Hard Candies
Ingredients
1 gram of CBD/MIX distillate
2 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cup light corn syrup
¾ cup water
1 dram (1tsp.*) Organic essential oil for flavoring
Sheet Pan
Powdered sugar (optional)
The Math
Determine the percentage of your Distillate. In my case the 1 gram of distillate I used contained 800mg of CBD/MIX.
Determine the strength of each piece of candy by dividing the percentage of Distillate by the desired mg of distillate for each piece of candy. In my case I want 10mg per each piece of candy. 800mg/10mg = 80 pieces of candy.
Directions
Have all ingredients and tools assembled and within easy reach of the stove. The use of metal spoons and measuring utensils is recommended. Line a cookie sheet/jelly roll pan with foil and lightly oil or spray with non-stick cooking spray (such as PAM). If using molds, lightly spray cavities of clean, dry candy molds with non-stick cooking spray. Insert sucker sticks. If using molds, you may also want to spray a piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray. If after pouring the syrup into the molds you have excess candy, you can pour it onto the foil for break-up candy.
- In a heavy (good quality) 2-quart saucepan, mix together sugar, corn syrup and water. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves.
- Insert candy thermometer if using, making certain it does not touch the bottom of the pan. Bring mixture to a boil without stirring.
- Early in the cooking process, “wash down” any sugar crystals that form on the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush.
- Continue to cook the syrup, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 260º F;
- Remove from heat precisely at 300° F (temperature will continue rising), or until drops of syrup form hard, brittle threads in cold water (hard crack stage). After boiling action has ceased, add flavor and stir. USE CAUTION WHEN ADDING FLAVORING TO AVOID RISING STEAM.
- As the mixture begins to cool, incorporate the 1 gram of Distillate
- Pour the hot candy onto a heat-resistant surface covered in powdered sugar. When the candy is slightly cooled, it can be cut into desired strength.
Break and weigh the candy batch into the determined weigh per each piece, the value determined using The Math. It may take a few pieces each time to get desired weight.
Gummi Candies
Ingredients
1 gram of CBD/MIX distillate
1/2 cup water
3 packets of knox gelatine
1 packet of jolly ranchers mix (hard candies can be crushed and added if prefered)
1 large syringe or turkey baster
Mold(s) gummie bears (standard size bears approximatley 100 bears)
Powdered sugar or corn starch
The Math
Determine the percentage of your Distillate. In my case the 1 gram of distillate I used contained 800mg of CBD/MIX.
Determine the strength of each gummi bear by dividing the percentage of Distillate by the desired mg of distillate for each gummi bear. In my case I want 10mg per each gummi bear. 800mg/10mg = 80 gummi bears.
Directions
Have all ingredients and tools assembled and within easy reach of the stove. The use of metal spoons and measuring utensils is recommended. Lightly spray cavities of clean, dry candy molds with non-stick cooking spray.
You may also want to spray a piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray. After pouring the mixture into the molds you may have excess candy. You can pour the excess onto the foil for gummi bear pieces.
- In a heavy (good quality) 2-quart saucepan, add 1/2 cup of water. Stir over low heat.
- Slowly mix in the 3 packets of Knox gelatine.
- stir the mixture constantly
- Slowly mix in the 1 packet of Jolly Ranchers Mix or Crushed Candies.
- stir the mixture constantly
- add the entire 1g of CBD/THC distillate
- stir the mixture constantly on low heat for 10 minutes
- while hot, draw the mixture in to the large syringe or turkey baster.
- inject the mixture into the molds immedicatley while hot!
- do not allow the mixture in the syringe to cool.
- if the mixture in the syringe does cool then you can place the capped syringe in very hot water and wait 5 minutes until it is liquid again.
Press each gummi bear out of the mold into powdered sugar or corn starch. Roll the gummie bears in the powder so that the gummi bears don't stick together.
Cooking Oil Infused with CBD/MIX
Ingredients
3 grams of CBD/MIX distillate
1 cup (236 grams) of cooking oil. Olive, Sesame, Hemp Seed any cooking oil works.
1 cup jar with lid
The Math
Determine the total percentage of your Distillate. In my case the 3 grams of distillate I used contained 800mg each gram for a total of 2400mg CBD/MIX.
