Equipment

  • LĒVO II or LĒVO C machine
  • 1 g coarsely ground cannabis in 1-2 Power Pod(s) or a LĒVO C Jumbo Pod
  • 473-1006 ml coconut oil or MCT oil depending on which machine you’re using
  • 1-2 tbsp liquid sunflower lecithin

Instructions
 

  • First, you’ll need to decarb, or ‘activate’ your favorite strain. Once you’ve loosely filled your Power Pod (or two) or Jumbo Pod, with your coarsely ground herb, you’re good to go.  Note: Our recommended default setting for your LĒVO II’s Activate cycle is 240ºF/116ºC for 30 minutes. LĒVO C has one Activate mode. Run it once for a half-full pod and twice for a full ounce of cannabis. Now let’s move on to the infusion process:
  • Keep your herb in the Power Pod(s) or Jumbo Pod inside the reservoir.
  • Add up to 473 mL of coconut oil to your LĒVO II reservoir, or 946 mL to the LĒVO C basin. Ensure the cannabis flower is fully submerged by the oil.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of liquid lecithin to the reservoir to help bind the oil to water in your tea. Lecithin also increases the bioavailability of THC in your body, making the infusion feel more potent to some. Set your LĒVO to 71°C to 79°C and infuse for 2-5 hours. Use our time and temperature calculator to be precise when infusing other herbs and types of oil, honey, or butter. We also have a super-helpful, handy app!
  • When the infusion is finished and the coconut oil is still warm, dispense your infusion into an airtight container. We love mason jars. And with a bit of tape on the lid or a dry erase marker, you can name and date that particular infusion.
  • Make sure to use your Herb Press to get every last healthful drop out of your Pod(s).
  • You can keep your coconut infusion in the refrigerator. For maximum longevity, keep your infusions organized and accessible by pouring them into freezer-safe Herb Blocks.
  • Now you’ve got a super-special coconut oil infusion to add to your tea. Boil water on your stove top and then add either your favorite loose-leaf or bagged tea and steep to taste. Then once it’s poured into cups, you can add teaspoons (depending on the strength) of your infused coconut oil for those that would like to partake. We do recommend starting slow. If this round of tea is just for yourself, simply make a cup of tea as you normally would and add your desired amount of coconut oil. It will separate just a bit- as it is oil and water, but that’s okay and is completely normal.
