opietaylor Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I am looking for a good method of combining Simpson Oil with Glycerin and also Simpson oil with suckers (lollipops). Anyone out there with some good recipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRStoner13 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 Im not sure that would taste good but I would cut the RSO 5 ml to 16 ml of Veg Glycerin. I use only THC infused Veg Glycerin when making lollipops. They turn out potent if you add some keif to the tincture while its in the mason jar/crockpot. Best of luck to you.

peanutbutter Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 It is difficult to get RSO into glycerin. Glycerin tends to absorb water soluble material. Cannabinoids are oil based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnachris Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 (edited) It is difficult to get RSO into glycerin. Glycerin tends to absorb water soluble material. Cannabinoids are oil based. I thought that you could make a glycerin based tincture?? Edited February 1, 2012 by donnachris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEMP4LIFE Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 i need rso oil recipe for making medables and i have had sucess blending rso in glycerine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutbutter Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 1/2 cup peanutbutter. warm in the microwave about 40 SECONDS. Just enough to melt. Add 1ml RSO make sure to mix very very well. 1 tsp is a good dose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cristinew Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 100mg rso 1/2 teaspoon of peanut butter gulp it down, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickeydee Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Mix it with butter. Just make sure both are warm enough to make a consistent blend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutbutter Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Mix it with butter. Just make sure both are warm enough to make a consistent blend. Yes RSO easily makes oils and butter for baking. 1 ml RSO into the oil or butter for one batch of brownies. Or whatever you are going to bake. The pb is more direct. Mix and you have the eatable instantly. No baking required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorium2 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 You can just put any of your pure cannabis oil in a gel capsule you can buy cheaply at the health food store. It works great just like that. No cooking required at all. You don't taste it. The dosage is more easily adjusted that way too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I wood Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Here is recipe that I use to make hard candies. ( Add some sticks and you have lollipops.) 1 cup sugar 1/3 cup corn syrup 1/3 cup hot water 1 tsp citric acid 1 ml lemon flavor extract 2 ml rso Put water, corn syrup, and hot water in small pan with candy thermometer on medium heat. As the everything liquifies turn up the heat, it will boil rapidly. Stir often. It should take about 20 minutes to get the temp up to 300 degrees. Remove from heat and add flavor, citric acid and rso while wisking to a uniform consistency. At this point I pour into lightly oiled candy molds filling 200 cavities, this gives 200 pieces with 10 mgs rso each, if they are all uniform in size. Lollipops could be made by simply pouring hot goo over a stick on parchment paper, or more accurately with lollipop molds. If goo starts to stiffen up while still in pan put back on heat to reliquify. Making a test run without rso is a good idea. Halfing the recipe works well also. Any dosage can be had by adjusting rso added and/or total pieces made. This candy will pull moisture from the air and become a sticky mess waiting to happen, keep in a ziplock bag to avoid this. Hope this helps, Ric Edited July 30, 2012 by I wood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indica Jones Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Has anyone used a different type solvent than iso for RSO? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutbutter Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 switched to naphtha a while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I wood Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Acetone from the start. Tried iso once and found it took way longer and was slightly thicker, muddier. Could not tell a difference in effects though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indica Jones Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 what about using MEK? fast drying solvent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutbutter Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 what about using MEK? fast drying solvent Not as selective as a hydrocarbon solvent. There are sets of compounds that are not THC etc. that alcohols take out of the plant matter. Most of those I wouldn't want in my RSO are taken up by alcohols. As MEK and acetone absorb water like alcohols, I would assume that they would take up similar compounds as alcohols. The main ones I try to screen out by solubility properties are things like mold toxins. Mind you, I'm NOT talking about SPORES. I'm talking about the compounds that the molds produce. These dissolve in solvents. They tend to be readily taken up by alcohols. Want something fast? GW pharm uses pentane in their extraction process. A five carbon hydrocarbon cooks off faster than a six carbon hydrocarbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Lab Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I've successfully made activated cannabis oil doing a butane extraction first, followed by a winterization step to remove the waxes and lipids using a more polar solvent. Once that's done, we remove the polar solvent using heat and vacuum. Then we heat the oil in an oil bath at 225+ to decarb, cool, and draw into a syringe. Don't know if I can call this "RSO", but the effects of it are very similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Lab Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Exactly. You can also use 190 everclear, high grade acetone, or something else with a similar polarity index. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Chloroform ( trichloromethane ) is an excellent solvent; it leaves no residue and does not extract the water solubles. Does anyone know where to obtain it? I haven't had access to any in years. I use distilled Everclear ( yes, I distill the Everclear. Easier than starting from scratch! ) in my extractor for potables, and 98% isopropyl for lotions, linaments, etc. I would guess the distilled proof to be around 180 ( 90% alcohol ) but that 10% still lets too much chlorophyll and other water solubles through. I am curious about Naptha. I never tried acetone, or tuolene. And I am definitely trying the pentane, thanks PB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd stay away from the chloroform .. my preference for several reasons. I've exposed myself to way to much iso over the last three years. Wash my hands with it etc .. Then I realized I may as well be drinking it. With the amounts that soak into the skin. Whatever anyone does with these extractions, please keep plenty of air flow through the area. First to reduce fire hazard. Second to reduce exposure to yourself. If you're going to be doing this more than once or twice the fumes become a chronic exposure. I urge folks to keep that to the absolute minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 So beyond exposure do you see any reason to refrain from chloroform? My units are completely sealed; I never need to expose myself or others to the solvent in any way. The only thing left is the extract after the evap unit is opened.

Scooter Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 PB, my units are sealed completely. I am never exposed to the solvent. My evaporation unit is positive-pressure and exhaust filters through water first then 3 charged charcoal filters and 4 gas permeable membranes. I only handle the final extract.
