Today I will be conducting an experiment to examine the effects of 3 grams of already vaped bud in a firecracker sandwich. This high-ish dose is due to my equally high tolerance.
Two slices of white bread were toasted at toasting temperature for toasting time. To each slice there was added a heaping helping of generic chocolate hazelnut spread (college kids make do). The avb was spread over two slices and those slices were combined to make a sandwich. This was then wrapped in foil and baked at 180c for 8 minutes. I am aware that you do not necessarily have to heat abv to have it work, but my thinking is that the chocolate would melt slightly into the avb and encourage solubility.
Finally, the sandwich was eaten over the course of 15 minutes, requiring 500ml of water to wash down. A timer was started at the point of last swallow and I will update hourly with results.
I am happy that you’re willing to do this for science. I’m happy for you. I’m excited to hear the results. I hope you’re having a great time.
That said, this looks fucking disgusting and I’d never do it lmao

You can rinse it (like rice) depending on how coarse it was grinded. Takes off the worst of the taste.
Does it taste how it smells?
Yes. And you farts and burps will smell the same too. BELIEVE ME. I didn't smoke but passing gass in my room and it was rank like I just hotbox my room.
Yeh the smells foul I couldn't put myself through it 😂
I once did 5g fresh flower in a firecracker (long story, I made a bet that involved someone petting a wasp, they provided proof 🤷). So disgusting. So so so disgusting. I also used graham crackers instead of bread so the layer of bud was thick AF. As it hit it just kept getting stronger and stronger than after 30 min I passed out for 12 hours.
I'm pretty sure eating 5 g of fresh bud wouldn't do anything. That's why you need to decarb it
Yes, I cooked it in the oven like how firecrackers are made 👍 THC decarbs straight into the PB. That's the whole point of using pb, I don't know why anyone would do that with abv, you don't have to decarb it. Firecrackers are just an old school quick edible that you can make without much effort.
I meant fresh as in it wasnt already vaped and had a bunch of THC removed. 🤷
They're super sketchy too cuz I remember the first time I made them I must have done something wrong with the temp or baked it too long either way didn't hit at all. Knowing this my homie and I ramped up the amount for one last try. It did indeed become the last try but not because it didn't work we thought we were gonna have a coronary lol
Thank you for the education my brother
You don't reheat it, you just put the abv right on the peanut butter and eat. It's a super fast way to make an edible and use up your abv. The peanut butter is to mask the taste and texture of the abv, and if you use enough pb you don't taste the abv at all.
So I can grind my herb and sprinkle that onto a PB sammich and I’m set. Not roasting the herbs nothing, just grind and go?
You gotta bake it to decarb it or nothing will happen. Or use AVB
Down voted for a question, tough crowd 🙄
Only if it's been decarbed first by heating it up.
Firecrackers are typically heated.
Yeah, but I don't think you're really heating it to the temperature and duration you need to decarb weed.
I could be wrong. It happens a lot
It's kinda a tricky balance but that is indeed the goal. I stopped making them after a bad experience in school. First time didn't work at all due to it being really hard to properly estimate the time needed in the oven since it's not like making something with clear steps and temps like coconut oil/butter bricks. Second time worked way too well and was not at all prepared due to how the first time went. Still one of the strongest edible induced highs I've ever had, I stick to shit I can dose pretty accurately now. For abv nothing beats a brown dragon, like a green dragon but the abv makes it brown. Gotta do the quick wash method, freezing each component separate for a day or two and then mixing really hard for like 10 mins before straining. Doesn't taste bad at all, especially compared to long soak methods that makes it gag worthy
Yea that's the point. I first heard of them 20+ years ago and it's just a nice way to get a quick edible without needing to make an entire batch of cannabutter. DHV were in their infancy, I hit a volcano for the first time a couple years later.
I personally learned about fire crackers from r/vaporents being made with abv and that doesn't need heated.
So at this point in time there are either 2 versions of "fire crackers" or the term has just evolved.
