I also have the MB2 maker and I'm very happy with it, have you tried the other settings as well? it has built it settings to make the tincture which i have not yet tried. It is a 4 hour tincture cycle and the recipe included with the maker says to use glycerin.

So to try and answer as many questions as possible yes decarboxylation is 100% needed and no it does not happen naturally. I decarb my product by setting my oven to around 240 degrees and letting it decarb for at least 30 to 45 min. The main thing during this is to make the the oven does not get...

Personally i use Extraction Experts XL tubes, they work great for me and have a website, i had mine shipped to me and was very pleased.

the main problem is you should always decarboxylate your weed before you cook with it. Decarboxylating is the process of converting THCA into THC. As many of you know raw mj contains THCA, which is then converted to THC when it is smoked. If you do not convert the THCA ahead of time then you...

Water often adds a degree of difficulty to making the oil or butter. Water and oil boil at different temperatures, so it is hard to be sure what temperature your oil actually is. Using unsalted vs salted butter has not effected it in my opinion, but i would strongly recommend only using a double...

i usually use a couple of oil to a half ounce of buds as a good ratio, be careful when using oil, make sure to keep a double broiler setup to avoid getting the oil too hot and burning it

Hey guys, i have been making a lot of edibles recently and want to try to make them using just hash or hash oil, however i normally go about making the butter by simmering my material in the butter at low heat then straining after a few hours. Does anyone have good recipes for using hash and...

How long does it take for the hash oil to dissolve into the 151? do you find this is a more effective way to make the edibles? do you decarboxylate your weed when you make the oil? I have heard that alcohol can carry a lot of thc, i often add soy lecithin to my edibles as an emulsifier to...

Do you go about the process the same way using hash oil? normal i simmer my buds in butter or oil and then strain them after a few hours, How would you go about straining hash or hash oil out? unbleached filter papers?

correct me if I'm wrong but using trim would just add extra plant material to the oil, so using a secondary solvent to winterize the oil would get rid of the plant matters and oils. This would make using the trim just as good as using whole nugs? On the whipping process have you ever fully...

I hadn't thought about the loss of flavors and terpinoids, has anyone ever made edibles using hash or hash oil? I've only made them using butter or oil.

Do you use full nugs when you do your runs or trim? how many times do you whip your oil during your purge process?

Hey everyone, I have been really trying to increase the potency and qualities of my oils. When I make weed butter I always decarboxylate my weed before to convert the THCA to THC, and I do the same when making tincture. Does anyone decarboxylate before running with butane for oil?
