i made them last night for the first time. i read 20 million different ways to make them all over the internet and here's what i did: 1/4 of regs i put it in veggie oil on low heat for about 50 minutes til it turned amberish in colour and stuunk. i made the brownies from scratch and added the strained oil in. cooked them on 320 degrees for about 30-40 mins. they tasted like ASS and didn't stone me at all. why?!
First of all I don't know the details of your mistake other than what you have told us, which is not very much. You would have been better off just puting the straight weed right into the brownie mix the way you were doing it. When you are extracting the qualities you want from your weed you need to raise the temprature up to at least 185 F, but that would not matter that much with the oil. If you want to know why it tasted like ass well, I would think it had a lot to do with how you made them. It's all about your process. Vegetable oil is not very good for extracting from weed. Not enough fat content. Olive oil is better but not for making brownies. You want to use butter. Feel free to look at this thread. It will tell you how to make weed butter and may answer a lot of your questions as to why your oil sucked. http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=374276&f=229 My first suggestion would be to make a batch of brownies first to make sure that the recipie that you are using is good. My second suggestion would be to go a head and use a box mix because it is just that much more on the easy side. Good Luck.
I've eaten brownies three times, once with the use of an entire quarter, none of these times have I ever gotten high. Waste. Smoking conserves more anyway, fuck brownies
I've had brownies once, and the taste is horrible, but I definitely got stoned. I've heard taste-wise, they do usually suck?
Well I never needed that dough with has covered fingers and hands...mixing, I guess that we don't kneed dough for brownies. Ya a quarter of mids or something in brownies, not very much...unless it's a small brownie.
its very easy to burn the herb when you try to cook it into oil. you probably did this. it is possible that you didnt burn them too much, but you probably have too much thc in your blood from puffing all day every day that you wouldnt notice the slower to act buzz of eating, especially because im guessing you were smoking while you baked them too. the only good way to eat pot, unless you are a vegan, is to double boil into butter. once you do that you dont want to cook with it, as you could burn it.
youre right i was smoking while i was baking them. definately will use butter next time. if there is a next time. i wasted my weeeeed!
me and a friend have tried a half dozen different recipes and quantities and its never worked. i hear the high isn't as good as smoked though, more of a stoned glue-to-couch rather than head fuck
when you eat them it should be your first high of the day, too low will extract very little THC and to high will burn it, medium low is what I use, it works I just get really tired falling asleep, I need to try it with out smoking first
