Hi - can I ask some advice on how to make flower into an edible? I’ve got about 18g of flower and have been advised to lay off the vape side of things. I don’t want to waste it so want to make it edible.
I read a post about making a chocolate butter and like the sound of that.
My wife is not happy about me cooking the flower and making the house stink. Would it work if I just ground it fine and mixed it in? if I heated it up in the venty and then tipped it out and collected it then put it in the butter would that work? If would take a while but would keep the peace 😊. Any other ways to consume flower?
Thanks
 
Well yeah, 18g would stink you up for sure, but not for too long. I usually do 3g at once or maybe 6g, and unless the kitchen back door stays open, it's pretty pungent. I do 29 minutes on 120 degrees, and it clears out in like 5 mins. But you could indeed simulate a vape, and do 5 mins on 180, or indeed just use a vape.

If you mixed it in raw, without decarboxylation (the discussed preheat) , it still kind of works but you lose a lot of potency and it will act slower, more unexpectedly, harder to time.
 
I think I’ll try it in a 3g portion and see what it is like - thanks for the input 👍
Putting it through the venty would take for ever I reckon
 
If I decarb it, then mix it in to chocolate and butter, then stir it in and put it in the fridge…do I eat it as I would nutella? A spoon at a time?

Do I need to grind the flower before I put it into the oven?
 
i measure it in a way so it's 1g worth of bud in the choc a day, eaten in 3-4 portions

Also if you put it in choc and the fridge (as you should), it will harden. You won't be eating with a spoon. Get a choc bar silicone template from ebay for £2, and pour it into that. About 25g butter and 55g fatty dark choc for me.

I made the chocolate as you described - I only used 1.5g of leaf with 100g chocolate. Glad I scaled it back - the effects were very deep! I’m grateful for the pointers 👍. The 2nd time I cut one of them in half and it was still effective. Only downside I have is that it tastes absolutely foul - probably worse thing I’ve ever eaten! I will treat it like a bush tucker trial - is there any alternative to chocolate that will help ? Or a strategy to get it down me 😊😊
Thanks again
 
You can use anything that's fatty, you can just put it in a few spoons of yoghurt I guess, I never tried that myself.

I folded and baked into a slice of cheese tho once, if that works better for you.
 
Ah - so I could just keep the decarbed leaf and combine that with something to get it down me?
Have to admit , it would be a close run thing whether i’d prefer the chocolates or a dog shit sandwich 😂
The outcome is much preferred though ….
Would it need to be yogurt with a decent amount of fat content?
 
Last night, I cut one of the chocolates up with a knife into pillsized pieces then swallowed them whole with water …I’m a wuss I know 😊😊

Nah it's whatever is needed to make it work for you in your situation. Don't put yourself down, good if you can find something that works and is comfortable 💚

So do you make the butter or just put the abv straight in
 
So 55g choc
25 butter
N then how much AVB?

Btw I'll share recipe later on but I decided to make some medicated chocolate fudge with the medicated butter

It made 18 large servings

Those large servings scared me, so I cut them into quarters


Id say 3 a day spread out would keep you away from the flower TBF
 
i use about 3g-3.5g for that amount, that's 3 days worth for me, dosed evenly
ok so 3.5g of vaped bud
straight into a 55/25g mix of choc and butter
i'll give it a go

i made the butter with 28g to 250g of butter

filtered it all out and then made the fudge

the fudge was
1 can of condensed milk
200g choc
1/3 cup canna butter

stir till combined on low heat, bang in a tray and cool
 
Coconut oil is very good if you are looking to make something you can use in various foods. Basically throw a few tablespoons in a pan and heat it up slowly. Once it's hot, throw your flower in and stir a lot for 5-10 mins, then pour it into a clean jar and let it cool. It should go hard again. Then if you make anything, like brownies, flapjack, etc, then throw a teaspoon or two in the mix. I find coconut oil to be much more stable than butter and less likely to go rancid, but if you are worried about butter or any oil going off, you could freeze it.

I prefer tablet over fudge. My recipe goes something like this.

Half a can of condensed milk
A small cup of sugar
A lump of butter (I tend to use about a quarter of block)
A teaspoon of coconut oil
A teaspoon of ginger
AVB or flower of whatever amount you want (I think 1-2g is more than enough)

Heat the butter, coconut oil/fat and ginger in a pan until hot. Then add the flower and/or AVB and stir for 5-10 mins. Then add the condensed milk and sugar. Stir vigorously until the mixture has a dark brown colour and if you drop it on a spoon it turns hard and breaks easily. Pour and scrape out pan on to a tray covered in greaseproof paper and put somewhere to cool. one harder you can score it or just wait for it to fully cool and break it up into chunks.

I'd just say be careful with how much you use, especially if you prefer more energetic strains that are heavily Sativa. The chances of a whitey increase quite steeply. Indica strains are good and your inevitable outcome is sleep. But Sativas can be the devil. A few years back i was gifted some Blueberry Haze and I proceeded to make some fudge with it and I used very little flower in it and the first piece I ate was somewhere on the border between sanity and insanity. Just one small piece. I literally saw walls bleed and faces morph out of them. It was super uncomfortable for maybe 5 hours. Of course me being a complete idiot did it again several times, but by the fifth week I could tolerate it a lot better and OEV's were less and not so demonic. My friend told me that stuff was some of the strongest he'd ever had. He is a pro in comparison to me, like Cheech Marin level and he said it put him on his ass. He couldn't believe I was doing edibles from it, well exact words were "you are a maniac".
