Learn more about how, when, and why to decarb kief for making cannabis edibles, topicals, and more at home.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 240° F.
- If you plan to infuse the kief into butter or oil, you can decarb it in the same jar you plan on using for the infusion process. This helps prevent any waste.
- If you don't plan to use the decarbed kief for an infusion, carefully put a layer of parchment paper into an oven-safe baking dish with a lid. If you don't have a lid, the tin foil will work.
- Using a digital scale, weigh the kief to your desired weight (example: 1 gram, 5 grams, 7.5 grams, or more) directly into the container you plan on using. Make sure the kief is in an even layer, you do not want clumps or mounds.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes for THC-dominant flower or 60-65 minutes for CBD-dominant flower.
- Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool completely with the lid on.
- Your kief will have darkened in color. Sometimes, the resin crystals may have melted a little, but that's OK and why we used parchment, so they don't stick to the baking dish.
- Your decarbed kief is now ready for immediate use. Be sure to store it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place if you don't use it right away.
Notes
You do not need to use decarbed kief right away. It can be stored in an airtight container like a mason jar in a cool, dark place like a cupboard, refrigerator, or freezer until you are ready to use it.
