How to Make Medical Cannabis Oil ("Medible Oil")

Making high quality, medical cannabis oil opens the door to the endless world of edible recipes! Having previously been partner in an edible company, we used this process to make all of our products, such as gummies, peanut butter, all of our baked goods, fudge, chocolate, capsules, syrups, meal services etc.!

Using Coconut Oil As Your Ingredient

We prefer to use coconut oil over butter or cooking oil, for the following reasons:

I've included item links as most of these items can be purchased at Walmart, and Walmart is accessible to nearly everyone!

  • It is more easily processed by the body, which makes it more effective.
  • It has a higher smoke point, which allows for better cannabinoid extraction
  • It has a higher fat saturated fat content which means
  • It can hold onto more cannabinoids
  • It can be used in more recipes
  • It's healthier, lactose free, and more mild in flavor
  • It has a much longer shelf life

How to Make Medical Cannabis Oil

Before starting, you should know that making edibles is a smelly process, so try to ventilate and air out your cooking space the best you can.

To start, you will need about at least 1/4oz of dried cannabis trim, larf, or flower.

You can also use kief, hash or rosin with this same process, but the amount used will vary. You will need to calculate how much material was processed. Use the amount of extract that would have been yielded from processing a 1/4 oz of flower, and follow the same ratio below.

Step 1: Decarbing

You will first start by decarbing the cannabis flower/trim etc. To decarb, preheat your oven to 245°. While it's warming, add the cannabis to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and spread it out evenly across the sheet. You will bake the cannabis for 45 minutes! Once baked, your cannabis is decarbed and is ready to be turned into oil.

Step 2: Adding Water/Coconut Oil

You will use equal parts water and coconut oil.

Use 1 cup of oil, for every 1/4oz-1/2oz of cannabis (the higher the flower/oil ratio, the stronger the effect).

Let the cannabis simmer in the water/oil for about 1 hour with the lid on. You will need to periodically mix the ingredients to make sure the cannabis doesn't sit on the bottom and burn.

Step 3: Cooling Down

Once simmered, let the pot rest, and cool until it reaches a warm temperature.

Step 4: Straining

Strain the cannabis out of the mixture using a chesscloth, or an extra fine strainer. Once strained, pour the mixture into a bowl.

Step 5: Freezing

Add the bowl into the fridge or freezer. The oil/butter will separate from water and you will be left with a block of pure medical cannabis oil.
