Extraction Anyone try this from magical butter?

[McDee]

I have 2 MBMs and 1 Infusium.
I rarely use any of these anymore because they both have minimum volume requirements.
2 cups for MBM, and 1 cup claimed for infusium, but maybe a bit more.

For me, these are easier. No minimum volume, and easy clean up.
Amazon product ASIN B01F47B8AOFinely ground herb can be combined with any amount of oil and baked in these.

For long soak tincture these work well:

My mbm2 doesn't give off any smell until opened. Is there smell using this process? That's main reason I use mbm2, I dont really use it often. I use rosin and only make gummies 99.9%, so dont use oil or butter only for tinctures or syrups.

The smell of oil baking in a beaker isn't much different from the smell coming from MBM.
Decarb smell can be mostly controlled by Ardent Nova/Lift/FX, which can also be used for infusion.

Here's a good recipe for oil pills.
1. Decarb 8 g herb @ 240 F for 40 min. (It will lose a bit of weight)
2. Grind to fine powder.
3. Combine the following ingredients in these proportions to get 50 approximately 40 mg thc size 00 pills:
(7.5 g Decarbed Herb Powder) + (30 g AnyOil) + (7.5 g Lecithin) = 50*(40 mg THC Size00 Pills)
4. Infuse @ 220 F for 40 min.
5. Use a candy dropper to put into size 00 capsules.

The same strategy can be used to make cookies and brownies.
Or this recipe can be multiplied or divided by any number to get a different number or strength.

I was looking at these devices at first, but finally decided to get a Sous Vide machine. I use it to precisely decarb, and also to infuse oil. The only smells are when grinding the buds, and then a slight odour when I open the bag after decarb.

No minimums, although I tend to run a half ounce to an ounce each time. I could just as easily do an eighth.

One of the best features is easy cleanup. I decarb then use the same bag to infuse the oil. By the time I am finished, I only have a sieve and potato ricer to wash. The bag and filter just go into the trash. EZ-PZ.

And, I can leave it on, drop a steak or 2 in there, and enjoy super tender meat.

Disabilities are expensive. I am on a budget, and compared to the MBM etc, I saved at least a couple hundred bucks.

I dont use oils anymore or butter both clog your arteries. Coconut oil may help with cholesterol, but has more saturated fat than butter and that will kill you. There is 208g of saturated fat in a cup of coconut oil or 13g/tbsp. That isnt health to consume, that's like covering broccoli in cheddar and saying its health lol. I use rosin if I make edibles which I haven't had since end of July. Oils are great for infusing just bad for you.

STX Infuzium 420 is basically the MBM with all the accessories for less money. I bought one for $132.00 and have used it three or four times to make cannaoil with olive oil or coconut oil after decarbing. It made extremely strong cannaoil which I use to make edibles. I bought mine through Amazon but they are available on ebay.

I have a infuzium and love it. Still gotta decarb but so easy to make oils or tintures.
Totally worth the money to me.
I want a lift and someday I would love a Levo2.

My lift is the best gadget I have. So worth every cent spent!

Finally broke down and got a butter machine, best deal I could find was on Amazon .

Is that the 1 you bake in too? That's a mean motherfucker lol.

I have Ardent FX, and it's great.
It can hold about 2 oz flower, but that means more smell.
I also have Ardent Lift, and its smell is practically zero.
If Lift is 1 on a scale of 0 to 10, FX is a 2 or 3.
The infusion setting works very well too, and is as good as any other infusion method I've tried.
