    I would just strain it, it's easy enough to do. And you won't end up with a mouth full of plant.

    Yes you would get the same results. I just cap my decarb keif up. These are from 20% Bud, and I have them at 90mg. I wouldn't go over that amount. These piles seem to have a delayed reaction. Some times it takes 4 to 6 hours after taking one for it to start working, and how it works. haha

    Would that be the only difference though, just plant being in it, would it be ok to decarb, put it straight into melted butter, strain it straight into the mix and straight into the oven, or would I have to leave it in the butter d boil it a while and leave it cool etc, and basically use the next day, basically I’ve never made edible myself before and was going to give it a whirl, I wanted to basically do absolutely everything tonight so the cake is all just ready to eat so I’m smelling the gaff out for days, I live in the U.K. damn it that’s all and my neighbours are the type to defo make a few calls, nothing major lol!

    No, once it is decarb it is active, and needs no more cooking.

    No you need to run the decarb weed over 150 micron screen that is if you are using just buds. If you are using leaves, I would go with A 100 micron screen for that to get the Keif out. Then you can weight out the Keif into mg into your pills, or put them in the butter and make your cake, if you just want to bake A cake. I usually take out 5 to 7 grams of keif out of one oz of buds.

    Hey George, I was wondering if I could tap you up a bit more on capsulising, (ie, keif weight per capsule etc,) in a couple weeks if it was ok, might be an easier idea to consume that’s all,
    Thanks
