greater the surface area exposed, the better. As it will speed up evaporation. But DO make sure that the de-carbed weed doesn't get outside the oil and stuck to the pan. As for an exact time, all that I can say for certain is a day or less. It depends on environmental factors such as surface area, ambient temp and relative humidity. If you live in a rain forest it will take longer than if you live in the desert.
- (Number of servings per dish) x (number of mg per serving) = total number of mg needed
- (total number of mg needed) / (number of mg/ml of tincture) = ml of tincture needed
To be 100% positive, you would really need to measure the specific gravity of the EVO, and calculate what the specific gravity of EVO with de-carbed weed added to it would be, and then measure for that number. But, we're making a damn cake, not trying to land on the moon, so I would say that when the canna-oil is returned back to pretty much the same viscosity as it was in the bottle, you are good to go.
Just stir the oil and tincture mixture every couple of hours or so. It's not some critical timer based thing. In order to make things go even faster, I would mix all the tincture that you need with 1/4 cup oil. Then, when you are satisfied that it's been properly evaporated, add the other 1/4 cup oil and mix it all together really well. Then split it into (2) 1/4 cup portions and you are good to go.
So, as an example, let's say that you decide on 50mg/brownie/slice of cake, and that you will yield 6 portions of "canna" each. 50mg x 6 portions = 300mg/ recipe. Since you are making 2 recipes, that is a total of 600mg THC needed. Your tincture should be somewhere near 8.33mg/ml so: 600mg / 8.3mg/ml = 72.29ml of tincture. That equates to roughly 5 Tbsp of tincture. (4.8 to be exact)
As I said above, I would mix that into 1/4 cup EVO, and then let it evaporate. Then I would add the other 1/4 cup EVO, and mix well. And split it back into (2) 1/4 cup portions. That, at least is, close enough for government work!
I too like rum cake. My problems with cake are so many people make them too dry. That's not really an issue when you add some rum. You could either use canna-oil in the cake, or make a tincture with 151 Bacardi, and use that, or do both! It would be one hell of a dessert!
If you end up making the brownies, then your numbers look good. Going with the 25mg/ serving seems like a reasonable idea. You aren't a party hard stoner that will struggle to catch a buzz off of a smaller dose. I'm not anymore either. 30 years ago, yeah, but today I just like to be mellow.So we are going to do just the Brownie bake for now. Half batch of weed with 8 servings(small size mini brownies).
So for 1/4 cup of oil and go with Stans 8mg/mL tincture yield estimate:
formula
1. 25mg/serving x8 small servings
- (Number of servings per dish) x (number of mg per serving) = total number of mg needed
- (total number of mg needed) / (number of mg/ml of tincture) = ml of tincture needed
2. 200mg total / 8mg/mL = 25ML tincture
If Stan is right I get 25mg mini brownies. If it’s like OPs “decarb failed” or infusion confusion it’s maybe half that. Seems safe and can eat 2 brownies if needed.
So one BIG glaring comparison is I need 25ML/8 = 3.125mL of baked tinture juice to equal 1mL of dropper juice in a mixed drink (ie your KoolAid) to get the same effect. Or said another way get toasted 25x on the same amount not baking.
If so might us well down the kool aid and eat plain brownies, no?
Refrigerated.Oh yeah, how should I be storing these amber bottles. I have the 2oz right now. A locked case? Room temp or refrigerated?
Well, everclear is a solvent chemically, and your eyes are covered in aqueous solution. I suppose that some miniscule amount of alcohol vapor would pass the blood barrier, but not enough to get you drunk. You CAN get drunk from inhaling heated alcohol, but you need more like a nebulizer machine than a simple whiff. But it can be an irritant.Question about strength. The first bottle filled was mostly clear green fluid. The remaining at the bottom of the Ongrok pot went into the second bottle and some visible particles that was on the bottom, just a little layer.
I just took the 25ML for the oil and mixed it in the measuring cup. Had it near me and stirring occasionally. Smelled and after awhile eyes got irritated.
So is this bottle with more particles substantially stronger? Can you get medicated just on the odor?
I moved the concoction downstairs. Wife I guess must have for a wifi of it in the other room “Are you cooking downstairs again?”
"Joe Bribem" (LMAO) I love it! Many people of his generation are far too indoctrinated into believing that marijuana is a dangerous drug. Then, when you consider his career as a politician, he can't really give up on the war on drugs. Regardless of how it has proved to be an unmitigated failure, this country has invested far too much time into hiring all those drug cops, judges, and prisons to give it up now. With the advent of for profit prisons, municipalities are fined millions of dollar for NOT keeping the cells filled with inmates. Not to mention all the money the government makes from selling military weapons to nations in order to fight drug growers and manufacturers. And then there are the powerful pharmaceutical lobbyists. NONE of the (legal) drug companies want you to be able to grow or buy something for which they don't hold the patent. Don't expect the government to reverse course any time soon.@PianoStan what so you recommend for a Pain Killer strain and CBD THC combo using the tinctures?
