Coconut oil is not just a cooking ingredient; it offers numerous health benefits, including:

Contains Healthy Fatty Acids: Coconut oil is rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which may boost metabolism and promote fat burning.
May Boost Heart Health: Some studies suggest that coconut oil can improve cholesterol levels and support heart health.
Antimicrobial Properties: The lauric acid in coconut oil has been shown to have antimicrobial effects, potentially aiding in the prevention of infections.
Supports Skin and Hair Health: Coconut oil is widely used in skincare and haircare products for its moisturizing properties.
Aids in Weight Loss: Incorporating coconut oil into your diet may help with weight management due to its satiating properties.

To create your herb-infused coconut oil, gather the following ingredients:

Coconut Oil: 2-5 cups of refined coconut oil (unrefined can be used for a stronger coconut flavor)
Decarboxylated Botanicals: 14-28g per cup of oil
Magical Sunflower Lecithin: 1 tablespoon per cup of oil (optional, but enhances infusion)

Prepare Your Ingredients: Ensure your coconut oil is in a liquid state. If it's solid, gently heat it until it melts. Avoid using cold, firm coconut oil, as it may not infuse properly.

Combine in the Magical Butter Machine: Add the coconut oil, decarboxylated botanicals, and sunflower lecithin into the Magical Butter Machine. Secure the lid tightly.

Set the Temperature and Time: Set the machine to 160°F and select the 2-hour infusion cycle. This will allow the botanicals to release their properties into the oil effectively.

Strain the Oil: Once the cycle is complete, unplug the machine. Use a Purify Filter bag to strain the oil into a bowl or measuring cup, squeezing gently to extract all the infused oil.

Store Your Infused Oil: Pour the infused coconut oil into a storage container and keep it in a cool, dark place. It can be used for cooking, baking, or topical applications.

Choose the Right Type: Unrefined coconut oil has a strong coconut flavor, while refined coconut oil has a neutral taste. Choose based on your preference for flavor in your recipes.
Adjust Botanical Weight: Feel free to adjust the amount of botanicals according to your taste and potency preferences.
Avoid Common Mistakes: Do not use margarine or water in your infusion process, as this can affect the quality of the final product.
