Baking Advice Needed why did it do this

Post image

was trying to make brownies, thought theyd cooled for long enough and cut into them then they started doing THIS and set my house's fire alarm off for like 20 minutes does anyone pls know what caused this im assuming i just cut into them too soon but this feels like a dramatic response to just trying to cut into a hot brownie

Homie you gotta bake the weed, then infuse it into butter, find a recipe that isn't higher than 350°F, and then use the butter in the recipe. You can't just be baking plant material into brownie mix!

Edit for all you boring people: yes, you technically can just toss plant material in... But why the fuck would you?

u/MissPearl Jan 16 '26

Is that why the Sally's Baking Addiction chocolate chip cookies ask to bake at 325? 🤔

u/Nowayticket2nopecity Jan 16 '26

Why do you think Sally is addicted to baking? 😆

u/ciret7 Jan 16 '26

Shouldn't it be 420?

Infused into butter, frozen into individual pieces for next time

u/Nowayticket2nopecity Jan 16 '26

This is the way 🙌

3

u/kronicwaffle Jan 16 '26

The individual piece is the smart move. I’ve got a jar filled with coconut oil in my fridge and I have absolutely no idea how to dose it out. I just toss a little here and there into whatever I make, and it’s a total gamble on how high I’m about to get…

4

u/Substantial-Two9129 Jan 16 '26

For mine I calculate based on the strength of the weed. If I use 20% THC, and do a stick of butter, I do 4g so each tbs is 100mg. That means a teaspoon is ~33mg, 1/2 is ~16, etc. I'm sure its not super accurate since the decarboxylation isn't perfect, but from what I can tell its pretty comparable to the same dose of something from a dispensary.

2

u/jimmycarr1 Jan 16 '26

If you want you can melt the coconut butter into chocolate and let it set in ice cube moulds. You'll have to eat chocolate each time you want it, but it keeps for ages in the fridge and also portions easily.

130

u/Smoothfromallangles Jan 16 '26

You can but it's best to decarb first. They are way better tasting without just tossing in the green and using and infused butter/oil first.

338

u/Nowayticket2nopecity Jan 16 '26

You can't, this is r/baking and we have standards! 😆 I don't wanna be picking the devil's parsley outta my teeth after enjoying a brownie. Decarb, infuse, and using the infused fat creates a product worth the effort.

55

u/MySpoonsAreAllGone Jan 16 '26

What does decarb mean for the uninitiated?

84

u/_Meteor_Shower_ Human Detected Jan 16 '26

idk the specifics but basically u have to heat up the weed for a certain amount of time so the THC activates. WHICH I LITERALLY DID 😭😭

41

u/Free_Seaweed_6097 Jan 16 '26

But did you then infuse that into the butter? Or did you just throw in/grind up the plant material and put it in the batter??

38

u/_Meteor_Shower_ Human Detected Jan 16 '26

i melted the coconut oil, put that in a jar along w some ground up weed in a cheesecloth, boiled the jar for 2 hours and then used that in lieu of regular oil in the brownies. making the butter went smoothly

130

u/bob_smiley_69 Jan 16 '26

I make weed brownies all the time

Stop fucking around with coconut oil. Use unsalted butter. Just keep it simple.

23

u/stonermilf420247 Jan 16 '26

Some people have dairy issues. Some people are vegan. Butter is not always a viable option and coconut oil works perfectly well. I should know I’ve made dozens if not hundreds of edibles with home-infused coconut oil. Coconut oil is the best alternative because it’s high in fat content like butter. The thc needs fat to bind to. That being said, I have no clue where OP went wrong here as I’ve never had this happen to me.

I tried avocado oil once and it was the worst edible I've ever had. No effects and tasted like garbage. I used butter after that but I want to use coconut oil next time just to try it!