I recommend ritz or cheese it crackers, even saltines would be better than Graham crackers.
Bud has a pungent, earthy, not awesome taste in my opinion, and those flavors mix/dissappear much better in salty/savory foods than sweet.
+1 for ritz
😂
NGL I kind of enjoy the crunch it gives the peanut butter... I hate the grit stuck in my teeth after but for me, eating is actually enjoyable. Similar to eating popcorn or steak, just cause I need a toothpick afterwords doesn't stop me from the initial enjoyment!
I know OP and I are in the minority but just wanted them to know they aren't alone 👊
It tastes pretty disgusting too
I use a ton pb and all I ever taste is pb.
I am currently saving my decarb from dry her vaping, just as an absolute backup because my area thinks weed is the devil. It will literally be the last thing I consume if I really want to get high, because honestly the idea of eating decarb sounds so gross.
use it to infuse oil or butter for edibles, don't have to eat it :)
I regularly mix a teaspoon of avb with a greek yogurt with any fruit flavor. This way it's okay taste wise. Normally on a sunday morning when I have nothing planned for the day as it zones me out heavily for hours
Absolutely. I'd keep it to myself as well lmao. This isnt a flex.
This would give me crazy weed farts
I'm burping avb
The next #2 trip will have a unique smell.
I made that mistake in my work bathroom
Thankfully I worked at a restaurant back in those days
The dishwasher
I cook mine in coconut oil then get a big cookie kit and use coconut oil instead of butter. I ate that shit for 3 days.
You ate shit for 3 days?
Dude in college I used to do this and I would get terrible weed burps in class it was so so bad
As someone who has partake in fire crackers, many many times, I can confirm they give you a crazy weed fart
Lmao perfect
You can tell its like that because of the way it is.
1 hour update -
Whats up herb heros a giddy feeling fills me as I anticipate the onset of this experiment. I am definetly feeling something. Not quite a stoning of the head as a warmth in the body. Could still be placebo. Friends is extremely funny (PIVOT!!! PIVOTTTT!!!) 6/10 stoning. Increasing in intensity
2 hour update - I've got a nice little buzz going on here. I'm laughing at a selection of random things. There seems to be a mental clarity not usually present with edibles. It almost feels like an opioid buzz, with characteristic body warmth and flushing of the face. I must resist smoking the green I do have in the name of scientific integrity, as I believe the come up on this will be long. 6.5/10 stoning
3 hour update - There is definetly something to this. The normally trivial task of cooking pasta turned out to be quite interesting. First, I forgot to set a timer and panicked when I realised, only to remember that you can simply taste food to see if it's cooked. This was much to my amusement. I feel "silly" for want of a better word. Actually no I like that word. Went down to get my laundry and got halfway down the footpath before I realised I'd left my detergent pods. Had to contain my laughter due to sane, sober individuals present. 7.5/10 stoning - and I don't think it's done ascending
4 hour update - I am up there now woah mama. It's not the sort of overwhelming trippy feeling you get with something like thc distillate edibles, it's a relaxation and clouding of the mind. Everything is super funny and I feel nice and warm inside with a small amount of cotton mouth and a mild stoning of the eyebrows. Just because of how long it's been I think it should be leveled off but who knows really. I now have to cycle to pick up some xtc so we will see how that goes. I'm not worried about my safety but I don't think I would be worried about much of anything right now. 8/10 stoning
5 hour update - This will be the final update. I'm still a little high but not that much. The cycle was really great fun, I felt so fast and smooth and quite warm which has been oddly enough a theme with this edible. The peak effects only lasted from 2 and a half hours up until this 5th hour. As always, reality lies somewhere in the middle with claims about avb. It probably won't send you to orbit like some people get, but it also doesn't just make you sleepy. Considering the amount of material I had to consume, I think I would have gotten more value out of it smoking it in spliffs mixed with cbd like I have been doing. If you want to eat your avb I strongly recommend you make some sort of oil or butter infusion like others have mentioned here. Eating avb straight is not something I do often for a reason - it is inconsistent and though the taste can be masked with your fat medium, at the end of the day you are still chowing down on a bunch of dry weed.
