Cannabis Capsules â?? A step-by-step guide.

[AlterEcho]

Alter, how long did you cook your stuff for......the GOOD stuff? And what were your temps?

I cooked the Apollo for two hours and fifteen minutes. Temps stayed steady at 190F. But, like I said, I think the most important thing was the addition of the water. Adding the water and waiting two hours for the temps to rise really made the difference.

Well the oven method works. Holly shit am I loaded! Iâ??m so blazed I cant go buy munches. Itâ??s only been two hours and I am high. :stoned:

Ha ha I love stuff like that Ozo. :thumbsup:

Been working with my crockpot and pretty sure I have the method down to what works for me. Toggling between low and high, using a ceramic bowl to heat instead of the cup, cooking things long enough and making sure the mix is cool enough to put into the capsules and I think I've got it down pretty well

Yesterday I cooked up a batch that ended up cooking for 4 hours in my crockpot at approx 225 (between 200 and 250 the entire time.) Without a doubt.....my BEST batch yet. The physicians assistant I spoke to mentioned to me that in most ways of cooking with ganja the longer you cook it the better...IF you stay within temp range.

Three pills was just a TOUCH too much...........next go I'll try two.

Kudos to you! I have done some experimenting and have found another cooking method that has worked for me. I place my oil and bud mixture into a mason jar seal it and put it in a regular oven set between 225-250. Even if your oven gets too hot any THC that gets vaporized it stays in the jar. No smell.

Careful heating up mason jars. They aren't tempered so they could possibly explode or crack leaving you with a mess and possible blood loss.

[Weedhound]

I agree with Mr O....that doesn't sound safe; especially sealed.

O,

They are made with heat tempered glass in canning you typically use a process called pressure canning where you use a pressure cooker which heats the sealed filled jars to 240 degrees F under 10lbs of pressure. The only real danger of the glass breaking is if when you remove the jar straight from the oven and place it on a cold wet surface. I have done it this way a half dozen times now.

Sharon (lunarose) is right. My mom uses them for canning and they are put into a pressure cooker full of boiling water as part of the canning process. Rarely does one ever break, and when it does it is user error not a canning jar issue...

Well that's more than I know about it......