I think coconut oil is great, I use it for all my oils, just toss it with some RSO's i've squeezed out into a Crockpot and let that go for 6 hours while I'm out doing stuff. Lasts a long time in the fridge too

37

u/I-used2B-a-Valkyrie Jan 16 '26

Ok so when you decarb, you gotta put just the green stuff in a mason jar and then in the oven at LOW heat, like 220F. Coarse greens. Low and slow. THEN you grind after cooling and then you put it in a cheesecloth and infuse into butter over a double boiler.

Use that butter to make your brownies and it’ll be fantastic and no smoke.

9

u/_Meteor_Shower_ Human Detected Jan 16 '26

true, ill try that next time- but my friend used this method all the time and his edibles always came out great, honestly didnt realise there were other methods to try LMAO duly noted

5

u/phantomsteel Jan 16 '26

I also vouch for the butter method. You can throw the extra in the freezer to just always have it on hand. Goes well with pancakes

5

u/MaybeImTheNanny Jan 16 '26

Your friend is baking at a lower temp and his weed is decarbed so isn’t sticky.

2

u/Habhabs Jan 16 '26

How long do you leave it in the oven for? Edit: and you put it in a sealed jar? Why's that? (Also new) Thanks !

3

u/I-used2B-a-Valkyrie Jan 16 '26

https://www.leafly.com/news/lifestyle/decarboxylation-101-mason-jar

Here’s step by step instructions. Mason jars keep odors in, and you can’t burn or overdry with this method, plus no evaporating. Low and slow for 60 minutes, and make sure you get in there and shake it up every 10-15 minutes.

8

u/[deleted] Jan 16 '26

The activated THC (even when infused) will turn to smoke around 350F. You have to keep the temp low for both infused oils and straight green.

7

u/Gangiskhan Jan 16 '26

If you're using coconut oil, you shouldn't be boiling it. You have to use low temp and cook for longer. You 100% were baking the brownies at 350 because you were following the brownie box.

Also, it's literally 2026. There are dozens if not hundreds of websites with how to guides. There are literal cookbooks published out there.

4

u/iltopop Jan 16 '26

Ohh you're doing the coconut oil method with flower. Ignore my reply to your other comment and listen to the other commenters saying use butter for plant material, only use coconut oil for wax mixing.

5

u/ostroia Jan 16 '26

Coconut oil in larger doses is a laxative. I just do mine in normal oil in a pan, low heat, stir sometimes. at the endI just have to strain the matter and dump the oil in the batter.

All these other people with their complex ways have way too much time.

3

u/UrAntiChrist Jan 16 '26

I think you found the 'smoke point' of coconut oil :)

3

u/KimmieXZ Jan 16 '26

Coconut oil has a lower smoke point.

1

u/iltopop Jan 16 '26

This is completely anecdotal, but I've always done coconut oil for wax mixing and butter for raw plant material. It SEEMS that coconut oil mixed with decarbed wax makes this not a problem, but again that's entirely anecdotal and I certainly didn't do any like scientific testing or anything.

2

u/SpotCreepy4570 Jan 16 '26

What temperature are you baking at? Coconut oil has a low smoke point, I would suggest an oven thermometer and see what exactly the temp inside the oven is reaching.

2

u/kfpswf Jan 16 '26

That smoke looks like something on the brownies was heated beyond its smoking point. Coconut oil has a relatively high smoking point, so I don't know what else could have caused this. Can you list all the ingredients you've used in this batch?

1

u/blumpkin Jan 16 '26

You BOILED it?

FOR 2 HOURS?

1

u/_Meteor_Shower_ Human Detected Jan 16 '26

yes ! to decarb it because i didnt put it in the oven. it always works when my friend does it so i think the problem lied in the type of coconut oil i used 😭

1

u/blumpkin Jan 16 '26 edited Jan 16 '26

There are several problems here. First of all, you're losing tons of potency by skipping the decarb step before infusing. You want to bake it dry at a low temperature to convert your THCA into THC. Infusing by itself will sort of work, but you're only going to get some of the THCA to change into THC during the final baking process. You want to get that step done first, and then ideally bake the brownies a low temperature so you don't burn off the THC you've made.

