Together these ingredients allow us to create RSO Gummies that deliver wellness benefits while delighting our taste buds. Let’s get ready to bring these components together in the next step.
Tools and Equipment
To create perfect RSO gummies we need the right Tools and Equipment. Each item plays a vital role in ensuring consistent texture and potency in every gummy.
Mixing Bowls
We recommend using medium to large mixing bowls made from glass or heat-resistant plastic. These bowls allow us to combine ingredients thoroughly without spilling or contamination.
- Glass or BPA-free plastic
- At least one large bowl for combining gelatin and liquids
- An additional smaller bowl for preparing RSO separately
Saucepan
A good-quality Saucepan with a thick bottom is essential. It provides even heat distribution, preventing scorching when melting gelatin or heating juices.
- Medium size (2-3 quarts)
- Heavy-bottomed for steady heat control
- Non-stick or stainless steel preferred
Whisk
A sturdy Whisk helps us blend ingredients smoothly, breaking up lumps and creating a uniform mixture.
- Medium-sized whisk with silicone or metal wires
- Comfortable grip for sustained mixing
Measuring Spoons and Cups
Accurate measuring is crucial for balancing RSO dosage and gummy consistency. We use precise Measuring Spoons and Cups for both dry and liquid ingredients.
| Tool Type | Usage |
|---|---|
| Measuring cups | Liquids like juice, water, lemon juice |
| Measuring spoons | Small quantities such as gelatin, citric acid, sweeteners, and RSO |
Silicone Gummy Mold
A silicone mold forms the shape and size of our gummies while allowing easy removal after setting.
- Flexible food-grade silicone
- Mold cavities sized between 1/2 to 1 inch for bite-sized gummies
- Multiple cavities for batch preparation
Dropper or Spoon for Filling Molds
To fill molds with the gummy mixture we use either a dropper or a small spoon depending on control and precision needed.
- Dropper for precise dosage and less mess
- Small silicone or metal spoon for thicker mixtures
Each of these tools enhances our process for making delicious, potent RSO gummies with ease and precision.
Preparation
To craft perfect RSO gummies, precise preparation is essential. Let’s begin by carefully preparing the gelatin mixture and accurately measuring the Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) for consistent potency.
Preparing the Gelatin Mixture
- Combine liquid ingredients: In a medium saucepan, pour 1 cup of your chosen fruit juice or flavored liquid. For a tangy twist, add 1 teaspoon of citric acid or freshly squeezed lemon juice.
- Sprinkle gelatin or vegan alternative: Gradually sprinkle 3 tablespoons of gelatin powder over the juice. Allow it to bloom for 5 minutes without stirring. This step ensures smooth, lump-free gummies.
- Gently heat and stir: Place the saucepan over low heat. Stir slowly with a whisk until the gelatin completely dissolves and forms a clear, smooth mixture. Avoid boiling to preserve flavor and potency.
- Sweeten the mixture (optional): If desired, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of your preferred sweetener such as honey, agave, or sugar. Stir until fully incorporated.
| Ingredient | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Fruit juice or flavored liquid | 1 cup | Choose natural, unsweetened juices |
| Gelatin powder or vegan alternative | 3 tablespoons | Ensure even blooming for smooth results |
| Citric acid or lemon juice | 1 teaspoon | Enhances flavor and preserves texture |
| Sweetener (optional) | 2-3 tablespoons | Adjust to taste |
Measuring the RSO
The potency of your RSO gummies depends on precise measurement:
- Use a calibrated scale or measuring spoon designed for RSO to ensure dosing accuracy.
- Measure between 0.25 to 0.5 grams of RSO depending on the desired strength per batch. Remember, uniform distribution across all gummies is crucial.
- Dilute the RSO if necessary by mixing it with a small amount of the warmed gelatin mixture before combining fully. This step prevents uneven pockets of oil and guarantees consistent potency in every gummy.
“Consistency is key — carefully measuring and blending your RSO with the gelatin base ensures each gummy delivers the wellness benefits you expect.”
