I've never seen one at an airport but I have heard that they do have them at some airports. And yes, they are trained to search for cannabis.

Ok, I think I understand how to make them. But the only thing I'm trying to figure out is how to know the right amount of bud/coconut oil to use. I want to make 24 capsules (full). Amount wont be a problem, so if anyone is smarter than me in this one can I get a little help with the amount to use?

Well I don't know if it's helpful but here is how I do it....i melt some coconut oil down and pour in my weed.....too much and I add more weed, too little and I add more oil. This is seriously how I do it so I know its not any help.

Ps....I think X-Crispi mentioned that 1 full tablespoon of coconut oil equals 14 grams. Maybe that will be info you can actually use.

Lol so you just pour in enough weed until it evenly covers the amount of oil you have? Meh, I'm gonna get it one day. I've got everything ready, just waiting on scale and coconut oil lol. I was surprised when I received my pack of capsules. There is like 1,000. I didn't even know I ordered that many! Damn they're cheap

I like it so that there is a few extra pockets of oil when it's all mixed together. I think I have a pic somewhere......brb.

This is coconut oil and ganja in the bowl. This pretty much the amount I like....and pretty much how I judge it too......just by eyeball.

Omg that looks great lol. I can't wait to do this!

edit: Don't mean to be a pest, but besides coffee grinders are there any other ways (that doesn't involve buying anything) to get some nice a finely grounded bud?

I use a regular strainer and am quite happy with the results I get. (Ps...may help to heat your weed a touch before straining....make sure its REALLY dry)

Here's a thread that my hubby and I did on making capsules after getting the excellent recipe from THIS thread.....worth a look through.

Edit:.....umm...duh.....http://boards.cannabis.com/concentra...-s-recipe.html

the best way imo is to do small amounts until you get the temp that works for you. I'm even coming to the conclusion that different strains may do better at a little different temps. The newest batch I cooked I cooked for 3 hours at 250 and got a better result I think....but not by much.

Yeah, next Thursday I'm gonna just do the 1.5g of bud to 7g of coconut oil and see what it does for me. I hope I don't start gobbling them all down before I can use them when I really need 'em haha.

Well, they were pretty much a let-down again...nothing more than just a bit of a stoney feeling this time. I think we have to give up...

I know exactly how you feel. Dad gummit, I'm sick of wasting good weed. I'm not giving up though. I got a new crock pot and am going to approach the situation like a scientist, and not just follow the directions. I don't think you can just follow the directions unless you get lucky. Every crock pot is different, and so is the weed.

I have a some what "crockpot" it only goes to 240°F, that's not with a coffee mug in the pot. It's just a plug in pot, it doesn't have a temperature adjuster. So I was wondering can I still make it with what I have?

I'm REALLY bummed for you guys. I remember the first time I made Flame's recipe I hit it pretty fair. The next several times NOTHING and I went back to "sauteeing" it. Didn't you used to do that Opie....fry it or something?

Quote Opie - xcrispi, I don't know for sure if the temperature remark was directed at me, but I'm pretty sure I was measuring the oil temperature, not the container. I was using a candy thermometer and a laser thermometer, which was consistently 13-14 degrees F lower than the candy thermometer (FYI).

Nope , Not at all Opie . Was just a statement in general - no hidden meanings . If I had any info to help out etc... I would have tagged your name on there as well . I wish I had more pos. input to help actually . I didn't even go as far as you have - I never got out our lil Atomik Laser to check temps.

Peace bro.
Crispi

UnTouched is on a distinguished roadUnTouched is on a distinguished road
Exclamation tried a different method

Tried a different method this time and OMG was this easy.

Went the scientific route like someone said. instead of a crock pot i took my steinel digital heat gun. These guns are digital temp controled and have a ceramic heat source. that was the formerly used before volcano vaporizers were in existances.

i Used to make turkey bag vapor balloons this way all the time.

made a tray over top of it set heat gun on the normal 280-290f, with 3 inch gap, between aluminum tray with oil and herbs and the top of the heat gun. Yes this heated up my house a bit. i had a constant temp hitting the bottem of my tray for 3 hours straight. No smell at all

Caps were perfect. 3 x 00 caps had me in a dazed and confused state for all but 3-4 hours. WeedHound i love you and Flameon thanks again for this recipe/ idea

Next were planning on using the strained coconut oil in other edibles- Rice krispie treats, ice cream, cakes, bread

HMM ? something else to think about would strawberry seeds soak up coconut oil as they do alcohol if so you could fold the oil into milk chocolate and make chocolate covered thc strawberries. YUMMY!!

Yeah, we put it on the burner in a skillet and fried it just until it started turning brown. We found that you can do this with or without a little bit of oil in the pan. Constantly stirring, about 5 minutes. I can't remember what setting we used. Once browned, we stirred it into any brownie or cookie recipe. Tasted like crap, but my oh my what a trip.

Thumbs up Woke Up High....

Last night I went out to a concert and took 2 caps at 7pm and another 2 caps around 9pm. It didn't seem to significantly intensify the high when I took the other 2 caps, but when I woke up this morning at 6am I was still flying pretty nicely....

For all of you who are having multiple failures and are using a crockpot, I suggest that you try using a toaster oven or an oven. I made my first batch with a crockpot and it came out decent, but my second batch that I made using my toaster oven came out easily twice as good. Just try putting the plain butter/coconut oil in the oven for a while and checking the temp a few times before you put the gange into it. This will help you make sure that youre not overcooking it. I had mine around 325 the whole time.

Oh and decarbing is also something that I've come to love. My caps made with decarbed gange come out way better.

AND if anybody is having trouble finding empty caps around where they live and dont want to order off the internet, just go to any health store or any store that sells vitamins, and buy the cheapest ones and just empty them out. It's pretty easy.
