Yeah you should be able to. One thing I'd suggest (you're doing it on the stove, right?) get a little pyrex bowl and put your oil in that, then float that in enough water so the bottom of the bowl isn't touching the bottom of the pot. Acts as a double boiler and far less likely to burn/scorch your stuff. I prefer the crock pot myself but less temp control there. There are some guys that "thermal" cycle their oils and claim it gets stronger every time. Letting the oil cool, then warming it again for a few hours. Experiment experiment lol.
