Did anyone find a way to make these shelf stable
Its because you remove the fats during winterizeation fats rot hella fast I use to do that with hard candys I found the hard candies last a while I use to use jolly ranchers melt them to hard crack temp pour in the winterized tincture mix then pour into silicone molds (its easier to melt and use already hard crack candy to achieve a really solid hard crack candy)People winterize shatter with ethanol and it supposedly lasts longer than just bho. Not sure what that would do for mixability but winterized product is supposed to be higher in thc. Maybe you could mix it in before the alcohol was fully evaporated and let it finish in the product. Just some ideas to kick around.
The uv light in a workspace is definitely a thing mushrooms labs do it to steralize air in air ducts and use it for overhead lighting to keep the workspace cleaner but it might be a bit overkill for food productd@DemonTrich I usually freeze my edibles for long term for my personal supply. i lately have had need to try and increase that to as long as possible for some patients. i never had any trouble personaly with them molding on my supply, so here i am adapting for my patients.
I added a product by Lorann Oils. Its called mold inhibitor. I made the test batch on 4/18, packaged them individualy and im still waiting to find mold on my test subjects 10 days later.
Ill post pics of the inhibitor and packaging this week.
lets keep going with this however and see what more people have to say.
do any edible makers out there use uv light wands to steralize there product / packaging / workspace? Cant hurt, right?
Vegetable Glycerin is amazing for edibles! I don’t see a lot of people using it, but adding just a bit of Vegetable Glycerin to baked goods like cookies and brownies, will help to increase the shelf life.I make mine using vegetable glycerin tincture. They've always been amazing.
I have also been making mad gummies. I was doing it easy way for awhile with pre flavour gelatin but now I am diving into the regular gelatin with more natural options in I read that potassium sorbate is a good preservative it basically comes in powder but you turn it into a liquid I also have the mould inhibitor haven't used yet but I hear great things about it indefinitely air sealing and keeping them cool I think is going to extend the shelf life cause that's when working for me so far but I am so excited to follow this page because now I have some tips and tricksHello everybody.
Ive been on a journey for the past year making edibles with all types of hash oil. Im at a point where demand is growing and i now need to increase my shelf life to make my product safer.
Any advice here will hopefully benefit alot of edible makers as i rarely hear this talked about
So what is everyone using to lengthen the shelf life on their wares.
I primarily am looking to lengthen the shelf life on my gummies So heres the basic ingredients.
Hash Oil (usually in the form of wax/shatter)
gelatin
flavoring
sugar
juice
lecithin
i decarb separately then add the hash oil to the mix at the end, mix while hot and add to molds.
i can elaborate on the recepie if needed.
I have somthing called mold inhibitor from lorann oils and also an natural antioxidant from them.
also how long are candies are keeping for people, are you using anything to control the shelf life?
Thanks in advance for all your help :)
