Not nearly as purple as I hoped, but maybe she will get it together in the next few days!

I did some baking last night. 5 grams of decarbed weed into a bit over a 1/4 cup of cocoa butter. Then turned it into milk chocolate bars… not really sure how strong they will be lol might just have to try a half bar to start. I was planning on less chocolate but after having to add more sugar ( dark chocolate is nasty) I also had to add a bit of coconut oil to help it melt more smoothly so what was supposed to be 4-6 bars is now 13

Well, if that 5 grams of cannabis was 20% THC content, then you would have about 1000mg total. So my estimate for each of the 13 bars is about 75 mg each.

What can a guy expect from 75 mg. I made brownies from another thread a week ago but didnt decarb.
I made muffins in high school… we had bags of sweet leaf that we stick in coffee cans with nuts n bolts then shook it through a t shirt. Poured some crystal in the batter. Then filled the muffin tins half way. Put a teaspoon of straight crystal in then topped off the muffin tins. It made a little hash blob in the middle of each one.
I ate one at the beginning of math class figuring it would kick in by the end which would lead I to lunch/skipping the last half of school. Well, 15 minutes later trying to do a test in class I was fuuuucked. Those muffins scared 3 of my buddies away from weed for quite some time lol

So @ReikoX and @Mongobongo , do you guys freeze fresh for edibles or dry it like normal?

I dry like normal. Lately I’ve been using bubble hash and scrapings from my grinder to make gummies.

@Grease_Monkey 75 mg should be a strong dose. I have a pretty high tolerance and would get a good buzz from 75 mg. My buddy will fall asleep after 30 mg. So it kinda depends on the person. Start with half and see how you feel.
@OleReynard I press most of my flower into rosin. Some of that rosin gets stuck in the bags, so I save them. When I get a full jar, I wash the bags with ethanol, filter, and reduce back to oil. I decarb the oil and use that for my recipe.
I wash my trim dry when I have enough, then press that for smoking. I call it Wonka rosin because you never know what a hit is going to taste like.

I have in the past but I find the green taste is much stronger when using veg matter directly into butter or oil.

I reduce my RSO down in coconut oil and bake with it, I get a more even mix instead of playing Russian roulette with the cookies

Right, I add my decarbed oil into the recipe based on 60% THC estimates and serving size. I’m still guessing, but I’m a not playing Russian roulette.

I get some cookies will do not much and some will put me on my ass for 3 or 4 hours.
Just sampled the first half of one bar… cant taste the weed at all, the chocolate and mint cover it perfectly. Unfortunatly I didnt get my mix just right so the chocolate is slightly gritty… edible but not perfect

Did you just dump the weed straight into the mixture and whisk it up?
Chocolate is the best thing to counter the taste for me. Tonight I got 2 squares of chocky and stuck them together with a bit of oil.

For the chocolate? No I made butter with the cocoa butter then strained it through cheese cloth, then mixed in the milk powder, sugar and cocoa powder. I ki d if went off the rails with my measurements compared to the recipe I was “following” lol.

Need a finer strainer, to get the worst of it out, I think the grainier ones are more potent.
This tastes more like a sugar grit, gf thinks I should have added a bit more coconut oil or cocoa butter. Regardless if my next batch turns out the same i wouldn’t complain.
Starting to feel somthing

am thinking about making a really concentrated batch of green dragon and then adding that to baked goods …not sure how it would workout …the stuff i made in the past took about 3 milliliters for me to be happy
