I ended up with a 5oz bag of larf and trimmings and am thinking about water curing an ounce or two for edibles to see if it makes my butter/oil a little less fragrant. Anyone try this technique for edibles before?
You don’t need to wait a day between plunges. I simply plunge, wait an hour, and plunge again. Repeat until nearly clear. You can do it in a few hours100%
I always (except this latest time) do a water cure before I cook with it. I use a french press and change the water daily until it runs clear.
Sandwich the buds between 2 coffee filters and tape it to a fan to dry it out.
WCing is the answer to eliminate the taste.
When you dry it in the oven after water curing, it believe it does the decarb at the same time, so I don't think doing a decarb before is neededAny one try water curing after de-carbing? It might help too, but I’ve never tried it. Thinking it would be a bit like water curing ABV.
I was wondering though if it would further decrease the taste to water cure after decarbing as well. I guess I can give it a try next time and see…When you dry it in the oven after water curing, it believe it does the decarb at the same time, so I don't think doing a decarb before is needed
That's a method I've never heard of before. Do you skim the chlorophyll off the top or something?I don’t have any experience with water curing. However, I “wash” my butter. I typically make butter with the crock pot method. After refrigerating and collecting the butter, I remelt the chunk of butter in a fresh batch of hot water give it a good stir. This cleans a lot of the green color and taste from the butter.

Hey did you try water curing your decarbed weed? I came to Google to find out and stumbled across this post haha.I was wondering though if it would further decrease the taste to water cure after decarbing as well. I guess I can give it a try next time and see…
