Why couldn't this method be used for making infused canola oil. I was wondering if anyone has tried this yet. I mean it makes perfect sense to me. You could actually make up a jar and just let it steep for a really long time.Some people use an alternate method where they don't cook them, but just let them sit for 3-4 days. The actives will leach out into the fat of the peanut butter, and some people feel that this will create a more potent product. It's not without merit, as the active compounds do degrade with heat. But if you're willing to wait that long
As in weed smell? No, you don't have to worry about that when cooking duff. The terpenes, which produce the odour of the herb, are some of the first chemicals to go when vapourizing - it'll probably smell more like socks.Xero said:I had a thought this morning. No cook oil. I am really interested in making some brownies with my left over duff/avb. I am a little concerned about smell.
I made some with keif the other day and let them sit out in my kitchen for ~12 hours. I didn't wrap them just left them on the counter. The old cook in me really doesn't want to let food sitting out for 2 or 3 days and then eat it. The oil will be different though. I am not worried about any spoilage happening with oil. I wonder how firecrackers in the fridge would work out. This way you can let them soak/steep/ooze good stuff for days.jeffp said:i'd be interested in the results of this experiment as well. if i'm going to do firecrackers with fresh bud, how many days do you think i should let it sit before it goes bad, would storing it inside aluminum foil pouches on the window sill slightly expedite the leaching process?
Was the taste of the brownies with oil/herb mix good? If you have done just oil brownies before did they taste better or worse or no real change? Thanks for all the tips I am getting really excited to bake.illadelph said:i then put the whole oil/herb mix into the brownie mix and turned out some very potent brownies. the herb that was in the oil consisted of fresh and ABV buds and there was minimal compromise on tasted compared to the higher effect of intoxication.
Right. That's exactly how I experienced it. The straining of oil might make for a slightly more refined taste experience but it is negligible. The straining is also THE most labor intensive aspect of the project and i believe you have more to lose than to gain by going this route. Hope you enjoy....illadelph said:i used betty crocker hersheys triple chunk. the taste was barely any different compared to the ones that had gotten the straight oil and i usually use the same brand/flavor for all my brownies. i also felt like the brownies with the bud in the mix got me more wrecked.
