Cannabinoids infused coffee beans and raw nuts
The present disclosure is directed to whole spectrum cannabinoids infused coffee beans or raw nuts and methods of producing the cannabinoids infused coffee beans or raw nuts. The coffee beans or raw nuts are infused in an overall two-step process, in which cannabinoids from a Cannabis species are first infused into coconut oil, which in turn is used to infuse coffee beans or raw nuts with cannabinoids to generate the cannabinoids infused coffee beans or raw nuts.
1. A method of making coffee beans or raw nuts infused with cannabis extract comprising:
(a) providing cannabis;
(b) freezing the cannabis to yield frozen cannabis;
(c) providing food grade oil at a temperature of 150° F.-200° F.;
(d) adding at least a portion of the frozen cannabis of (b) to the food grade oil of (c) to form a cannabis and food grade oil mixture;
(e) heating the cannabis and food grade oil mixture of (d) to a temperature of 150° F. 200° F. for 5-7 hours;
(f) freezing the cannabis and food grade oil mixture of (e) into a solid, frozen biomass of cannabis and food grade oil mixture;
(g) heating the solid, frozen biomass of cannabis and food grade oil mixture of (f) at a temperature of 150° F.-200° F. for 2-4 hours;
(h) straining the cannabis and food grade oil mixture of (g) to separate the food grade oil from the cannabis to yield a cannabis extract;
(i) heating the cannabis extract of (h) to a temperature of 250° F. to 300° F. for 3-6 hours;
(j) adding raw nuts or coffee beans to the cannabis extract of (i) to form a mixture of coffee beans or raw nuts with the cannabis extract;
(k) heating the mixture of coffee beans or raw nuts and cannabis extract of (j) to a temperature of 175° F. F for 5-6 hours;
(l) freezing the mixture of coffee beans or raw and cannabis extract (k) to form a solid, frozen mixture of coffee beans or raw nuts and cannabis extract;
(m) heating the solid, frozen mixture of coffee beans or raw nuts with cannabis extract of (l) to a temperature of 100° F.-150° F. to liquify the cannabis extract; and
(n) straining the coffee beans or raw nuts from the cannabis extract of (m) to yield cannabis extract infused coffee beans or raw nuts.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
(O) freezing the cannabis extract infused coffee beans or raw nuts of step (n).
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: repeating steps (e) and (f) one or more times before step (g).
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: repeating steps (k) and (l) one or more times before step (m).
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: repeating steps (e) and (f) one or more times before step (g); and
repeating steps (k) and (l) one or more times before step (m).
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the temperature of steps (C) and (E) are performed at 185° F.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cannabis provided in (A) is selected from the group consisting of Cannabis Sativa, Cannabis Indica, and Cannabis Ruderalis.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the food grade oil provided in (C) is selected from the group consisting of coconut oil, medium chain triglycerides oil, vegetable oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, grape seed oil, butter, shortening, margarine, lard, and a combination thereof.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the food grade oil provided in (C) is coconut oil.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the food grade oil provided in (C) is medium chain triglycerides oil.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the food grade oil provided in (C) is a mixture of coconut oil and medium chain triglycerides oil.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the food grade oil provided in (C) is a mixture of coconut oil and medium chain triglycerides oil at a ratio ranging from 75% coconut oil:25% medium chain triglycerides oil to 90% coconut oil: 10% medium chain triglycerides oil.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein coffee beans are added in (J).
14. The method of claim 1 , wherein coffee beans that have been degassed for at least two days following roasting of the coffee beans are added in (J).
15. The method of claim 1 , wherein raw nuts are added in (J).
16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cannabis and the food grade oil are provided at a ratio of 1 pound of cannabis to 2 gallons of food grade oil in (D).
17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cannabis and the food grade oil are provided at a ratio ranging from 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 75%, to 100% of 1 pound of cannabis to 2 gallons of food grade oil.
18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cannabis in (A) is buds of cannabis.
