Extraction Hershey edible

[McDee]

If I melted some coconut oil (12ml) with some Hersheys chocolate would it mix and solidify with the chocolate? I would put in frezzer when done. I do that with my coconut oil and it gets pretty hard. 12ml is 1 dose size of mold. Gets you good, I get 10 cubes in half cup roughly. I eat them by themselves so should work just want to know if would mix? Thanks.

Should work well @Mcdee
I make sugar free chocolate candy using canna coconut oil and cocoa powder. Melted candy bars work too.

Refrigerator should be cold enough for it to keep solid.

Wbats everyone's prefered method to make good cana coconut oil? I tried to infuse some wax into it but it just seemed to clump. Any tips?

Yea like dab. I decarbed in the oven. Got the coco oil nice and hot and added the wax. It worked and infused but I dont feel I got it all in there.

 

[bad dragon bzzz]

maybe add the oil to the wax a few drops at a time to get it loosened up then add the rest of the oil ? rather than add the wax to the oil,just thinking of the few times ive ventured into the kitchen.
decarbed bud works a treat cause all the tiny thc crystals fall off the bud into the oil.
good luck.

Any concentrate should easily dissolve in warm oil.
Most concentrates aren't decarbed, so that is necessary BEFORE blending with oil.
240 F for 40 min works well.

If you don't mind slight herb taste, those chocolates are most easily made by grinding decarbed herb to powder, then just mixing it into warm chocolate.
I do this frequently with nutella, and it has maximum potency.
Haven't done it with chocolate yet, but I expect it to work about the same.

Making strained oil first is time consuming and wasteful, because strained oils lose about half their potency to the straining process.
Nearly as potent, but tastier chocolates can be made from tincture/FECO.
But FECO also requires much effort.

Best bet? Start with bud!

Way easier and cheaper and can be very potent. I always add lecithin. It helps get the good stuff into the oil or alcohol when you infuse it, and enhances absorption through your gut and skin, thereby making it (a lot) more powerful.

....And its brain food. Every stoner needs brain food.

I haven't had great results with wax but at least it was useable. I can macerate shatter slowly into a small amount of coconut oil until it dissolves.

I haven't tried that, I don't make sweets.
You'll get better advice from another member but let me "think out loud" for the fun of it. I am curious what others have to say.

Chocolate is already a fat emulsion. Is there enough emulsifier for that greater amount of fat?

I would experiment with non-medicated coconut oil and different chocolates, small scale. Use a double boiler on low heat and be ready to stir. Allot. I think it will be a slow and gradual process, increasing the amount of oil that dissolves into the chocolate slowly, one step at a time.

??You might need a go-between like lecithin ?? Its cheap.

Honestly though, I would probably mash coco powder and icing sugar into softened oil. But I am not a candy chef.

I use sunflower lecithin. It's in the coconut oil. I don't even need the chocolate, I just eat the coconut oil cube. I want to give some people some edibles but don't feel like making a batch of 3 dozen cookies lol. 1 cube on empty stomach will fuck you up kid! If you have eaten then your just good and social. I got the idea from @Mañ'O'Green post about New Years Eve. Doesn't have to be culinary, just want to be able to give them a discrete treat to eat while out on their feet. Word. Thanks for the input everyone, I think this would be a fast portable edible that wouldn't be noticed anywhere. Beats the time I took making 30+ cookies. I can make 1, or 2 in 10-20 mins. This way not even making anything you could melt in microwave on defrost or lower, stir together, and pour into mold and done. 5-10 mins in freezer and good to go. If you want to make it fancy, that's cool too. I am getting lazy anymore, I just use box mixes lol. Don't care if it taste good just want it to work. I guess that's why I just eat the coconut oil cubes hahaha.

Lmao, the texture of just coco oil scares me. I like cooking with it because its easy and infuses well. I prefer to use bho or wax for a less "plant" taste. But even when I infuse coconut oil with herb It doesn't taste as planty as butter does.