Thanks for the support of this experiment, I made this post as I could not find an entirely clear "trip report" of avb firecrackers and I hope this helps future herbonauts in their endeavours.
I’ve done this before with avb thinking it was gonna be some weak ass shit and got completely fucked off.
Godspeed.
Same I loaded about 9 grams into a brownie pan and ruined edibles for myself and brother for a while
Must be working if it made Friends funny
Lol truth
Was thinking this EXACT thing!
Hell yeah, cruise on bröther
Id suspect that giddy turns to sleepy coming pretty quick here, with all that CBN working its way through ya 😅 wasn't black but some was real dark... should be a fun ride right up until sleepy time 🫠
The pivot part was my favorite part of all of Friends. So funny.
When Ross can't get his leather pants back on while on a date... And he smacks himself in the face after putting lotion all over his legs. Shits fucking hilarious.
I've always wondered about this. Thank you sir lab rat.
I love weed science, you sir are a pioneer!
I love that you knew you had to go pick up drugs today and you were like "let's try edibles I've never tried before" LOL absolute madman
I've tried eating avb before and I knew that it's often a mild experience. Even still theres no such thing as too high
I feel so invested in this journey.
godspeed my zooted friend
4/10 Sat down to eat and read your story after some daboronis. Peace be with you.
did you take adderall too? 🤣
i am horrified yet intrigued 😭 how did it taste lmao
I’ve also done this and it just made me really tired and groggy. It doesn’t matter how much AVB I eat, it’s just the same tired groggy feeling.
It’s the high CBD and CBN content in the AVB
I add decarbed bud to mine to even it out. I keep bud I don’t wanna smoke to decarb it. Half half for me. 1g total sends me and I don’t get sleepy.
I'm excited to hear your results and am laughing heartily at "Two slices of white bread were toasted at toasting temperature for toasting time." Plus Matt LeBlanc?!~ I love that guys characters!
Prose like that makes me think he was a lil high already! :)
Waiting for this update. Thank you for your experiment.
More like “Weeding” for this update!! Hehe
Stoners, man...
Damn I think I’m not getting all the weed out of my weed because my shit is not this brown. Also I haven’t been saving it. I still won’t, but I haven’t been too.
Seriously though, I have a Crafty+ and my AVB has more gold color to it, should I keep going? It tastes fucking rough after about 4 hits
Nah, I think anything after that just fucks up your throat for very little THC. OP is definitely either burning longer or perhaps it was either darker or lower quality to begin with. I have a jar of probably an ounce of light brown AVB right now but honestly I think I’m just going to trash it. I’d rather smoke fresh and it’s legal here.
It's really up to you. You can definitely extract more and get it darker if you want, but just because you can doesn't mean you should or have to. Many say that you aren't getting much more by toasting it darker and that it can be bad for your lungs trying to extract the very final bits of vapor from your bowl.
But I was raised to minimize waste, and my habit since I started vaping is to get every little bit out of what I put in. So I basically vape until vapor production is super minimal (usually 10-15 minutes in arizer air max), and then save my super dark abv. I have probably 80 grams of abv in a ziploc, no idea what I will do with it lol.
Mine is also a golden color. I prefer it that way and don’t feel bad about loading another bowl because I plan to make edibles with my abv so I’ll get more out of it too. I’m not making it a pb sandwich tho, no offense OP 😅
I eat 3 grams of abv once a week. I dump it in yogurt and don't mind the taste but the texture is horrid. I've noticed it takes longer to kick in but also last much longer than any other edible I take, even rso. Of all the edible buzzes, abv is my favorite.
Bah dude, just chug it down with peanut butter, thats what I do. And another method I tried recently, put your desired amount in a glass with olive oil like 30-40ml and that mixture into a water bath for like 30 minutes or longer at ~90°c, and then drink that. You mentioned solubility, with heat it's even better. They say it's mostly CBD with some rest THC depending on how you vape. I fucking love CBD, will try a high CBD strain next time. You're mellow for hours with a good high depending on rest THC.
