One of the many perks of working with THC distillate is its simplicity when it comes to dosing. Say goodbye to guesswork and hello to precision! With our handy syringe-form distillate, measuring out your desired potency is as easy as pie.

Mastering Edible Dosing: A Comprehensive Guide

When it comes to cannabis-infused edibles, achieving the perfect balance of potency is key to a delightful experience. Fortunately, with our 10ml distillate boasting 95% THC potency, dosing your homemade treats has never been easier. Let’s delve into the art of dosing and explore some essential tips to ensure your edibles hit just the right spot.

Understanding Dosing Basics

Dosing cannabis-infused edibles involves calculating the amount of THC (or CBD) in each serving to achieve the desired effect without overindulging. Our 10ml distillate simplifies this process with its precise potency and convenient packaging.

Calculating Infusion Doses

Here’s how to calculate infusion doses:

Using Total THC Content (in milligrams):

Divide the total THC content by the number of servings.
Example: If you have a 10ml distillate containing 9500 mg of THC and you make 20 servings: 9500 mg ÷ 20 servings = 475 mg THC per serving.

Using THC Percentage:

Multiply the volume of concentrate (in milliliters) by the THC percentage, then multiply by 1000, and finally divide by the number of servings.
Example: For 10ml of distillate with 95% THC potency and 40 servings: (10 ml x 0.95 THC x 1000) ÷ 40 servings = 237.5 mg THC per serving.

Using these formulas allows you to tailor the potency of your edibles to your preference. If you find them too strong, you can adjust by using less concentrate or cutting the servings into smaller portions.

Dos and Don’ts: Navigating the Infusion Journey

As your trusted partners in exploration, we want to ensure your culinary adventures are nothing short of extraordinary. Here are a few tips to keep in mind along the way:

Dos:

Properly label and store all infused ingredients, including dosage information.

Bulllee’s Cannabis Distillate Infused Fudge

Take your time with this recipe – it’s a labor of love that promises delightful returns! Play around with different terpene profiles from various strains to introduce unique flavor dimensions to your fudge.

Temperature Management: Achieving the correct temperature is pivotal for perfect fudge texture. A candy thermometer is recommended for accuracy, though you can use the soft-ball method if needed. Remember, overheating can lead to grainy fudge, so caution is key. Adjust temperature for altitude to ensure optimal results. For instance, if water boils at 197 degrees at your altitude, your soft-ball stage temperature would be 223 degrees.

Dosing Consideration: With cannabis distillate containing up to 95% THC, each gram yields approximately 950mg of THC. Keep this in mind when determining dosage. If you slice your fudge into 10 pieces, each piece will contain around 95mg of THC. Adjust portion sizes accordingly for desired potency.

Ingredients

2 cups white sugar
1 cup heavy cream
4oz. 85% – 99% cocoa chocolate (e.g., Lindt 99% Cocoa EXCELLENCE Bar)
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 gram Cannabis Distillate (equivalent to approximately 1 milliliter)

Instructions:

In a heavy saucepan, combine 2 cups of white sugar and 1 cup of heavy cream. Whisk until thoroughly blended.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until it just begins to bubble. Cease stirring once bubbles form.
Allow the mixture to boil unstirred until it reaches the predetermined soft-ball stage temperature. Use a candy thermometer or adjust for altitude as discussed earlier.
Remove the mixture from heat and let it cool undisturbed until it reaches 130°F.
While the mixture cools, melt 4oz. of chocolate in a double boiler over medium-low heat. Stir until smooth.
Add 1 gram of Cannabis Distillate to the melted chocolate and stir well to incorporate.
Maintain the chocolate-cannabis mixture at 90-95°F while the cream-sugar mixture cools.
Once the cream-sugar mixture hits 130°F, add the chocolate-cannabis blend and 2 tsp of Vanilla Extract. Blend vigorously with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and dulls (approximately 10-15 minutes).
Line a 9×13 inch pan with wax or parchment paper. Spoon the mixture into the pan, smoothing it out evenly. Allow it to cool on the counter for at least 2 hours.
Once cooled, score the top of the fudge with a knife to mark your desired portions. Refrigerate until firm.
Once chilled, cut the fudge into pieces or snap them apart along the scored lines. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for longer storage.

Indulge in these THC-infused treats responsibly, as they may not be the healthiest option, but they’re certainly a delightful occasional treat or party favor!

Tips for Adding THC to Gummy Recipes

When incorporating THC, particularly in the form of cannabis-infused coconut oil, into gummy recipes, it’s crucial to consider potential stability issues.

Here are some factors to keep in mind and tips to prevent instability in THC-infused gummies:

Oil Separation: THC-infused coconut oil may separate from the water-based gelatin mixture, leading to uneven distribution of THC and potential inconsistency in potency among gummies. Ensure thorough emulsification by continuously stirring the THC-infused coconut oil into the gelatin mixture. Consider using emulsifiers like lecithin to improve stability.
Gummy Texture: THC presence can affect the texture and firmness of the gummies, resulting in variations in consistency. Adjust the gelatin ratio or incorporate pectin alongside gelatin to enhance texture and stability.
Storage Conditions: Improper storage conditions, such as exposure to heat or moisture, can accelerate THC degradation and lead to gummy instability over time. Store THC-infused gummies in a cool, dark place, preferably in airtight containers in the fridge, to maintain stability and potency.
Testing and Quality Control: Regular testing of THC-infused gummies for potency and stability is crucial to ensure consistency in dosage and quality. Conduct batch testing using reliable methods to adjust recipes and manufacturing processes accordingly.

Implementing these strategies will help mitigate potential stability issues when adding THC to gummy recipes, resulting in consistent, high-quality THC-infused gummies for an enjoyable experience.
