next time try that with about of cup of water added, leave in fridge overnight, the oil and water will separate, youll end up with a better tasting product in the end

the water will be brown and foul and the oil will be green and sweet, this works with butter as well

how do you separate oil from water? butter hardens but whatabout oil... Freeze it??

 

[motherlode]

oil hardens into a gel when you put it in the fridge, I guess you could freeze it too though

Trying to make canna-salve. Everything I have read says to place product in large pot, cover with water and add olive oil. Boil 4 six hours. Strain with cheese cloth and refrigerate over night. I did all that. How in the world do you separate the oil from the water? It did not gel. It did separate but not gel. I now have a glass bowl with water and product separater but not hardened in any way. How do I separate? Please, please. Need help.

go check out youtube for cooking with diane or cannabis infused oil,, ten imunte info on her recipe..she is really smart w./it,,,lots of exp
anyhow
recipe is

put a 1/4 lb of trim, 2 cups olive oil ( or your favorite ) and 2/1/2 cups water... and all you do is cook for 2 hrs in the crock pot ( which equals aprx 4 hrs of boiling time) and than use a grape press to strain the marijuana out ( i used a tee shirt, but its very hot and u dont get it all either ) and than put container into freezer over night, oil and water seperated and take out frozen water, and one half cup oil has one oz trim in it...
i thought it was strong, STRONG!..i used a 1/2 cup for brownies, and eat 5 outta the twelve and i was wrecked , but happy comfortable wrecked, like on mescaline high big grin n goofy high, great stuff

good luck

I've had problems getting the water to separate from the oil...freezing just seemed to make the oil worse. IMO.
But when I've made butter I have had no problem freezing it to separate them.
Dont forget the strength of the trim you use also matters.
I like to use 8 cups of ground trim to every half gallon of oil...enough that one or two brownies will get you feeling good, but not too overpowering.
