Tincture How To

[dudeop3]

Can you use honey oil to do this or buds n shake only ?

[MrTdawg71]

Thanks for the info.

[MrDeamon1]

Adding mint is a great idea

[Sisko690]

The tincture works great for pain. I am thinking of adding some mint to my next batch to treat my GI problems as well as my pain. Using the tincture I feel better than I have in a long time and I am sleeping better at night.

[southernprep5]

What do you do with this stuff anyways? Put it on weed to sell it or what?

[Electricspaceodyssey]

@southernprep5 NO, this is a medicine - Legalize marijuana and get it off the black market and out of the hands of criminals.

[Equity213]

@southernprep5

you just drink it man, put an eyedroppers worth under your tounge.

[XXDeathMetalRockerXX]

dude you kick ass

[dante042066]

how long did you let the weed sit in the alcohol before straining I have heard everything from 2 hours to 2 weeks

[kyzziistar]

flyleaf :)

[abortivus]

@ papastoner: That editing (if you can even call it that) is disconcerting and annoying. I understand the process of tincture extraction well enough but some of those edits seemed like they were going somewhere and then you just cut it off. It's not like you used even half of the time (10 minutes) allowed... Sorry, man, but this video isn't one of your better ones. Stay safe!

[Aner2557]

I have never really succeeded at this - don't understand why...

[ThenGoFuckYourself]

what grown man who is cool enough to smoke pot lets people know he listens to flyleaf?

[feraloner]

What if you use 80 proof? Will it still work?? thanx

[weeeeeedbby]

can you actually DO this video insted of explaining it.

[papastonerngmadenial]

@weeeeeedbby there isn't a lot of 'doing' we could tape-you just shake the jar for a month and leave it in the dark...that would be a pretty boring video :)

[kumili727]

can u do this with like one or 2 grams? cuz right now i cant get that much will just that small amount work?

[sukumvit]

@kumili727 You could, but you'd need to adjust the amount of alcohol accordingly. By my calculations (based on 1oz:1 pint) you'd only need about 20ml vodka per gram.

[sh0rtnswe3t]

WOW!!! Thats educational.. Thanks man

[CodyDagutis]

can you use a flavored alcohol to make it taste better?

[papastonerngmadenial]

@CodyDagutis sure :) Peppermint schnapps might be good!

[jimbosheep101]

@CodyDagutis yep  is long as its 100proof or more

[angelsaura1]

Right on!! Thanks papastoner....I can't wait to try it!! I'm making other herbal tinctures...so why not eh.....

[polupskib]

if anything you should keep the green cold in the freezer prior to making a tincture.

[DissidentCitizen]

I've heard some say that the weed needs to be heated before adding it to alcohol to activate all the THC. Is it an unnecessary step?

[papastonerngmadenial]

@DissidentCitizen

yes it is unnecessary.

[jimbosheep101]

@DissidentCitizen heating it will not activate the thc its will bring out a cemical called THCA which is simlar to thc although it has not got the same strength of psychoactive effects as Thc, personally i see the heating step as pointless, because in heating the bud u risk vopourising your weed and removing all the Thc in it

[DissidentCitizen]

@jimbosheep101 Thanks. I guess that is why my tincture was not potent.  I must have vaporized the THC when I heated it.

[esauvisky]

@DissidentCitizen

NO! IT'S NOT UNNECESSARY!

THC on weed is actually in an acidic form, THC-a, which not gets you high. You need to decarboxylate it, heating, to convert all the THC-a in THC.

check 'decarboxylation of thc' on google and this page from marijuana magazine:

[stylios2008]

I used everclear, and it seems to be rendering very quickly. In 2 hours more than half is gone...should i still wait 24 hours? can I render for less time?

[papastonerngmadenial]

@stylios2008

We haven't tried everclear yet,

but have heard it goes quicker.

[LuvitHeart]

Greetings papastoner, Thanks for the video's.. Wish there were more.. My tincture has something in the bottom that looks like hash. I strained it 7 times. Should I get rid of this or is it o.k.... I also wanted to know if I could use hash and would the process be the same. Thanks

[papastonerngmadenial]

@LuvitHeart

sounds like it was sediment in the

bottom of your tincture-would

probably be gross tasting. Yes you could

use hash to make tincture, but you

wouldn't need as much.

[xwolbx]

love the flyleaf in the background lol

[mandoleene]

wuts the hit like

[lararoyalcrew]

can you tell me how to make small amounts and does it take a shorter period of time

[papastonerngmadenial]

You could just half the recipe, but it takes the same amount of time.

[meltz911]

I broke both my feet. The Dr gave me percocet, I didn't like it. A friend from LA sent me some OG Kush Formula 100% alcohol free Glycerine Tincture. 4 drops under my tounge and I'm pain free for 8 hrs. This stuff is magic! Thanks for the vid, I'm going to try making my own now.

[EverChasingRainbows]

in your "tincture how to" video, which was simple and informative (Thx!), I don't know how long to keep the cannabis in the dark jar with the alcohol. I know I should shake it up daily but for how many days? Also, I don't have the luxury of being able to render the stuff, the smell will give me away, so is it ok if it is not rendered?

[papastonerngmadenial]

you need to keep it in the jar for 30 days. If you don't have a problem drinking alcohol then you could just strain it but there is no cannabis odor when you render it, it is more of an alcohol odor.

[EverChasingRainbows]

Thank you very much!

[MrKiweed]

Hi there Papastoner, nice vids, i was just wondering, you mention the vodka to be 100% proof, could you please advise some exaple makes and what vodka you use?

[papastonerngmadenial]

We just use any 100 proof vodka-no particular brand is necessary. Some people use everclear instead of vodka too. We use the tincture to help with insomnia mostly. Just put a drop or two under your tongue.

~gmadenial

[MistressDivine]

I loved it

[Caliluv562]

Medication. lol

[LiftingPeanuts]

"in other words: Don't do it when you're fucked up!"

LMAO

[papastonerngmadenial]

No, we haven't heard about it. Papa stoner's opinion is that if your marijuana has grown to full maturity before harvest and it is cured properly there wold be no need to heat it before making the tincture. Everyone does it differently-if you try it an it works better-let us know!

[DanielMcCabe]

I've read that you should bake the dry green in an oven at about 160c for 5-10 minutes first. apparently there's a lot of thca in the cannbis that needs to be heated to decarboxylize into thc. otherwise your end product won't be as strong, because all the unconverted thca isn't psychoactive.

you heard about this? what are your thoughts?

[lumpybruisychickeny1]

Wanker

[skrevat]

thank you very much. it only took FOREVER to find some clean mason jars. wal mart for the win.

[papastonerngmadenial]

Just fill hte jar to 1 inch from the top so all the raw materials are coverd.

Gmadenial

[johnnydontdoit]

How much alcohol is added to the mason jar before letting it set for 30 days?

[101piesaregood]

youre listening to flyleaf

[tgukFrankie]

LMAO "in other words, dont do it when your fucked up" NIce vid man!

[Mrung0wa]

Marijuana is a gift from god.

[papastonerngmadenial]

you shake the jar every morning and night for 30 days, then filter it. We will be posting a new video on how to filter it at the end when our current jar is done.

[spencerdryer9]

How long do you let it sit in its jar before filtering?

[papastonerngmadenial]

helpful how to and the tincture does work great-BE CAREFUL!
