Medicated Coconut Oil Recipe
Edibles are very much a part of any good pain management program with Cannabis. Smoking is great for initial pain relief for many to fall asleep but it is hard to maintain that level of comfort throughout the night. For when smoking risks a cough that will throw out a back, when discretion is a must and many other reasons edibles may be the answer.
There are a couple choices when making edibles, first what to use to extract. Butter, glycerine, oil’s… Then deciding what raw product to use hash, trim, bud…
I am a big Fan of Coconut Oil using dried flower. I know its not as precise as the dosing with hash, but I feel it has more soul to the finished product then using a already extracted product.
From edibles to chap stick to even lube (yup lube) Coconut oil can make a ton of products.
I don’t decarb my flower due to my longer cook down, I’ve found it completely unnecessary with my process.
Dosages for oral tincture are from .2-.6 ML/CC, for food recipes a teaspoon per person works well for main dishes or 1/3cup for larger portion desert dishes such as rice crispy treats giving around 15 edible treats.
Here is how I make my Coconut Oil.
1.Needed items. Crock Pot, mason jars, coconut oil and french press
2.Material. I use bud and leaf about 1oz bud per 8oz coconut oil
3.Heat Coconut oil on low in crock pot for about 45min just to warm a bit then I add my bud. Use scissors to cut in small pieces (I’ve found grinding down material adds more a green flavor in finished product) and add to heating coconut oil.
4.Let cook down on low for about 6-8 hours, stirring every 1hr or so. (you can cook for as short as 4hrs but I’ve always been happiest with the results from 6-8 personally)
5.After its cooked down on low for 6-8 hours, I spoon material and liquid into a french press.
6. Press pushed down its ready to pour into your mason jars.
7. Seal the lid and you have your cure all Coconut Oil. This method works for most oils, I’m also a big fan of Olive Oil.
