Hello, Mason Pot Family! Today, we're relaxing in the Mason Pot kitchen, and I'm excited to share some quick, yet essential tips directly from our manual that I haven't discussed much before. We're diving into the three different ways you can use the Mason Pot kit to infuse your creations. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned user, understanding these methods can enhance your infusion experience.
1. Oven Infusion
The oven method is our most talked-about technique, primarily because it's straightforward and efficient. Here’s how it works:
- Decarboxylation: First, you decarboxylate your herbs in the oven. This process activates the compounds in your herbs, making them ready for infusion.
- Infusion: After decarboxylation, you use the same oven setting to infuse the herbs into your desired medium (like oil or butter) using the Mason Pot.
This method is ideal for those who prefer a set-it-and-forget -it approach, as the oven does most of the work for you.
2. Crock Pot Infusion
Next up is the crock pot method, which is almost as simple as the oven but with a slight twist:
- Setup: Fill your crock pot with water and place your Mason Pot jars filled with herbs and medium inside.
- Infusion: Set your crock pot on low and let the slow and steady heat infuse the herbs into the medium.
This method is perfect for those who might want to infuse while they're away at work or busy with other tasks, as the crock pot maintains a consistent temperature without needing supervision.
3. Stovetop Infusion
Lastly, we have the stovetop method, which offers the most control:
- Setup: Place your Mason Pot jar in a pot on the stove and fill the pot with water up to about halfway up the sides of the jar.
- Temperature Control: Set your burner to low or medium-low. Unlike the crock pot, you'll need to keep an eye on this setup, especially if you're using a gas stove, as the temperature can change quickly.
This method is great for those who want to closely monitor their infusion process and make adjustments on the fly. It's particularly useful if you need to raise or lower the temperature quickly.
