The dose, worked

0.5 tbsp infused coconut oil × 9.87 mg per tbsp = 4.9 mg THC (theoretical) ÷ 1 portions = 4.93 mg per glass.

Theoretical maximum: it assumes complete decarboxylation (THCA × 0.877) and that every milligram ends up in the food. Real yield is usually lower, which is why you start with one portion and wait. Re-run the maths for your flower →

Dosing notes

Cold liquid sets coconut oil into flecks. Melt it and add it to the running blender so it emulsifies.

Why half a tablespoon?

A full tablespoon of the coconut oil on this site is about 10 mg. Half keeps a single glass near 5 mg.