I do a shot of hot cocoa with the avb mixed in, quick and painless. Sip of cold milk afterwards to wash out the parts.
40-60 mins to kick in, farts smell bob marley the next day
Bob gnarly I bet
Man your poops are gonna smell for a bit
Yeah definitely not something to eat if you have to be in the office the next day as the bathroom will smell like a dispensary.
RemindME! 1 day "look at this"
For people worried about the taste, peanut butter mixed with some chocolate syrup does a great job of hiding most of it. There will still be an after taste, but it won't be nearly as bad. I usually throw that on a graham cracker.
I've tried firecrackers just one time, i could feel it in my stomach the whole time. Never again lol
The first time I tried it was the first time I greened out.
A younger me saved all his ABV one time and didn’t weigh it before eating. From this photo it’s reminding me why I woke up the next morning more blitzed than when I went to sleep. First abv experience was one for the books
I was scrolling through the comments looking for further updates until I realised this is happening now haha very exciting!
A friend of mine baked cookies out of his vaped bud but was disappointed by the effect, probably massively underdosed. Will share the outcome of this experiment with him (and hopefully he will share his updated cookies with me in return) :)
Further updates will be edited in the original comment. Glad to be of help!
I used to do this all the time and would call it space toast and then would say Space Toast: Toast to Toast and then would eat it.
Already Veen Baped 🫠
Already baped vud 🤠
Do you man but it’s 2025 you don’t have to do the shit we did in the 2000s
Lol that was the good ol day. Even then I didn't vape my herb this hard. I remember it being tan not black.
Have 14 grams and have been thinking about doing this exact thing. Good luck 🍀
I look forward to your updates and results 👍🏻
Better off just making some shitty hash with it. That's what I did after trying firecrackers a couple of times and getting nothing but a disgusting taste in my mouth. Maybe if you have a super low tolerance, especially to edibles, but for me it was a waste of time
Godspeed my AVB king
See you monday!
I did a very similar thing a few years back and thought my tolerance would make it chill shit had me and my ex so god damn gone but it took forever to finally peak. Good luck on your travels never underestimate the avb haven’t really done that much avb since cause it was life changing 😂🫡
Really not that bad of flavor if you know how to mask it. Dark chocolate is a great way to lose the overwhelming toasted herb flavor.
Crunchy PB. Good for getting shrooms down, too.
You gave some to Joey right?
How'd it taste?
Not as bad as it looks. There was so much chocolate spread it was decent just a difficult thing to swallow
The taste really isn't as terrible as one might expect. It tastes like herbs, mostly.
So.... how's it going? I have about 150g of avb, which I normally cook in a crock pot with a few sticks of butter and water for 24 hrs, but I've never eaten it straight before.
It's AVB so leave out the water. It's a completely unnecessary step.
I've been following these instructions for years... never had an issue.
https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/abv-butter-making-the-most-of-your-vape-waste.94902/
Basically, you're washing it at the same time as extracting the 'noids. I bet that water you chuck out at the end is foul!
The note about making the house smell made me laugh. I'd had my AVB drying on the boiler overnight, went out the next morning, came home later, opened the front door...and actually took a step backwards because of the reek.
"Experiment." Bros just too proud to admit that he's out of weed and this was his last resort
I was just thinking to myself glad I'm not weed poor anymore lol AVB should not even need to be an acronym
Enjoy your burnt weed sandwich. It looks like someone spit out chewing tobacco and used it as a spread
I don't understand. You don't make butter or something? You just spread the herb? Is it edible? Sorry for the stupid questions but I'm curious
I could make butter, but this was a spur of the moment decision and I didn't have all the materials neccesary. I put it in my mouth and swallowed it so I guess it's edible? I could do that with rocks though so I guess it's inconclusive.
