Equipment

Ingredients

  • 3 Cups Full Fat Milk or Cream Divided
  • a Portion Size of Decarbed Ground Cannabis Flower Toss-In per Potency Preference

Instructions

  • Use our Primary Staples Infusion Potency Calculator to determine how many grams of Cannabis Flower you want to use.
  • Weigh and measure the amount of Cannabis Flower you intend to use for this recipe on the digital kitchen scale.
  • Do not grind the flower. Break the flower buds to kernel sized pieces.
  • Add water in the bottom pan of your double broiler. Heat until boiling.
  • Add 2 cups of full fat milk or cream to the top pan of the double broiler.
  • Reserve 1 cup of milk or cream and put to the side.
  • Add Cannabis Flower to the pan of milk milk and give it a slight stir.
  • Place top of double broiler with milk and flower on the bottom pan of the double broiler holding the boiling water.
  • Bring mixture to a low simmer.
  • Stir constantly for 10 to 15 minutes or until your milk has reduced by half. Scrape edges with a rubber spatula.
  • *NOTE: It typically takes about 10 to 15 minutes to reduce every 2 cups of milk or cream. If you use more milk, increase your simmer time stirring at the stove. If you use less milk, decrease your simmer time. Watch the edges of your double broiler and you'll be able to tell when the milk has reduced by about half the volume.
  • Maintain your heat at about 165℉ during the simmer process.
  • Remove top of broiler from bottom broiler.
  • Add your reserved 1 cup of milk to the heated milk and flower mixture.
  • Stir well.
  • Line your measuring cup with cheesecloth
  • Slowly pour milk mixture over the top of the cheesecloth and allow milk to strain through, leaving the flower pulp behind.
  • Carefully lift the cheesecloth out of the measuring cup and squeeze the remaining milk from the pulp mixture into the measuring cup.
  • Pour milk or cream into silicone ice cube tray molds.
  • Place filled trays in freezer.
  • When fully frozen, individual frozen milk tablets can be removed from the trays and placed into to zip freezer bags.
  • Label zip freezer bag with the cannabis potency per TBS or whatever measurement unit you are using for the individual tablets.
  • Keep tablets in the freezer until ready to use.
  • Frozen tablets defrost faster than you think. When using tablets in recipes, work quickly or place tablets in a small bowl to defrost while preparing the rest of the other recipe as needed.

Betsy's Infusion Notes:

Ground Cannabis Flower Toss In is the method used to create this staple ingredient.
Infused milk or cream tablets can be:
  1. Dropped into a hot cup of morning coffee topped off with your favorite creamer.
  2. Dropped into a cup of hot chocolate.
  3. Added to any baking mixture that calls for milk.
  4. Used as a cream base for sauces such as alfredo sauce or creamy cheese sauce.
  5. Added to a bowl of cereal.
