Hey,
Recently been getting into Thc extraction and making Oil 'n what not.
I've seen a few methods scattered over the net. I've never made up a brew, but I'm planning on it.
I've pretty much stuck to the iso method and have gathered all items needed. I then seen a cooking oil extraction method, I figured this would be much easier.
"#!: B. Extracting THC in cooking oil
For this process all you need in addition to the weed, is cooking oil - either vegetable or canola oil, both are fine.
Step 1: Put the weed in a pan, or pot - and place on the stove on a low flame
Step 2: Pour enough oil over the weed to ALMOST cover it. Remember, the less oil, the more
potent it will be. I recommend looking at the brownie mix box and seeing how much oil it calls for. Pour that amount in, if it is not enough add a bit more until you feel comfortable with it. Or, if the amount of oil called for in the brownie recipe looks like too much, add a little at a time, and simply add the remaining oil to the brownie mix.
Step 3: Let it sit on a low flame for as long as possible, and stir for a couple of minutes every half hour. The longer you can get this to go the better. Anywhere up to 12 hours is fine, but in my case I was only able to do this for about 2 or 3 hours.
Step 4: Make sure the flame is not too high! If the weed is picking up a very distinct brown color the flame is too high! The weed will obtain a brownish tint; however, too brown is no good, it must still be recognizable as a green plant at all times.
Step 5: When you are done cooking, set up a large bowl and either a colander, cheese cloth, or even a coffee filter.
Step 6: Dump the weed into the colander, cheese cloth, or coffee filter - allowing all the oil to go into the large bowl.
Step 7: Press the weed, getting as much oil out as possible.
Step 8: Save your oil, and discard you weed; or sell it to an idiot, because it no longer has THC in it."
Now, you reckon this is a good method? Or should I just stick to the iso method (note: I'll also be cooking it down)
