Help with pretty much everything

[HigherTheHigh]

Hello everyone
I know there is probably hundreds of these types of threads but I wanted my own so I could put in my signature and add recipes along the way as I'm really sick of smoking, so edibles it is, I loved them last time and regret massively not making more and sticking to them.

I currently have 25g of bud, i want to create jelly babies, I have 280ml cold pressed coconut oil but I can get more of needed, unfortunately I don't know the thc % but if I had to guess around 14-15% and I'd like to get around 300-400 quality jelly babies.

I need to know how much coconut oil I put to every 25g, I will be turning around 20-30oz of bud into jelly babies to be frozen and used daily, I also have some Mylar bags that I plan to put around 5-10 in but I may cover them all in citric acid to give them that sour taste but also to preserve them unless someone has a preservative suggestion as that would be great!

There's a calculator online that I can pretty much get the rest from it's just this part in stuck with on the ratio.

Few questions as I've never tried a genuine 10mg jelly baby or similar, can someone tell me what the feeling would be like?

I would like each of my jelly babies have enough luck for you to feel it but not overly powering, maybe take 2-3for a real knock out sleep.

Thanks.

Do u have a recipe for them

 

[HigherTheHigh]

I'm going going off a website calculator they have but if you have one it would be great .

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Nope, I've only done gummies, love them

But it's hard to help u without seeing a recipe

I believe making jelly bears requires a different process than oil infusion. I don't think there should be any oil when making jelly bears. You can make some pretty good chocolate from the infused oil though.

What were they like bud? I have a recipe that makes 250-300 from 20g, I will try write them down this afternoon.

 

[HigherTheHigh]

The calculator says to make coconut oil with bud then use the outcome.

 

[nickeluring]

What calculator is that?
I just quickly googled recipes for cannabis gummy bears, and it says to use tincture. That is very different to oil, alcohol based and a couple of hundred times stronger or so...

Just read

Jelly babies = Gummy Bear

I've made them a bunch with infused oil, works great

Basic recipe here

• 1/4 cup weed-infused coconut oil
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 oz unflavored gelatin
• 6-oz package Jell-O (pick your favorite flavor!)
• A silicone mold


Now the strength of the oil is upto u

I'll go 2/1 ratio of weed to liquid
16g of bud to 8oz oil, seems good for me

It was the how to edibles site bud, thanks chris, so no lethecin in that one?

 

[Chris Scorpio]

I always forget lecithin, but it goes in the infused oil

 

[HigherTheHigh]

Thank you, I'm going to infuse the coconut oil with the bud tomorrow, I usually keep it just below simmering for about 4 stirring often as I can is that about right? I usually do butter.

How do u do it??

Dbl boiler??

 

[HigherTheHigh]

I do have a slow cooker but because it's very little material it would be a very thin layer on the base so I was planning on either putting the mix in there or use a bigger pan with water and sit the silver bowl in and book the pan and that way I could do it for around 6 hours, is that somewhere near?

I decarbed my bud today at 120°c for 25 mins that was also from a website.

I prefer the dbl boiler method if not using an Instant pot, less chance of burning

 

[HigherTheHigh]

I know I burnt the butter in a small pan lol I know what you mean, if I had more plant material I would do it in the slow cooker.

My plan is to make 1 batch of gummy bears with 10g of coconut oil,try them and if needed I will adjust the next batch, if these work and I can actually feel something a lot more intense then I know it will help me so then I will be turning all of my yield into coconut oil then be frozen ready to make more edibles .

 

[HigherTheHigh]

So after decarbing and infusing 20g of bud to 250g of coconut oil and after finishing infusing for a little over 6 hours I ended up with 200g of Coconut induced cannabis oil ready for making 300 gummy bears with tomorrow.

 

[HigherTheHigh]

So I made a batch up, I used 60ml of coconut and and ended up with 235 gummy bears.

I used a calculator online which was absolutely no wear near so my question is I have 100ml left oil, could I put that all into the same amount of mix as today?

This was my mix today:

100g Jelly cubes
30g gelatine
160ml of water

I'd rather ask before I potentially naff a batch up.
