Input on amount of oil please. -ThankYou

[Squeeky]

Quick question, Im attempting my second batch of edibles. Last time I made butter and made two batch of cookies. They were ok . . .

This time I wanna make something stronger. I used a coffee grinder to make 43g of trimming powder.

Im curious how much oil I should use?

I plan on using a crockpot and simmering for 3-4 hours.

Do you think I could get two batches, if I could make 8 per batch. It would be a decent size brownie with just over 2.5g.

What would be the best way to strain the oil? The herb is almost a powder.

Thank in advance0 had a death in the fam, and need some relief.

I'm sorry for your loss.
A coffee filter paper or the solid 'gold' filter will strain 99% of the trim, the last bit will be so fine it won't be noticeable in your brownies, take care not to burn the oil or it will taste horrid, and of course you don't want to evaporate your hard work away. 2.5 g of decent trim per serving sounds good, you can always eat another if you have a high tolerance, buon appetito.

Sorry, the amount of oil, you need to get your brownie mix - must be for oil not butter - and start with the amount they suggest and then your brownies should be perfect.

Sorry to hear about your loss!

Rather than worry about how many grams of herb to an ounce of oil, you might seal the material in a fruit jar covered with about a half inch of oil after a good stirring, and cook in hot oil or boil at 212F for around 14 hours or so.

You can replace the material and do it again if you want to bump up the strength, but the best way to get ultra strength oil infusions, is to extract the cannabis oil with alcohol or BHO and then re-infuse into the oil of your choice.

Ultra strength oil isn’t as tasty as medium strength oils, so if you are using it for cooking, you probably would like the jar method better.

I strain the oil through a glycerin tincture press and then paper, but I have also used a pair of panty hose, a permanent coffee filter, and then a couple of paper filters. If you just filter it through the paper, it takes a while.

Once you have the oil, put a drop under your tongue and wait 45 minutes to an hour to determine the effect. Titrate from there drop by drop and you can easily determine oil dosage.

The problem with estimating the mix is that no two batches of plant material are predictably the same, so the oil won’t be either.
