Extraction Edibles and trim question

[Filthy_Casual]

About 1oz of trim into a batch of Betty Crocker chocolate chip
Bonus shot of the flower the trim comes from and what some of the little bud I didn’t want to trim looks like.

I wanna make brownies today. I have a box of Ghirardelli mix. It calls for 1/4 cup of veg oil. I have plenty of coca butter and a 14 oz jar of cold pressed virgin coconut oil.
If I just want to make enough decarbed dry ice shake hash oil for this batch, how much should I weigh out for a single batch? I guess I can test a ratio on this batch and adjust from there.

I have some stick butter molds. If I want to make up some canna butter, should I mix in the lecithin in after the decarb session while it's still warm and a liquid or during the decarb?

My neighbors have graciously volunteered to be guinea pigs for my test!

Potency of hash oil say 60% or any number you choose. 600mg thc per gram. Pontency per serving of brownie 12 x 50mg =600mg. 20 x30mg =600mg

I tend to process everything into FECO for edibles. I also will tumble trim of the kief. It is easier and you get very little weed flavor. I do add lecithin to chocolate but not gummies and cannot feel the difference.
20 years ago I would use trim and smalls and make oil. Never decarbed separately or added lecithin.
I was taught to start to get oil not butter up to 200f then every 5 minutes raise temp 10 degrees till you reached 300 degrees. So it was decarbed in the oil.
Turn off and let cool then strain. I was told that the different cannabinoids would be released at different temps like a herbal vaporizer.
It always worked and I had a bad reputation for strong edibles.

Yeah edibles are a fucking joke every time I have bought them at a dispensary they never do shit to me. But when I make them watch the fuck out (mist of the time!!) I have scared more than myself with my edibles. Haha. I gave my grandpa a brownie this past year. He ate half of it and he dont smoke or eat weed ever but he wanted to try an edible so I brought him one. I fucked his world up too. Haha my uncle thought it was gonna kill Papa. My gramps was glad he only ate half he said. That batch I made wasnt potent to me and didnt get me high but it fucked his world up that night. Some batches of my edibles come out so potent and knock me on my ass. Other times they are way less potent and I dont understand what I do wrong sometimes when they're not strong. I am trying to develop a technique so that the oil or butter only comes out strong and potent but I haven't mastered it yet. Its hit or miss sometimes. But imma make some budder today and probably sum brownies tonight.

I've read this several times since you posted it and it just cracks me up. It also is completely relatable as it has happened to me. I have no way to determine how strong my edibles are. Sometimes I get high, sometimes I get scary stoned.

Well, my brownies I made turned out pretty damn good! I just decarbed my dry ice shake in cocca butter in the amount the box called for. I used a damn good box brownie mix and added an extra egg.
Damn good long lasting relaxing body high with a pretty even head high with no couch lock, but I'm ready to sleep at the 'normal' time.....and sleep is fantastic!
I gave my neighbor a couple and they loved the brownies, my first ever, and loved the high.

Next thing is making chocolates!!
