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

In the majority of cases, most people have only been measuring and reporting the 'ambient' temperature seen 'inside' the crock pot/oven, not the actual temperature of the oil/butter, therefore, it's difficult to be certain with any degree of absolute accuracy as to how much the variance between these two temperatures is the norm.
However, I'm tempted to suggest two courses of action that I think will address the issues:
Firstly, the weed to oil ratio you describe sounds a little light on oil.

For your next iteration, go with the lower heat, and make a single batch. Fill and set half the mixture in capsules (leave the other half in its container), if you're not satisfied with the potency you can re-heat the remaining mixture at a slightly higher temp and then compare results.
I'm more than confident you'll find a way to crack the technique, as clearly you've done your homework and really understand the principals involved.
Good work and thanks for keeping us updated.

However, if you're just posting on this thread as a provocation or to re-start your vendetta against me, I'd rather you didn't.
To give you the benefit of the doubt, in order to understand what mobyone is talking about (rather than reading and replying to just one post), you'd need to spend a little time trying to understand what it is that we're trying to achieve in this method and the techniques involved.
In order to do that you'll need to read through the thread and understand the differences between: the 'low' and 'high' settings on a crock pot (and how they vary depending on make and size), the differences between temperatures in Celsius and Fahrenheit, and what the difference actually is between a 'low' and 'high' temperature as far as cooking is concerned.
You''ll find it easier to offer advice to people once you've had first-hand experience in preparing and making your own capsules.
Good luck.

However, if you're after a slightly more scientific answer, I'm thinking (given what you've already said) that the crock pot is your biggest change (i.e. how much temperature is being applied).
Can you remember what setting it was on and for how long etc, also, the quantities used: oil and weed?
As a (wild) guess, I suspect it may have been running at too high a temperature (was it set on high?). Although it's not uncommon for the weed to turn brown during cooking, normally the oil itself is a pretty dark green-ish colour when done.
Once we sort out the differences between the two methods you've tried you'll be on to a sure-fire winner, especially given you've now got coconut oil and the bigger sized caps.
Good work :thumbsup:Flameon Reviewed by Flameon on . Cannabis Capsules â?? A step-by-step guide. Part 1 - Acknowledgements and thanks. Iâ??d like to begin with a big thank you to weedhound and sickpup45 who inspired me to experiment with Cannabis Capsules in the first place, and to Opie Yutts who â??nudgedâ?? me into writing this â??step-by-stepâ?? tutorial for the forums. Cheers guys! Secondly, Iâ??ve tried to keep this guide as simple as possible, but, as the box says â??Some assembly is requiredâ??, and therefore, this guide might not be suitable for everyone. It needs some Rating: 5
