Hello all. It’s been a while... I have a question for anybody who can answer... I recently made a tincture in my magical butter machine. I used 188 proof alcohol (global 94) and I plan on making gummies. I did an 8 hr run at 130f and strained everything. I used 3 oz of think big and 3 cups of alcohol. The recipe I have for the gummies says to take the tincture and evaporate the excess alcohol in a sauce pan at low heat- I know many also do this with a mason jar with no lid in boiling water and then blah blah blah... my question is, before I do that am I ok taking the tincture orally without further reducing the tincture? Should I expect it to have a decent effect? Just asking cuz I’m not in the mood to do anything now and I want to check potency of what I’ve got so far. I took a 1ml dropper (more like 85% of a dropper)almost an hr ago... just curious if I’m on for a treat or if I really need to do the additional step of boiling off alcohol to get an idea...

I tried to do a larger batch of tincture also and didn't get it to reduce by half volume in the amount of time I had. If you can reduce it by half volume it will be more concentrated to just use as an oral tinc. If not you might need to double dose 2ml to get some more enhanced effects. But see how this one goes for now with the 1ml dose.

Thanks buddy. I’m going to wait another 30 mins. If I’m not nicely elevated I’ll take another dropper and a half! Lol

It's possible you haven't taken enough yet...I take 2ml for starters and that is after evaporation
