The Hounds' Cannabis Capsule Guide with Flame-On's Recipe
Those friggen dogs are amazing. I think the numbers for bloodhounds are something like 700 times more nerve endings in the nose than humans, and each nerve ending is 1000 times more sensitive. (Discovery channel) That guy was darn lucky IMO.
Alright, I'll be trying a couple capsules in 3 or 4 hours. They turned out fair for my first time. They only ended up about an average of 80% full, and I got 38 of them from 10.1 grams of destemmed and finely herb ground AK-47. For first-timers: don't push down as hard as it looks like Mr. Hound is pushing on his tamper. It looks like he's putting most of his weight on the thing, and you definitely don't want to do that. I didn't press real hard, and I still got the stuff squishing out the top of the capsules from pressing down too hard. It got all over everything in a thin layer and was about impossible to salvage, so I ended up wasting about 2 capsules-full total. In fact I understand now why the tamper is optional. I may not even use it next time. I spread the stuff with a rubber spatula, then the card. At that point I wish I would have went through each one with a chop stick or something instead of trying to do them all at once with the tamper. What happens if air get trapped in the bottom? It won't happen with dry powder, but with this stuff it seemed to happen a lot.
I was wondering if you do anything about the fact that when you put the small part of the capsule back on, it's empty and therefore wastes room in the capsule. You guys don't fill up that small part too do you? Well I just looked at your photo again, and it looks like yours are about 90-95% full, with some of them looking nearly completely full. How did you do that, unless you filled the little parts as well?
More first-timer advice: When you float your mixture in ice water as Weedhound does, be careful and stir often or constantly. I put mine in the water, then put about 15 empty caps in the machine, and by that time much of the goop had frozen to the bottom of the bowl. I heated it up a little, which ended up being a little too much, so I cooled it again and did the same damn thing, but not as bad. I hope freezing and thawing isn't going to adversely Affect the Effect. We shall see. If so, it will be like a crap shoot; the stuff in some of the pills was never frozen. Also don't worry so much about working fast like I did. I was afraid the stuff was going to solidify before I could get it in the caps, but it basically stays malleable even after cooling some. At least I hope it's supposed to since mine did.
What else, I know there was something. Uhhh, damn head, think. Oh yeah, I was wondering what you do about the oil all over the outside of the capsules, or did that only happen to me since I squished the stuff out, and all over the capsules. I ended up wiping them off individually with a paper towel, but they're still a little greasy. Also, 4 of mine got melted ends, on the bottom as they sat in the machine. After sitting a few hours they got nice and hard again (relatively), but they look like they got elephantiasis or something. Do you think this was because the goop was still too warm, or was it more likely that I had a little moisture in the tray since it didn't happen to the other 34?
As far as I know (except the freezing thing) everything turned out the way it was supposed to. I ended up with a very dark green, almost black paste. Looking real forward to a few hours from now. Have I said this yet?: Thank you.Opie Yutts Reviewed by Opie Yutts on . The Hounds' Cannabis Capsule Guide with Flame-On's Recipe So Mr Hound and I made some capsules tonight and we figured we'd do a little pictorial guide as to how we accomplish it. We want to give HUGE props to Flame-On for all his hard work and great knowledge for this capsule recipe.....we LOVE it!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: First, we start with some nice ganja (in this case SNL x NH), some coconut oil and a strainer. For this particular recipe I am using 20 grams of strained bud. It takes about 22-24 grams pre-strained but I end up with almost Rating: 5
