Sorry Mag7 I just realized you had your temp setting at 220 for 4 hours, yikes, that is the problem there my friend. I'm glad you are safe bTW. I'm gonna post my recipe and please critique at your wish. I don't want you to think you still can't use your MB2.
*With my experience you are supposed to set it at 160F for 8 hours. Decarb first then put all your ingredients in.

Decarb & MB2 Oil Dosing Recipe - G2HM - 1.0 "Fresh Harvest MB2 OILzheimers Method" (Oct 19, 2017)
Why did I create this variation of this MB2 recipe?
There are so many purposeful recipe's out there, it's hard to choose which one is most beneficial to someone with a Neuro Degenerative Disease, and to the caregivers, whom need the easiest more efficient way to create oil.
You will hear people comment and add to my recipe, just remember, it's different when you have a broken brain, details are not so obvious, but terribly important. It's very hard for me to figure out scientific processes, so I did a step by step process that Brain Patients can do themselves without the scientific jargon that sometimes confuses me.
Also, this formula is for people who are starting oil for the first time. Some people like to double and triple plant material and that is up to the patient, just be mindful of your limits.
If you do have the money to get this machine, I highly recommend it for patients with disabilities. This will take the guess work and manual labour out of making oil. Please, if you're going to buy one, please pm me for a discount link or use ("gummybear") so you can save 25 dollars. Every cent matters, this will give you consistent results and you can even experiment, safely, without compromise.
----------------Your ingredient list--------------------
Fresh Harvest MB2 Oil — Feel free to mix your strains to address more than one medical condition.
1. 1-ounce BUD or 1.5-ounce of Trim & Leaves — The more bud you use the stronger the potency becomes.
*Please wash your plant material and hang to dry for 4 hours immediately after harvest, then place in a baggie for freezing.
*IMPORTANT - Try to keep as much as the Crystals in-tact because we need them for the oil. If you're too rough with your plant material it will lessen the potency. You may be accidentally washing your money down the drain so be nice to your buds.
2. 1 teaspoon
You know that Lecithin is used for "Lecithin is a fat that is essential in the cells of the body. It can be found in many foods, including soybeans and egg yolks. Lecithin is taken as a medicine and is also used in the manufacturing of medicines as a natural binder.
Lecithin is also used for treating memory disorders such as dementia and Alzheimer's disease."
*Bet you didn't know that. Yet another brain aid to help with address Neuro Degenerative Diseases. Why don't they prescribe this to us in the medical field instead of prescribing brain meds that have deadly side effects? Rhetorical question, just wanted to prove that there are more brain benefits than we know in making healing medicinal oil.
3. 2 cups (500ml)
Organic Omega 3 enriched Organic, Extra Virgin, Olive Oil, to help keep my blood pressure down and start building brain cells at a faster rate than the brain degeneration. Ingredient directly medically recommended by doctors for Neuro Genesis. Doctors can't argue this. This has a savoury profile when completed.
ORRR
2 cups (500ml)
Organic Coconut Oil that is directly used for headaches, migraines, ALZ, FTD and Brain Cell Regeneration that Doctors recommend as well for overall mental health. This has a semi-sweet profile when completed.
4. Magical Butter Machine aka MB2e - 420 SPONSOR
(Comes with instructions and a brown outside box for stealth shipping)
Safety Gloves & Sanitary Handling
*All hands on deck!

