Coconut oil

Due to its low sugar content and neutral taste, coconut oil is the ultimate carrier. It is rich in nutrients and saturated fats. It is also beneficial to health and suitable for vegan diets.

Milk and butter

Milk and butter are common infusion carriers.

If you do not have milk, buy fresh whole cream.

Animal fats

For information, saturated fats (e.g., animal fat, butter, coconut oil ) have a better efficiency than vegetable oils.

Decarboxylating the hemp flowers

Don't want to use a fat in your hemp infusion? Opt for decarboxylation.
Cannabinoids are naturally present in hemp leaves in their acidic form. Decarboxylation is a process that allows them to be "converted" into their active form. This transformation is essential to reap the benefits of the molecules.
Under the effect of heat, CBDa, CBGa and THCa are converted into CBD, CBG and THC respectively. Such is the logic.
Decarboxylation is simple and doesn't require specific skills. All you'll need is some well-dried hemp flowers, a grinder, parchment paper and an oven. Here are the steps:

• preheat the oven (between 90 and 120°C)
• toast, crumble or crumble the flowers (do not crush them into dust or very fine crumbs, otherwise the molecules and crystals will spoil);
• spread the flowers on a baking sheet and cover with the parchment paper
• bake for 30 minutes, at 140°C;
• arrange the flowers in a container and let them cool. You can then use them as you wish.

Do not exceed 30 minutes as the terpenes may evaporate. A maximum temperature of 150°C is recommended to preserve the aromas of the flowers.

Cannabidiol herbal tea is appreciated for its simplicity of preparation and its benefits. It is made with hemp leaves or flowers and medicinal plants (hawthorn, sage, verbena). From morning to evening, hot or cold, it is suitable for all needs. It is declined under various tastes and flavours.
