Vapor Brownies (ABV Cannaoil)

Lo Boob Oscillator
I just finished up with this little project. The final simmer time was about 3 hours: it may have be a little shorter or longer...it is hard to say exactly, there was much shenanigans this evening/morning. But it did seem to be long enough. It formed a very oily slick at the top, and the smell is still filling my nostrils. In the end I did a double strain (two pieces stacked one on the other) through SS meshes and then collected the resulting plant material (there was much more than I expected: I'm sure some fine powder got through, but a lot of plant material was collected as well) into some more water, then strained this mixture through some cheesecloth, squeezing the plant material well to squeeze as much butter out as I possible could. In the end it looks like the smaller particles are settling to the bottom with the water anyway, so further straining probably wouldn't be necessary. It looks like the butter is going to be a deep, emerald green :brow:, and I'm almost 100% (just from licking the spatula, stock-pot, my fingers, etc. throughout the process) that this worked...I feel great!!! Can't wait to try it out for reals. Tuesday IS my day off...and it's election day, no? Perhaps it will be a time to celebrate...I'll post a final weight, some pictures and a trip report, when I'm able. Peace for now (and hopefully for always)!

Mmm sounds yummy, always fun stinking up the house like that. :D

Well, somehow I'm also still up along with the sun... having trouble typing here. A brownie would probably help. :D

Enjoy the butter, and your day off! Vote BHO!

Oh yeah, see CD's cannabutter thread for some good tips, too.

SA, I made some brownies with the duff I had. I used 1.5 ounces of ground up duff that looks just like yours and so far no one has reported feeling anything. I'm starting to think my version of duff is really dirt waiting to happen.

Damn, that isn't good news.

I weighed it the other day. 40 grams. :o

How vaped was your AVB partially veiled? Well cooked or still a little bit of green? You said it was from the PD/SSV, so I'm assuming the PD stuff was still relatively 'fresh'. You said that your oil was a 'emerald green color'.... so I'm thinking the latter.

I also have a good amount of stems I'd be tossing in their, and possibly some other nugs just to make sure but I am going to wait for PV's report back on it.... :D

That and I don't really have a good time when I can simmer this stuff without anyone being home who would ask 'what's cooking?' :lol:

I sifted the seeds and stems out. I did hear back from someone who had two my brownies the other night. He felt nothing until later when we hit the E bag. But then he told me he didn't feel right until 5 pm the next day. So maybe some lingering effects from the brownies? He doesn't smoke much, so it may be his lack of tolerance. I still haven't gotten feedback from one person who I will see tomorrow. Will let you now if she got anything good out of it.

sticks, from what I remember, your vaped remains are really drained. I'd imagine you'd need to use a lot more to get potent edibles. Probably just not much left to give.

Some stuff I've used, some of it's still green. :D

yupyup...I did hear back from someone who had my first batch back in July. He said he was feeling it for days. I will talk to the other girl tomorrow. But yes, my shit looks like tobacco when I am done with it. I did use 1.5 oz this last batch...that's a shitload.

Your stuff looks great. Looks like what my dealer has laying around his place (he uses a 'cano).

I was vapping quite dark ABV the other day and was surprised at the vapor I could still drag out of it and there was certianly still some effect left.

:2c: Just don't use too much butter so you get a concentrated mix!

Well, yesterday was a pretty sweet day. I took all my AVB, -- about 80 grams -- and my buddy and I made up a gigantic AVB oatmeal peanut butter cookie at his place. I took pictures of the process and will upload them later tonight. I wish we made a 'regular' one because it taste so fucking good but gets you so faded. Very successful, and my herb was well vaped.

Of course!

The cooking process. So the reason we decided on making Peanut butter cookies instead of brownies is to mask the horrid 'burnt popcorn' taste of AVB.


Your mix, and your oil. My friend lives right next to an organic grocer, so we got Canola oil at the recommendation of one of the hippies there. :brow:


Here is the AVB. It's roughly 80 grams. As you can see it's fairly well-vaped. This second picture is for a bit of perspective. If I had a clear container I would've used it, but that bowl is very deep. I was running my hands through the AVB like 'Wholey shit! It's like a sandbox' it was so much....


So we got the oil warm. I stuck my finger in it. Didn't burn, but it was pretty warm. I slowly mixed in the AVB and just like in vtac's post, carefully watched and waited for a little bit of bubbles and steam. The material simmered for about 20 minutes (it came up to temperature rather fast, but I made sure it wasn't too hot by sticking my pinky in it. I went 1 notch past 'Low' on the stovetop.)

The material simmered for about 10 more minutes (so far, 30 total) with me mixing occasionally. Because we were using deep saucepan, the material started to sink to the bottom, which seemed like the perfect indicator it was basically 'all cooked up'. I didn't get a picture of the stuff after it all fell to the bottom but you can see here where it is starting to.

The straining process. We let the oil cool on the counter and vaped a bowl through the PD. We didn't want to accidentally burn ourselves and wanted to 'calm our nerves' for the arduous process of straining.

I picked up a little strainer from home and a garlic press. Simple process, we first poured the 'sludge' from the pan into the metal strainer, gently shook it, and scooped the remaining material into the garlic press, where we squeezed the fuck out of it. The oil coming out of the plant material was ultra-gold.

After we had strained and squeezed all the AVB. We ran the stuff once more through the mesh strainer to get out particles that fell through. Squeezed that stuff and made sure the oil was cool (it was a low lukewarm).


Because we used a larger amount of oil than the recipe called for, the mixture appeared a bit too 'gloopy' for my liking, so thinking with our heads. :p We simply added in a bit of wheat flour and some Oats! It thickened right up and the smell was so tantalizing. We mixed it all up, and poured it into a giant pan, opting to make a giant cookie as oppose to 'balling up 30+ little cookies'.


It cooked for a little less than 40 minutes at 300 (peanut butter cookie recipe called for 9 @ 350f). We made sure it cooked all the way through so we wouldn't get an uncooked, doughy inside.


The enjoying process. Voila! We let her cool by the window sill and dug in. Tastes soooo fucking good, it's amazing. You wouldn't even know it's 'special'. It's almost 'pumpkin' tasting. The Oats + Peanutbutter + weed taste = heaven. I'm eating some more right now with some ice cream. It's not too rich, but it is a little bit gritty from very small AVB particles. The oats taste great and the wheat flour makes it taste more 'wholesome'.



I ate one piece (we cut it into 8ths) and was faded all night. Seriously medicated. :ko: I literally felt wasted for the longest time. My friend gobbled his entire piece in minutes. We took a certain psychedelic later that night and the combination of vaping, AVB brownies was phenomenal. The body high is amazingly intense and makes me feel so 'dreamy'. I felt like I had a warm golden aura all night.


Well, hope you enjoyed! Goes to show that even well cooked AVB still packs a punch, at least in large amounts. It was well worth it, I had been saving that AVB for a long-ass time. Time to start on batch #2. :brow:

Equal parts MJ/Oil.

It was about half of a large coffee cup full. *shrug* We didn't have a measuring cup unfortunately.

Sweet, SA! Maybe the oil method is more potent than what I did...just dumping all the ground up AVB in a mix. It doesn't make sense to me, but maybe it is.

Out to lunch
Someone gave me a couple of brownies for Christmas. Put 'em in the freezer and ate 'em last Sunday afternoon before going to a concert. Couldn't taste anything but brownie, but they did have an uplifting body effect. I could still feel some sedative after-effects up to 24 hours later.
