Update. I received a recommendation for a slow cooker that will heat to 240F and hold the temp for a set time. It's the Insta Pot. Very highly rated and popular.
So I went to Amazon and looked it up. Glowing reviews. I asked if it would heat liquid to 240 and hold the temp. Yes. One...
To get back to basics, since I'm a decarb novice and can't converse with experts, I'm looking for advice on:
I dissolved a gram of sticky hash in 190 proof alcohol in a mason jar, then let the alcohol evaporate. What's left is a gooey layer of hash at the bottom.
But it's not decarbed. So I...
Thanks. Apparently there's quite a learning curve to this topic.
My thought about watching the CO2 bubbles is that it would be a lot easier to tell when the decarbing is complete.
It would take a lot of the guesswork out of the process. For example if you decarb in an oven, you can't see the...
Really. You need to ingest a lot of saturated fat for an edible to get you high. That's very bad.
Which is why I'm going to mostly make timctures, while eating brownies less often. Just put a nice set of brownies in the freezer for a weekend treat or two only.
This batch should easily...
Munched a small corner of my brownies yesterday. It worked! Damn, they were potent.
My first decarb worked! After 26 miles on my bike in the morning, those munchies had me really relaxed the rest of the day.
I'd attach a pic but don't see a way to do so on my phone. Looks like it will...
Progress report update 03.03.23.
My slow cooker turned out to be a crock, heating to a maximum temp of only 180F. I just dropped it off at UPS to return to Amazon.
I may have under-decarbed my flower a couple weeks ago at 117F to 131F for only 30 minutes (I have a crappy oven that can't hold...
A few ways. First I tried all three modes at least 3 times, and the temp arrows always maxed out at 180F. Each time.
Then I looked at the owner's manual online, where there's a chart of temps for cooking certain things. The maximum listed was 180F.
I also looked at the instructions that...
So I bought a highly rated "Hamilton Beach Portable Set & Forget 6 Quart slow cooker. Very simple controls, what could go wrong?
I set it up for a trial run to heat vegetable oil to 240F. Pushed the buttons on the clearly laid out panel, went to set the temp, and ...
The thing only heats up...
