 Glycerine Tincture Tek  2

I've been playing around with using my vaped weed in a glycerine tincture since I can't consume alcohol.
Here is what you will need
herb .. duh
food grade vegetable glycerin - I got a 16oz bottle for ~$16 from Amazon
small glass container w/lid - I use a pint mason jar
coffee warmer - Wal-Mart for $10
Tip: I add some karo and a drop or 2 of vanilla extract for flavor, the glycerine has a funny taste/texture.
Mix herb and glycerine in jar and sit on warmer, stir when you think about it.
At the end of the day put the lid on it and set it in the freezer.
Repeat until all the weed has settled to the bottom of the glycerine
takes about 5-7 days but the longer it sits the stronger it will get 
I generally let mine sit till I have another batch of vaped weed.
Then strain through some cheese cloth and keep in a cool dark place
Its easier to strain while its warm, the glycerine is kinda viscous at room temp
A few drops under the tongue is all it takes to get high from it. I like to add it to my coffee.

IME 4g vaped weed = 1 gram non-vaped weed
It can be done w/a slow cooker on low/warm, glycerine (from what i've been told) doesn't hold up well to high heat. Some people don't use heat at all, and just let it set for several weeks/months.
I was using my vaped weed to learn how to make brownies.
Now I just throw the vaped weed in the tincture

The potency depends greatly on how long it sits.
Patience is a much needed virtue when making glycerine tinctures

This sounds great to me...would it allow me to make hard candy? Thats one thing I've always really really wanted to do.
So if 4g = 1g, how much do you use in your 16oz of glycerine? I don't want to under-do it and waste my time and effort.
I'd probably just use trim though, I assume that works?
--------------------
Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

I don't think that the glycerine is good for hard candy. There is something about it that won't let it harden I've heard. Its even hard to get it solid in the freezer for 24 hours :/
To be honest ... I really don't weigh the AVB
I don't use the whole 16 oz bottle at once either
This will be my third batch with this one bottle
I wait till I've got about a ~third of a pints worth
then add it to the pint jar and cover it well with glycerine
Filling the pint jar to just above the halfway point
It makes a really thick mud-like paste at room temp
But thins out quite a bit once its warm
Any part of the plant will work in glycerine
I just use the ABV since I've got no other good use for it anymore
and I like the sleepy/stoney effect of the vaped herb to help me sleep

Most people use glycerin tinctures for making their own drinks, like stony Gatorade or hot chocolate etc. The cool thing about glycerin is that it's soluble in water, oil AND alcohol so you can basically put it in anything.

Yea, I've noticed that it goes real well in warm drinks
Here is a pic of my latest batch
its about 50/50 AVB/glycerine
This is after about 7 days.
It will be another ~7 days before I have enough AVB to start another batch.
That just means that this one will be that much stronger when I strain it.
I have been smoking a bit less since I ~perfected my brownie recipe
a half gram brownie will slow my smoking down quit a bit
a whole gram brownie will stop my smoking outright for several hours
I posted my brownie recipe in the Cooking section

Pretty sure this kind of thing would be at a specialty food store. Or a health foods store. Those would be my first two bets.
--------------------
In order to grow good weed you need to be part carpenter, electrician, plumber, biologist, geneticist, chemist, and very willing to get dirty.
I've been working with power tools since I was 8, my dad is an electrical engineer who owned a 280 gal fish tank, and I studied biology with a specialty in genetics. Getting dirty comes naturally. I think my parents inadvertently trained me to be a weed grower.
See what you think on my first try.

Check drug stores/pharmacies. You can just ask the pharmacist if they have it

There isn't much to keep track of to be honest.
This is my third batch. I just posted this tek for those that didn't know about it
I'm out of glycerine, so my next batch of AVB will go into some brownies.
I tend to clean my vape after every 4-5 grams.
So I end up with a lot of vape goo.
Im going to add the vape goo (about 6 piles of it)
to my next batch of AVB brownies 
send a  if you want my tek for cleaning my whip/tube assembly.
obviously I scrape up the goodies for use later 
I was putting it in with some weed and smoking it in my vape
but that just funks the tube/whip up again real fast
so I've been adding it to my glycerine/brownie mix

Bumping this because I'm gonna try it soon. I have a third of a pint jar, about half trim half avb. I'll be doing it very similarly to this, minus the coffee warmer since I don't have one. I'll probably let it sit til almost st Patrick's day and give it a test. A buddy of mine will be here and I'd love to trick him by giving him some sports drink lol.
(He will be fine with it, I just wanna surprise him)
will report in with results and final amounts. I still need to order the glycerine so ill have more avb by then.

Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

Ordered 4 oz for $6 or so on eBay. Something about how they measure it by weight not volume...if its not enough ill fit as much as I can in the amount I get. I'll post weights and volumes and whathaveyou as well as whatever I do with it. Probably warm it a bit.
