Crafting Your Own THC Tincture: With & Without The MagicalButter Machine
Hey there, fellow herbal enthusiasts! 🌿 Ready to dive into the magical world of tinctures? Today, we’ll guide you through creating your very own THC tincture. Whether you’ve got a MagicalButter Machine at the ready or you’re working with basic kitchen equipment, we’ve got you covered.
Why Tinctures?
Tinctures are a fantastic way to consume cannabis. They’re discreet, easy to dose, and can be mixed into your favorite drinks or taken sublingually (under the tongue). Plus, they have a longer shelf life than many other cannabis products.
1. Crafting THC Tincture With The MagicalButter Machine
The MagicalButter Machine makes the tincture process almost…well, magical. Here’s how you use it:
Ingredients:
- 7-14 grams of decarboxylated cannabis (finely ground)
- 2-4 cups of high-proof alcohol (like Everclear)
Steps:
- Decarboxylation: Before anything else, ensure your cannabis is decarboxylated. If it’s not, bake your finely ground cannabis in the oven at 240°F (115°C) for 30-40 minutes.
- Mixing: Place your decarboxylated cannabis in the MagicalButter Machine.
- Add Alcohol: Pour the high-proof alcohol over the cannabis.
- Set & Forget: Set your machine to the 130°F (54°C) setting and let it run for 4 hours.
- Strain & Store: Once completed, strain your tincture into a dark glass bottle using a cheesecloth. Store in a cool, dark place.
