How to Use the Cannabis Edibles Dosage Calculator
This step-by-step guide will help you accurately calculate the total THC content and the potency of your homemade cannabis edibles using the Cannabis Edibles Dosage Calculator.
Step 1: Input Cannabis Amount
Begin by entering the total amount of cannabis you plan to use in grams. This should be a number between 0.1 and 1000 grams. Ensure accuracy by using a scale to measure your cannabis.
Step 2: Enter THC Percentage
Input the percentage of THC present in your cannabis. This information is usually available on the packaging or lab report of your cannabis product. The THC percentage should be a value between 0.1% and 35%.
Step 3: Specify the Number of Servings
Decide how many servings you wish to make with your cannabis infusion. Enter this number into the calculator. Note that acceptable values range from 1 to 100 servings.
Step 4: Choose Infusion Oil or Butter Type
Select the type of oil or butter you are using for the infusion. This choice affects the efficiency of THC extraction. Options available are:
- Coconut Oil (85% efficiency): Known for its high efficiency.
- Butter (80% efficiency): A common choice for traditional recipes.
- Olive Oil (75% efficiency): Often chosen for healthier recipes.
Step 5: Calculate Results
Once all fields are filled out, the calculator will automatically perform calculations to provide the following results:
- Total THC Content (mg): This is the total amount of THC present in your entire edible batch. It is calculated using the formula: cannabisAmount * 1000 * (thcPercentage/100) * oilType * 0.877.
- THC per Serving (mg): This indicates the amount of THC per individual serving, calculated as totalThc / servings. It provides a clear understanding of the potency for each serve.
- Potency Level: Displays the THC content per serving, offering a concise view of the edible’s strength.
Make sure to consume edibles responsibly and be mindful of the dosage per serving to avoid overconsumption.
