already vaped and olive oil

hey guys. new here. i got a few quick questions about olive oil and already vaped weed. i just added about 15 grams with enough olive oil to cover it. how long do i leave it until i can use? i figured i didnt have to heat it since i already vaped it, so i hope i did that right. i noticed that some of the vaped buds floated to the top, and theres some on the bottom, with like a 2 inch gap thats just oil. is that normal?

anything else i should know? keep in the dark? etc?

don't see why not, cooking oil is part of the brownie recipe.
Yeah, but olive oil? Typicallly, olive oil has a pretty distinctive taste unlike other cooking oils, which typically, are pretty bland.

yeah but I think the chocolate and sugar will overpower that taste... and besides they fun brownies.. they are not going to taste normal anyways.

I'd love to try this, but I'm concerned about the smell. Got people living really close by.

doesnt smell as bad when you use ABV... when you use fresh herb it can smell something fierce.

How long would it take you to collect enough ABV to make one Iwien?
I'm amazed (and a little envious) that you only use .025g a day

i made mine in a small apartment, and no smell other then brownies. the olive oil doesnt give a bad taste at all. they came out super fudgy and moise and one piece is nice and relaxing with 1 cup of well vaped weed. just a slight weed taste but nothing bad.

Too long, apparently. :uhoh: I just measured how much ABV I have after vaping for a little over a year, and I have less than a quarter of a cup.....more like an eighth of a cup.

Guess cooking is out for me and qwiso is in.

I would like to see an update for Kush in my SSV's question as well. Thinking of trying this myself. I live in a place that is not ideal for strong smells, so the soaking in olive oil idea would work great.

Tried golden dragon and it worked great. Let it sit for a day and a half. Would double that amount of time be sufficient for extra virgin olive oil... say, 4-6 days?

just made this tonight with olive oil. came out pretty good

so whats the verdict on this olive oil extraction for abv?

- it should be smell proof if its just kept at room temp for ___ hours, right?

- what about using a crockpot on the lowest setting to speed forward the rxn?

- would there be adverse effects (ex taste)?
- i would think the lowest setting on a slow cooker is much less that the
abv has already been exposed to in the vape?

- do you have to use "soy lecthin" or whatever (it was mentioned in a dif bho-olive oil extraction conversation somewhere else on fc)...?

cuz im starting to think that abv edibles might be more better way for me to recycle me herb since i gotta eat anyways...maybe even a "holy herb-garlic-chili-olive oil" for a pasta/salad dressing ingredient...
 
I cook my ABV in a crockette for 24-36 hours. Then I strain everything through a cheese cloth so I can almost ALL the pieces of herb floating. I have noticed that ABV is way weaker(for obvious reasons lol) so I usually have to double up the amount I would normally put in for normal buds. Then I just make the brownies like normal. I use a coffee grinder to get my ABV to dust otherwise I can't put in enough to make the bronwies strong enough for me(I have a very high edible tolerance).

Oh and to the guy that said he only let his golden dragon soak for a day lol. I think they say to do it minimum of 6 months?

I would suggest NOT heating the oil if you are using olive oil. Olive oil breaks down into harmful trans acids at a very low temp. It's really best for non-cooking stuff, like salad dressing, or for dressing Italian dishes after they come off the heat.

Coconut oil, in my opinion, is the best oil for making medibles. Coconut oil is saturated, which means it can handle a lot of heat, or heat for a long time, without any breaking down. No trans fats. As a saturated fat, it can soak up a lot of the compounds in cannabis, which are fat soluble. Using a crockpot on low or warm will speed up the process. I'd give it overnight, anyway, for ABV. Maybe a few hours on High/then a day on Low for using fresh herb. With fresh, I'd do the whole water/oil thing, then chill and let separate - like one does for canna butter.

then i may just use the olive oil method without the heat...although, ive heated olive oil in foods many times before & i think its a pretty commonly used oil for cooking with heat...

i try to stick with unsaturated fats for health purposes (otherwise i would have used the butter extract)...

thanks for the info.

Lo and Behold! The transformative power of Vapor.
There seems to be a wide amount of study as to what may make olive oil more harmful/less beneficial at cooking temps. What If I ground all my ABV and have it set in a crock pot at a set temp enough to infuse, but not enough to cook? What might be that range? Would the heat of the oil become concentrated? What would cause too much breakdown of the ABV?

I like Olive oil as a food in general and find other foods easier to digest with it. Would like to drizzle some homemade ABV popcorn oil to go on a freshly made kettle of popcorn and take in a movie. Or maybe even use it externally.:science:
