ShiggityFlip's Pressure Cooker Decarb and FHO

So I used a pressure cooker to decarb actual buds yesterday and the results were extremely positive. I put fresh bud in one jar and dried trim in two jars.

I kept the psi at 15 for 45 minutes (a little extra time to make sure decarb would be complete). Then let the cooker cool down and checked the results.

The dry trim stayed dry but now had a darker color and also an abv type aroma. The fresh buds decreased in size by about half and had a changed aroma as well though more terps came through. The fresh buds did have condensation in the jar but just from evaporating their own water. All jars had lids with the band screwed on snug but not tight.

Dry trim still dry: this shows water only exits the jar and doesn't enter from the cooker.

Fresh buds wet but decarbed. Water must have been able to boil off and exit the jar because the buds were wet but not sitting in pooled water.

I blended the fresh buds with olive oil and blended then together then put back in the quart jar and boiled the water bath around the jar for 2 hours.

I used the trim to make coconut oil in the mbm (4oz trim, 3cups coconut oil, plus 3 tbs lecithin. 4 size "0" caps (about 2ml total) set me on my butt, couchlocking me and incapacitating me for a few hours. (Decarb successful lmao)

The fresh oil I removed the water off the bottom with a pipette and mixed in half a tbs lecithin. I took two caps about an hour ago and they are settling in for a nice buzz. Speedy and good as the buds I used were Dynastygenetics Bluniverse which has a nice speedy head buzz and a wonderful body buzz.

Again I know this isn't RSO but I decided to add it to the conversation as some of us will want to decarb buds this way also. And fresh harvest oil made this way was just as tasty for me.
