Infused pre-rolls, often referred to as “infused joints” or “infused blunts,” are cannabis pre-rolls that have been enhanced with an additional layer of concentrated cannabis oil or hash. The process of infusing pre-rolls typically involves the following steps: Prepare the Cannabis Flower: Start by selecting high-quality cannabis flower that will serve as the base for the pre-roll. This flower is usually ground or broken down into smaller pieces, ensuring an even distribution of the infused material. Prepare the Concentrate: The concentrate used for infusion can vary and may include cannabis oil, distillate, wax, shatter, or hash. The concentrate should be decarboxylated if necessary (heated to activate the cannabinoids) and mixed with a carrier oil or solvent, such as propylene glycol (PG) or vegetable glycerin (VG), to make it easier to apply to the flower. Apply the Infused Material: The prepared concentrate is applied to the ground cannabis flower. This can be done in various ways, including brushing, spraying, or dipping the flower in the concentrate mixture. The goal is to evenly coat the flower without saturating it to the point of making it difficult to roll. Roll the Pre-Roll: After applying the infused material, roll the pre-roll as you would a regular joint or blunt. The goal is to evenly distribute the infused concentrate within the pre-roll. Some manufacturers use machinery to ensure consistency. Dry and Cure: Once the infused pre-rolls are rolled, they may go through a drying and curing process to allow the infused material to meld with the cannabis flower and ensure a more consistent burn. This step can take several days or weeks, depending on the manufacturer’s process. Packaging: Infused pre-rolls are typically individually packaged to maintain freshness and prevent the infused material from leaking. It’s important to note that the potency of infused pre-rolls can vary significantly depending on factors like the strain of cannabis used, the type and amount of concentrate added, and the size of the pre-roll. Consumers should check the packaging or label for information on potency and dosage to ensure they are aware of what they are consuming. Infused pre-rolls are popular for their convenience and potential for a more potent and flavorful experience compared to traditional pre-rolls. However, they are generally recommended for more experienced cannabis users due to their higher potency, so new or infrequent users should exercise caution and start with lower-dose options.
