5 Best DIY CBD Isolate Projects for 2020

Top 5 DIY CBD Isolate Projects for 2020

The Best DIY CBD Projects for 2020

When it comes to CBD, the first question on everyone’s mind is simple – “How do you use CBD Isolate?”

No matter how much CBD you’re taking, being stuck at home for the majority of 2020 is rough on all of us. Once you run through Netflix and Hulu – you know that it’s time to find a new hobby or at least something to do to keep yourself busy. Luckily for you, there are more ways to use CBD isolate than you probably thought. The list of things you can make with pure CBD isolate powder is an endless one. From homemade lotions to post-workout recovery smoothies, CBD isolate is the most versatile CBD product on the market. You’d probably ask, does CBD isolate have THC? CBD isolate, as the name suggests, is the isolated and purest form of cannabidiol, containing no THC.

Before we get into the fun stuff, we need to go over a couple of things you’ll need to know before getting started. The first thing you need to know is that most projects that use CBD isolate include the Double Boiling Method. We’ll also give a quick breakdown of isolate definition and a few other relevant hemp terms.

 

Terms to Know:

Isolate Definition: Isolate or isolates are the purest versions of any plant compound. All cannabinoids can be extracted and refined to a point of total purity. CBG Isolate, CBN isolate, and CBD isolate are all the purest available versions of these cannabinoids.  

Double Boiling Method: The Double Boiling Method is a heat control technique traditionally utilized in cooking that allows you to infuse any hemp isolate with a carrier oil of your choice.

Carrier Oil: Carrier oils are food-derived oils that act as a delivery system that enhances your body’s ability to absorb cannabinoids and other plant compounds.

The Double Boiling Method

The double boiling method is a simple cooking technique used to cook and blend foods at low and indirect heat. The double boiling method works by taking a large pot filled about 1/4 full with water and then placing a smaller pot that sits above the water inside. The smaller pot is used to heat whatever you’re cooking without overheating it.  In this case, we are heating up a carrier oil to blend our CBD isolate with. The double boiling method is simple, nnce the water begins to boil, add your MCT oil and CBD isolate to the pot, and stir until the isolate is no longer visible. This infused carrier oil is your ready to use CBD isolate.

CBD Carrier Oils

Carrier oils help deliver CBD to the body in a way that is easier to absorb or help infuse foods with CBD. There are a few different carrier oils to choose from, each with their own benefits. The most popular carrier oil for CBD is coconut MCT oil.

  • MCT Oil
  • Avocado Oil
  • Olive Oil
  • Almond Oil
  • Hemp Oil
  • Flaxseed Oil

Double Boiling Directions

  1. Fill larger pot 1/4 – 1/2 full with water
  2. Place on stove and bring to a light boil/simmer
  3. Place smaller pot inside larger pot – sitting a couple of inches above water (You don’t want direct heat here)
  4. Pour 1-2 ounces of carrier oil into the smaller pot
  5. Pour desired amount of CBD isolate powder into carrier out (typically 1-2 grams)
  6. Stir until liquid is clear (5-10 minutes)
  7. Take off stove

Now that we’ve covered the basics, we’ll dive into our favorite ways to use CBD isolate with these five fun DIY CBD projects!

5 Best DIY CBD Projects

Blend your own Honey

Who doesn’t love honey? With all the awesome health benefits of organic raw unfiltered honey, it seems like the perfect partner for CBD. Infusing two of nature’s greatest healers into one tasty treat – what more could you want? If you’re reading this you probably have a pretty good idea of what CBD does. But did you know honey is naturally loaded with a ton of benefits as well?

Honey naturally provides:

  • Anti-Oxidant boost
  • Phytonutrients
  • Anti-Infection properties
  • Reduces Allergies
  • Digestive aide
  • Sore throat relief

Using the double boiling method we’ll infuse CBD isolate and coconut MCT oil. Once we’ve infused the MCT oil we’ll begin the process of infusing CBD honey.

What you’ll need:

  • 1 gram of CBD Isolate
  • MCT Coconut Oil (about a teaspoon)
  • Local-Raw-Unfiltered Honey
  • Spices and Scents (Preference: Add lavender or Cinnamon, or others as desired)

How to Make CBD Honey:

  1. Infuse CBD isolate with coconut MCT oil
  2. Mix spices or herbs with CBD infused MCT oil
  3. Pour MCT oil into dish and clean top pot
  4. Reset double boiler
  5. Once water is simmering use a thermometer to track temperature (honey should be mixed below 95 degrees to avoid losing potency)
  6. Pour honey and CBD infused MCT oil into the top pot
  7. Stir honey and CBD oil for 20-30 minutes (Mix well)
  8. Remove pot and pour honey into a container of your choice (store in fridge to keep longer)

It is important to not use high temperatures as not to lose the potency of either your CBD or your honey. We recommend local-raw-unfiltered honey because of its wide range of health benefits including allergy reduction and healing properties.

Directions:

  1. Use the double boiling method to infuse CBD isolate with MCT coconut oil. (Mix well for five minutes)
  2. Add honey, lemon juice, cinnamon, and other natural boosts – stir for five minutes
  3. Divide cough drop mix into ice trays (1/4-1/2 full)
