How To Make Concentrated Cannabis Oil

In the process of doing my first oven decarb to provide feedback regarding safety/efficacy. In regards to safety, I've actually chosen to use the least safe method (don't do this at home) by using a flammable non-food-grade carrier (not because I want other people to do this but to prove that I won't blow up and thereby hopefully prove that food grade will be completely safe given the appropriate precautions. First I made sure I have a working Class B fire extinguisher on hand. I also chose not to run the overhead vent fan, again not to endorse it but to test safety in the even someone lost their vent in the middle of a decarb. I'm about 20 minutes in now and haven't blown anything up yet so keep your fingers crossed - also posted in other thread by mistake...

Ok, test is complete and no explosions - so to recap don't do this at home!

I placed the measuring cup in a glass pyrex cooking dish in the oven at 180 deg until carrier was all gone and movement had stopped
I bumped up temp to 220 until movement slowed which was about 15 min
I then bumped up the 240 and when checking temp with laser it actually brought it to 248 until movement stopped which was another 20 min
Even with my unsafe practices I was able to decarb in oven without blowing things up. Hopefully this brings 420 one step closer to endorsing the oven method using proper procedure which would include adequate ventilation, food grade carrier such as Spirytus or Everclear, and a solid surface to place the measuring cup on to avoid spills, and a class B fire extinguisher at the ready throughout the process.
