It IS pretty quiet in from his corner.....:D
Not exactly, I said I forgot to get a candy thermometer, so I was using a meat thermometer. I believe the metal probe measures temperatures all the way up to the dial, so that's why I propped the part by the dial up off the bowl. The bottom 1/4-3/8 inch was submerged in oil, and that's the only thing the thermometer was touching.Quote:

I was wondering, this method either works or it doesn't right? I mean it won't partially work. The THC either gets activated or it doesn't, right? Or is this thinking wrong and it is possible to have the THC get activated only somewhat?
10.1 grams after destemming, finely grinding, and picking out any detectable chunks of stem. That made 38.Quote:

Longer than 5 hours? That's after it got to 218.Quote:

I'm going to go take 8 right now. I'll let you know.
Actually I HAVE found it to "partially work" which is why I spent so much time at the stove figuring out my temps. It's definitely by trial and error on my part that I've worked these temps out so carefully. They ARE what makes the difference to me.
It's also why I literally sat with this mixture in a sauce pan for 3 and 1/2 hours one day to make sure the temp stayed correct....temp is ALL. But like the post i put up there the meat thermometer should work for you. The dark green paste part sounds perfect......unless you didn't get it hot enough and that's the only thing i can think of. If you think it will work better.....heat some up to 350 and try that.....maybe people are very individual in what works for them. I ended up trying them all one by one. Some at 350. They were ok.....some at 375....not as strong......tried at 350 and cooked longer.....no improvement and in fact, not quite as strong again. So then try at 300....better results. 300 for longer.....about the same. Than 250F.... over and over and OVER until I got to this recipe.
Each of these occurances lessened the strength of the capsules for me. Temp under 200, temp over 280-ish, too short a cooking time, using different kinds of oil (i was using olive oil for awhile) and a few other things i can't think of right now. None of them VOIDED the recipe.....but they all weakened it......sometimes considerably but quite seriously you should even be able to eat some RAW ganja and feel SOMETHING from it imo.
Opie for god sake.....I'm going to come over there and pop you. Take two grams in a coffee cup, some oil, a thermometer and do some tests. Find out what works the best for you. I tried Flames recipe....it was ok (five to six tabs to get me to where three do now) but it was denitely a trial and error thing. I've cooked at higher temps (375%) lower temps, cooked it for 15 mins, 1/2 hour, and different lengths of time up to my 4 hours and this is the most consistent and powerful capsule recipe I have.
What ARE we going to do with you?? :wtf:
Dont suppose there is any way to heat those same capsules up hotter......use the same mix....the answer has to be hotter in your case......not lower.......you're at the edge of low already.
Gotcha, more experimenting. No problem, if I can just find where I put my other grow. Alright I guess it would be worth wasting a few ounces if I can get this figured out. If these 8 continue to not work, I'll see if I can find a candy thermometer somewhere later today. I want this to work damn it. What do you suggest that I keep my next temperature at? I was thinking maybe try it at 280 or 310, somewhere in there.
I too was thinking about reheating the stuff. Don't know how hard it is to peel the capsules off the weed, or maybe I could just cook the whole darn mess. Thoughts?
My wife kept telling me that crock pots are designed to work with some liquid in them. I tried to find anything that indicated you put water in your slow cooker, but I failed. Same thing with Flameon's thread. Am I an idiot and I should have had water surrounding my cooking bowl. And, would that make a difference anyway if the mixture gets to the right temperature?
