In C.S. Lewis' fantasy novel, "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe," the White Witch plays a central and antagonistic role. Also known as Jadis, she is a powerful and malevolent ruler of the enchanted land of Narnia. The White Witch is introduced as someone who has imposed a never-ending winter on Narnia, which only she can control. She is often described as cold and heartless, representing the evil presence in the story.
Btw, one reason they’re suggesting the 160 deg range is because as you go higher in temp, the more likely it is that the more aromatic stuff gets cooked off completely and then there is the conversion of THC to CBN that also occurs as a function of adding oxygen and heat. If you don't care about those things, set the temp up and it will decarb faster.
I just want to make sure this machine fully decarbs all the THC and CBDs because past articles I ve read say that when fully decarbing marijuana it s best to be decarbed at temps between 220-250 degrees. My question just lies along the lines because most often those who watch it themselves rather than let a machine cook it all at its own temps get full benefits.
She is often described as cold and heartless, representing the evil presence in the story. Her goal is to maintain her power and keep Narnia under her control, which she achieves through fear and manipulation. The White Witch's signature weapon is her wand, with which she can turn creatures into stone.
MagicalButter Decarboxylation Question
So I bought the Magical Butter machine awhile ago. Before I got this machine I was making cannabutter manually and decarbing in the oven at 220 degrees. The machine has temperature settings up to 250 degrees but to make cannabutter with this machine it suggests to set it at 2 hrs at 160 degrees. I've searched everywhere for any Magical Butter test results and can't seem to find any besides people saying they got "ripped" which explains nothing to me. I just want to make sure this machine fully decarbs all the THC and CBDs because past articles I've read say that when fully decarbing marijuana it's best to be decarbed at temps between 220-250 degrees.
Has anyone ever had their butter tested from this machine? Right now I'm making my butter in the machine and I still take the contents out and decarb an extra 2 hours in an oven at 220 degrees just to make sure it's fully decarbed which produces great results but I would like to see detailed numbers in case this extra step is necessary or unnecessary or maybe I should just set the machine to a higher temperature if it's safe.

I don't trust it!
and I also don't think anyone has got it tested yet
awhile back I contacted them trying to figure out how hot and how long the built in decarb cycle was and they said they couldn't release that info to me because it was proprietary information
i mainly use my MB2 for vaped bud cooking, since i know that is fully decarbed

Well I was parked in front of their building in Seattle and tried to ask questions but it was closed already. And even though I saw some staff walk in and out of that building and I tried to get their attention, they just ignored me.

not surprised lol
they were like "oh shit another decarboxylation question"!

I can understand your concern. Maybe you know this already:
Decarboxylation is a thermal process. It requires a certain amount of energy to remove the CO2 from the “acidic” components such as THC-A, CBD-A, CBN-A, etc and convert them to “neutral” components.
You can add this energy at different rates and all it means is that some options will take longer than others. For example you could also let the plant material hang in the sun and eventually the acidic components will convert to neutral, albeit not as fast as if you were to add heat from an oven.
You’re absolutely correct, the only way to know how far along your conversion went analytically is to have it tested in a lab. But you ought to be able to sample some and since you have a reference from making it before you'd know if you were close or far away.
Btw, one reason they’re suggesting the 160 deg range is because as you go higher in temp, the more likely it is that the more aromatic stuff gets cooked off completely and then there is the conversion of THC to CBN that also occurs as a function of adding oxygen and heat.

Just out of curiosity, why did you purchase this thing?

Thanks for the reply guys. I guess I can only get my answers from a test. Well I sent some edibles in to be tested so hopefully I get some answers there. The reason I got the butter machine was just to cut through alot of the steps when making cannabutter. I guess the only way to find out if it was worth the money is to see my results. Stay tuned.

awesome id +rep you if i could!
whats it cost to get an edible tested where you are at?
it would've been cool if you sent a edible made from the croc pot/oven decarb method as well to compare

Hey guys thought I'd give a late update. So for dry herbs it seems like the magical butter works well. For this batch I just put the herb straight into the MagicalButter Machine at 160 degrees at 2 hours instead of decarbing the herb beforehand in the oven like last time. Looks like it does a great job so far. Out of 44.62mg of THC-A, 36.7mg was activated to THC.

