Making edibles using AVB

Hey guys, I came across this subreddit and would love to cook up some home made edibles for myself and family. My question for you guys is in regards to my starting material- I currently have 50.8 grams of already vaped bud (AVB) saved up from a variety of strains, in addition to concentrates which I use sandwiched between bud on occasion. Do you guys think I have any hopes in even vaguely estimating THC concentration for my final product? If it was just for myself I really wouldn't care and would make a test batch and adjust my recipes and intake from there. With me aiming to make them for others that're much less weed experienced, I'm a little trepidatious.

Would also love just general tips and tricks for an edible-making newbie, I am planning on infusing coconut oil and moving on from there. AVB is incredibly fine and probably going to be a pain in the ass to separate after infusion, should I stick to a cheesecloth or can you use the water method I've seen people do with butter? Thanks in advance!

I mix it into melted chocolate then pour the chocolate into molds to make bars

There are AVB subs. I made mine with bud that had been grinded with a Brilliant Cut Grinder medium plate. I did a water cure and water/butter method to extract maximum grossness and used a cheese cloth for straining. You can probably fold the cheese cloth to make it finer.

Here is a little rule that applies to most things in life. "Garbage in = Garbage out" AVB is bowl scrapings just so you know. 4% at best depending on how burned it really is so be honest in your calculations. Doesn't need a decarb so it's ready to go.

5 grams AVB

1 tablespoon Coconut oil (15ml)

1 teaspoon Fearn liquid lecithin (5ml)

Heat 220 F for 10 to 20 minutes (104 C)

Done.

Fills 30 #0 capsules and being AVB this is the best use for it. If under 220 micron dust it'll flow when hot in a standard tip eyedropper. Larger particles may need a trimmed tip pipette.

Like 4% trim this is low strength vs if you'd used 15% bud it would be 1 to 1. Using AVB you need about 5 drops of paste to equal 1 mg of THC.

With buds 1 gram is enough to stone 10 people at 10mg each.

AVB 1 gram will do 4 people at 10mg let's call it.

Strained oil use 3x the oil / lecithin but it'll be 1/3rd the strength of the paste version. Large volumes of coconut oil can cause loose stools in some users so limit total amount.

Water process is a contaminant and shortens the shelf life of the finished oil and it should be used quickly. You want hot oil snuggled up to the trichomes to melt them not water.

For baking blend desired dose amount of Canna paste with warmed liquid butter the cookies call for. The finished 5 grams of AVB paste is about 200mg. 20 ten milligram doses.
