Create your own Edible Experience

Sometimes don’t you wish THC was infused in everything. Dosed properly, it can be an incredible high. The edible companies have only perfected what you can do on your own and it’s quite simple. There is a possibility to infuse any thing you make, you just need to choose which option is best for you. 

Now keep in mind, the one thing edible companies have that we do not is precision. Even for them this can be tricky. With better technology, they can become more precise in the dosages. An edible experience can either be a delight or a trick. So, please be extra cautious when creating your own and who might have access to them.

Cannabutter is one of the most common ways to make homemade edibles. What do you use butter for? Probably not just brownies and baked goods. Well, this is one of the simplest ways to infuse any edible that requires butter in the recipe. If you’re not a butter fan, that’s not a problem. Any fatty oil, like coconut oil and olive oil, can also be an amazing option. 

“Tip: If you choose the butter, keep an eye on the butter as it cooks. It can burn easily.”

Here’s what you need: 
1 cup butter
1 cup (7-10grams) of ground decarboxylated cannabis

De-carb-oxylation is the main reason making our own edibles seem impossible. It sounds complicated but it’s simply baking your weed. It’s not something you can pick up at your local dispensary. You can pick up strain specific, type specific options you know work for you. Ask your budtender. They can help guide you toward the experience you want. 

The decarb process is easy. Leafly details how to decarb the cannabis as well as make cannabutter. This is your first step. Skip this step and expect a very different to no experience. 

“Preheat your oven to 245ºF. Place cannabis buds on a non-stick, oven-safe tray. Cover the tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Insert the tray into the oven and set a timer for 30-40 minutes.” 

“Tip: Older, drier cannabis may require less time.”

“Tip: you can also set your oven to 300ºF and heat for 10 to 18 minutes, although low-and-slow is the recommended approach when decarbing to better preserve the cannabinoids.”

Stop in and ask our budtenders how to create your own experience.
