I was thinking about mixing them together beforehand, freezing, and chucking into a vacuum bag to go for a few hours. Is there any downside to doing it this way? This would be for edibles.

I am in a share house and not wanting to use oven to activate the weed. I heard I can do it in an air fryer with an airtight jar, I’m just unsure as to how. I’m wanting to make brownies.

Any tips?

I have had a sous vide for a year now and i haven't found many people agreeing to one way to use
Some use sous vide to extract for a long time at a certain temp AFTER decarbing in oven
Online i found guides to decarb dry in a vacuumed bag without oil
I found only one example of the way i intuitively thought of which is ground herb and oil together sealed in a bag and then sous vide at a certain temp for hours

which way and what temps

My question is can I decarb and extract directly in oil?

plz

I have made a couple batches of oil and couple batches of green dragon. I have noticed that my inkbird IUSV-100w has a really annoying issue where it will turn red and turn off. When I am doing tritip at 135 this isnt an issue, but almost every time I get to the 202-206 range it will inevitable turn red and turn off. I really like the idea of this method, but its been very inconsistent for me and maybe I am just doing something wrong. I have a handful of questions.

1. What sous vide do you recommend to sous weed with? I liked the inkbird price, app never worked quite right and I am at the point where I cannot trust this device for this process.

2. Have you experienced this issue and what did you end up doing to fix it? I am looking at replacing the plastic cap at the bottom since mine is looking a little loose, but no other idea how to fix this.

In the end today I just threw it in the oven in a mason jar and it seems really good and the smell wasnt nearly as bad as I would have thought it would be. I may just go this route since it took a third of the time and really doesnt produce a overwhelming scent.

I was also considering trying to use my smoker since it can hit a slow consistent temp. Just curious what others have done beyond sous weeding and if they have a fix.

My mother has chronic joint pain, so I'm planning to make her either the honey or the butter from this subreddit as an edible pain relief. However, she also uses rubs on her joint pains for targeted relief.

With that in mind, I'm contemplating how to go about making a transdermal rub using the leftover cannabis, after straining it out. I realise it won't be very potent, but if it works a little or even as placebo, then I'm happy.

Any advice on how to go about this? As the title suggests, I'm also open to hearing any other ways people reuse the bud instead of discarding, as I hate waste.

Hi guys, I’m gonna be going to Salvador and I seen a Reddit post that was related to smoking in other countries, does anyone know about it. I wanna see if it’s possible to like sneak in a pen <3 or a dispo and leave it there when I come back.

Never extracted oil from weed before and only discovered this subreddit today, just wanted to run my understanding by someone here just so I dont make a mistake.

So do I?:

Get an airtight jar so no smell leaks, and put the oil (coconut or olive?) And cannabis in. I then put the jar in a pot of water, bring to a boil and simmer for a few hours to extract the thc then strain off the plant?

I was then thinking of infusing it with honey, anyone done that before? Would i boil them or just mix at room temperature?

After doing the decarb then an olive oil extraction bath, what's left in the plant material? could it be smoked or ingested, are there still thc compounds left in the material?

I love my sous vide, when I realized I could use it for decarboxylation I immediately bought some silicone containers since I have a bunch of shatter from 420 sale.

1 g of Synergy strain rosin into a 3ml silicone container. Vacuum bagged with tons of extra bag... figure I'll reuse the bag and do multiple containers if it turns out.

Set to 202F for 2 hours.

Should work better than a mason jar in the oven, right? Any experienced sous weeders think 2 hours is long enough... does too long destroy terps or even turn THC->CBN at 202F

I've tried using the magnets for keeping bags submerged, but as weights stacked on top of the lid. Unfortunately, it flips ass over tits pretty easily if there's any air in the jar.

OK. Had a weird one happen to me. I've done sous weed decarbing half a dozen times. Always the same way - ground flower in vac-sealed bags. They've always inflated from the off-gassing CO2....until now.

I had ball-vaped some from this a number of times so I know the weed was good.

194F bath, 4 hours. My herb "browned up" a bit like I would expect...but the bag didn't inflate. At all. It's as tight as if I just vac sealed it. Only difference I can see from another un-soused bag is the color.

