[MEGA] Cooking with Cannabis

does cannabis need to be heated to a specific temperature before it can be extracted into fat?

i notice many recipes reccomend high heat then low simmering. will i get results from just long, low simmering, or is there a "sweet spot" before thc can be extracted into the butter -- like, for example, does it have to get hot enough for the thc to convert into liquid?

the specific scenario i'm talking about it straight butter and weed -- not the boiling method. (i figure the butter will have quicker results, since the weed and lipids stay in constant contact, and aren't storming around in water)

edit:

i dunno about a lower-bound temperature, but there's definitely an upper-bound temperature. i reccomend the boiling method if anyone else is pondering cannabutter. heat control proved difficult with only butter and the pan. I ended up cooking OUT the thc, instead of cooking it into the butter. the butter did not burn, but the pieces of weed did.

but i did have success with just putting powdered bud between slices of cheddar and microwaving that in a tortilla for like 4 minutes. imo, the oral high is more enjoyable. the peak is like twice as long.

If i was going to put some bud into one box of brownie mix (the stuff where you basically add water + egg + butter + the brownie powder), how much bud would i need? One tray of brownies in other words.

Me and my mates would probably buy a 50 or a q (50 = 3 - 3.5 grams, q = quarter oz = roughly 7 gramsish?)

Basically, how many grams of hydro bud is needed to get nicely high off 1 tray of brownies.

i messed up on the boiling part. im pretty sure i just set the stove to high. do you only get the water hot enough to just boil? like medium temp? for 30 min?
 
when I make weed brownies I jsut cook the cannabis in 1 cup of vegetable oil per oz of bud, on a light simmer for about 25 minutes and then it is all ready, just follow the directions on the brownie box and voila.
 
the firecracker method also works with bread, dipped in honey
baked at 150C for 25mins. this was my first attempt at canna-cooking.
bread had perfect uniform toast. and some honey was warmed up and dipped my sandwhich in it.

It actually tastes better than a regualr PB & honey sandwich :).
 
I use to use firecracker method a lot now I can't eat one without dry reaching and almost chucking.

Does anyone know another simple and quick method? like can you say use nutella instead of peanut butter?

Also when you cook a firecracker, can you put it in a microwave instead?
 
just a quikk one as i noticed this thread hasnt really moved into much more than brownies n firecrackers n differentiations in butter/oil extractions....lol(maybe just a stoner thing) so heres a new one.(i think)... has anyone out there ever heard of honey being a great natural drawant? was told once that if i got a nice Q of good bud, imersed it in a jar of honey then left it sit for a whole year, that u would have "canna-honey" to spread on ur toast in the morning to toast U!! havnt tried as i dun think i culd leave a quart 4 that long, would be interesting to no if anyone out there has done this and what the results were... im not smokin da shit ne more...10-15 yrs worth enuff 4 me:|
 
Simplest way to cook a small amount of skunk with very little knowledge of cooking.

OK, I did look at the mega "Cooking with Cannabis" thread but didn't think it was actually that helpful. If I'm wrong, someone please feel free to point this out and direct me to the part that answers my question.

Anyway, I want to turn quite a small amount of weed (actually skunk, for the sake of being specific) into something edible. I will be using buds (and probably some stalk and other shit) although I've read that this is a waste because I don't grow anything personally and buds are all I can get. I'll only be using about 3g because I can't afford much more.

I will have at my disposal, besides this, a stove and a microwave.

What is the SIMPLEST, EASIEST way that I can prepare this into something edible, with the maximum amount of THC and assorted cannabinoids ready for absorption through the digestive tract?

I can't be bothered to make anything fancy and taste is not particularly important. Can I just grind this up, mix it into some butter and cook it for a bit? What about grated cheese instead? Or milk? How long should I cook it for? At what temperature? Can I use the microwave, since I assume it'd be simpler?

I need this completely spelled out to me pretty much coz I can't cook and also don't want to waste a whole bag of weed. Any responses much appreciated.
 
yeah don't eat it straight shit THC needs to be heated to be activated I have friends who ate it its just gonna make u feel like shit...
 
Well, let's see...You'd have to google it, but there's a method for cooking cannabis that involves a jar, a pot, aluminum foil, and some cooking oil. Sorry I can't be of much more help. Google it.
 
I have googled it, and perhaps I'm an idiot for this, but I couldn't find anything that was very helpful, which is why I posted here...

Everything is about cooking with a large amount of pot, cooking complicated meals, etc, etc, whereas all I want to know is the absolute minimum that needs to be done to make the THC orally active, which, a bit annoyingly, I can't find anywhere.

oh whaaaaaat?
I'm always chewing on little buds all the time. I eat about a gram to every ten I get.

I guess im gonna stop whoa D:


But I guess with that small amount you can make some pretty flame little appetizers or idk. Firecrackers maybe?
You only need about a fourth of a gram for one, so you can make a good twelve, and they're simple to make.
get a cracker, put peanut butter on it, sprinkle some finely chopped/gorund herb on the peaut butter, put another cracker on top then wrap it in some foil and bake at 350-400 for about a half hour, then let em cool and enjoy!
