The Hounds' Cannabis Capsule Guide with Flame-On's Recipe

Alright, I think we'll give it another go. I hope I can convince him...or just do it while he's at work... :thumbsup:

Thanks for finding that thread for me, Weedhound! :)

Ok so sorry for the time i was away became extremely busy! i want to thank W hound for input and advice.
So after doing alot more research this is what i found out.
I called rival and al clad as well as hamilton beach every one of their higher class digital crock pots go UP TOO 214 F except al clad the 150$ us dollar slow cooker which i believe he said either 230 or 240 F.
Anyways i said fuck it and i used my old slow cooker to cook the oil.
The first run i did which was for three hours and i didnt do as well as i want to he crock pot went up too 225F on high which i thought eh was not bad. this second time which i just made today pics below it went up to 285 strange but nice and saved alot of money i measured "experimentally" One teaspoon of coconut oil
with one gram of finely ground bud i placed a small aluminum lid inside crock pot in which i poured the oil then after it reached 260F which was in a minute or less i then added the bud and stirred i checked it every hour for two hours so twice and then i left it while i went to run an errand. its total time was 4 hours 30 mins so for look like the acid form of THCA has lost its carboxyl molecule and bonded nicely with the fatty acid chains. i will try them tomorrow and let u guys know. :thumbsup:

PS unfortunately 1 gram and 1 teaspoon only got me 6 capsule :(
PSS yoki if you have any doubts i suggest u call the manufacture of any slow cooker u wish to purchase and double check their temp range :stoned:

Opie my bad for referring u as to yoki, was thinking of someone else lol anyways THC has a boiling point of 392 F which is when its liquid/solid form turns into vapor. Double check with wikipedia. An oil that is full in saturated fats such as coconut oil has a smoke point of 350F so u typically dont want to go past that temp or their will be no point in throwing the oil in with the bud

Let us know how it does for you ruiz ;)

After trying 2 caps this morning i was feeling pretty good. not as strong as i wanted it but it was alright when i popped two more 1 hour after taking the first. then i really started to feel it. it lasted for around two hours. im wondering if it lost some potency because of the high temps and the long cooking i may try flameons technique and cook for 2 hours at low setting. W hound and input when u tried flameons method?

That's what I use these days and a crockpot....my mixture temps will get up to about 260F if I use a larger amount (lately I've been whipping up 20ish grams of weed at a time) but when I cooked small amounts I found that you really have to watch carefully or the temps WILL climb too high. ;)

I think the temps that work best for me are between 220-250F for about 3 hours.

Thanks for the input W. Hound, im gonna try to put it on the low setting and leave it for around two hour and take some put then leave the rest for 3 and compare. my concern was that when it was at such high temps it smelt strongly, like i was baking cookies. and if u notice the color of the bud, it was more of a darkish brown then a green like other examples :apachecopter:

oh and if you don't have a pill capping mAchine i found thAt using a paper plate works by poking holes in with a pen and the oo pills should fit right in. Oh and flip the plate upside down on a flat surface and the pills should go in flush. I like it because its cheaper . But I also bought the pill machine LOL but I didnt buy all the parts for it so I came up with this idea.

An alternative to this recipe is to make it without using coconut oil at all. Just place your finely ground material (leaf, stem, harsh buds) in a baking pan and bake it at 225 degrees. The magic number for temp is 218, anything higher than 265 and you're vaporizing away the good stuff, and anything lower the carboxyl group won't break away. After about 15 min its done, pull it out of the oven and put it into caps. Easy eh?

Now when you do this grey what does the leaf look like? Brown? Still green?
