Gather your supplies. You will need a glass jar with a lid, some cooking oil, 1 ounce of medical cannabis, and a grinder.

Making your own medical cannabis oil is a good way to ensure you know exactly what is in it and that it is of good quality. It is also relatively easy to do.

You will need:

– A glass jar with a lid.
– Some cooking oil. Olive oil or coconut oil are good choices.
– 1 ounce of medical cannabis. You can use either trim or bud, but bud will give you a stronger oil.
– A grinder.

To make the oil:

1. Grind your cannabis finely using the grinder.
2. Put the ground cannabis in the jar and add enough oil to cover it completely.
3. Seal the jar tightly and place it in a saucepan of water. The water should come about halfway up the side of the jar.
4. Place the saucepan on the stove and heat it until the water is simmering gently. Simmer for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally.
5 .After 3-4 hours, remove the jar from the saucepan and allow it to cool slightly. Then strain the mixture through a cheesecloth or coffee filter into another glass jar or container. Press down on the cannabis with the back of a spoon to get all of the oil out of it. You may need to do this step twice to make sure all of the oil has been extracted.
6 .Your medical cannabis oil is now ready to use! Store it in a cool, dark place and use as needed

Decarboxylate your cannabis. This is an important step in making medical cannabis oil. Without decarboxylation, your oil will not be as potent. To decarboxylate, grind your cannabis and spread it out on an oven-safe tray. Bake at 240 degrees Fahrenheit for 110 minutes.

Once your cannabis is decarboxylated, it’s time to start infusing it into the oil. You’ll need a 1:1 ratio of cannabis to oil. For example, if you’re using 1 cup of oil, you’ll need 1 cup of ground cannabis. Add your oil and cannabis to a slow cooker and set it on low heat. Let the mixture infuse for 6-8 hours, stirring occasionally.

Once your infusion is complete, strain it using a cheesecloth or coffee filter. Be sure to squeeze the cheesecloth or coffee filter to get all of the oil out. Store your finished medical cannabis oil in a dark, airtight container. It will last for several months if stored properly.

Choose your oil. Any cooking oil will work for this recipe, but some oils are better than others. Olive oil and coconut oil are good choices.

Measure the oil. You will need 1 cup (240 ml) of oil for this recipe.

Place the oil in a saucepan on low heat.

Add the medical cannabis. Break up or grind the medical cannabis into small pieces and add it to the saucepan. Stir well to make sure all of the cannabis is coated with oil.

Simmer on low heat for 3-6 hours, stirring occasionally. The longer you simmer, the more potent the oil will be.

After 3-6 hours, remove the pan from heat and allow it to cool for a few minutes.

Pour the mixture through a cheesecloth or strainer into another container. Squeeze the cheesecloth or strainer to get all of the oil out of the cannabis.

Store your medical cannabis oil in a cool, dark place.

Infuse the oil. Place your decarboxylated cannabis in the glass jar and add your chosen oil. Make sure the cannabis is completely submerged. Seal the jar tightly and place it in a saucepan filled with water. Heat the water to a simmer and let the jar simmer for 3-4 hours.

Once the 3-4 hours is up, remove the jar from the saucepan and allow it to cool. Once it’s cooled, open the jar and using a cheesecloth, strain the plant matter from the oil. Store your finished medical cannabis oil in a dark glass jar in a cool, dark place.

Strain the oil. After infusing the oil, you will need to strain it to remove the cannabis plant matter. A coffee filter or cheesecloth works well for this.

Strain the oil. After infusing the oil, you will need to strain it to remove the cannabis plant matter. A coffee filter or cheesecloth works well for this.

Pour the oil into a clear glass jar and carefully strain it through a coffee filter or cheesecloth into another jar. Be sure to squeeze the cheesecloth to remove as much oil as possible. Store the finished oil in a cool, dark place.

Store and use your oil. Store your finished oil in a dark, airtight container. It will keep for up to 6 months. To use, simply add the desired amount to your favorite recipe.

Now that you know how to make medical cannabis oil, it’s time to put it to use! Store your finished oil in a dark, airtight container. It will keep for up to 6 months. To use, simply add the desired amount to your favorite recipe.
