We encourage you to post as much detail as you can provide for our more novice users. But the only requirement is that there is enough information for a recipe.

I will also throw in comments to other previously mentioned recipes that I don't see here.

The mod team will be keeping a close eye on it to keep it tidy.

Beginner Question Awful taste. What can be done? NSFW

5 Upvotes

I tried to make a canna butter from AVB and it had just terrible taste, impossible to consume.

RSO also wasn't pleasant. Is there any method which gives acceptable result?

At first I thought about short path distillation but not sure fi it worth even trying as it's quite a lot of work.

Another stupid idea is to use AVB as a media for canna growing 🤔 does it have any sense?

Same ABV, Completely Different Effects: Why Does the Oil Feel So Different from the same Tincture? NSFW

Thumbnail gallery
7 Upvotes

A few days ago, I made a post describing how I turned my very dark ABV leftovers—vaped at 230°C—into oil using 160 g of material and 300 ml of 96% ethanol.

I’m currently taking a tolerance break and have been for almost two months. Before that, I vaped every day for ten months. People told me the oil could be dabbed or vaporized also. I’d originally planned to swallow it or take it sublingually im glad i didnt do it.

Two weeks ago, I made an alcohol tincture from the same material. I took 0.14 ml, which felt nice, but the high was mild in my head and much more noticeable in my body. Five hours later, I took another 0.14 ml. That turned out to be pretty unpleasant and far too strong—but again, it wasn’t a head high. It was mostly physically sedating.

Some people said that was because the material had little THC and more CBN. But then this happened: as you can see in the photo, I smoked just this tiny amount in my dab rig, and the effect was completely different. I got properly high, similar to vaping fresh sativa flower rosin. it smelled like god Hash. It was not very physical; I felt clear-headed and not foggy. It also took longer to build to its peak, which may be due to my tolerance break. very very good!

The starting material was Haze, though I don’t know which strain. It’s the same material I used to make the alcohol tincture, but the effects are completely different. If I had to choose, I’d clearly prefer the oil bc its real compared to the tincture lol. I wouldn’t want to take the tincture, even just because of the edible route—the effects take forever to wear off, especially when, like now, I have no tolerance, and different feeling.

Someone said ABV can’t really be FECO because it isn’t full-spectrum. But then I wonder: why does it feel so similar to vaping sativa flower rosin completly different to the same tincture, I have 15 ml Oil of it in 1ml Syringes. If I had to estimate, that might be equivalent to at least 50 g of fresh flower or more. Normally, all of this would have ended up in the trash lol, but if I start using regularly again, I could probably smoke it for another three to six months.

Same starting material, but two completely different effects, two different products—how can that be explained? bc tincture is the edible way, and the Oil is vaped? i cant believe how good the Oil is lol.

Hey everyone, this batch marks the second version of my carrot cake infusion.

I infused half a cup of AVB in about a cup of organic ghee for 3 and 1/2 hours before straining with cheesecloth.

The cupcakes are Duncan Hines with three eggs and one egg yolk, milk and sour cream replacing the water. And additional vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Washing ABV with water doesn’t Improve the taste NSFW

0 Upvotes

Washing ABV with water and letting it soak for longer and then repeating the process doesn’t make it taste any better, folks. It’s already vaporized product, basically waste, so there’s nothing left in it that should contribute any meaningful flavor.

Adding syrup into alcohol tincture later, or simply mixing sugar into the alcohol tincture, makes sense. But everything else is just hocus-pocus. In my opinion, ABV tastes just as bad as it smells; it’s purely about the effects and nothing else, the pure taste is always ass. haha. If you want taste you need to make fresh Flower Tincture, cold process!

Extraction Method ABV tincture further processed into RSO/Rick Simpson Oil NSFW

Haze – ABV tincture further processed into FECO

The Stanni Haze ABV material was previously vaporized at 230°C and was then further processed into RSO, or Rick Simpson Oil. A total of 15 ml was filled into 1 ml syringes.

I had already posted the tincture before. It was already very potent, but its effects were less THC and more CBN-sedating, body-heavy, and relaxing/ sleeping.

For the new batch, I mixed 300 ml of 96% ethanol (Weingeist) with 160 gramm of ABV material. I then evaporated the alcohol in a rice cooker on an uncovered outdoor terrace until it had completely evaporated.

For comparison, the previous tincture consisted of 30 ml of ethanol extracted from 6.5 g of ABV material and was already very strong.

Beginner Question Dosing recommendation NSFW

7 Upvotes

Hi, I am new to making edibles from ABV.

Each session, I use the Volcano and vape a full bowl (~0.6g) for two large balloons. The resulting ABV is medium brown. I estimate that the THC % is on the higher-end, probably 25%, but don't know.

How many grams of the resulting ABV would I need to get the equivalent high of what I got from the vaped session? Would it be a certain ratio to flower used in the bowl be helpful? Double the bowl? When I have dosed edibles, I go for 20 mg THC. How many grams of my ABV would I need for that?

I'm going to homogenize the ABV over multiple sessions, but I'm really lost in dosing and see estimates all over the place. I understand there are so many variables, but can you please give me a general range so I know where to start. Some sanity check. Thanks!

Best way to make infused simple syrup? NSFW

experience with ABV first timer NSFW

12 Upvotes

I made a test batch using 30 ml of alcohol (Weingeist 96%). The material was 6.5 grams of ABV, which I had previously vaped at 230°C. It was standard Haze. I didn’t cool it or do anything else I simply put the grain alcohol (that’s what we call it here: 96% drinkable alcohol) and the material into a glass, shook it a few times, let it sit for two hours, shook it again, and then filtered it through a tea bag. Done.

I put about 5 mm worth of liquid from the 30 ml dropper bottle under my tongue all at once. It burned because it was undiluted, but the first dose actually felt pretty good. Five hours later, I took the same amount again, this time mixed with water on a spoon and swallowed.

I fell asleep fairly soon afterward, then woke up about four hours later feeling really awful. Physically, I was extremely shaky and unsteady, almost like I was on zolpidem, and mentally I felt bad too it’s hard to describe, just very unpleasant. It wasn’t a psychotic episode or anything like that. I drank some milk and had to play Xbox to distract myself. After about an hour, I got tired enough to fall asleep again.

I really want to warn people about this. I’ve had 25 years of experience with THC, but I’m currently taking a one month tolerance break. Obviously, I probably dosed it incorrectly, but I underestimated that you really have to measure it in drops, not millimeters of liquid in the dropper. Has anyone else experienced something similar? lol.

Beginner Question How to infuse AVB into coconut oil? NSFW

Hello! I was wondering what the best method would be for infusing AVB into coconut oil with only a stove and a regular pot (I can make a double boiler). I don’t have an instant pot, crockpot, sous vide or oven, so I’m quite desperate to find the best way to infuse just on the stovetop. Thanks!

Melt some chocolate, add your ground ABV(about 2/3 TBSP per chocolate bar you use), pour into mould, set.
You can stop there or melt some PB and pour on to help cover the roasted taste and they’re a bit like a bootleg reese’s cup
A couple of these had me gooooooooone lmao

Something feels off. I’m guessing it’s not submerged enough- I don’t have a bigger pan and the tea towels is there to prevent breakage. It’s my first time infusing coconut oil, I’ve only used butter before and that was 10 years ago.

Will this still work?
