it's also gives you fantastic control over dosage and quality. i grow my own flower and make my own edibles and i think i've perfected the right recipes that work through trial and error and it was kinda fun doing it too.

it taught me that i need more hobbies in my life and now i'm pursuing creating a brand new daily driver linux laptop to that end.

Fuck yes.

I make a batch of 35-40 cookies and have the dosage & timing down pat.

i need to make mine sugar free and i'm transitioning into a plant based diet so it works well for me too.

Mine are vegan & there isn't any skunkiness....I have to keep them clearly labeled in the freezer after I make them because you cannot tell the difference.

how do you get the skunkiness out?

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago

So I use about 1g of bud, not the shake for about 350g of butter for the recipe. Turns out more consistent, especially for dosages (works out to about 2.5mg per cookie).

That and my cookies are amazingly good.

Caramels work well for me.

caramel edibles? how do you keep the thc from burning?

[–] lolrightythen@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

245 is the target temp. Only hot enough to burn my hand

And I started with cannabutter if that helps
