This one seems more dilute. Would that be a good one for me to start with for low dose. I really would only like to make a small batch with 5 grams anyway. Sounds like these would have a little lower dose than yours with 15 grams in a similar amount of oil.

The CBD tincture I use has mct coconut oil. Would it help to add coconut oil or coconut oil w/ lechithin to the tincture?

When I take CBD I keep it in my mouth and breathe, and it seems to give some inhalation vapors to absorb. Never used a medical cannabis THC tincture. Smoking is hard to beat.

Would a vaporizer be too much? Used to use a Vapor brothers vapeorizer, but prefer smoking.

You can always experiment with adding Oil / Lecithin to some of your CBD MCT. I don't find any real difference in MCT vs pure coconut oil as far as effects go but the lecithin may change things.

I'm not a big fan of vaping. I just feel cheated from every toke. It doesn't have the same effects I expect. I'll stick with flame and old school combustion. With Hash it's not like I'm inhaling all that leaf.

Caution.. Start with a single drop of this stuff and add more at 2 hour intervals until your off..
DO NOT LICK THE TOOLS OR THE DISHES !!!
Dosing is problematic as no two people react the same.. A single drop can overwhelm my wife but I need 100x that much.. 4 full caps at a time 3 times a day for my personal relief..
Spins and dry heaves are more then possible at this strength so do take some care until you find your personal happy zone..
Happy Tripping.. It IS a psychoactive drug after all..

1 gram decarbed Hash
5 ml coconut oil (1 teaspoon)
2ml lecithin (1/4 teaspoon)
Heat 220 F for 10 minutes
Freeze
Reheat.

Fills about 10 capsules. Same general strength as the 5 gram version.

Thats a great idea, may be good to combine with CBD to mitigate some of the intensity of stimulation from THC.

THC = Stone
CBD = Anti-stone.
For me and most of the users I know a tiny bit of CBD is good as it softens the sharp edge pure THC is. However, the more CBD you add the less effect the THC has. Eventually to much CBD will completely block any and all THC effects.

Thanks, yeah that would be a good place to start for a low dose, something like 1 g hash 1 tablespoon oil.

Will wait to make it with the liquid lecithin since it works better.

What dose should I start with using that small batch conentration? Should I use a quarter or half capsule first?
Smoking one for you. :smoke:

Yeah, thats why I dont take it in the morning usually. Do sometimes but yeah, just use a small amount, 1:1 seems to be too high CBD.

How many milligrams are most commercially available THC edibles? 10 mg?

10 mg seems to be a pretty standard dose so will start with a quarter capsule= 5 drops.

What is your 5 gram recipe please? Was trying to find it on the picket fences thread.

That slight amount of additional oil won't change the end results much at all.. It should still be wicked strong..
I try and make the same strength oil each time weighing out the hash and measuring out the oil so I know what to expect from each cap.. The bigger (00) caps were to big even for me at this strength.. You can always short fill a few to find your happy number of drops..
A full (0) cap holds about 25 drops of hot hash oil sludge.. For new users or light hits I make up a mess of low drop count caps.. 1.3.6 drops ect so people can find their way without getting overwhelmed by it.. The first few trips can be very intense and you really want to sneak up on this stuff..
It can take 8 hours or more to wear down to a tolerable point so to much is hours of misery and not advised..



ll see if I can rope TTS into helping the next Hashmaster 5000 run for some action shots and some video.. As many caps as he has gobbled in the last week he owes me big time..
We had our monthly boat dock party last night and my neighbor who keeps insisting my hash caps don't work was here so again I give him 4 and said take them one at a time spaced over the usual 2 hour intervals.. Fool promptly gobbles all 4.. ROFLMAO.. 3 hours later he's so blasted he can hardly walk and can't talk.. Can't wait to see what he has to say this morning..

Either base should work fine, I've used BadKat's hash capsule recipe for 12 years and find it to work very well.
Decarb 240 F for 40 minutes (115 C)
5 grams Hash
1 tablespoon Coconut oil (15ml)
1 teaspoon Fearn liquid lecithin (5ml)
Heat 220 F for 20 minutes (104 C)
Fills 30 #0 capsules.

View attachment 18974214

A Mr.Coffee mug warmer, stainless steel cat food dish that fits the hot point. Bent tip glass eyedropper.
Yeah I'd prefer to make it more dilute by using 1 gram has per tablespoon and start as low as possible. I drive and have to be able to work, so I need to work up to the proper dose point. Using the liquid lecithin will help keep it in solution and hopefully get a more accurate dose.

Will try 1 drop wait a couple hours.

I have 4000 empty 00 gelatin capsules now. :smoke:

Thanks for the help!

Is that 50 mg THC per capsule?

If kief is 50% THC, 1 gram would have 500 mg THC. Divided out over 10 capsules, it would be 50 mg per capsule. That sounds like a good place to start. So a quarter capsule would be 12.5 mg THC.

Go even lower and start at 6mg allowing for the double strength effects the boosted lecithin recipe has. Follow the rule you can always take more but the reverse is less true.

The #00 capsules are .95 ml and some 15% larger than the #0 (.68 ml) capsules I use and will hold 25-30 drops rather than the 20 drops the single zero holds.

Haha I ordered the wrong ones I guess. Oh well. they are bigger than needed, but will still work fine. Will start low and determine dose anyway. I can always just measure in the eyedroper since it has mL markings.

Well I do have some 0 capsules to get a feel for it, then I can just put that amount into the larger OO capsules.

Will start with 2 drops.

Will start with the 1 gram kief to 1 teaspoon coconut oil concentration rate, will this be too low of a rate? Have you tried this lower rate before?

Seems to be a good rate, the regular mix is a little stronger. My tolerance, I keep very low by only smoking a gram of flower per day usually. When I smoke I never smoke too many tokes at a time to prevent getting too strong of an effect, but I smoke throughout the day a puff every few minutes.


Thats about the intensity of effect, and potency I'm looking for. Would be great to maintain that for a long time. Edibles hold some promise. But it begines to wear off in the afternoon and requires a few tokes to maintain effect sounds like. Or I could take another small dose at lunch.

Food kicks it in sounds like. So should I take it on an empty stomach? Will that still work?

Do you normally eat breakfast? I dont eat until lunch most of the time. So it may be early afternoon before eating. I do have suppliments, coffee, and water in the morning.

I have a stainless steel 10 ounce rectangular food container. Will be perfect to use.


I was wondering if the glass custard cups might break if put in the freezer after cooking for 20 minutes on 220F.

I take my capsules when I wake up (04:00) and eat a small bowl of cereal about 06:00. No real change as I'm already very stoned by the time I eat.

Glass doesn't like sudden extreme temp changes. I changed to metal after a ceramic dish shattered and I lost 15 grams of Hash and oil into the depths of the oven never to be seen again. As long as you allow time to gradually come back to room temps after removing from the freezer before shoving into the oven it should be ok.

Never used a breakable dish again. Only stainless steel for me.
