Extracting THC With Coconut Oil

GUEST POST from an old friend in Key West Professor Jean Marc dynamite people :) makes Tony Robbins look like a nerd.

Thanks my friend

Q:Why coconut oil?

A: Fat Content

coconut oil is 100% fat and this is what you need to extract the most thc from your material.

What You Need:

Weed, Marijuana,Pot,Hemp :-)

A pot suitable for the amount of weed you are using

Virgin Coconut Oil

A wooden spoon

Water

Stove

Now I’m usually working with at least 100 grams of leaf and crap from the plant. This is quite a bit to fit into 1 – 2 cups of oil. In fact you couldn’t even saturate all the foliage enough to even make it. The way I do this is with water. You simply put a good estimate of needed water into a large pot and bring to a boil. Add however much coconut oil you want to make, and melt it in the water. Add your leaf material and reduce to a simmer. You will wanna check on the pot every 15-20 minutes stirring occasionally and adding water as it evaporates. I usually do this for about 2 – 6 hours.

Once finished you will want to strain everything into a bowl, do not discard the water it contains your oil. A women’s nylon works the best. You may want to let the material cool a bit before ringing it out, be careful not to break the nylon. I like to give it another rinse in hot water and ring it out a second time just to get all the oil out.

Now is the easy part, take the bowl you strained everything into and put it into the fridge overnight. In the morning the oil and water will have separated and since coconut oil is a solid at room temperature, all the oil in the bowl will be nice & hard and floating on top of the water waiting for you to pick it up and put into a dish. Throw the water out and you’re done. Very easy method and a good way to get stronger batches of oil.

The water also keeps the oil from burning the thc out of the leaf since water boils at 212°F or 100°C and thc is a bit higher than that so it will keep the temp under control. Ive been doing this for years and have made some pretty strong batches of a cookies that will make you hallucinate. This recipe is perfect for people who like to make brownies over cookies for taste and other reasons since brownies use less oil than cookies you can make your oil very strong, comparable to various hash oils.

Wow Jean Marc you always amazed me in real life now online as the Gulf Of Mexico separates us but not our friendship. Thanks so much for alerting me that you have SPECIAL rates available for my blog’s guests and that they can contact me if they want to inquire about an ALL exclusive stay in Paradise, God I can’t wait to come HOME :)

People if you need a brake let me know and I will forward you all the amazing details and NO I don’t make anything John and  his wife Flora  took very good care of me while I lived in Key West and I was happy to work for them at their restaurant and art gallery, fun times indeed and I’m forever grateful. One of the  key to success is staying in touch with successful people.

Props to the artist Hope they are not mad :)

Sail on my friend till we cross paths may your journey be smooth :)

My recipe for water bath extraction (the name for this process)…..involves a 2-step procedure:

(1) the leaf material is allowed to steep (just below a simmer) at about 200 degrees F., for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

(2) add your organic unsalted butter, then simmer (but not boil) at 210 degrees F., for another 2 hours.

The longer stovetop time, and lower temps ensure full THC transfer to your oil or butter.

Trust me — either one works muy bueno, and they all keep in freezer with long shelf life!

Egg and cress sarnies are good… makes sense to have in sarnies, if you putting oil in butter. :)

Yoghurt’s are good too… heating oil on a teaspoon a little, mix it in, stick it back in fridge for 20 mins… wolf it down ;)

Nice… or in flapjacks… ;)

As a pain killer : old Cubans used to take the THC as above, then keep it in a bottle in the ground for three months.. Excellent for any back pain and arthritis !!

No woman no cry…waooo :D By the way listen to Kaya (music related to Bob Marley). Sadly the f*cking politicians of Mauritius killed that great singer :( – Anyway your video above made me remember that. Check one of his songs here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwwRw94w_BY

Great use of coconut oil. Different variations on other weed recipes are always fun to try to get the most out of your medical marijuana. I especially like the point the article made that coconut oil is 100% fat so the THC has the highest probability for absorption. For other fun recipes check out http://mrbuds.com/category/recipes/
