This is just what I have found and just what I do . Critique and additions are welcome!I
It would be wonderful if the forum menu could support "Recipies", "Cannabis Kitchen according to old farts"... food: brownies-cookies etc, tinctures, canna caps, salves so that new people can find easily what has been posted without reinventing the wheel including a forum group approved decarb chart.
Decarb and pH sleep together....vital to new folk
Soooo glad it is Friday.
Thumped :) (but gotta post my stretch).

THANK YOU! just saved me a bunch of web time, your effort is much appreciated. Very BIG SMILE....Hope I can repay the favor sometime.
 
keep your eye out for more info..I know there are peeps that know more & do better...but in the mean time-happy to help:)
 
Looking at a range of recipes, I've noticed many use 240 F to decarbo, while a lot of other, particularly on this site, using 220 to 225 F. I'm wondering if these differences can be accounted for by altitude? Lot of western US mountain folks here?
Sites out of the UK and those noting recipes out of western EU, generally use 230 F (or 110 C). Those guys would be much close to sea level, like me.
One in particular noted that some pro pharma guys in Holland published a study that stated that "110 for 110" was the best combination of heat and time. 110 C (230 F) for 110 minutes.
So I have a lot of reading done, but little to no experience. Which will change soon.

I have read others have decarbed for much longer at much lower temps, i.e. 4 hours @ 140°F, has anyone here tried this?

I plan on using my sous vide and trying this but I may go longer to make sure I get full decarboxylation.
 
I got a sous vide too and for the life of me I could not keep the bag properly submerged..forks in the bag etc. i assume you saw the article on it on line?
 
Thanks Tika, my lady is gonna be on that tincture recipe as soon as we can score some EverClear.
Kinda funny that you can buy weed in CA but not EverClear!
 
Thank You Tika! This information is very well appreciated! I look forward to trying some or all of them.
 
"Kinda funny that you can buy weed in CA but not EverClear!"

Makes sense to me. One is medicine, the other is dangerous as hell.
Don't ever cut a plug out of watermelon and fill it with EverClear. Over and over until all your EverClear is gone.
And then by NO means eat any of that watermelon.

EverClear is readily available here.
 
Is Everclear the best to use because of the extremely high alcohol content or could you use some strong moonshine_?
 
Jason, I've been decarbo my hash and trim at about that_ 200 degrees F, for about 2 hrs. Seems to work well but then I've never done it any other way so be good to hear how your experiments/ tests go. Thanks for the info!
 
EverClear is commercial and predictable. Homemade alcohol can have some pretty nasty stuff in it. Although I've tasted some Hubba Bubba in SC that was mighty smooth.
 
Apparently the higher proof releases more trichomes. We had to get it from Arizona. Someone brought us stuff from Oregon as well the 151 Bacardi Rum works well enough if you can't get the high proof EC. I was also given some home brew Rum but it was only 110 proof...151 definitely better.
 
The "problem" with lower than 190-200 proof (95-100% alcohol) is the balance is H20. Which doesn't dissolve anything we want.
At 190 proof, EverClear is 5% water. 151 proof is almost 25% water.
 
Running a cooking test now. Digital induction hot plate, peanut oil in pot with glass container on a screen island. Oil set to 280 F, ambient air testing at 230 F.
Lid on oil pot and double alum on the glass container. Air temp moving from 230-233.
