So do all that, then continue with the regular process of adding oil and cooking for the right number of hours? I thought that above 300, it started to vaporize the THC off with no way to contain it...I am guessing that if I left it in for more than five minutes it would start doing that? I don't need to increase my cooking temp for the whole crock-pot process, though, right? It has been between 225 and 280 for the past two batches of caps, but that was one thing I was somewhat worried about.

Thanks for your help and ideas, Max! It really makes me want to try it again for sure now!