Nah, you're not stupid. . . they're eating raw "caramelized" distasteful abv😂 make cannabutter
Try a little on a PB&J. Very edible.
I used to make avb milkshakes in college. Helped mitigate that texture/taste lol
Some of my worst stomach aches have been from consuming AVB, and nowhere near 3gs
Just so you know, eating raw flower is not great for your gut, THC and your cannabinoids are fat (and alcohol) soluble. Since vaped weed is already decarbed, just grind it as much as you can and throw it in a bowl or oven safe mug in enough vegetable oil (or any other oil) to completely submerge it, and bake at 160F - 200F for 2 to 3 hours. Then strain all the solids out a few times. Will have all the effects, and no indigestible plant matter, and can be used in any recipe calling for whatever oil you used.
Or, if it doesn’t upset your stomach, enjoy your very high fiber edible.
You've inspired me. I'm gonna go do the same! 😂
Best of luck with that trash sandwich
For those that want this, just more edible, i recommended extracting with oil, i.e. heat up avb with oil/butter (coconut oil is very nice) at low temp then sift through coffee filter or similar. You can put it in anything like peanutt butter, a milkshake/smoothie or anything really.
That's also my go to. It really is horrible but gets the job done
We are in the presence of a scientist and a scholar, great leaps and bounds have been made today
Bros gonna be too faded to remember to update
Imagine the farts that will be dealt from this.
I've done firecrackers with good tasting hazelnut spread and peanut butter mixed on a graham cracker. Never again. Almost threw up like 8 times trying to get it down and in the end was only able to finish half. From then on I just made a large batch of edibles the regular way every time.
I used to do something similar with graham crackers. I don't think heat is required, but I would let them sit for 20-30 minutes prior to consumption, since I think it does help to let the chemicals in the herb form solution with the oils in the spread. My experience suggested they were wildly uneven -- batches of similar size with similar amounts of ABV material could produce any result from a mild background kinda high to hours as a proper space cadet.
Definitely make sure you don't need to drive anywhere while your figuring out how your recipe hits you. I think the variability in mine had to do with the material itself -- sometimes I would really flog a trench of weed on my Magic Flight Launch Box, while other times I would go for a refill after just a little color change in the stuff. Eventually I switched back to mostly waterpipes, but the dry herb vape plus eating my ABV was an economical approach back when medical sales were new to my state and prices were way up there.
Bro, look up infused milk, hot chocolate, and thank me later
Be honest, how hard was that to eat? I've done this before on Crackers with peanut butter.. saltines too. It was very hard to eat.
I like my dabs, edibles don't hit me the same. I will say some rso oil gets me lit tho
Edit: oh shit, it's avb? I used weed but I carbonated it in the oven. I made butter with avb and trim, that shit is body high ASF. Have a nice nap
Gross
Wtf no man
"Toasting at toasting temperature for toasting time" is the best methods description I have ever seen in a scientific paper.
That one had me laughing but I fuckin died after “requiring 500ml of water to wash down”.
Having done a lot of firecrackers in college with fresh bud, they work like a charm but always taste horrible.
Preferred method was: grind 1g of flower, spread peanut butter on 2 gram crackers, sprinkle the full g onto said pb, sandwich together, wrap in tinfoil, toss into oven at 250 for 45 mins, let cool and eat as fast as possible.
Once I drove to see Pacific Rim in Dbox on some and it was a fun experience.
God, I can't believe people still do this. Enjoy but, there's new techniques now bud.
The hero we don’t deserve!
liquidfied first
Just make cannabutter ffs🤮
Throwback to high school when we would eat abv when we were dry. Shit tastes disgusting lol
I'm a big fan of using a mortar and pestle to grid it to a powder before consuming or making capsules.
Awaiting your results. I'll conduct the same experiment in a few hours. After I get my brakes done. Put the rotors on wrong or something if I do it before.