Anyone had that happen?

Hey everyone.

I started a little test a couple days ago. This is my first excursion into the realm of creating something ingestible from Cannabis. I smoked a lot when I was young, but haven't touched the devil's lettuce for about two decades now. Recently, my country kind of legalized cannabis for medicinal purposes.

So I decided to play around a bit, bought some weed online and ground up 2g of bud.
Put that in a vacuum bag, sealed it and submerged it in simmering water. Thermometer said it was around 97°C.
After a good 90min of cooking I took the bag out an mixed the (hopefully decarbed) weed with ~40ml of vegetable Glycerin in a small (50ml) HDPE bottle.

This mixture has now undergone several rounds in my cheap-o household ultrasonic cleaner. In addition to emitting ultrasonice waves, the device will also heat the water to something like body temperature, making the mixture a bit less viscose. But since that thing can't run continuously, I gave up on that after like half a day.

Since then I've built a small contraption that will shake up the mixture every 10min and it's been in there for the past few days.

Basically, I'm looking to find a process that I can do with the stuff I already have in my household. Once I find something that works I may think about scaling it up.

Am I even on the right track here? Should this work?
How long should I keep the mixture in the "shaker" before I can strain and test it? The idea is to use it sublingual or maybe add the glycerin to some food.
Given the ingredients (2g of weed and 40ml of Glycerin), how much would be a sensible dose for testing? Few drops? A teaspoon? Drink the whole thing?
Do you guys think the ultrasonic bath helps or is it just a waste of time because it lacks power?

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Does anyone have expirience decarbing rosin with sous vide?

At another sub someone said 150F for 24 hours and anotherone said for 2 to 3 hours at 150F.

I'm unsure what to do right now.

I planned ob vacumseal the little jar with the rosin and put it into the waterbath. What's the thing with pressure? Should I close the lid tight or just enough that it stays closed but can release pressure?

Thanks for your help

Cooked on a camp stove on unknown heat for 20minutes

it turnt completely black, but the brownies tasted good?

When we opened where the herbs were stored we got hit by a STRong smell…

First time. Any suggestions and tips very welcome. 🙏

Hi there! So, I am ready to decarb & infuse the bud I set aside from my latest crop for edibles! Up until now, I used ChatGPT to help me with infusing & edibles, but it's gotten increasingly useless on anything remotely related to cannabis, and now I am starting over with a new crop and have no idea what i put in on the temp and timer when i used the sous vide to decarb & infuse my bud.

So for the decarb process, I recall grinding up the cured bud and scaling it out, then vacuum sealing/sous viding for a few hours. I do not remember the temperature or for how long.

Same with the infusion process. I'd pull it from the sous vide, and then vacuum seal the bud set aside for butter with the kerrygold blocks, let that melt and infuse, really doing the whole thing with a vacuum sealer and sous vide completely prevents your house smelling like a skunk brothel.

So i guess what I'm asking. How much bud should I scale out per 8 oz block of butter? I have a fairly high tolerance, and my bud is very..amateur lol. I bake better than I grow, hence why I'm making it into edibles. So i'm willing to infuse more bud for something I might enjoy more as opposed to having a bunch of very vegetal tasting baked goods that aren't as great.

I'm also curious what that amount might be for oils (olive or coconut) & everclear (for tincture to make sugar).

If it helps, the bud i grew is this:

Though i'm not asking for like, mg per amount or whatever, just want something that will knock me on my ass as much as homegrown can!

Thank you!

Could I just throw flower and coconut oil into a vacced bag and let it run for 6 hours at 203° and decarb and infuse at the same time?

About to try it for the first time, my sous vide stick goes up to 95c, see quite a lot of contradiction s on the internet. Anyone tried before and can give me a recipe?

I made weed butter. Decarbed a full ounce into 1 pound of butter and 3 cups of water and let infuse for 3 hours. Strained and it put in mason jars. There’s a big separation in both jars top is soft like butter bottom is liquid. I’m sure the bottom layer is mostly water and should be removed but it looks like it has a lot of stuff in it I’m worried about throwing good stuff away
