This cannabis infused coconut oil Magical Butter Machine guide from Fordee at Herbistry420 shows the fastest, easiest way to make a batch of infused coconut oil at home. Three ingredients go into the MB2e, one button press starts the cycle, and one hour later you have a jar of potent cannabis coconut oil ready for edibles, capsules, or topicals. This Magical Butter Machine coconut oil recipe uses 20 grams of decarbed cannabis in 500 ml of coconut oil — a strong batch Fordee uses for infused candy and baked goods.
Why Use the Cannabis Infused Coconut Oil Magical Butter Machine Method?
The Magical Butter Machine controls the temperature automatically and runs a precise timed cycle — you do not have to watch the stove, stir, or monitor anything. Compared to a crockpot or stovetop method, the MB2e is hands-off: load the ingredients, press one button, and walk away. The cannabis infused coconut oil Magical Butter Machine also includes a built-in straining filter that makes cleanup faster and the finished oil cleaner than a cheesecloth setup.
Magical Butter Machine Coconut Oil Recipe: Ingredients
- 500 ml (approx. 2 cups) coconut oil — leave it out of the fridge beforehand so it is liquidy and easy to pour
- 20 grams decarbed cannabis — stored in the freezer until ready to use
- 2 tablespoons lecithin granules (or liquid lecithin) — emulsifier that improves potency absorption and texture
Fordee uses lecithin granules here because he wants to use up his granule supply. Either form works for cannabis coconut oil with lecithin. Making cannabis coconut oil with lecithin is especially recommended for edibles — the lecithin helps bind cannabinoids to the fat and is believed to improve how efficiently your body absorbs THC.
How to Make Cannabis Infused Coconut Oil in 3 Steps
Step 1: Load the Magical Butter Machine
Pour 500 ml of coconut oil into the Magical Butter Machine pitcher. Add 2 tablespoons of lecithin granules. Remove your decarbed cannabis from the freezer — Fordee stores it frozen to prevent sticking — and dump the 20 grams into the pitcher. Put the lid on the MB2e. This Magical Butter Machine coconut oil recipe runs at infused coconut oil 160 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 71°C) for one hour. Select oil, set to 160°F, and press the one-hour button.
Step 2: Run the 1-Hour Oil Cycle
On the MB2e control panel, select the oil setting and set the temperature to 160°F. Press the one-hour cycle button. The machine will heat, blend, and circulate the mixture automatically throughout the cycle. You do not need to stir or monitor it — the infused coconut oil 160 degrees setting holds temperature steady without burning off THC. The machine will beep when the cycle is complete.
Step 3: Strain and Handle the Cannabis Coconut Oil Sludge
Place the provided filter bag or a cheesecloth over a funnel positioned in a storage jar. Pour the hot infused oil through the filter — the plant material collects inside the filter bag. Put on the heat glove (included with the MB2e) and squeeze the bag firmly to extract every drop of oil. Save the cannabis coconut oil sludge left in the filter bag — it still contains THC and fat and can be used in baked goods. The finished oil will be darker while warm but lightens as it cools and solidifies in the fridge.
What to Do with Cannabis Coconut Oil Sludge
The cannabis coconut oil sludge left behind after straining is not waste. It contains residual THC bound to the remaining fat and plant material. Fordee uses it in baked goods — stir it into cookie batter, banana bread mix, or muffins as a direct replacement for some of the butter or fat. The sludge adds a mild cannabis flavour. Store it in the fridge in an airtight container and use within 2 weeks.
Dosage Notes
This Magical Butter Machine coconut oil recipe uses 20 grams of decarbed cannabis in 500 ml of oil. If the strain is approximately 18% THC, the batch contains approximately 3,600 mg of raw THC — though actual extraction efficiency is lower. A conservative estimate is 60–70% extraction efficiency, giving approximately 2,100–2,500 mg total in 500 ml. That works out to roughly 4–5 mg THC per ml of oil, or 20–25 mg per teaspoon. Always start with a small amount (¼ tsp) to test the potency of your specific batch before eating a full serving.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use coconut oil that is solid from the fridge?
You can, but it is easier to pour liquid coconut oil into the MB2e. Leave your coconut oil at room temperature for 30–60 minutes before starting this cannabis infused coconut oil Magical Butter Machine run — it will soften and become pourable. Solid oil can also be gently melted in a microwave (10-second bursts) before pouring.
Do I need to use lecithin in this cannabis coconut oil with lecithin recipe?
Lecithin is optional but recommended. Cannabis coconut oil with lecithin produces edibles with better, more consistent effects because lecithin helps emulsify the oil into other ingredients and may increase how efficiently your body absorbs the THC. Without lecithin, the oil still works well — some people simply prefer the cleaner flavour without it.
Is 160°F the right temperature for coconut oil?
Yes. Infused coconut oil 160 degrees Fahrenheit is the correct setting for oil-based infusions in the Magical Butter Machine. At this temperature, THC is extracted efficiently without significant degradation. Going above 180°F can start to degrade cannabinoids and terpenes. The MB2e oil setting automatically targets infused coconut oil 160 degrees for the full cycle.
