Decarb rosin chips?

Should I decarb my rosin chips before cooking them into oil? Or are they decarbed enough from the press? Could it hurt to further decarb them if they are partially decarbed during press?

I decarb mine, but have yet to TRULY feel edibles. I did just make yet another attempt at this though. 80g of chips pressed once with a straightener and just over 2 sticks of butter in a double boiler. I decarbed them sealed in the oven @ 245 for 30 minutes, then cooked for about 45 minutes. Washing for a second time now and will report on results.

Matt, if you have yet to TRULY feel edibles, I'm pasting this from a different thread I posted a reply in. This is it. Both of these methods will have you flying and in the first instance, as long as the decarb is done properly you'll be seeing God in colors. Good luck.



here's what i do, currently:
i don't measure it out per dosage, it's all eyeball and i pretty much have it down.
my thing is the humble but effective firecracker, and i've made certain adjustments which have amped up its potency dramatically.
first, using fresh bud, i'll decarb using the Nova unit. I'd use the stove but the neighbors in my building.. not a great idea. The Nova does a really good job without smell, so that's that.
every step in the process is of equal importance. the next step is preheating the oven for at least 15 minutes or so. I have a thermometer and that's very important especially if you're using a toaster or convection oven etc.
I want the temp at about 310 give or take but that's the general range.
while it's warming up I'll spread organic creamy peanut butter on both graham crackers, then I sprinkle the bud - i say it's about a half a joint's worth - on both crackers on top of the peanut butter.
Then I'll take a toothpick and spread the peanut butter over and around the bud so it's swallowed up by the peanut butter.
Then I'll add a layer of coconut oil on top of both, and glide it across both crackers with a butter knife.
I'll carefully join both crackers together and wrap it securely in aluminum foil - you want it tight and solid.
assuming the temp is where it should be i'll throw the firecracker into the oven for 22 or 23 minutes.
that's it - but after it's done and after it cools down i'll put it in the freezer for about an hour.

The results are amazing. always. and the coconut oil adds flavor which is nice.

For ABV, try this sometime:

Take a half cup of ABV and run it through a coffee grinder so it's powder fine.
Throw it into a mason type jar. Add 1/2 cup of organic grapeseed or canola oil.
Add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and a dash of salt as well.
Seal it up, shake it good and put it in a dark area like inside your kitchen cabinet.
Every day for 10 days open and stir it with a bamboo skewer or something equally psychedelic.
I don't recommend shaking it because no matter how tight the seal is, the oil will find a way to leak through the top. just stir it.
So ten days later you can now use this as the oil in a brownie mix.
there is no need to strain this at all; there's no discernible solid plant matter at this point.
When you bake the brownies don't bake higher than 325 even if the recipe calls for 350. just use the toothpick test to know if they're done and ready.
These brownies will be amazing and their best stored in the freezer.

The two variables that make a decarb effective are the temperature and time.

The straightener may be hot enough, but the amount of time you press is far too short.

PsychedelicSam over at GC has done extensive testing of different time/temp combos. The testing showed that 240F for 40 minutes was the best choice for a complete decarb.

If you have access to a lab you could test a rosin chip and see how much THC is there and how much THCA is present.
