Some of us older, or more sick people may find the previous recipe a little scary seeing as how your heating up a highly flammable substance in your kitchen. Good news/bad news.
Good news: This can be done safer!
Bad news: it's a lot slower.
Here's the safer recipe!

Directions:
1. Finely grind plant material(coffee grinder if you have it) and spread evenly onto baking pan. This loosens the
plant materials cell-walls allowing for a fast full extraction.
2. Heat pan at 150*f for 15 minutes in oven. This also helps to remove excess water which degrades the Grain Alcohols
ability to absorb the goodies from your plant material. This also decarboxlyzes the THCA to THC.
NOTE: If your using a smaller recipe you won't need to cook it as long. What you should do is check on it frequently,
as soon as it's nice and dry(not burnt) remove it from the oven. You don't want to burn your plant material!
3. Remove pan from oven(use oven mitts don't burn your hands and then hunt me down).
4. Pour your alcohol into your big metal/glass bowl. The reason why we don't want to use cheap plastic is because
the alcohol can/will eat up most kinds of plastics. You don't want to ingest polymers, trust me.
5. Use a dry funnel to pour your finely chopped plant material into your big wide mouthed mason jar, or bottle of grain alcohol.
6. Look to see where your pile of plant material falls in your jar or bottle. Visualize where the plant material would be in the
jar/bottle if you had twice as much plant material. Use the same funnel and fill the jar/bottle back up with your alcohol to the
level of that which you've visualized.
7. Allow this bottle to sit at room temperature with no light exposure for three to four weeks. Shaking every day three times for
about 5 minutes each(the more the merrier).
8. After your 3-4 weeks of waiting with anticipation. You can FINALLY strain your jar/bottle into your big metal/glass bowl. Be
sure to juice every last drop you can!
9. Place your now strained green-dragon into an air-tight bottle or jar away from light exposure and high heat.
