Alright, first of all I mise as well introduce myself: I'm an eighteen year old culinary arts student in Nova Scotia, Canada. I've always been fascinated by weed - and I'm now in the experiment stages of making THC pills. You name it, I've made it.. brownies, cookies, scones, weed and shroom pizza, all homemade.
Now I'm not sure 100% if this is working.. I just took 4 pills and I'm feeling a good body stone already.. we'll see, though. First time doing things of this nature are normally unsucessful.
Let me explain the procedure I did: (Pics coming tommorow)
1. First of all, I didn't grind my weed up to a fine dust. I put a gram in a handy chopper, and kept it on until the weed was fairly ground up (bit finer then what you would use in a joint).
2. I used a mordel and pestel
, and added about two tablespoons of vegetable oil (don't bother using olive oil.. what a waste of taste). I ground up the weed until it was a paste like material (dont use too much oil).
3. Add the paste to a frying pan (medium high heat, make sure the pan is fully heated) and cook slowly for 5 min. BE SURE NOT TO BURN THE THC (BASICALLY, IF YOU SEE SMOKE TURN IT DOWN, YOU'RE LOSING YOUR THC!!!)
4. Now, set up a double boiler (Get a big pot, put a bit of water in it, then put a glass bowl on top of it, this way nothing will burn as you get pure steam heat) and add about one heaping tablespoon of margarine or butter and let it melt. Then, add another tablespoon of oil TO the melted margarine mixture.. be sure to check your pot and make sure the water doesnt run out on the bottom. Let simmer away for 5 min.
5. Now, add the paste to the mixture. Stir constantly with a rubber spatula (so do you dont lose anything) for 10 min.
6. Take off stove. Now here's the ultimate trick into extracting the thc out of the weed.. the microwave. This is also the reason as to why I didn't grind the weed into a dust. Take the mixture of butter, oil and weed and put it into a microwaveable bowl.. put a PLATE over it and cook for appx. 1min and 40 seconds (all microwaves are different). Once done, take plate off and what you should see is that all of this gorgeous, green/brown oil has risen to the top and on the bottom is this rock hard piece of shit.. basically, all of the scraps of weed. This technique ensures you get all of the weed out.
7. Now take some empty pills and fill them.. it was easy, I emptied out these vitamin c caps and I took a small spoon and filled it up with them with the mixture.. for about a gram of weed I yielded about 11 pills. This is highly potent shit.
Alright, now that I'm done this article it is safe to say that I am feeling something coming up.. my body is very loose but lazy at the same time and my eyes are slowly dropping. Very cool feeling, it's not an overwhelming stoned feeling like eating brownies - but it's not an underwhelming feeling either.
My suggestion would be to drink at least two litres of water and to have an empty stomach prior to eating these.. (least 2-3 hrs). Then pop a couple of these suckers (always know yourself.. don't overtake or you're in for a shitty trip) then smoke a bowl an hour later.. it's the most relaxing and fun high you'll ever have.
Now, another tip: whenever people extract the thc using butter or oil (I say use both - I find it works one hell of a lot better) they always have it on high heat.. that's a no no folks. Bad idea. Use medium heat (5 out of 10 in terms of heat) and let it simmer.. if something is constantly boiling you're destroying everything (in this case, the thc). This goes not only for this technique - but any food.. sauces, stocks, etc. Let it get to know eachother.
I hope this works for everyone. If you have any questions about anything involving cooking weed (I eat more weed then I smoke.. why not since I can make delicious meals that get you high ) then dont be afraid to ask by all means.
Have a good one.