Determine the strength of each gram of infused cooking oil by dividing the percentage of distillate by the desired mg/ml of distillate for each gram of infused cooking oil. In my case I want 10mg/ml per each gram of infused cooking oil. 2400mg/236ml = 10mg of distillate per each gram of infused cooking oil.
Directions
Have all ingredients and tools assembled and within easy reach of the stove. The use of metal spoons and measuring utensils is recommended.
- In a heavy (good quality) 2-quart saucepan, add 1 cup of cooking oil. Stir over low heat.
- When the cooking oil is warm, slowly mix in the 3 grams of distillate.
- stir the mixture constantly on low heat until the distillate is fully infused in the cooking oil.
while hot, pour the mixture in to the jar. let the mixture cool until it sets hard. place the lid on the jar and tighten.
Oral and Topograpical Coconut Oil Infused with CBD/MIX
Orally ingested and Topograpical use oil for the skin. This mixture has similar cancer fighting affects as Rick Simpson Oil. Can be ingested orally or applied directly on the affected area of the skin.
Ingredients
1 grams of CBD/MIX distillate
8ml of coconut oil.
8 1ml syringes
The Math
Determine the total percentage of your distillate. In my case the 1 gram of distillate I used contained 800mg of CBD/MIX.
Determine the strength of each gram of infused coconut oil by dividing the percentage of distillate by the desired mg/ml of distillate for each gram of infused coconut oil. In my case I want 100mg/ml per each gram of infused coconut oil. 800mg/8ml = 100mg of distillate per each gram of infused coconut oil.
Directions
Have all ingredients and tools assembled and within easy reach of the stove. The use of metal spoons and measuring utensils is recommended.
- pour hot water into a coffee mug to use as a small double boiler
- In a shot glass, add 8ml of coconut oil.
- place the shot glass into the coffee mug of hot water. Make sure there is not enough water in the coffee mug to overfill the shot glass.
- Stir until melted fully.
- Slowly mix in the 1 gram of distillate.
- stir the mixture constantly until the distillate is fully infused in the coconut oil.
while hot, draw the mixture in to the syringes.
Tinctures
Ingredients
1 gram of CBD/MIX distillate
1 clean dropper bottle. You will find an abundance of these small inexpensive glass bottles with droppers available on Amazon, they work perfectly for your tinctures!
1 small bottle Ethyl Alcohol (Ethanol) - *** DO NOT use Isopropyl Alcohol – ingesting is poisonous!***
You can use any type of drinkable alcohol you wish here. You don’t need high proof alcohol like Everclear for this recipe as it’s really only being used as a carrier solvent to “water down” the cannabinoid content to your desired strength. Flavored alcohols are particularly useful here as it helps mask any herbal taste present.
The Math
Determine the percentage of your Distillate. In my case the 1 gram of distillate I used contained 800mg of CBD/MIX.
Adding 3ml of alcohol makes the tincture 4ml in Total Volume.
Divide percentage of Distillate by the Total Volume (4ml) to get the Total Concentration (ml). In my case, 800mg/4ml = 200mg/ml.
There are 20 drops in a ml. Divide the Total Volume by 20 to get the mg per Drop. In my case, divide 200 by 20 to get 10mg per drop.
You can easily adjust the amount of alcohol to reduce the final potency to whatever you desire. There are 50ml of alcohol in a mini-bottle. Using this example, using the entire bottle will yield a tincture of about 16mg/ml (1 dropper full) or about 0.8mg per drop. Excellent for microdosing!
Directions
Have all ingredients and tools assembled and within easy reach of the stove.
- Squirt the contents of your cannabis distillate into the clean dropper bottle. Distillate is very viscous and will not come out of the syringe if cold. Simply run the vial under hot water for about 30 seconds and it will come out quick and easy.
- Using the syringe you just emptied, measure out the alcohol 1ml at a time and squirt it into your bottle containing the distillate until you have reached the desired amount. (This part of the process has an added bonus of getting every last bit stuck in the syringe tip into your mix.)
- Put the dropper top back on, close the lid and shake well to mix thoroughly. This part will go faster if you hold the dropper bottle under hot running water for a minute.
- Continue to cook the syrup, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 260º F;
Usage
Put the desired number of drops under your tongue or simply add drops to your favorite food or beverage and enjoy!