Try s’mores next time mate, much more pleasing to the palate
I'm assuming you're Major Tom
The great thing about a DHV is that you're not done with it after you vape it
I have a couple of Dynavap Bs because my tolerance level is still low enough for that (two because I lost one, and then retrieved it) but I will heat one and eat it, and vape the other three or four times before I eat that one, too.
I remember me and my cousin had our homie over and he wanted the strongest firecracker we could give him, so we loaded it with about 1 grams of flower and a half g of keif. Bro almost had a full blown panic / anxiety attack he was so high😭😭
Bros gonna have nuclear weed shit tomorrow
What is a firecracker?
So how was it?
Just makes you sleepy
I’d rather be stone cold sober.
Bro one gram sends me to the moon questioning if im still alive, ts crazy
Just make a concentrated oil infusion. You'll need a smaller amount to blast the hell off
I make butter with my avb and then strain it through cheesecloth once I'm done steeping. Works great and gives a long buzz
PB and marshmallow fluff is my go to for abv sammies. Godspeed OP!
AVB vaped primarily at what temp? I'm curious to try this out as dry herb vape is my primary intake source and I just throw it out.
I'm not sure unfortunetly due to it being from a dynavap. It's just vaped until it tastes like it's about to combust which you get a feel for using the dynavap. Definetly start saving your avb though because even if you don't smoke it, it makes for fantastic spliff filler which is what I mainly use it for.
Oh yeah I used it for spliff sometimes too. Though now I rather use mullein flowers as such. Thanks for answer :)
😱
As long as it's still brown, caramelised not carbonised, it'll be usable. Mine comes out somewhere between light golden brown and...er...brown brown, depending on which stem or WPA I've used to vape it.
I wash mine in a cafetiere (a French press); let it soak for 30 minutes, then change the water, and repeat until the water stays clear. Dry it out thoroughly (I lay mine out on top of the boiler overnight), and then infuse it into coconut oil with a teaspoon of lecithin powder added.
This video will help. Note that the weed must be absolutely dry if you intend to use lecithin.
So based on my observations for my setup it would be about 190 C tops. What exactly does this washing does to it? Thanks for reply :)
I did this exact thing but my tolerance was not high
Did you get the explosive diarrhea?
Bro I used to get high off .1g avb that is 0.1g avb and the idea of 30x that does is sending me
You know their serious when you measure water out
Pic 2 almost made me barf thinking about when I used to do this
Good luck!
Try it again without putting it in foil and baking it and see if it’s more or less strong
Back when I had a vape, I’d save my avb bud up for like a week. I’d make an edible and eat it right before I clocked into work. It was a fun way to test potency and experiment on myself while getting paid. I was so stoned one time that I went to the bathroom to pee and it took me 30 seconds to understand how to put my belt back on.
I did 1gram AVB and it got me absolutely fried, good luck and have fun.
How was that texture buddy
WHY DO PEOPLE DO THIS I DID IT AND I THREW UPPPPPPPP it tastes so fucking bad
I've heard people eat and consume spent vaped bud, but I didn't believe it.
I keep seeing the term firecracker thrown around on this posts comments. What are you guys referring to?
Just do a smoothie. Strawberry yogurt + milk + avb and blend it up! I use a stick blender.
Good for you. Gross af.
I just sous vide it with coconut oil at 80c for 2 hours then strain the herb out. Much better than eating it like that.
New to vaping, i have like 7g more or less of AVB is that enough to make a decent batch of brownies?
Already vaped been
*bud
Ohhhhhh is that what it stands for? That’s a new one to me but makes sense!!
So gross
that looks delicious
I looked at this and wanted to gag on sight. The dichotomy of stoners is wild sometimes
i think he's the only one in the whole comments that found it appetizing lol
Slight work.
[deleted]
Same reason I snort lines of flour
Nose muffins!!
[deleted]
Here's a study done on the percentage of cannibanoids remaining in varying samples of avb (https://share.google/nZLyF9r7ToXCthXJf)
I'm not the one eating abv....
Google "decarb weed"
[deleted]
There is still THC in the abv. In fact, it tends to work better for me than any edible I've purchased.
