Potency guide to weed ice cream

To accurately know the potency of your ice cream, you’ll need to accurately know the potency of your cannabis milk. We have a calculator here that will help you estimate how potent the ice cream you make is. But, it’s important to remember that if your calculation is off at the beginning, that error is going to be carried throughout.

Enter the amount of cannabis you are using to infuse butter, oil, milk, etc.

%

If your cannabis has a THC content of 25%, type 25

How much of the activated ingredient will you use in your infusion?

-
mg

This is the amount of mg of THC in the entire extract.

Enter the amount of infused tablespoons your recipe calls for (1 cup = 16 tablespoons)

serv

Enter the total number of pieces or portions your recipe will make (e.g., 12 brownies, 8 cookies)

-
THC mg per Serv

Decarboxylation doesn't have 100% efficiency and it typically 70-90%. This means about 10-30% of potential THC is lost. This is a rough estimate on your edible potency.