Following these steps will prepare us well for the next phase of pouring and setting our RSO gummies with confidence in both texture and strength.
Instructions
Follow these clear and precise steps to create perfectly textured and potent RSO gummies. Each phase of the process ensures the ideal blend of flavor, texture, and strength.
Heating the Liquid Base
- Pour fruit juice or flavoring into a medium saucepan.
- Add water to the juice using the exact measurements from the ingredients section.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir gently using a whisk to combine liquids evenly.
- Heat the mixture until it is warm but not boiling (around 110°F / 43°C is ideal).
Tip: Use a kitchen thermometer for precise temperature control.
Incorporating the Gelatin
- Slowly sprinkle the gelatin (or vegan alternative) over the warm liquid.
- Allow the gelatin to bloom for 2-3 minutes without stirring.
- After blooming, whisk the mixture continuously until the gelatin fully dissolves.
- Ensure the mixture is smooth with no lumps for perfect gummy texture.
- If using optional sweeteners, add now and whisk until fully dissolved.
Adding RSO and Flavorings
- Remove the saucepan from heat carefully.
- Measure your RSO precisely using a calibrated scale to maintain potency.
- Dilute the RSO if needed in a small amount of warm liquid for easier mixing.
- Stir the RSO gently but thoroughly into the gelatin base.
- Add optional citric acid or lemon juice to balance acidity and enhance flavor.
- Mix until the entire blend is smooth and uniform in color and texture.
| Step | Important Notes |
|---|---|
| RSO Measurement | Use a calibrated scale for accuracy |
| RSO Dilution | Warm liquid avoids clumps |
| Flavor Adjustments | Citrus enhances taste without overpowering |
Pouring the Mixture into Molds
- Use a dropper or spoon to carefully fill silicone gummy molds.
- Work quickly to avoid gelatin setting before all molds are filled.
- Tap molds gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
- Place filled molds in the refrigerator.
- Allow gummies to set for at least 2-3 hours or until firm.
- Once set, pop gummies from molds and store in an airtight container.
Pro Tip: Store gummies in the fridge to maintain freshness and potency over time.
By following these steps precisely, we ensure our RSO gummies have an ideal chewy texture, balanced flavor, and consistent therapeutic strength.
Directions for Setting and Storage
Proper setting and storage are crucial to preserving the potency and texture of our RSO gummies. Let’s walk through the essential steps to achieve perfect results and lasting freshness.
Refrigeration Time
To ensure our RSO gummies set firmly with the ideal chewy texture, refrigerate them for at least 2 hours. This cold environment allows the gelatin or vegan alternative to fully solidify, locking in both flavor and therapeutic strength.
| Step | Detail |
|---|---|
| Temperature | 35–40°F (2–4°C) refrigerator |
| Minimum Time | 2 hours |
| Recommended Time | 3 hours or overnight for firmer gummies |
“Patience during refrigeration guarantees gummies that hold shape well and deliver consistent doses with every bite.”
Removing Gummies from Molds
Once fully set, gently remove the gummies to avoid damaging their shape.
- Slightly flex the silicone mold to loosen the edges.
- Carefully push each gummy out from the backside.
- If gummies stick, briefly warm the mold with your hands to soften gelatin adhesion.
Tip: Use a small offset spatula or butter knife to ease gummy release without tearing.
Storing Gummies for Maximum Freshness
Keep our RSO gummies potent and fresh by storing them properly:
- Use an airtight container to prevent moisture absorption and flavor loss.
- Store the container in a cool, dark place or refrigerate below 70°F (21°C).
- Avoid heat and sunlight exposure as both degrade RSO’s active compounds.
| Storage Condition | Details |
|---|---|
| Container Type | Airtight, non-reactive (glass/plastic) |
| Ideal Temperature | 35–70°F (2–21°C) |
| Light Exposure | Store away from direct sunlight |
| Shelf Life | Up to 2 weeks refrigerated; up to 1 week at room temperature |
Remember: Proper storage helps maintain the balance of flavor, texture, and cannabinoid efficacy in every gummy.
