1: Well that makes it harder but I’m sure you can make a well enough product with available info?
2: And yes my friend, it is just referring to the maximum amount of THC you can infuse into MCT oil. So if you tried to dissolve 100mg into 50ml it would only be able to theoretically adsorb 50mg of that 100mg before the MCT oil becomes fully saturated.
3: Yes, VERY close.:

  1. H20- The density of water at around 20°C (68°F) is approximately 0.9982 g/cm³ or 998.2 kg/m³. Water has a relatively high density, and it is often used as a reference point for comparing the densities of other substances.
  2. MCT OIL- The density of MCT oil can vary slightly depending on factors such as temperature and the specific type of MCT oil used. However, it is generally less dense than water. The density of MCT oil is typically in the range of 0.95 to 0.96 g/cm³ or 950 to 960 kg/m³.
    As we compare these figures we can see the density of both liquids are very close, and considering we don’t even truly know our starting products MG quantities, should be more then ample for at home use. =) or eye balling. As we say. ;p

Please also note for that THC absorption thing, that’s like perfect THEORETICAL absorption, so I’d plan for a few MGs below that personally as well?(which I know maybe hard not knowing the starting mats, but, again, eye ball? ;p)

Gotta chill with the chat geppetto bro

Where did you get that figure for THC solubility in MCT oil? THC is extremely soluble in MCT oil, 1:1 mixtures of THC and MCT are very stable.

My calculations/#'s offered don’t appear to contradict this premise, and I haven’t made any statements to the contrary? I concur that MCT (Medium-Chain Triglyceride) oil stands as one of the most steadfast carrier agents for the infusion of distillate.

These insights/figures were drawn from online sources. However, if you possess alternative information from a credible source, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share it…
Also, chat geppetto? lol

You can 100% get more than 50 mg per mL in MCT lol. If you don’t have experience it’s cool to just read but don’t consult if you are just making stuff up or trusting a program that is known to hallucinate answers when it doesn’t know.

Please tell me how a standard MCT tincture (30 ml) has 1000 - 7500 mg of THC in it if your bot calcs are to be trusted.

I’m not engaging further until data contrary is provided. Seemed to be a good estimate to me? Good day, friend. =)

That’s right, you’re not engaging.

You’re “repeating” the words of a misinformed language regurgitator.

Now you’ve become something of a regurgitator yourself… which is not engaging…

If you researched the topic instead of giving advice on something you yourself know nothing about and have zero experience doing, you’d find out many many many people here have infused cannabinoids into mct far beyond your imposed limit of 50mg/ml.

Here’s a few who’ve done it here with CBD.

5000mg/30ml = 166mg/1ml.

12000mg/30ml = 400mg/1ml.

Roughly… now let’s review an example of his approximation of the solubility limit.

We will take:

1oz cannabis flower, 28.3g

30ml mct oil, 30.0g.

Now for this example, we will say the THC% in our flower is 27.

28.3 × .27 = 7.641.

7.641 × 1000 = 7641.

We have 7641mg of available THC.

7641mg/30ml = 254.7/1ml

That’s already far higher than your imposed limit.

7641mg THC = 7.6g

30ml MCT = 30g

7.6g ÷ 30g × 100 = 25.3

We are at 25.3% THC in our 30ML of MCT, a smidge above half of the maximum.

With the solubility being roughly limited to 50% in this carrier, one can easily number it as 15000mg/30ml as the maximum solubility of cannabinoids in MCT.

15000mg/30ml = 500mg/ml

Which is 10 times higher than what your language regurgitator suggested…

Now this is a rough approximation, I’m sure the numbers would vary THC - CBD but not drastically enough to take away from the figures i used, so this is a relatively solid representation.

You can view 500mg/ml as the approximated solubility limit of cannabinoids in MCT.

Don’t trust the language regurgitator… ever…

Edit: Fixed a derailed train of thought, a mislabed/calculation error, choice words.

Empirical experience is a source. Here is my citation.

I had a cbd brand for about a year and tinctures were our #2 product. (This is just a 1k I use for topical left over, ive infused up to 6k on production runs)

I’m just ignore you =) Thanks for trying to troll.
If MY math was wrong, or I provided wrong infos and you did actually correct it, ty.
I still see ZERO citied credible sources or links. Besides a sketch bottle of tinct lol
Good day bud

This is entire community is about to ignore you, especially if you continue to spread blatant misinformation fueled by AI.

So don’t use the internet for information?
Check.
And w.e, There is plenty of non toxic, nice people’s to talk to on here.
=)
Everyone makes mistakes. If I messed up some math once and that elicits and entire community ignoring me, have at it. Don’t need that kind of community in my life anyway =D
I will say, I am terrible at math and should have put a disclaimer in there.
I was just trying to help based off the info I had.
Thanks for stopping by, and the warning tho. =)
Oh and if I did REALLY mess up I sincerely apologize to OP, tho I still can’t see why my calculations would not work in their case? But mis information is mis infomration and if that is what it was I apologize irregarless. It deff was not at all intentional.

