How long do you soak tincture

[Bad-Eend]

HI

 

Also posted this in the harvesting and curing but it might be better placed here

 

 I came across this thread... in a way it makes sense but . it is contradicted by 10 other articles  that state the longer the better

 

 

Any opinions/insights/experience and advice please.

All the videos I seen online use the ice method, shaking it and repeating sort of thing, I've not tried it myself.

 

I use the magic butter machine for mine so it gets heated, chopped up and infused for 8 hours, they say 4 but you can do 8 if you like, which I do. Maybe it's unnecessary, I'll try it on 4 next time.

This is interesting as I'm about to try out a tincture and been researching.

 

I rmbr from my qwiso days that I would shake/wash frozen trim for no more than 30 seconds as you would be pulling more chlorophyll, wax's and lipids the longer you go, but then this was for dabbing oil rather than oral consumption so maybe the 4 or 8 hour option is making sure you get everything?

I can say the 8 hour run certainly pulls out alot of chlorophyll. It's meant to be good for youthough, we must eat enough when we eat veg come to think about it. 

 

Thinking about it 8 hours is excessive.

@Dodgee whats the point in removing an information link ?

Plenty of green dragon instructions state how longer the more potent

That link did not so whats the truth?
