In order to derive the greatest potency from the cannabis plant when making edibles, always decarboxylate your material before infusing it in another substance such as oil or butter. <\/p>\n
Decarboxylation is the process of heating up plant matter to initiate the active compounds in cannabis, namely THC and CBD. This process is called decarboxylatation<\/a> because heating bud breaks off the natural carboxyl chain of molecules attached to raw THC, thus allowing THC to cause euphoria. That\u2019s why eating raw pot plants yields no psychoactive effect.<\/p>\n Any amount of cannabis, buds or trim.<\/p>\n Step 1: \u00a0Preheat your oven to 240\u00ba\u00a0<\/em>F.<\/p>\n Step 2: Break apart any large buds with your hands.<\/p>\n Step 3: Spread the cannabis on a baking sheet that has sides.<\/p>\n Step 4: Place in the oven.<\/p>\n Step 5: After 45 minutes, remove the cannabis from the oven, it should now be lightly browned and decarboxylated.<\/p>\n Chef\u2019s Note: When decarboxylating at a low temperature you are preserving the maximum amount of terpenes<\/a>, or the oils in marijuana that inform plant flavor profiles, as well as some of the health benefits.<\/p>\n Excerpted from \u201cCooking with Cannabis,\u201d published by Quarry Press, an imprint of The Quarto Group.<\/em><\/p>\n TELL US<\/strong>, have you ever tried making your own edibles?<\/p>\n The post How To Decarb: Make Cannabis Psychoactive With Heat<\/a> appeared first on Cannabis Now<\/a>.<\/p>\n