Claiming Open AI/ChatGPT is a credible source of information is where you’ve gone wrong.

If you keep doing that while stating whatever information the AI gave you is factual while experienced individuals are teaching you otherwise… ya… nobody is going to offer teachings anymore.

This was from the information I had on hand.
I don’t actually use AI to answer anything, or if I do I try to at least double check it, I just organize and format my responses with it since my typing is atrocious.
I do agree tho, I am always open and willing to admit info I have or know is wrong, if the discourse is there, if someone comes in rude and hating on a app that makes me a legible human to the masses and is literally the future, my response to them will be, I don’t do toxicity.
A simple : Hey friend, I think you messed up your calculations, heres my experience and heres a link to some credible information is the most scientifically productive and polite way to go about things, and much outside of that I just don’t have the energy to engage with the toxcitiy. =)
Sometimes I do, and can diffuse it, but in this case, especially with lack of links or requested cited sources, I just checked out. =D

Open AI/ChatGPT is not the future lol.

One SM-CME (super massive coronal mass ejection) from our giant ball of plasma in the great beyond will erase all technology/digitally stored information as we know it.

That’s right, the robots die.

That’s why all data-banks are on the bottom of the ocean… best shielding we have incase said event happens as the possibility is quite real.

Anyways… current technology isn’t stable or safe, especially for future generations… off topic though.

Open AI/ChatGPT cannot discover and it cannot comprehend.

It regurgitates information for it’s response based solely on information it’s been fed.

If it doesn’t have access to the information or hasn’t been fed the correct food, it starts hallucinating answers…

@GummyChad If my calculations were wrong I apologize deeply. After further researching this morning, I STILL feel my #'s may have not been perfect, but still seems pretty spot on?
I did find this link on here, that maybe helpful to you to correct my mistake and also to help avoid crystallization of your end product?

33

I whole-heartily I agree. I frequently catch AI making mistakes at this stage in it’s life, I will do my best to stay on top of making sure my information is accurate.
Robots are our best chance at escaping this system since they’re the only thing’s that would survive the Gs at intense speeds of travel and could potentially survive on any place with sun or other green energy sources. But yes, if we don’t get there before our sun dies or another cosmic event kicks us off. we are all collectively screwed and the future of anything is yet to be seen lol.

34

You know the owner of this website @Future has a brand known for making potent products.

Hows this for evidence

That’s around 200mg per mL of CBD.

Attached COA states 209mg/mL from a trusted lab.

That is a skilled chemist indeed,and is deff not the normal or things I see people making on their stove without even knowing what their starting with.
But yes, point received. I still rather not engage with your toxicity tho bro, I didn’t do anything to warrant meaninities. I hope we can meet again on these forums in a more polite and kind way my friend. Thank you again for correcting me as I disdain mis-information and keep up the good work.

These guys weren’t being very mean at all. I’d say they were giving you some good constructive feedback. It’s not mean to point out discrepancies in your statements. How else will you learn and grow? It’s okay to be wrong, just learn from those mistakes and move forward. Nobody has been hostile so far.

lol.
hat’s right, you’re not engaging.

You’re “repeating” the words of a misinformed language regurgitator.

That is very hostile, and also not at all accurate. =)
and then the blatant disregard for my requests so I could verify with my own research.
But if that’s not hostile to you, cool broski.

And I grow and learn when people are nice, and DON’T tell me not to consult, accusing me of not knowing what I’m talking about and to “not comment on things I don’t know” (even tho I was practically raised in this industry)
Sorry. How else would I be corrected and learn and grow? Or even know I was wrong to begin with?
But it’s all G.
I just took a long shower and I realize they were just mad at the AI(it’s scary to so many, and prob for good reason) and the to them, precieved inaccurate information.
Being a scientist, I should know most people who are brilliant are usually rude miserable SOBs. lol
Especially this early, before 2nd cup of coffee and smoke. Haha.
I actually do appreciate very much being corrected and being allowed to participate even if my information may differ from someone elses.
And I do appreciate both their efforts to protect this forum. Truly. I see now it comes from a good place. Rudeness aside.
I would be nervous to and a lil upset if I suspected someone was just haphazardly copy pasting chatgpt answers to people. Even tho that’s again not the case, and I even specify in my profile that, just case people do get nervous.
I still think they could have been way nicer about it, but who am I to also in turn dictate how people express.
I should have just waited till I woke up more then responded. lol. I would have had the energy then to dance around the subtle toxicity that permeates all online spaces.
Everyone keep up the good work and I will try to be better in the future and thank you truly for catching my mistake. If I had found out later and never heard back from OP it’d prob have kept me up at night with guilt. lol

The whole product launched showing @Future literally making these in an oven.

I agree with what some others have said. Maybe keep reading b4 offering what appears to be confident advice that’s actually incorrect
