SOUR SPACE CANDY HEMP CBD FLOWER: OIL/BUTTER MATERIAL

This Sour Space Candy flower is ideal for making butter or oil at home for use in topicals, and/or edibles. This flower has a good concentration of phytochemistry (cannabinoids and other plant compounds that are beneficial) but is cheaper as it is a darker color and is not as aromatic as the smokable flower options we have listed on the site. This flower is a great option as it is cheaper but will still offer a great effect and be therapeutically beneficial when cooked down into an oil or butter.

WHAT CAN I MAKE WITH CANNA BUTTER OR OIL?

You can make oil or butter at home and then use it to infuse edibles. You can also just eat it and don’t have to bake it into anything. If you use MCT oil you will have a great little tincture! Freeze little dots of the butter on parchment paper and you can take them like you would a capsule or softgel. You can also make topicals with it.

WHY YOU SHOULD MAKE CANNABUTTER OR OIL:

The main answer is that it’s fun and easy to do! But also it is great for people who are using cannabis or CBD for medical purposes. By making it at home you will save lots of money over buying ready-made products. But also, we sell those ready-made products if you feel like skipping this process.

TIPS FOR MAKING CBD (HEMP) OIL & BUTTER AT HOME:

Don’t Buy Trim:

Many people make the mistake of buying trim to make oils and butter at home but trim contains a lot less phytochemistry and while its really cheap, it also won’t be as potent or effective. If you are in a pinch you can use trim but if you can afford to get actual flower (like with this listing) that is the best way to go. You will get a stronger concentration of the compounds your trying to extract into the oil and butter by using flower.

Don’t Buy Nice Flower:

Many people also make the mistake of buying nice tightly trimmed A-Buds. A-Buds are flower buds that are bigger, dense, nicely trimmed, and ideal for smoking. You don’t need the flower you are using to make oil and butter to be dense, big or tightly trimmed. The tight trimming just adds to the cost and machine-trimmed flower or even untrimmed flower will work very well.

Untrimmed Vs Trimmed Flower:

If you are going to be making topicals with the oil or (shea) butter then untrimmed flower works great and will save you money. Trimming flower adds a lot to the final cost of the flower. Having more fan leaves on the untrimmed flower will just mean more chlorophyll in the final extract which is fine for topicals but will make them greener. If you are going to eat the butter or oil and/or do not want it to be greener than necessary then trimmed flower will be best.

Regular Size Buds vs Smalls:

Again, size is not a big factor when making butter and oil so buy budget flower that is smaller or big buds that are priced affordably like this listing. You can check out our Organic Sour Lifter smalls which are also perfect for making oil and butter.

Things to Avoid:

When buying budget flower you don’t want to buy flower that’s low in phytochemistry as you won’t have a very potent butter or oil when done. You also want to avoid moldy flower which is very common in cheaper flower options. Moldy flower can make you sick if consumed.

Be Careful with Dosing:

At home cooking can be dangerous. if you don’t pay attention to how much you are putting in. There’s lot of calculators online that can help you figure this step out but for non-med use where dose is more about not being too high, just eat a small amount when you’re done to gauge potency. It’s very important to know that you won’t feel anything for 30-45 min and the peak of the effects don’t occur until 2-3 hours in. SO wait that length of time before gauging strength of the dose.

Don’t Overcook It:

If you overcook the butter or oil or even the flower when you’re decarbing it, you can end up converting the cannabinoids to other compounds like CBN. This can make really sleepy butter and oil which can be a good thing depending on your intended use but it’s important to know this can happen and to avoid it if desired.

DIY: HOW TO MAKE CBD (HEMP) BUTTER OR Oil AT HOME:

We recommend a ratio of 1:1 (butter or oil to flower) but depending on how strong you want it and how strong the flower you are using is you may want to adjust that ratio. If it’s too potent you can always add additional plain butter or oil into your infused mix at the end which will decrease the potency.

STEP 1: Decarb the Flower

Decarbing the flower is the act of converting the acidic forms of the compounds like THCa, CBDa and CBGa into THC, CBD, and CBG. For topicals we recommend having decarbed as well as flower that isn’t so you get a wider range of phytochemistry. For edibles however, where the intent is to get high, you will want the flower decarbed.

You’ll do this by preheating the oven to 250 degrees. Next cover a baking sheet in parchment paper and put the broken up flower buds in a thin layer across the sheet. Then heat the sheet of flower in the oven for 30-40 minutes. (Toss the flower every 15 minutes to make sure its evenly heated).

STEP 2: Breakup the Flower

You can use a grinder, blender you don’t mind getting dirty or your hands. Keep pieces large enough they won’t get through a strainer or they will end up in your final product.

STEP 3: Heat Your Oil or Butter

Use a double broiler, rice cooker, crockpot or any other form of gentle even heat to heat up the oil or butter.

STEP 4: Add Your Flower

Once your butter or oil is warm add the flower in.

STEP 5: Simmer on Low Heat

Keep your heat low; somewhere between 150 and 200 degrees is best. If you let your oil or butter get hotter than that it can ruin the cannabinoids and flavor.

STEP 6: Strain the Flower Out

Use a strainer or cheesecloth to remove the flower from your oil or butter. Do not squeeze the flower or you will add chlorophyll into the oil or butter. You can toss the flower at this point.

How Do You Make Edibles with Cannabutter?

Once you have made the butter or oil it’s time to get it into some edibles. You can use the “weed” butter for all types of foods including just simply putting it on foods like toast or pancakes. More commonly people bake it into desserts like brownies and cookies but try cooking vegetables in the butter with some fresh herbs or adding a small teaspoon of it to your coffee.
