Might as well drop my old one pot recipe and actually contribute to the forum. I used from 2015-2019 for smaller batch sizes and to give to patients wanting to make their own instead of overpaying at the dispensary.
Still use it on occasion but it forces you to rely on jello mixes which limits your flavor choices.
This is going to be a straight copy and paste from my notes so it will probably have some spelling errors.
One pot gummy recipe (KOR+)
Notes before starting : Using measuring cups will work but won’t be accurate for proper dosing so I recommend weighing unless it’s for personal rec use.
This makes me 150 pieces at 1.1ml per piece.
For best emulsion use a sonicator/homogenizer but for home scale use an immersion blender, it works but you risk hotspots.
Mix the gelatine into water as cold as possible.
Gram weights are accurate to .005g.
When properly dried they will last at room temp (70-80f) without melting. Once dried properly they will last a minimum of 3months in a ziplock at room temp, 4-6months in a hermetically sealed mylar at room temp, 12-24months hermetically sealed in fridge temps (32-38f). (Longer if using a wax coating like certicoat.) (Past that they get very hard/stale)
1 pack jello (85g) (jolly rancher & normal work best)
4 packages of knox gelatine (29g 225bloom gelatin)
¼ cup sugar (52.5g)
½ cup ice cold water (105g)
½ cup corn syrup (105g).
1-2 tsp citric acid (5-10g to taste)
4g lecithin (soy, sunflower, etc)
3g maltodextrin (optional)
1 ml/cc LorAnne mold inhibitor (potassium sorbate and water)
1-2.5ml flavoring (to taste per flavor)
¼ tsp (1g) mct/lct oil per 1g of distillate
As a general rule, the amount of carrier oil in your formulation should somewhat exceed that of the cannabis extract or isolate. 50 – 60% of LCT/MCT in the oil phase is generally sufficient to prevent Ostwald ripening as well as to help achieve the smallest droplet size sure homogenization.
COATING
1-2tbs citric acid
1 cup sugar
2tbs corn starch (optional)
Process
Place molds on a baking tray (spray with mct unless using starch molds)
Mix your mct (or carrier oil of your choice) with your distillate in a jar with a lid (I put in a toaster oven at 185f to warm it)
Mix corn syrup and very cold water
Very slowly add knox gelatine to the water mixing till thick and no clumps remain then let sit for 20-30 minutes at room temp.
Add jello and let sit for 5minutes
Add sugar and maltodextrin mixing vigorously until mixed. Will be slightly thick but will get thinner when stirred.
Put into a pot and warm on medium low till just under simmering (95-105f) for 5mins then increase temp to medium till it has gone clear/runny (195f)
(DO NOT LET IT BOIL 200f+)
lots of clumps/foam mean you didn’t mix the gelatine properly. Try colder water, slower mixing of the gelatine, or both but some is to be expected. Nobody is perfect.
add mold inhibitor
(Add dyes if making opaque gummy)
Pour into tall slender container or allow to cool in pot (slender container optional but gets the best results)
wait for any clumps/foam to solidify (150-160f) then skim into sink of running hot water
Add flavors + acids
(Reheat to steady 160f)
Add the lecithin to the oil while stirring
Add your medicated oil and mix with sonicator or immersion blender (3-5mins depending on batch size)
Pour into molds then put into fridge for at least 2h preferably 5h
Toss in coating and let air dry for 2-3 days (I dry in a room at 20-30% humidity and 70° f with fans blowing over the gummy directly)
IF NEEDED repeat coating and dry for another day but I’ve never had to.
