I am finally making this today. I ground about 4 grams of good bud in a coffee grinder and decarboxylized it at 325F for 5 minutes. I put the bud in a pyrex measuring cup with one ounce of food grade vegetable glycerine I bought at a health food store. I covered the cup with aluminum foil and put it in an electric roaster with a temperature control and set the control at 200F. I'm planning to cook it for 8 hours, but I might check it at about 4 hours.

The roaster is like a large crock pot, but instead of a ceramic crock that sits inside the heating mechanism, it's a large metal roaster. And instead of just High and Low, it has a thermostatic heating control with different temperature settings. The thing is, I don't think the temperature control is accurate. I set it at 200, but it didn't seem to be that hot when the indicator light turned off. I got my digital barbeque thermometer and set the probe inside the roaster, and it only read about 170. I cranked it up to 250 and it went to about 210. I want to hold it about 200, so I'm backing it off a few degrees to get the temp inside the roaster that I want.

I tasted the glycerine before adding it to the mixture, and it is an interesting taste. It is sort of sweet. It wasn't what I expected at all, even though other people had said it is sweet. If this works, I expect the tincure to be a lot more pleasant flavor than Green Dragon.

This is the first time I did the decarboxylization process at 325F for 5 minutes. I have always used 200F for 20 minutes when I made green dragon. The weed looked a little more toasted than usual, but not burnt. I did not notice any vapors like some people have mentioned. It also did not seem to stink up the house as much as usual.

I'll post back results later.
