Making Cannabis Edibles

Your other option to acquire Cannabis edibles is to make them yourself. The process is quite straight forward as long as you have all the ingredients ready, but expect to be in the kitchen for a few hours till you get the process down. The procedure makes it possible to infuse cannabis into various fatty food products, such as brownies, cookies, muffins, or even savory dishes. The key ingredient in these edibles is cannabis-infused butter or oil, commonly known as cannabutter or canna-oil.

To make cannabutter or canna-oil, you will need to decarboxylate your cannabis first. This process involves heating the cannabis at a low temperature to activate its psychoactive compounds, such as THC. Once decarboxylated, you can mix the cannabis with butter or oil over low heat for several hours, allowing the cannabinoids to infuse into the fat. The mixture is then filtered out to remove all the plant material, which leaves you with clean infused oil or butter ready to make space cakes and space pastry!

Once you have your cannabutter or canna-oil, you can use it as a substitute for regular butter or oil in your favorite recipes. However, it's important to note that the potency of homemade edibles can vary, so it's crucial to start with a small dose and wait at least 2 hours for the effects before consuming more. Cannabis edibles are typically stronger than traditional joints/smoking Cannabis, so make sure you start nice and slow to prevent a bad trip from consuming too much.

Things to consider when purchasing Cannabis edibles:

  • The Reputation of the Cannabis Shop: As a general rule you'll want to avoid street dealers ESPECIALLY when it comes to edible goods, as in reality you never know what you're putting in your body, bad experiences can range from getting ripped off for a normal non-infused brownie or worst case buying something laced with hard drugs such as Ketamine, etc.. Tourists are always at a higher risk of getting scammed, so do your research online and stick to reputable vendors such as Aromatic Buds Cannabis Pastry.

  • The Dosage: Most official infused pastry will include information regarding how much Cannabis flower was used in each piece or might even contain an estimate of active THC per piece in Milligrams. Brownies, Cookies and Muffins usually contain 1 gram of infused Cannabis per portion yielding around 100-120mg of Active THC. The Edible THC Dosage chart chart below is great at helping you figure out an optimal amount for you.

Knowing this information it's imperative to plan ahead and make sure you don't need to drive or operate any machinery when under the long duration of influence offered by edibles.
