Decarbing bubble hash for brownies


Giventofry

Recommended Posts

Morning all!!

 

Just reading up on making brownies with some bubble hash i made from trim.

Ive searched and read up, but found conflicting views.

 

I have 6g of surprisingly strong dry bubble, 2g Ill keep for smoking.

 

Do I decarb 110c for 30 mins?

Problem is, with a fan oven it will blow everywhere like the bread crumbs i tried!!

 

Is it ok to cover the hash with baking parchment and a baking tray?

Will that still decarb the hash?

 

Ill be adding the hash to butter, melting in for 30 mins, then adding choc and sugars before baking for 30 mins.

Isnt that enough to decarb??

 

All the best all!!

Ahh, i see!!

Many thanks for your help,

Again!!!

 

Ill be doing the Edd Kimber recepie again, 

But first time with home made hash!

I just hope 4g is enough for a 33 by 23cm tray bake.

 

All the best,

 

Fry.

How long does it take to cook? 

 

Decarbing can be a bit of a minefield, i'd want to make sure it's done fully just not to waste bubble. It's very precious! 

You can decarb in a dish with a lid to stop it getting disturbed by the fan oven. I'd keep an eye on it, I think 30 mins would be a bit long for bubble, it would probably disintegrate. I used to do 20.

With the butter melting, chocolate adding, and cooking process id say the recipie itself has enough time built into it.  I find the same with flapjacks.

Hi @KC

 

Yes, minefield is right!!

It takes 10 to 15 to melt hash to butter, then sugars and chocolate is melted in, takes 20 to 25 on hob in total.

Then its mixed with flour and eggs etc,

In oven for 25 mins if you like them squidgy ( and why wouldnt you) 30 if youre a wrong un and like them "cakey"

 

Ive found some pryrex dishes with lids so am probably gonna decarb for 20 or 30 with lid loose on top.

 

Also decided, fuck it, 6g going in!!

Got a bubbleman washing machine coming soon so will have some more bubble in 3 weeks!!

 

All the best all!!

Hi @Pheonix,

 

Thats how I used to do it!

That was with cheap red seal hash.

 

All the melting is at a low heat, less than 110c which seems to be the correct temperature for decarb.

But reading more I see people do decarb hash before baking, if that makes it stronger, Ill just go for it!!

 

All help appreciated all!!

That's long enough cooking tbh. 

 

Ignore me lol As you were :)

 

The bubble has dissolved a treat into the butter!! It just disintegrated. 

Smelling more than baking with "normal" hash.
