I kief my trim in a tumbler (and make water hash from small buds)
do a 15 minute run - collect that and screen it again and smoke it
do a 45 minute run and use what I get from that from that for edibles and I also donate some of that to a patient who makes topical ointment for herself and a few other patients
I find it throwing some kief in easier than making butter the old fashioned way and dosing to be easy as well - plus it seems wasteful to use good hash or oil extraction
if you dont have a tumbler you can use a bubble bag with some dry ice and shake over a glass surface (plenty of YouTubes of that)
I use 5-6 grams of kief for a large batch (13x9) of brownies that I cut into 24 pieces and 1-2 of these is a serious dose for the uninitiated - I have various recipes I use but brownies are the go to - there is something nostalgic about a good weed brownie - lol
ghirradelli triple chocolate brownies - any other brand box brownie is shit in comparison - you need to use 2 packets for a 13 x 9 (5-6 grams)
they taste amazing
I can see decarbing for foods that are not baked or only baked for a short time like cookies - but when you bake brownies at 325 for 45 minutes there is no need to decarb
when eating my edibles from concentrate, you can NOT tell they are medicated at all. which is why I go thru as many as I do, and they are pretty potent. 1/2 muffin/brownie is all you need.
here is my weight figures per batch of cookies (12) muffins/brownies (12)
most my edibles require 1/3-1/4 cups or 1 stick butter
1.75g qwet/qwiso
1.5g bho
2.0g bubble hash
2.5-3.0g keif
these are tried and true for what ive made for 4 years. I grow gorilla glue, oh ghost train haze, strawberry cream. those are the 3 strains that go into my edibles. also a little valentine X CBD every other harvest and only the cleaning of my trimmer worth of Valentine X goes into it.
I ALWAYS decarb by concentrate before cooking it in my oil/butter. skunkfarm lists the perfect decarb as the following (293* for 8 mins). always perfect in my book.
Fair enough, but just in case you wanted to see the science and lab tests behind this method here is the article. Sorry if I offended youSkunkfarm research has been doing this most likely longer than you or I have been alive. I fully trust their tek and have been for 4+yrs.
Thanks
Fair enoughSkunkfarm does extensive testing on everything they do. I'll stick to what I know for sure.
Thanks
Unfortunately I used keif so no bubbles...It is extremely easy to monitor decarboxylation of concentrates, because the process of disassociating the COOH carboxly group, produces CO2 bubbles that are visually observable.
The decarboxylation chart on our site is an approximation, because no two batches of material are the same, but relatively close to what we've also observed at 122C/250F.
Where do I find this decarb chart?Unfortunately I used keif so no bubbles...
How much vegetable oil did your recipe call for? Enough to submerge the kif in oil and decarboxylate it?Unfortunately I used keif so no bubbles...
Using coconut oil, makes it more bioavailable...or so I've read. Sunflower oil is apparently really good for that also. I use the oven so it's hard to keep an eye on.How much vegetable oil did your recipe call for? Enough to submerge the kif in oil and decarboxylate it?
