Everclear Tinctures and Others

When I make eddy's I take my bud or trim and turn it into hash, then press into rosin, then infusion in mct oil. 

Best way to dose your edibles in my opinion, you can be more accurate, much higher potantcy and keeps the weed/plant taste to a minimum.

I hate the taste of weed in most edibles like gummys, baked goods, candy .. Mostly sweet stuff, but love it in savoury things like curry's, salads and the like.

I agree with monkey on this one, curing isn't needed if your making tinctures

I told my friends it’s ok if they bring some instead of taken all the time lol

Would be great if they listened but they don’t know how to properly make them or have easy access to enough cannabis. One or these friends always brings something though like BBQ or liquor to keep us happy. A fair trade for a few gummies.

It's happening ... my Friday just began.

I’ve used the bags to decarb but I found that they inflate a lot from the hot air and the terpene evaporation. This made it difficult to keep the temps up so I switched back to the mason jar to decarb. How do you deal with the bags inflating and keeping the temps high enough?

Monkeydo -- I seal up 2 butter knives in a connected, but separate pocket. 

Pretty cool!  Really want to make some Green Dragon one day, I had it once in my younger years and it wrecked me....  lmao

I ended up with about 11 ounces after heavy filtering. I ran it through the 75 mesh bag and then ran it through a coffee filter twice. Head Test and Review to follow  

@exnavyinstl the weight pocket is a handy trick but my bags inflated a lot even though it was vacuum sealed, almost to the point of looking like they might pop. Maybe I did something wrong.

@monkeydo ... or, I have crappy weed. 🤡 

I just sampled the tincture, and it burned like crazy under my tongue. What's funny about this is that I took a couple of swigs of the Everclear to reignite high school memories and it was smoother than I expected. Although, I didn't hold it under my tongue last night.

So, I took the lids off of the bottles and I am going to let them evaporate out overnight (or longer).

I took about a 1/4 inch of the dropper to see if I could feel it. Next time, I'll be more exact and use a syringe and write down the amounts.

My MCT Oil is a lot smoother of a tincture. But, I expected that.

After reading more, I have moved the Tincture out of the dropper bottles and moved to a mason jar. It's now in a boiler pot on an "electric" stove. Please do not do this on a gas stove or you will prematurely meet your maker.
