Awesome thanks for the tip !i just wanted to compare to the vegan recipe I'm using. I'm wondering if there's anything I can substitute sugar for ?not big on that stuff. Or maybe a healthier substitute

It was my first time making coconut oil ABV butter and for some reason the edibles I made got me high but had a very sedative effect on me. Usually ABV edibles make me hyper and happy. It was mostly ABV from Blue Dream...I infused the oil for about 12hrs.
Has anyone ever repurposed the abv left over after cooking the coconut oil?

Very interesting as Blue Dream is my go-to for pain relief, it seems to be magic.
Do your Blue Dream edibles work on pain ? Guessing they'd be superb on pain.
I have one batch of mixed ABV infused coconut oil that smells really weird, like a smell I've never smelled before.
It's been in fridge for 6 months and may have gotten some condensation/water into the tiny glass jar. I'm torn between tossing it or trying a tiny tiny dose to see how it goes. I hate to throw out 6 months of ABV product though
It's a pretty sharp smell??
OK cool. I'll probably just toss it then.The only way I repurpose it is that after I am done straining all the clump of ABV I then make a tea with the ball of ABV
I tried drinking only 1/2 of the full cup of tea but did not feel anything significant. Next time advise just drink the entire tea in one go
does it smell rancid?? toss it! i noticed the other day i also have a collection of batches growing. i need to fully consume batches before moving on to the next!!It's a pretty sharp smell??

It's really an odd/unfamiliar smell. I can't tell if infused coconut oil went bad OR if it's that's very very strong grassy/weedy smell that I'm pretty sensitive to/ hate that smell.
I haven't tossed it yet , debating doing a small sample. Bummed if it is bad as it's from about 4 grams of good ABV and that's about 6 months worth of ABV.
I wasted about 2 inches of ABV in a mason jar because I only infused it for 2 hours and also because I added too much coconut oil. Like 4 x as much oil compared to ABV.
Then I drank 3 tsp and barely felt anything. Then an hour later added another 3 tsp and felt maybe a 2 out of 10. Plus I had been vaping so I cannot even reliably attribute even that 2 out of 10 to the edibles
Total disaster. Wasted 3 months worth of ABV. Next time will follow the instructions and cook 12 hours
titrate. try half a tsp and wait an hour.
I know this thread has BEEN dead, but i'll still post my experiments as the ideas might be helpful to someone in the future!
Batch #4
1. 30grams of sativa dominant ABV/1 cup of coconut oil
2. cook time: 14 hours
3. Used a 1L Mason jar inside the crockpot. just like my previous batch
4. added a pinch of lecithin
5. end result: FANTASTIC!
This was my first batch of ABV that i cooked myself. previous batches i usually added abv just to 'spice up' the mix. I tried just over half a tsp, results were awesome. hours of upliftment and an incredibly fulfilling sleep.
If your still throwing out your ABV, your wasting valuable medicine!!!
Glad you had positive results! It's interesting to me, I often read about how ppl think the oil tastes terrible. My oil always tastes like coconut oil with a nice herbal essence... I don't even care for coconuts in general but I would never say infused oil tastes bad in any way.... I recommend taking a tablespoon and adding to your coffee or tea. Thats my go to! Fantastic!...It does taste pretty awful
