*Important note: The potency level of this recipe should be about 27 mg of CBD per Tbsp. It should yield a little more than 13 Tbsp. If you’d like to adjust the potency, use this handy calculator. If you’re using average hemp-derived CBD, which you should be, the CBD content should be around 10%. If you’re using stronger flowers, adjust the amount accordingly. You can always raise the amount of CBD and oil proportionally to make more oil with each batch.