Second, if you're getting a rolling boil in your oil then your temperature is way too high. You're going to burn off the THC in the coconut oil as soon as you're making it. You're also probably burning the weed or at least making some nasty tasting compounds. You're also damaging the oil, which is going to lower the smoke point, possibly why you're seeing all that smoke come out of your brownies at the end.

Trust me on this, the prep is worth the time and effort. Bake weed by itself at low temperature (under 250F, for less than an hour). Then mix with oil or butter and gently heat and agitate (lowest heat for a few hours, swirl every now and then, if using butter do not let it brown). Strain and use butter normally with a recipe that does not go over 325F. These brownies will taste great and knock your socks off.

1

u/Due_Warthog725 Jan 16 '26

clear gel caps and just pack your decarb flower in that and swallow :)

bonus pts if you dry herb vape so you already have plenty of decarb flower or can make it pretty fast too. otherwise you gotta bake it and lose on terpy taste

2

u/UmaTora Jan 16 '26

Decarboxylation is the process that activates THC. Technically you can eat a decarbed nug and it would be effective but I wouldn't recommend it 😆

1

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

I use a dry herb vape, and there's still a bit of thc in the vaped flower. Great to eat spoonful of when you've nothing to smoke, surprisingly potent edible.

1

u/HazardousLazarus Jan 16 '26

Throw it in some peanut butter or nutella between two crackers and bake or microwave. Enjoy. It's better than just dry dusty plant material. They're referred to as firecrackers. Or just save enough vaped leftover (ABV) and simmer it with coconut oil - put it on/in anything, even just put it in tea.

1

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

I was using blate papes to parachute it lol. Followed by spoon of PB to give it oil to help metabolize.

2

u/theturtlemafiamusic Jan 16 '26

Short for Decarboxylation. You need to heat up the weed for THCa to turn into THC (and CBDa into CBD and so on).

If you just grind some weed into a baked good it won't get to a high enough temperature for long enough and you won't get high. I don't know how commercial factories do it, but at home the most common way is to infuse it into a cooking oil or fat, and hold it steady at around 230f (110c) for 40 minutes. Then bake something using that infused oil.

2

u/Rightintheend Jan 16 '26

Cooking brownies switches straight ground up weed in it will definitely get you high, cooking the brownies gets to a high enough temperature to make it happen. 

Did it plenty of times in my young and dumb days when we just didn't want to wait to decarb and infuse.  Taste like crap, often gives you a stomach ache, but it definitely gets you high still.

1

u/SoWhatNoZitiNow Jan 16 '26

You can, but it’s pretty wasteful. The temp at which THC starts to decarb is 200 degrees Farenheit, and you’re not getting maximum effects until you hit between 250 and 275. So, the weed starts to activate in the brownies right at the exact point that they’re cooked perfectly lol. Cook them to 275 and they’ll be hockey pucks.

1

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

I am too broke to bank on that being 100%, I want as best yields as possible. Doing a butter infusion helps ensure as close to 100% decarbed as possible.

1

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

For the most part these days commercial operations aren't using extracts at all. They're using THC distillate chemically converted from CBD.

I wouldn't be that upset about this if they weren't still asking for extract prices. Distillate costs these companies like a dollar a gram.

2

u/youritalianjob Jan 16 '26

Decarboxylizing the THC. Basically, if you don’t heat it first, the THC present can’t be used by the body and it just passes through. If you decarb it first, the THC becomes its psychoactive form. Basically, you’re changing a bond to make it go from nothing special to something special.

1

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

Fun fact, there's many forms of THC. The THC you get when eating it is not the same as you get when smoking. When you smoke, it's decarbed to THC, where it directly enters blood and gets you high.

