Edibles effects? (kbin.social)
submitted 10 months ago by Horsey@kbin.social to c/trees@lemmy.world

Is there a way to seek out certain edibles effects like how is done with different flower strains for smoking? It seems like the edibles market in Arizona is far less diverse than flower and I'm wondering if it has to do with the effects of edibles in general? I generally want a product that will energize me and help with the creakyness I've developed over the years. I basically never seek out a mellowing high or a couch lock. Thank you for any help 😁

I'm sure the coffee covers most of the abv taste but if you water cure it first the resulting tincture tastes way better. I use a French press and agitate with the plunger, change water then agitate some more for 4 or 5 cycles until the water is clean looking then dry. Seems like more work than it is and the extracts or edibles I make taste way better.

I have not done this in the past because, as you said, it seemed like a lot of extra work. As you outlined it though, using the FP, seems pretty ez and def worth trying. Question. Do you “assist” the drying, i.e. low heat convection oven or just let it dry over time?

I just let it dry. I usually use mine to put in baked goods so I if it's still a little damp it doesn't matter. For tincture I'd think fan, low temp oven or whatever would be ideal. It gets pretty dry just with the press and then I use paper towels to squeeze some more. I favor a coarser grind which helps so ymmv in that respect.
