given the apparent fluctuations that exist in different crock pots and ovens in general, this is the method i plan on employing as soon as i have the nugs/keef to work with.

there's my nickel.
The beauty of the double boiler method is you cant 'overcook' the weed (the boiling point of water prevents you getting over 100 C), however, it also means it is possible to 'under' cook it (as some people have experienced).

You need the temperature to be as close to boiling as you can consistently keep it (it also requires a bit more work, you need to watch it, regulate the flame up and down, and make sure it doesn't boil dry), otherwise the THC won't dissolve into the oli/ghee.

Its a technique that some people have struggled with, but as long as you're aware of the 'do's and don't's, you should be rocking and rolling.
