Fisher-Price, a leading toy manufacturer, has introduced a new and innovative product called the "Fisher-Price Matic Brew." This product is designed for children aged 3 and above and aims to provide them with a fun and interactive brewing experience. The Fisher-Price Matic Brew is a pretend play coffee maker that allows children to imitate the process of making coffee. It comes with a variety of accessories, including coffee pods, a coffee pot, and cups. The coffee maker also features realistic sound effects, such as the sound of water boiling and coffee dripping. The Matic Brew is easy to use, with simple buttons that children can press to start the brewing process.
With the Magical Butter Machine you can infuse cannabis into almost anything. The easy to use two button system makes operation simple, and its high quality stainless steel construction means the magical butter machine will last the distance.
Furthermore, you re not confined to just making edibles as the Magical Butter Machine can also be used to produce infused topicals, balms, lotions and even tinctures, too. After kinda flubbing my 196 proof tinc it s recovered, but I have no clue what the strength is, but it leaves a green film behind on glass and stainless steel, so I think it s kinda strong I did more reading.

Ive been making both budders for awhile now. Butter and coco or butter won't mix with water, and will separate at room temp. So when you want to make something, but don't have enough for the 2 cup minimum, use what you have and put in as much water as you want. So if you have enough abv for 1 cup of product, use that and the 1 cup, and top with water so the MB is at least at it's min, but it won't matter if you go to 'max' either. When the cycle is done pour into a curve-sided container and put in the fridge for awhile, til the top layer is solid. Press down on one side and the other will flip up - thats your good stuff. The watery goop on the bottom can get dumped. You might have to remelt and refilter your disk, depending on how well it was filtered the first time.
I made tincture with Everclear in mine - the second thing I ever made, and all the EC boiled off. I'm at 1300 ft above sea level. MB tech support told me to add 1/4 cup of demineralized water to the EC mix to avoid evaporation. Water won't hurt the MB either.
I have to go find some pipettes. I got the pill machine yesterday and spent a bit of time playing with it. This one has a spring-loaded top and bottom, so you get exert some pressure to ensure the caps stay together. I'm looking forward to trying this out!
Except the instructions for the mb explicitly say not to add water. You got specific instructions to add a limited amount of water because of your altitude, that doesn't mean anyone can add as much water as they like. So unless the manufacturer comes on and says its actually not a problem, I think I'll stay safe and follow their instructions.

@Biznatch Then you should continue making larger batches and stick to the directions completely. But from a common sense perspective if alcohol, butter, oil, whatever can work in there without issue, so will water. It's not rocket science. The biggest difference between this and a slow cooker is the immersion blender fitting and more temp controls. And some led lighting.
I like using the forums to know if I'm on the right track with something, and also to learn and share new ideas. If you don't like learning new ways to get more value out of your widgets that's really your own personal direction.
The MB machine directions also doesn't state to use it outdoors when it's evaporating hot alcohol. Check with any firefighter about what you should be doing when working around hot alcohol fumes some time. Hint - it's much worse than hot water fumes.

@Biznatch, What I've noticed with the Magical Butter Maker, the company keeps changing the directions on this machine. I'll think I need to do it a certain way then I find out that the directions have changed again. You need to read the instructions online to be up to date. Don't assume the directions with the unit are correct.
FC is a place where we exchange ideas. You can use the info or not. Thanks @killick I may decide to add water next time I use the magical butter maker. I would also reuse the same butter or oil to increase the potency, if it wasn't strong enough. That tidbit of info is not in the instructions either, but I think it's a helpful suggestion.
Open up to some of the suggestions the members have, you may actually learn something in the process. Do what you think is best.

@CarolKing re the double-batching - I made a 2 cup batch of MCT oil as the very first thing I did with the machine. It wasn't all decarbed, and I thought the '160 at 1 hour' setting was too short, so I did it for 4 hours at 210. It was pretty good.
Then I found the Facebook forum, 'Magical Butter Users United', and learned *a lot* on there. IE don't trust the decarb as it's so narrow, do multiple runs with the same ingredients, do long soaks between multiple runs for some things, open it up midway to check and make sure you are happy with it, then restart, etc, etc. Lots of great info and helpful people on there as well.
After kinda flubbing my 196 proof tinc (it's recovered, but I have no clue what the strength is, but it leaves a green film behind on glass and stainless steel, so I think it's kinda strong) I did more reading. I put my 2 cups of pre-MB'd MCT oil back into the MB, added the remaining 2 cups of MCT oil and 50g decarbed bud, and ran a 4 hour 200 tinc session, followed by a 1 hour butter at 160. From the ~50g of herb there is maybe 1/2 inch of goop on the bottom. The rest of the herb is embedded in the MCT oil. It tastes fantastic! I put 3 tablespoons in 3/4 cup of coffee, then topped with milk - delicious happy brekkie drink
@Biznatch I didn't mean to come across as grumpy, but people that tend to follow direction well tend not to spend a ton of time on marijuana forums, so I was a bit startled. To each their own. Deel free to ask away about anything in the forums, and lots of people will be happy to share their knowledge - it's what makes the interweb so great, and this part of it so special!