Thanks R.E.I. for sharing the report. Look forward to further reportage. I will look for the toffee tin around . unless you sell it in one of dem guv'ment stores where I might see it, but won't be buying nuthing from those people.
My grandma knew Mr. Brown and got a recipe for Almond Roca. I made it every year and sent it to all friends who believed in X-mass. Major smiles. I tripled the amount of almonds. thanks.

I could swear all these numbers mean something. Something worked. By your means, you seem to just want to get the maximum benefit out of the entire process and I couldn't agree more for your reasoning since you bought a product that you expect to do the work for you. Nothing wrong with that. Now I have not done a lot of this stuff at all. A few at best but before the machine, did you have better results as a preference doing it all yourself? My question just lies along the lines because most often those who watch it themselves rather than let a machine cook it all at its own temps get full benefits.
The decarbed process in your hash would be a bit off because even though you have a pure product, it's not spread out. Hash tends to stick together so get that stuff really chopped up and ground apart. The surface area matters because I've seen whole buds placed in butter and they still have a wild effect. The difference is that some choose to cook butter for an hour, others all day by crockpot. Not a bad idea but again they are relying on something that is automatic and even those crockpots can get pretty toasty. Not crazy hot but I can imagine that full time boiling has a bit of a defeating effect because being able to degrade the thc faster than a simmer. Again this is only my opinion but pot really seems to get full benefits as a slow and low gets the job done it will just take some time as your decarb takes full effect.
If you want this stuff really good, take your time with it and ride it out.
I know I plan to make some fantastic butter and make sure that the fat in it is very high in content. In fact I'm going to check up on that now. Doing something like this with fire pot just makes me want to spend a little bit more of everything in finishing that product.
She uses this power to punish those who dare to oppose her and to instill fear in her subjects. Throughout the story, she demonstrates her ability to create illusions and manipulate others to serve her whims. One of the main conflicts in the story revolves around the White Witch's fear of a prophecy, which foretells the return of Aslan, the rightful ruler of Narnia. Aslan is depicted as a majestic and benevolent lion who represents goodness and justice. The White Witch sees this possible return as a threat to her power, leading her to do everything in her power to prevent it. Despite her cruel and ruthless nature, the White Witch is not without her weaknesses. Her attachment to power blinds her to the consequences of her actions, causing her to underestimate her adversaries. She also greatly fears and despises humans, viewing them as a threat to her reign. In the end, the White Witch's reign of tyranny comes to an end with the arrival of Aslan and the sacrifice of one of the main characters, Edmund. Aslan's resurrection and subsequent defeat of the White Witch finally brings about the end of her rule, allowing Narnia to be restored to its rightful state. The character of the White Witch in "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" serves as a symbol of evil, oppression, and the consequences of unchecked power. Through her actions, Lewis explores themes of courage, sacrifice, and the triumph of good over evil..
Reviews for "The White Witch's Quest for Immortality: The Power of the Deep Magic"
- Jane - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe". The story felt disjointed and lacked depth. The characters were one-dimensional and the plot felt rushed. The White Witch, who was supposed to be this menacing and powerful villain, fell flat for me. The book also didn't explore the magical world of Narnia to its full potential. Overall, I found it underwhelming and don't understand the hype surrounding it.
- Mark - 1 star - I really struggled to finish "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe". The writing style was simplistic and the dialogue felt outdated. The pacing was slow and I found myself losing interest in the story early on. The characters lacked development and I couldn't connect with any of them. The White Witch as a villain was underwhelming and didn't evoke any strong emotions. I was left wanting more from the book and wouldn't recommend it.
- Sarah - 2 stars - I had high expectations for "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" but unfortunately, it didn't live up to them. The writing style felt disjointed and the story lacked coherence. The characters were uninteresting and I couldn't invest in their journeys. Moreover, the White Witch didn't come across as particularly menacing or powerful. The whole book felt rushed and I was left feeling unsatisfied with the reading experience. I would recommend exploring other fantasy novels instead of wasting time on this one.