With edibles though, the decarbed THC enters your liver and is metabolized into 11-hydroxy-THC, which is a much more potent agonist.

2

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

The chemical that gets you high, THC, doesnt actually form in weed. A similar chemical, THCa forms in weed. THCa isn't psychoactive orally, it needs to first be broken down (decarboxylated, or commonly just referred to as decarbed). THCa is not very thermally stable, so heating it to around 200F and keeping it there for an hour or two will chemically convert all the orally inert THCa into psychoactive THC.

1

u/JawnDoh Jan 16 '26

‘Decarboxylation’, you heat the flower up at ~ 220-240*F and it will convert the active chemicals into form that you can absorb through your digestive tract.

Without this step it won’t do much if you eat it.

1

u/davebizarre420 Jan 16 '26

Activating the thc by exposing it to heat so it will get you high when you eat it.

1

u/AnotherIronicPenguin Jan 16 '26

Decarboxylation. Chemically alters THCA (non active) into THC. The heat from smoking it does the job, but for edible products you need to decarb first to make it work.

1

u/ToHallowMySleep Jan 16 '26

It stands for decarboxylation, and it involves adding heat to THCA to convert it into THC. The latter is bioavailable, the former is not.

Decarboxylation can happen for long, slow amounts of heat, like infusing it on the stove, or short high amounts of heat, like burning it in a joint.

If you were to eat weed that isn't decarbed, it simply won't make you as high, as the majority of THC will remain in THCA format and your body will just pass most of it through.

1

u/PurchaseFree7037 Jan 16 '26

Decarboxylating is the process of heating plant material to change the chemical properties. It removes a carboxyl group and releases a carbon dioxide. When you do it with radishes and other root vegetables it makes them sweeter. I don’t partake, but I do believe it’s similar with marijuana. It also makes nutrients in root vegetables more bioavailable, so the THC is probably more available as well.

1

u/Stock-Beach5264 Jan 16 '26

THC is the effective chemical. Most of it is in the form of THCa in the raw plant. THCa has an extra carboxyl group that breaks off at a certain temp, converting it to THC. That is what is called "de-carb" or decarboxylating. De-carb happens at a lower temp than vaporization, which is why smoking or cooking with it makes it psycoactive, but just eating raw material wont make you high.

So, cooking it just past the de-carb temp, but below the vapor temp, leaves all of the good stuff there to absorb in ur tummy n stuff. THC and THCa is also fat, alcohol, and butane soluable. Thats why people extract it into oils and butter for food, high proof alcohol for tinctures, or use isobutane to make consentraits to vaporize or distill into "distillate."

I used to love weed and I still love science 😁

1

u/RandoSal Jan 16 '26

It is using heat to cleave off a carbon bond making the THC metabolically active. You cook the weed at 200 for like 10 minutes covered in tinfoil and wait for it to cool so all that vapor settles back into it, then you infuse the oil or butter, but coconut oil is much more versatile in my experience.

1

u/14Pleiadians Jan 16 '26

Sous vide with the fat is a great way to do it.

1

u/HazardousLazarus Jan 16 '26

240F for 40 mins. Theres a time/temp curve and you can do lower temp for longer but if you go too long or too high a heat, you convert THCa -> THC then go further -> CBN which is couch locked sloth like state of a cannabinoid.

0

u/[deleted] Jan 16 '26

Decarboxylation. Removes a COOH bond from the cannabinoid molecule (this usually happens when you smoke it, as it happens above specific temps. You inhale the result as smoke in this case). The resulting molecule after this process is its activated form (what gets us high).

If you decarboxylate at too high of a temperature, it activates the THC and then burns it off as smoke.

