making a topical "HERBall Cocoa Butter Rub"...(also edible)
what you will need..
1 100% cocoa butter stick (organic if ya can) and plastic tube that comes with it....
2.5 grams of pure THC oil or whatever you think you need....(2.5 grams)
1 small pan thats easy to pour out of or a turkey baster to suck up the butter and inject it back in the tube...
1 of something to stir and break up the THC oil in the pan with...something that a lot of butter wont stick to....
1 cup with ice and a bit of water or something of the sort to keep the tube cold so the butter doesnt stay liquidy and dribble out the bottom (the container isnt sealed)... however you could very well use something else to store it in...
1: melt the butter on low heat ( 2 or 3 on the dial) be careful as i believe cocoa butter burns at a lower heat....
2: once the butter gets about half way melted go ahead and throw the resin in (not the best pic)....
3: move the resin back and forth and what not so it starts to break up, do this until it completely dissolves...take as long as needed...
5: once you achieved this consistency dump back into the original container and let sit for about 5 minutes...
4: get the container that the cocoa butter came in and rap tinfoil or plastic around it so you can submerge it in ice water without water being able to get back in the tube...basically just seal the bottom so water cant get back in...
6: remove from water, set on plate standing up and put in freezer for a few minutes...you could probably just put in fridge... once completely hardened its done and applicable...
a sort of before and after...
Cocoa butter is edible however this was made as a topical rub for someone...HIGHly potent....
UPDATE:Using tin foil as a mold instead of the plastic container since the butter is HOT and might cause the plastic to release a toxin or who knows what...just being cautious
and then just slide the tube back over the butter to get it back into the tube, i had some excess butter that scraped off the sides that i smushed back on the top.... re'refrigerate and it will look like normal...