Let's Decarb First!--------------------
Decarboxylation for Dosing THC/CBD for EVOO/Coconut Oil
Comments:
*Use a cookie tray to spread your botanicals out as evenly as possible for consistency, all equal size. Line the tray with foil and place exactly in the middle of the oven, you may have to adjust your baking racks. HANDLE your meds the way you want to be treated, with respect and care. You need those crystals to make it into the oil, avoid heavy handling and wear gloves for sanitary reasons.
*I recommend (Decarb first, "230 F for 1hr & 10min"). If you are using minute amounts, please adjust the decarb time accordingly because you don't want to burn it. Keep in mind, eventually you want the oil to smother the herb to maximize your potency, which is what you want to experiment with until you reach your desired effects.
*To those of you using stalks, although they are totally usable, from my experience you may want to cut them down smaller so you get through the thick skin. Also, you don't want the stalks to cut through the cheesecloth when you strain your oil. Be careful, avoid using stalks if you don't have the right tools to do this safely. The less labour to make oil, the less chance of making a mistake.
*DECARB WARNING — no matter whether you cover your decarb tray in the oven, the smell will fill up your place moderately. Having windows open helps. Doing this at night when people are sleeping is what I do. There are toys out there that do the decarb for you like "Nova" and masks the smell but they are over your budget, nothing wrong with the oven, I use it. But it's good you know there are 420 cooking inventions to help people with disabilities like you and me to get the best bang for our buck.
*THE SMELL - There will a remarkable robust smell coming from the decarb almost like chestnuts when they are roasted, turns the herb into a full body aroma that is not mistakable. Like a properly roasted cup of coffee, the aroma grabs you by the nose and drool commences. You will smell it and it's devine. That is a great nasal way to know you've reached your desired decarb result. The smell travels from your botanicals to roasted herb and that process tells you your meds are ready for your oil.
*The decarbed botanicals do not become hot, they are warm to touch and that's it. But please wear oven gloves at all times, you already know that, but in case someone else is reading that hasn't done this process.
*When you take it out, let it cool on the counter, put foil on top if you're leaving it for a while, the tray will be hot so be careful. Do not put decarb into the fridge for this method. Leave decarb on the tray ready for use.
*Leaves and buds take different amounts of time to decarb, based on different shapes and density. Make sure your buds are no bigger than a thumb print, breaking it down by hand, do not grind, because you want the trichomes intact because of the healing terpenes it contains. Preferably, you end up with a crumble between your fingers thus allowing the oil to breakdown this material evenly. The oil is going to breakdown this plant matter even further.
*If you are making various butter and/or food sprinkle recipes, sometimes it calls for full emulsion where they grind the herb. Even though decarb processes rarely vary, the handling of the herb and the quality of your product will drastically impact your potency for concentrated cannabis oil. Butter you're going for flavor profiles so you don't have to handle with care. Dosing Oil you are going for potency profiles, in my personal opinion. Both are handling Cannabinoids & Flavonoids just in different carrier oils, but you need more terpenes to be intact for when you make dosing oil because of the pure medicinal value it carries.
* I don't have tons of money to be fiddling around with lighter doses. I just exercise micro dosing and problem solved, attack the pain not the wallet. This is where I feel the medical system does us a disservice. Pharma robs us patients blind with pain blockers that really might address the symptoms not the actual diagnosis and cause deadly side effects.
*I now grow individual plants for bud, and individual plants for oil. I prefer to use trim, popcorn bud and some primo bud. I like to use the whole plant instead of just part. But if you're only able to buy bud, you don't have a choice and it is the best. But as a grower, you can start looking ahead to harvest time and look forward to using most of your plant for oil.
*THC will address global pain. CBD will address global inflammation. Longer dosing schedules will have better results. BOTH TCH & CBD must be partners as they work together to address your symptoms. That's why it's good to get a strain that has a 1:1 ratio so you have enough of both compounds to feel better overall when you have more than one medical condition.

Let's Make MB2 Dosing Oil Now--------------------
Comments:
Why do we need this recipe? When you purchase the MB2, the instructions are somewhat vague for whatever reasons. I had more questions than answers in the beginning, then my research revealed the best of all MB2 oil experiences by other growers. This is my condensed version of all the recipe's out there to create the potency we need to attack diseases and all medical conditions. I have tweaked it for brain maximum benefit.
*Get everything laid out on the counter.
* Add 2 cups of organic oil
(If you want to make less then use the stove — top method I recommend)
*Do not exceed Max Line
*Add 1 teaspoon of Lecithin
* Add Bud First - Add Trim and Leaves Last
* Make sure your plant material is covered by the oil and meets the "Min" line on the inside of this machine.
*Set your temperature to the middle button which says 160F.
*Set your time to 8 hours for full potency.
*If you hear your machine wizzin' and blendin' it's started.
*Rest and relax!
*Your finished medicine is very hot!
*Strain your oil carefully using the Love Glove.
*Squeeze out the goodness, it will be hot.
*Let oil cool down while you're cleaning up.
*Place covered oil in the refrigerator for 24hours.
*This is what my oil looked like after 24 hours of refrigeration.
*Feel free to strain your oil with cheesecloth to remove more plant material, but I'm all organic and welcome the plant material that made it through the initial strainer. All personal preference and purity.
*Keep refrigerated until ready to use.

More to think about?----------------
How do you want to dose?
*Be responsible, exercise micro-dosing in the beginning and track your progress.