PS - since separating the sludge from the MCT oil I wanst sure what to do with the sludge, but tossing it seemed wasteful. I now have a bunch of 00 cannacaps. They work great! A couple of caps in the am, plus a coffee or tea with enhanced MCT oil, and I'm off to a great start to the day!
The MB machine is a great addition to the kitchen and will save a lot of processing time each month.

I'm finally getting around to this again. I have lets say a few quarts each of sugar trim and abv. I washed a bunch of the abv and dried it but then said screw it I'm mainly after cannacaps, taste isn't the priority so I am also using the unwashed abv. I have a big tub of coconut oil that's a a bit dated but seems okay.
I put a cup or two of oil, a bunch of the trim/abv, a splash of water, and a dollop of sunflower lecithin in the mbm, and fired it up at 190f for two hours. I was surprised that there was a couple of burnt spots, decided that it prolly needs more water next time. Repeated with mostly fresh oil, and was on hand to monitor.
I thought it was odd that the mbm boils liquids on the 190f setting!? It was clearly bubbling the liquid after just 10-15 minutes so I changed the heat setting to 160f for the second batch, which is the recommended oil temperature anyways. Boiling temperature is 212f, so it's not surprising that this thing can burn.
My plan is to re-use the oil as mach as possible in subsequent batches as I plow through this material, making it as strong as possible so the higher temp seemed justified at first but 160f it is from now on. I have been using a combination of fine mesh strainer for dripping and cheesecloth for squeezing.
I have a pill maker and a bunch of empty gelatin capsules, I may try using a pet syringe or something to keep from making a big mess. I've never made capsules of any kind and would like to keep these as clean as possible, so any suggestions would be appreciated!

One of the key features of the Fisher-Price Matic Brew is its emphasis on imaginative play. Children can pretend to be baristas, serving coffee to their friends and family. This helps to develop their creativity, communication skills, and social interaction. Additionally, the Matic Brew promotes fine motor skills development as children handle the accessories, insert the coffee pods, and pour the coffee into the cups. This hands-on experience allows children to improve their hand-eye coordination and dexterity. The Fisher-Price Matic Brew is also a safe and durable toy. It is made from high-quality materials that are non-toxic and free from harmful chemicals. The coffee pot and cups are designed to be kid-friendly, with no sharp edges or small parts that can be a choking hazard. In conclusion, the Fisher-Price Matic Brew is a fantastic pretend play toy that offers children an imaginative and interactive brewing experience. With its realistic sound effects, easy-to-use buttons, and emphasis on imaginative play, it provides children with a fun and educational way to learn about the process of making coffee..
Reviews for "Brewing Coffee at Home Has Never Been Easier with Fisher Price Matic Brew"
1. John - 2 stars
I was really disappointed with the Fisher Price Matic Brew. First of all, the coffee it produced tasted extremely weak and watery. No matter how much coffee I added or adjusted the settings, it just couldn't brew a good cup of coffee. The machine also had a tendency to clog and overflow, resulting in a messy cleanup every time I tried to use it. Overall, it was a frustrating experience and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable coffee maker.
2. Sarah - 1 star
The Fisher Price Matic Brew is a complete waste of money. Not only did it produce terrible tasting coffee, but it also broke after just a few uses. The motor stopped working and I couldn't even get it to turn on. It is poorly made and not worth the price tag. I would advise anyone interested in buying a coffee maker to stay far away from this one.
3. Michael - 2 stars
I had high hopes for the Fisher Price Matic Brew, but it failed to meet my expectations. The coffee it brewed was consistently lukewarm and lacked flavor. I also found that the machine was quite loud and would wake up the whole house every time I tried to use it in the morning. Additionally, the design of the brew basket made it difficult to fully clean, which resulted in a build-up of residue over time. Overall, I was not pleased with this coffee maker and would not buy it again.
4. Emily - 2 stars
The Fisher Price Matic Brew was a disappointment for me. The brewing process took much longer than expected, and even then, the coffee was not hot enough for my liking. The machine also had a tendency to drip and leak, which made a mess on my countertop. On top of that, the controls were not intuitive and it took me a while to figure out how to operate it properly. I would not recommend this coffee maker as there are better options available on the market.
