Making tincture
- Thread starter Gerald

I wouldn't. I just can't bring myself to use the double boiler or a crock pot. I used a solar oven and it works great. My tincture was a bit too weak for my palate. I poured it back in my trim/larf ABV jar and made good hash oil. I may do another, even better batch of hash oil after my next harvest...if I don't try making dry ice hash. My quibbles with these products is the mess they make. Egads, I have to clean my PAX3 every day, as opposed to long periods with just flower.

How are you making your tincture? If you're using alcohol to extract you don't need a crockpot. That's the method I use and it's super easy. Just decarb your weed, put in mason jar, add alcohol and wait a few, then strain. Whatever I plan on using for tincture I usually mix with about half vegetable glycerin to tone down the alcohol taste a little. Works pretty well for me, couple droppers and I'm good for a few. If you're using glycerin from the start then yeah I would assume you could use a crockpot instead since you have to heat it to infuse. You can use it to infuse coconut oil so I don't see why not. I've never done it that way but from my understanding it's a bit weaker than the alcohol extraction method. Hope that helps.
