Directions:
1. Start by decarboxylating your cannabis. Preheat the oven to 230 F.
2. Break up your plant material (trim, shake, and/or bud) but do not grind.
3. Place the plant material on a cookie sheet in a thin, even layer and cover with aluminum foil.
4. Place the prepared cookie sheet into the oven and "bake" for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
5. After 45 minutes to an hour, remove the cookie sheet of marijuana from the oven and set to cool.
6. Turn the crockpot/slow cooker on low/medium (around 150 F - 175 F)
7. Combine 1 cup coconut oil and 1 teaspoon sunflower lecithin in the crockpot/slow cooker for every 14 grams of decarboxylated bud (24-28 grams if you are just using trim)
8. Cover and let it all simmer for about 3-4 hours, making sure to stir every 35-45 minutes or so.
9. After 3-4 hours, turn off the crockpot/slow cooker and allow contents to cool, but not harden.
10. Once mostly cool (but still very much in liquid form) strain the contents of the crockpot/slow cooker through the cheesecloth, collecting the liquid cannabis coconut oil in a glass storage container.
11. Store in a cool, dry, dark place, and use for cooking, in capsules, on sore gums, as a topical cream on it's own, or as a base for massage creams, lotions, hair care products, etc.
