Dosing: how many grams, how many mg?

For 12 servings of approx. 10 mg (120 mg total), you need approx. 0.87 g of 22% flower in cannabis butter, or 0.75 g in coconut oil. The calculation accounts for decarboxylation and infusion losses; the percentage is a calculator input, not a substitute for laboratory analysis.

Approx. 138 mg in butter, 160 mg in coconut oil and 176 mg in MCT oil. These are estimates for 1 g at 22%, not measured values.

For 120 mg total in butter: approx. 1.07 g at 18% or 0.77 g at 25%. A higher percentage means less flower is needed.

mg per serving = grams of flower × percentage × 10 × carrier factor ÷ number of servings. The carrier factor includes decarboxylation and infusion losses (butter 0.625, coconut oil 0.725, MCT oil 0.8). The app calculator handles this automatically.

Cannabinoids are fat-soluble. Butter, coconut oil and MCT oil are suitable carriers. Actual yield also depends on the method and ingredients; the app uses estimated factors. Lecithin is not a carrier on its own — it stabilises the mixture.

Activating THCA requires heat (decarboxylation). Raw flower mainly contains the acid form; pre-infused ingredients may already be activated. See the app instructions for temperature and time.

Where consumption is legal: start low, for example approx. 2.5–5 mg, and do not redose too soon. Wait at least 2 hours; effects may take longer to appear. Follow local public-health guidance. Edibles have delayed and longer-lasting effects. Ages 18+ or the higher local legal minimum only; not individual medical advice.

Actual content depends on the variety, measurement, heat and preparation. We give estimates rather than theoretical maximums — only laboratory analysis can establish an exact value.
