I'm new at the MB too, but it's hard to go wrong.

My decarb: one oz of dry/cured whole bud in a sealed Ball Jar for 30 minutes at 240 degrees. Virtually no smell. Then into the MB with two cups of Everclear and you're done.

The resulting tincture was nice, but not as potent as I wanted for anti-insomnia use. The good news is that you can easily increase the strength by just evaporating off some of the alcohol. I used a crock pot on "High" for one hour which reduced the volume by about half. That resulted in a near perfect bedtime anti-insomnia med.

Best of luck,

I’ve done grinding both before decarb and after. Haven’t really noticed a difference in results.

Do you just put your bud in then hit a button? Heck if thats the case, forgot the decarb box I mentioned. Get this lol

The first time I decarbed I turned a oz of Bruce Banner into CBD. The next time I used the Magical Butter decarb box and followed their instructions step by step then used the machine to make excellent purple haze butter. I made tincture out of the BB, it’s super relaxing but not what I was going for. I recommend getting their decarb box to. You’ll love the MBM, just gotta get the decarb right then it does all the work.

tincture is my first thing to try, then we'll see.

I use the Ardent Nova to decarb. Worth every penny if you do edibles and tinctures. Never grind before decarb

So my butter machine and bottles came today. got my everclear at lunch. So whats the best decarbing method? Also do leave nuggs whole in the oven? And do I grind it prior to putting in the machine? As always thank you
