My first podcast guest hosted a beautiful infused lunch recently and I had the opportunity to attend. It was a perfect afternoon in a lovely setting, a wonderful group of people coming together to celebrate all things cannabis. The mood was exultant despite the rain that fell most of the afternoon.   Find out how Nadia infused this lunch and what made it special.

Chef Brandon is no stranger to culinary cannabis. As a partner at the Trichome Institute and creator of the Cooking with Cannabis course offered there, he's been working with the plant for long enough to understand the difference between science and myth. In this episode we debunk several common myths regarding cannabis edibles as well as the best methods to decarb and infuse as per the latest science!

• Trichome Institute - cannabis education company
• American Culinary Federation
• newest course - Cooking with Cannabis
• Chef Brandon Allen - YouTube
• Max Montrose - president of Trichome Institute
• Food Forest Cafe - vegan gluten free restaurant
• Start low & go slow - advice from an edibles expert! Start with the lowest possible dose and don't take anymore for a 24 hour period. 
• Sativa vs. Indica edibles high - power of suggestion + placebo - consumption determines function
• Terpenes mostly destroyed by decarb process and stomach acids - terpenes drive effects not whether it's an indica or sativa
• Myth: mangoes will get you higher, black pepper will bring you down if you get too high 
• Shaping Fire podcast
• CBD doesn't necessarily help when you're too high - depends on the person
• Best thing to do if you're too high is to distract yourself
• Best method to decarb - 270F for 30 minutes, ideally in a convection oven
• Avocado + MCT + olive oil - 212F 40 minutes in preheated oil
• Instapot Vortex Pro - multiuse convection oven & airfryer - on Amazon

This episode covers all the questions you may have about using the tCheck Potency Tester. An invaluable tool for edibles enthusiasts who love to share their edibles with others. Meet Parker, a tier 2 tech support guru who answers my questions about how the tCheck works and what makes it unique!

I've had a tCheck for years, and I recently upgraded to the tCheck 3. So I'm updating the post with what's changed, what hasn't, and Parker's gummy recipe that I still think is one of the easiest in my back pocket for anyone new to making their own edibles.

If you enjoy edibles you may wonder whether it's worth going to all the trouble to make your own? Have you ever compared the edibles you can buy on the legal or legacy market in relation to the cost of making your own? While the results may not surprise you, the advantages of making your own edibles extend far beyond the cost. For now though, we take a look at the cost difference between making your own edibles vs. buying from the legal or legacy market. I should note that the prices I'm providing are based on prices in Ontario, Canada and thus in Canadian dollars.
