Dude, if those don't do it for you, you may as well quit pot altogether.......lol! I just cooked thirty grams of Blue Dragon bud in just enough oil to cover the material. After straining I refrigerated it for 3 days. Then I cooked another 10 grams of bud in it. They have some real kick let me tell ya.......... yours should be that strong or stronger!

Thank You for the reply it has been in the fridge now for 2 days but im kinda questioning myself on the process ..peace bro
 
I have no valid answer as to why refrigerating the oil would make it more potent, however, it seems that way when I take a test capsule. It may just be me......... It may be totally unnecessary.

I trust your process.and besides,there is more than I'll use in a year unless I make some edibles with it,so it will stay in the fridge unless I need to make it more potent..I had 3 testers take one and one tester take 2..the reports are coming in that one pill after an hour is giving a head high and "the giggles" ,I told him take another and call me in the morninh(kidding) he did take another tho...I'm doing some fencing today so will not be able to report..
 
I'm back with info from the test panel of 5 people,the subjects covered a broad range from casual smoker to heavy stoner...3 women and 2 men.
Subject 1) took capsule last night while drinking ,info invalid...bummer!!!
Subject 2) moderate smoker,1 capsule,"heavy body stone,felt like I smoked all day "
Subject 3) heavy smoker,2 capsules from start,"heavy body stone" ,"spent day trying to watch tv" "more sleep than tv"
Subject 4)heavy smoker, started with 1 capsule,
"Mild head high and moderate body stone and giggles" took 2nd cap 1 hour after first cap "body stone and head high increased to the point of being tipsy"
Subject 5) moderate smoker," spent the better part of the day in and out of consciousness"" half of
A capsule would be sufficient for me"
I'm still trying for a one and ur done type potency so I will cook another ounce into the oil once I can get the temperature at a steady 190,maybe crockpot?? I dunno.I still have to take the capsules for myself but this initial info brings better news than my first attempt..peace out everyone ,hope this info helps out ...
 
The temp being exact during the cook is no so important as is keeping it below 220F where decarb starts accelerating. at 180-200F decarb would take about 10-12 hours, possibly more, I don't have the exact curve. By pre-decarbing in the oven, your eliminating all that cook time. Hell, an hour may likely be long enough! I have played with a range of cook times, and 2 hours seems to be the peak extraction time, cooking much longer doesn't seem to increase potency. Likely by two hours, the thc and cannabinoids have all been extracted.

Try recooking with 1/2 an ounce, believe me, a 50% increase from the caps you just made will be plenty! Of course, if you make a batch thats too strong, you just add some oil to it!

I'll def give that a try since I have the material to do it ,maybe with an indica heavy strain this time.i could have used the relaxation of a few caps after getting beat up by the auger from doing my fence project but then I prolly wouldn't be at work today..hmmm that might not have been a bad thing!! I'll make some more samples of them as is and find a new/different test panel..peace
 
Hey @pop22 are you around? I have a question,do the caps or jar of oil have to stay refrigerated after cooking the canna into it/will the canna thats cooked in to the coconut oil cause it to go rancid/spoil if its not kept refrigerated?? Thank you for your response
 
I refrigerate mine, infact I keep the in the freezer. But I use coconut oil for topical too and It doesn't seem to spoil. I leave it out next to my desk to keep it liquid.