Now that doctors and powers that be are kicking people in chronic back pain off Vicadin need a safe alternative and not regulated at the whims of political hacks. Joe Bribem included with his new plan to reschedule MJ still with a permission slip required.
Saw some videos with company reps selling their juice concoctions touting 10:1 ration with additional mentions of CBG and CBN whatever those are? Like TV stations now CBS, ABC, NBC lol
The seed bank only lists like low medium high doe CBD content.
I make infused oil with both Sativa, Indica, autos, hybrids etc. (Always use buds)I do have some CBD flower and some other mostly mixed Indica/Sativa strains. I guess I could try cooking a mix but don’t have a lot of pure Indica left but at 10:1 ratio wouldn’t need much.
Do you find Sativa strains can trip anxiety and heart racing in people?
Your tincture is used for pain and is all/mostly thc content?
While a lot of people swear by the conventional Sativa vs. Indica beliefs, including me; from what I have read on the marijuana plant those beliefs aren't exactly accurate. The energy vs. sedation effect apparently has its chemical origins in the terpene profile of the plant. There is another chemical profile as well, but I can't remember its exact name. That's why some Indicas produce euphoria, and some Sativas are relaxing. It is probably just that Sativas are genetically pre-disposed to having certain terpenes, while Indicas more commonly contain others.I do have some CBD flower and some other mostly mixed Indica/Sativa strains. I guess I could try cooking a mix but don’t have a lot of pure Indica left but at 10:1 ratio wouldn’t need much.
Do you find Sativa strains can trip anxiety and heart racing in people?
Your tincture is used for pain and is all/mostly thc content?
Yes. Terpenes start to cook at around 70F (no, I didn't forget the "1" lol). So the process of infusing oil/butter/tincture pretty much wipes them out.I make infused oil with both Sativa, Indica, autos, hybrids etc. (Always use buds)
I believe infusing and ingesting all of them comes out to the same effect. None of my consumers ever ask or say some feel different than others.
I remember that you and your wife had a bet about which worked better, but there are a few problems with this plan.OK I have CBD flower that has 17%CBD and 0.5% THC a 34:1 ratio. And NL Indica that’s about 15% thx.
So would like to make 10:1 ratio and decarb some for the 2nd half of that brownie mix (CBD Med brownies) and some for a tincture.
But for this CBD brownie mix Is like to just do ground up decarb flower old school. 8 Mini brownies in the loaf pan which is about 1/2 a 16x9 pan. What do I need to do the brownies?
Assuming same 25mg per serving with 22.5mg of CBD and 2.5mg of NL. 25mgx8=200mg total
So CBD gives 170mg/Gm CBD and 5mg/gm THC
NL gives 150mg/gm
So I come up with 1.06 gram of CBD flower for 90%, and 100mg of NL for 10%.
90% of the 200mg total for CBD is 180mg cbd needed
10% of the 200mg total for NL is 20mg thx needed - 100mg of NL to get to 15mg and then add the thx for the CBD flower which would be about 5mg to get the 20mg thx total for the batch.
So 1.6gm CBD flower, 100mg of NL flower does the Half batch? Do I have this right?
Should the weight stay the same after decarb if I put the above measure in the oven?
Mg/ serving size you thing is good?
I thing your math is wrong on the NL, should be 100mg (0.100gram) of Bud for the 10% of 150mg/gram (15%thc). So the NL contributes 15mg thc to go with the 5mg from the CBD for 20mg total thx in the 10:1 Med Brownies.I remember that you and your wife had a bet about which worked better, but there are a few problems with this plan.
To get what you are looking for, it is 1.06 grams CBD, and 1.3 grams of NL.
But if you just go old school, and toss it into the batter, you don't have any control over where in the mix the NL ends up, and where the CBD goes.
Also, it will have SOME level of decarbing happening, but you will have no control over how much or where in the pan is properly decarbed. Some brownies might have a good effect, and some might be totally normal.
If you want to win the bet, this is where you do it! Just go old school exactly as you have planned in the quoted post.
You could try an experiment since you want to go old school. You could just toss the weed, and the oil for the mix into the Ongrok machine, and hit the "butter" button. And then in 2 hours you will have pulverized canna-oil, and the strains will be properly mixed for uniformity and maximum absorption. It would test whether or not the Ongrok machine decarbs the weed even though the company says that it doesn't. Worst case scenario is that it doesn't, and you are back to decarbing the old school way, in the mix, in the oven.
However, if you want the best possible results, you will need to decarb separate from the batter.
