Pros and Cons of Using an at-Home Potency Testing Device

@justhighlo October 27, 2022 No Comments

Over a year ago, maybe even longer, I started using a handy little device called the tCheck (affiliate link, please use my code: justhilo for a lil discount). It’s a palm-sized device that allows you to check the potency of your infusions, raw flower, concentrates, you name it. I’m not afraid of a little math so I thought, “how useful could this thing even be?” Turns out it’s pretty fucking useful. I test every infusion

What Information Should I put on Edible Food Labels?

@justhighlo September 22, 2022 No Comments

One side effect of becoming the “person who makes edibles” in your social circle is frequently asking if you’ll make a treat for a friend or family member. Since I have limited time and desire to be in the kitchen, I don’t often say an outright yes to these requests and make a general announcement: “come over, bring a container and take what you want.” As much as I love my friends, I have noticed

Why I LOVE THC Infused Drinks

@justhighlo September 7, 2022 No Comments

I have been using and making cannabis edibles off and on for about 15 years. At first, I would make the typical boxed brownies that would send my friends into space while I’d be sitting there pissed off that I wasted all that flower. Now that I’m approaching my 10,000 hours (I have to be close, right?), I have learned that I just need to focus on edibles that are primarily absorbed through my mouth

The 6 Cooking and Food Books I Turn to the Most

@justhighlo August 30, 2022 No Comments

I love books. A lot. And while most of my reading is done on a cheap and not very well made Chinese e-reader because I just had to have an e-ink screen with access to the google play store, I do like to keep a selection of real books for reference purposes. Especially food and cooking books. The list below is not all of my cookbooks but they are the ones I’ve been turning to

Which is more potent? 2 hour infusions or 6 hour infusions?

@justhighlo October 21, 2021 No Comments

We are back at our potency testing competitions and this week we’re going to find out just how much of a difference there is between a 2 hour infusion and a 6 hour infusion. TBH, I was kind of surprised by the results, even though my gut kind of had a feeling all along. I’m not going into too much detail here about the results (but if you would like a transcript, I’ll happily provide

Earlier this year I kept seeing ads for a potency testing device. I saw the ads enough that I was finally like, ok, I’ll bite. Because who DOESN’T want to know how potent their homemade edibles are? That’s probably the biggest downfall of making edibles at home: not knowing precisely how potent or not your final product is. I’ll be posting a longer review about the actual device in a couple of weeks, but in

What is compound butter?

@justhighlo March 31, 2021 No Comments

I want to talk about an ingredient that has become an essential staple in my kitchen: compound butter. This is what takes the gorgeous cuts of beef I pick up at the butcher shop from good enough to great. A big fat scoop of the Kitchenista’s Citrus and Herb Butter on top of my filet is damn near my favorite thing I have been making lately. What is compound butter? Compound butter is butter that

#LunchWithLo Episode 2: Lickit Lollipop Review

@justhighlo April 5, 2019 No Comments

This week’s episode of Lunch With Lo is all about my favorite edibles in Colorado: Canyon Cultivation‘s LickIt Lollipops #thcsweetlife. I’m calling this one a snack sized episode because I didn’t make anything, I’m just showing off someone else’s tasty treats. However, this episode is actually longer than my last episode. Oops. Guess I talk too much. In the future, Snack Sized editions of #lunchwithlo will be shorter and easier to digest. Like last week,

#LunchWithLo Episode 1: Lavender Gin & Tonic with DRAM CBD

@justhighlo March 29, 2019 No Comments

I’m so excited to officially launch my cannabis focused cooking channel: Lunch With Lo. This has been a year in the making. And really, maybe even my entire lifetime in the making. The first episode is a super simple sleepy time cocktail packed with some CBD, lavender simple syrup, and the only good gin out there, Hendrick’s. This little glass packs a punch and is sure to get you ready for bed.

Lickit Lollipops Review

@justhighlo August 16, 2018 No Comments

Edibles are my favorite way to consume cannabis. They’re discreet, easy to use, and if dosed correctly, can set you up for a fantastic and productive day. I love taking 10-20mg before a long writing session. It gives me just enough focus to stay on task and opens up the creativity flow a bit so I can really get things done. One block I have with writing is that I am dyslexic and also a