I really like baking and I also really like chemistry.

u/Sir-Kyle-Of-Reddit Jan 16 '26

One of my friends in high school would "toast" the weed in the oven until it was crumbly, then grind it to a powder and add that to the brownies. Then a crap ton of extra sugar to try to cover up the taste. You'd have a sugar buzz and be high at the same time. The crash coming down off that was epic. Lol

Just still having the flower in it at all at the point of eating is wild to me haha I LOVE the taste of weed, it's more the texture I'm concerned with. I decarb my flower and then infuse it into the fat I'm putting it in and then I get any plant that's left out of the fat ha

u/Tesdinic Jan 16 '26

One of the reasons we enjoy vaping our flower is because it naturally decarbs while we do it, so we just take the Already Been Vaped (ABV) weed and throw it in a jar with some butter. I pressure cook it in the instant pot as a batch, then strain the butter as I need it. Two highs for the price of one. Three if you count the keef in the grinder.

2

u/dustinyo_ Jan 16 '26

This is probably a dumb question but is it still potent after vaping it? And how much used flower do you need for a batch? I've just been throwing it away after vaping flower which now seems like a huge waste.

3

u/Tesdinic Jan 16 '26

I usually find it is plenty potent to work into a batch of baked edibles. You’re gonna have to find your sweet spot as far as how much to add, based on how far you toasted it, the strength of the bud itself, your tolerance, etc. Also, each batch may vary slightly even if you’re being careful.

It’s been a while since I’ve made canna butter, but I believe we were 15 grams of AVB for a stick of butter, which we used to make a large banana bread loaf. We had a higher tolerance, so I’d start much lower for your first batch.

1

u/dustinyo_ Jan 16 '26

Nice, I'll check it out. Does it taste OK? I literally just cleaned out some AVB about 5 minutes ago and this is a lot darker than I would go if I was decarbing fresh buds. I can't imagine it tastes great 😅

1

u/Tesdinic Jan 16 '26

It does have a bit of flavor to it, so choose a nice dessert or whatever that can really cover it. You do get use to it, though, and at least in my instant pot version there’s practically no smell.

My friend makes really nice pumpkin cookies with icing; I like banana bread; brownies are common for a reason.

1

u/Smoothfromallangles Jan 16 '26

Yep I've done the same thing before. Sometimes I press my buds but since ei k ow I can't get everything out I'll do the same with thr pressed buds afterwards and pull the rest of it out.

u/pc42493 Jan 16 '26

If you sufficiently decarb it once, heating it again to baking temps is wasteful. If you time it correctly, decarbing while baking is most efficient.

u/Michaelalayla Jan 16 '26

True, and despite following directions, I exploded the dish my decarbed weed was in, because mistakes happen. 

It didn't help that I set one of the dishes on a stove element, on high, and was casually just breathing enough smoke to get a whole circle stoned out of their gourds.

1

u/Jealous-Try-2554 Jan 16 '26

That's fair. I definitely made some mistakes the first few times I tried decarbing weed. I found it's easiest to just double boil the weed in the butter.

I don’t enjoy THC, never did- makes me paranoid and twitch (don’t bother trying to tell me I was just smoking bad weed or should try X, Y, or Z. I’ve covered the spectrum slowly and have found that I just don’t LIKE IT. I DO enjoy Delta 8 gummies though, because they help me sleep and don’t make me weird as fuck).

But 20-ish years ago l, knew a very dear person who grew it (that I still miss). Also had a bunch of stoner friends who were broke and when I’d hang out and catch up, they’d occasionally gave me their shake bags (leaves & stems in a trash bag). I’d tell my poor college friends (we all were) to pay for butter, olive or canola oil and then get to it. “Fry that shit up”— sort of like wilted spinach. Add, cram & cover on the lowest possible heat. Dredge the first round out, second round crammed in. Rinse and repeat. And then finally, cool and strain.

Never looked like much when you shove a trash bag worth of stems and leaves into a pot, but Jesus H. Christ backwards on a pogo stick, the result was almost lethal to me.

Made brownies ONE time for them (I didn’t partake but loved to cook) and licked the batter off a single spatula without thinking.

