How to make Cannabis Coconut Oil for Edibles

I use coconut oil for my edibles because it contains up to 60% medium chain triglycerides, which are very easy for the body to digest. It goes for those ones first, so it provides maximum efficiency for the cannabis.
Ingredients:
-Cannabis
-1/2 cup coconut oil
-1 cup water


Step One: Grind Cannabis Buds, Stems, Seeds into a fine powder.

Step Two: Add water and oil to small pot and bring oil to a simmer. Add cannabis.
Step Three: Keep water just below boiling, and let the oil simmer for about 2 hours. Since water boils at 212 degrees, by keeping it slightly below, you can ensure that the cannabis won't exceed 370 degrees, which is where it converts delta-9-THC into CBD, instead of 11-hydroxy-metabolite. That's the shit you want, it's 4-6 times stronger than delta-9. By using the gastrointestinal system to digest it, you involve the liver, which is where the magic happens. The cool part about using the water is that due to it's high specific heat, it takes a lot of energy to raise it 1 degree compared to raising oil by itself by 1 degree. This gives you a much more stable environment to not waste any of the cannabis. 

Step Four: Strain, and press out all the oil from the cannabis. Place this into the fridge and allow it to separate. This will result in some ookie brown water and some really bright green coconut/cannabis oil.

Step Five: When the coconut oil reaches freezing, which is much before the water, you can discard it. It's nasty and has all the hydrocarbons you don't want from smoking.
Step Six: Use this oil in any baking recipe, and make sure not to let it get over 370. Bake that shit on 320 for extra time, bitches.
