Is it possible to make gummies out of buds?

[Azimuth]

I do mine in an Instant Pot which, in my view, is one of the absolute simplest ways to make it. There's a couple links in my recipe post to both the infusion post from Bluter, as well as the Instant Pot thread if you've got one of those.

Basically I calculate how many gummies I'm making to figure out the strength I want in my infusions.

For example, 1 gram of a 15% thc strain, extracted into 1T coconut oil at an 85% efficiency is

1,000 × 0.15 × 0.85 = 127.5 mg per tablespoon of oil which is part of the liquid component of the mix.

I'd probably actually work it the other way by figuring out what I wanted for the strength of each gummie and multiply that by the number I'm making and then figure out how much bud I have to infuse into my choice of carrier (vegetable glycerin in my case for gummies).

Or, and what I'll do if I don't need a special small batch, is make a larger one at maximum strength, and then take smaller chunks of that to make different recipies. Maximum strength to me is 2 grams per tablespoon of oil, or 4 grams per ounce of carrier oil/vg, and then for my recipe I'll dilute that into the liquid portion.

Thanks very much for this wealth of info you have shared with me today. I'm glad to have this to refer back to. Definitely appreciate it sir!

Yes. Insta Pot works great.

Any heat source that you can run low enough not to evaporate the good stuff is all you need.

Thank you!

I saw something once before about using a crock pot. I want to check into this as well.