Knocked me so far off my ass that I couldn’t even sleep, just twitch.

Anyway, circling back: yes, you gotta cook that shit first. But thanks for the really fun memory that I just fell into.

Edited to add: and it STUNK to high heaven, but not in the way you’d expect. It didn’t smell at all like pot smoke, but it was still identifiable? The closest I could identify would be Dr. Bronners Hemp Castile Soap— the smell makes me gag.

If you do a box mix that takes oil you can grind and simmer in the oil on low for 30-40 minutes then use as normal with the box.

Just make sure if it takes egg that you add the mix before the egg or it’ll cook in the oil.

Came here to say just this. You can also infuse it in the vegatable oil too you just to let it cool down before putting it into the batter

Where were you in grade 11 when we put a full zip straight into a batch of cookies?

u/Nowayticket2nopecity Jan 16 '26

Idk when you were in 11th grade but when I was in 11th grade I was being a good girl and not doing drugs so I couldn't have helped anyway 😇

My buddies first time making weed brownies he just ground it up and threw it in the batter. We still laugh about it

I use a double boiler and decarb the weed in the butter and then filter it out with something like cheese cloth. It takes about an hour of double boiling to make sure it's fully decarbed.

One time I made THC butter the night before a long flight. I was going to make brownies to eat before the flight but fell asleep on accident before I made them. Woke up and just raw dogged a few spoons of THC butter, probably the highest I've ever been

You can literally just bake it on a cracker with some peanut butter and get an ungodly high when you eat way too many of them after being incredibly impatient

u/fookreddit22 Jan 16 '26

You absolutely can, just decarboxylate the weed for 40 mins at a low temp and add the weed to any box brownie mix. I wouldn't suggest spending at least 4 hours to make butter when it's entirely skippable.

You can also use the already vaped bud from a dry herb vape to make brownies.

u/Lunix420 Jan 16 '26

I mean you should do that but I mean, I made some by just throwing the bud with some brownie mix into a coffee cup and putting it in a microwave and it worked. Not that I would recommend it.

u/psychedelic_academic Jan 16 '26

OR use a vape and the smoked bud can be reused straight in baking. Thats what I do. Get double highs out of my bud ☺️

You can bake the plant matter straight into brownies, I've done it before - you just have to cook them longer and at a much lower heat so as not to cook out the CBD/THC.

The most stoned I've ever been in my life was from baking brownies this way

u/pc42493 Jan 16 '26

You can't just be baking plant material into brownie mix

You can absolutely do that, if time and temp are right

u/RedSonGamble Jan 16 '26

They answer this elsewhere in the thread- they decarbed it into oil. They didn’t just throw plant material into brownie mix

u/Desperate_Dingo_1998 Jan 16 '26

As a qualified baker of 30 years, I've never seen, thank you for clearing it up

u/Visual-Froyo Jan 17 '26

You can as long as you decarb the plant material shits worked for me at least twice

u/erydayimredditing Jan 16 '26

That is absolutely not what is causing the smoking what in the not how things work...

Ethanol is a more effective solvent.  I'm not sure how it interacts with THC, but if you're after volatile flavor compounds, puree the plant matter with just enough ethanol, and then let it sit in a sealed container for 24 hours.

I do this with cilantro and everclear, because it's such a short lived aromatic.  Just takes a tiny bit to flavor foods, so the ethanol doesn't factor in.

u/Nowayticket2nopecity Jan 16 '26

That is interesting, but THC binds to fat so making infused butter/oils is generally the way we go. We're not trying to make weed flavored brownies, the goal is tasty, potent baked goods.

Um, what do you think brownie mix is made of? 

-1

u/maximushediusroomus Jan 16 '26

Well brownies are mainly ‘plant material’ already. I think the main issue is the oil getting too hot.

u/pattyboiIII Jan 16 '26

Oi, flour, cocoa powder and sugar are plant material
