I have limited experience with capsules, but the ones I made ... I'd take 1 around 5:00 pm, they'd knock my socks off after a few hrs, and I was still a zombie well past midnight. I swear I was feeling it the following day too. I just used finely ground bud (using a coffee grinder), baked it (I saved the instructions), and packed it into capsules. Now Iâ??ve been researching the coconut oil capsules because they are reportedly more efficient.

Anyways ... I think I know where you're getting at with the whole 'saturation' deal and I think youâ??ll find that youâ??ll get the results youâ??re looking for by extracting the THC from your bud or trim. From what I have read it is always best to start with either hash or keif. That way you are using the highest concentration of THC and the results will be consistent from capsule to capsule.

You can easily take some bud or trim, place it in a jar, dump isopropyl alcohol (highest % you can find) into the jar, vigorously shake it for 15-30 seconds and filter the mess through a strainer and coffee filter. Place the fluid into a Pyrex dish and place the dish under a fan. All the alcohol will evaporate and leave you with just the THC so to speak. Many suggest giving the bud another wash to make sure you got all to most of the THC out of the bud/trim.

I just tried this method today and was shocked at how much I was able to extract! I used 60g of the crummiest trim you could imagine and I made a 3g nug. It may not sound too impressive, but you should have seen the crap I was using. My trim consisted of whole fan leaves, stems, and all of my trim was mixed together. I havenâ??t smoked any yet, but it looks REAL good.

I think either tumbled bud or trim â?¦ hash or any type of concentrated method will work better than ground up bud in order to give you the results youâ??re looking for. Plant matter is just too bulky and all you need is the THC/trichs.

Iâ??m sure that your original question has NOT been answered. Just how much THC can coconut oil absorb? I donâ??t know, but Iâ??m about positive that best results will NOT be obtained using ground bud.
