What is a Decarboxylated Oral Syringe?
A decarboxylated oral syringe is a highly concentrated cannabis oil that you can use for making homemade edibles or other infused products. The oil has been decarboxylated, so the THC-A and CBD-A have been converted into THC and CBD — this means the oil does not need to be heated to become active. The oil can be used with any recipe that calls for butter, oil, or any other type of fat. Cannabinoids are fat-soluble, so they blend well with food items when used in this way. The oral syringe makes the process easy. You can find oral syringes on our menu under “Extract.”
400mg Decarboxylated Oral Syringe
Step by Step
1. Determine an appropriate volume of oil, butter, honey, etc.
2. Warm your chosen food product in a double boiler, in a saucepan on very low heat, or soften in a microwave. Be careful of the temperature getting too hot.
3. Add the full contents of the oral syringe (400mg) and mix them together thoroughly.
4. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
5. If you are adding your infused product to a recipe, you may do so now.
6. Depending on what you’re making, you may divide the infused product before or after cooking. Be sure to keep careful track of your measurements so you know the potency of each serving.
Dosing
400mg = 80 x 5mg doses
400mg = 40 x 10mg doses
400mg = 20 x 20mg doses
400mg = 8 x 50mg doses
Infused Coconut Oil
Coconut oil can be a great medium for cannabis infused products because it can be used in the solid or liquid state and it can be used as an edible, tincture, or topical. You can use a recipe for a baked good with coconut oil or add a measured dose of oil to a food you are cooking. Coconut oil in the liquid form can be used as a tincture if applied as drops under the tongue. If you do this, be mindful of the dose of the product you’ve created. Coconut oil based topicals can be used in the liquid form as a massage oil or even a personal lubricant. In addition, the solid form of coconut oil can make a great salve.

Notes
- Milligrams (mg) and Milliliters (mL) are not the same. The oral syringe is marked with milliliters (mL), a measure of volume, and this does not indicate how many milligrams (mg) of THC are in the syringe.
- The syringe may contain between 3.5mL and 4.5mL of decarboxylated cannabis oil. This will always be 400mg (mass, weight) of cannabinoids in the decarboxylated syringe, despite the variability of volume.
- Dosing or splitting the contents directly from the syringe is not recommended, due to the likelihood of inaccurate dosing. Always infuse into a known volume of a food product.
- A double boiler can be made with a Pyrex bowl that fits inside the opening of a saucepan, but doesn’t sit all the way on the bottom. Simply add water to the saucepan and heat it to warm the bowl.

Directions:
· Heat oven to 325 °F and grease a loaf pan with shortening. Set aside.
· Mix the Oral Syringe with the vegetable oil until well incorporated.
· Using a spoon, mix sugar, bananas, oil, milk and eggs in a large bowl.
· Mix well, scraping down the sides occasionally.
· Stir in the dry ingredients.
· Stir in the nuts/ chocolate if you choose to include them.
· Once well mixed, pour into the loaf pan or into a muffin tray (about 20 muffins).
· Place the pan in the center of the oven and let cook for 60-70 minutes. Start checking the bread around 55 minutes. For muffins, bake for 15-20 minutes.
· Once out of the oven, take a butter knife and sweep all the sides of the loaf pan to loosen the sides and make for a clean and easy release. Turn over the loaf pan, emptying the bread onto a cooling rack, then letting it cool right side up. For muffins, remove from tray and enjoy.
· To lengthen shelf life, you can freeze the bread or muffins and save them for later.
