Question About Cooking With Rosin

Hello everyone,

I ordered some Doctor Seedsman seeds and am interested in making some CBD edibles. I tried making cannabutter in the past. I found the process to be lengthy and ended up with lackluster results. Part of the problem was I didn't decarboxylate the flower first. If making cookies, I am wondering if it might be possible to press the flower into rosin (eg. with the hair straightener method) and add a gram or two directly to the mixing bowl without decarbing. My thinking is that since you need heat to press the rosin, it might be possible to skip the decarboxylation process. Has anybody tried this before? Thank you for your time.

Nope, still need to decarb. Do it in a sealed container

You still need to decarb and you still need to infuse the rosin into some kind of oil or else it will not mix into your cookie dough

I figured it wouldn't be so so simple. I do think I'll try rosin anyway to avoid needing to deal with a bunch of plant material. Supposedly there are substances people add to rosin recipes to keep the concentrate from sticking to the teeth. Anyhow, thanks for the information guys!

coconut oil - use it in my edibles

Pick up a silicone box like the one that comes with the magical butter machine

Set your oven at 240f (115c) and put your cannabis in the silicone box and decarb for 40 minutes
Use an oven thermometer to check the accuracy of your ovens temps
The decarb is important and makes all the difference in your edibles
As for the length of the process, it can be a bit much but I turn out 4-6 weeks of oils and syrups for a day's work after decarb and 24 hours in the freezer
