You will want to use decarboxylated (decarbed) herb for your infused butter in order to make the active
ingredients available.
It is a complicated sounding name for a simple process. The basic idea is to heat the herb to 240
(115
oven with a good quality thermometer. The MagiCook Pro Infuser has a decarb function that works well
for small amounts. The infuser will heat the herb at the correct temperature and the blades do not spin
during the decarb process.
If you want to do a large amount at one time, then you will want to use the oven method. Make sure that
your oven is operating at the correct temperature. Place your herb on a baking pan covered in parchment
paper in an even layer, then tightly cover with aluminum foil and place on the center rack.
You do not need to use a grinder. Just crumble your herb up by hand into roughly even-sized pieces.
DECARB FUNCTION
As discussed in the preparation section, you will need to decarb all of your herb before making any type
of infusion.
To decarb a small amount-14 grams (1/2 oz or less) in the infuser spread an even layer of no more than
1/2 inch high of herb on the bottom. Press “Choose” until “Decarb” is flashing and then set time and
temperature as described in Basic Operation.
You can easily find dozens of decarb procedures but most generally agree that your temperature should
range between 107 225 and 115 240 . Times should be between 30&45 minutes. Another point
of general agreement is that decarbing at the lower end of the temperature range preserves the herb
flavor while decarbing at the higher end will minimize the flavor.
You will want to experiment with times and temperature that works best for you. If you need to decarb
a large amount of herb at one time use the oven method described earlier but make sure your oven
settings are matching the correct temperatures. You can easily ruin a batch of herb by overheating it.
Please note that the mixing blades do not operate in the decarb setting. It is a heating only operation.

OIL FUNCTION
For many, oil infusions and specifically coconut oil infusions, are becoming the daily go-to infusion. A
coconut oil infusion is very versatile. Oils work well in any food recipe and as rub-in topical ointments.
Coconut oil is a great oil to use because it has a very high saturated fat content (90% compared with 60%
you can easily make potent mixtures or use much less herb to make your infusions.
Lecithin is key ingredient in infused coconut oil. Lecithin helps with absorption of herb oil into your
intestinal walls and is used as an emulsifier. The small particles in your herb oil are absorbed more easily,
DIRECTIONS:
• For a 1/2 batch-14 grams (1/2 oz) decarbed herb with 470-590ml (2-2 1/2 cups) coconut oil.
• For a Whole batch-28 grams (1oz) decarbed herb with 950-1180ml (4-5 cups) coconut oil.
• Use 15 ml (1 tablespoon) lecithin for both sizes.
The infuser is preset to run at 70 160 for one hour. When the temperature reaches 53 128 the
mixing blades will turn on for 20 second intervals as the temperature continues to 70 160 and then
to the end of the cycle. You may also set your own time and temperature. When the cycle has finished,
follow the directions in the STRAINING section of this manual.
If you are not experienced with using coconut oil infusions, use very small doses at first and wait a long
time (5hours) to really judge potency. Coconut oil with lecithin can produce very potent infusions. You
can gradually work your way up to the right levels for you. It is easy to overdo it and it is an unpleasant
experience. In general, the directions we provide here are a good starting point but experimenting a bit
with time, temperature , and potency will give you the best results in the long run.

BUTTERFUNCTION
Butter infused with herb (infused butter) is one of the mainstays in making edibles and is still probably the
most popular infused product. As with coconut oil, it is the saturated fat in butter that make it all works. If
you like butter and are used to using it in your recipes, infused butter will work well for you.
DIRECTIONS:
• For a 1/2 batch use 14 grams (1/2 oz) decarbed herb with 470-590ml (2-2 1/2 cups) unsalted butter.
• For a whole batch use 28 grams (1oz) decarbed herb with 950-1180ml (4-5 cups) unsalted butter.
• Use 15 ml (1 tablespoon) sunflower lecithin with both batch sizes.
If you use the preset ”butter” option on the infuser it will run for 2 hours at 70 160 . The blades will
cycle on for 20 second intervals starting when the temperature reaches 53 (128 . You can also set
your own custom time and temperature.
When the cycle has finished, follow the directions in the STRAINING section of this manual.
Many people prefer using clarified butter or ghee instead of regular unsalted butter. Be sure to try this if
you are not satisfied with results using butter.
If you are new to edibles start with really small doses and wait a long time (5 hours) and gradually work
up to a comfortable level. It is easy to overdo it with edibles and it is not a pleasant experience.
Experimentation with all the variable is good to try. Our directions are a good starting point but you may
create a better taste or potency by trying new settings on time, temperature, or amount of herb added.

TINCTURE FUNCTION
Tinctures are alcohol-extracted herbal products. The herb liquid tincture contains high levels of active
ingredients that have been leached out into the alcohol to form a liquid.
Tinctures are usually taken by placing a few drops of the highly concentrated liquid under the user’s
tongue. They have become a popular alternative to smoking and are widely used by medical users who
do not wish to smoke the product.
The active ingredients in tinctures break down quickly if exposed to heat or light. Therefore, tinctures
should be kept in airtight, dark containers, and stored away from heat and light. Unlike other herbal pro
ducts, tinctures have no telltale odor.
GLYCERIN VS. ALCOHOL TINCTURES
ingredients so that you can create a potent tincture. The ethanol content in alcohol increases the speed
However, not everyone can or wants to consume alcohol. Glycerin is a great alternative for those who
want to avoid alcohol. Glycerin is in many food products and is completely safe to consume. It can be
made from plant or animal matter and many prefer plant-based glycerin. Glycerin is often considered a
sweetener and many enjoy a slightly sweet taste for their tincture.
The downside to glycerin-based tinctures is in its potency. Glycerin can only retain about 1/3 of the active
ingredients compared to alcohol. Glycerin tinctures also have a shorter shelf life. Vegetable glycerin can
be stored for a year while alcohol tinctures can last up to 4 years.

8 // OPTIM U M M AGICOOK PRO
TINCTURE FUNCTION
DO NOT have any open flame around the prep materials, the infuser unit, or the finished products if you
are making your tincture with ethanol alcohol. If you have any doubt at all about heating alcohol, use
a non-heat method for making your tincture. There are numerous methods and recipes posted on the
internet. Only use this function if you have done it before and know the risks involved. Please read the
disclaimer in the safety section page marked #3. We also do not recommend using alcohol and refer
people to use Glycerin because of the higher risk involved.
Glycerin is considered safe to heat but it is still in the alcohol family. Do not take any unnecessary
chances with open flames around Glycerin either.
DIRECTIONS:
For a 1/2 batch-14grams (1/2 oz) decarbed herb with 470-590ml (2-2 1/2) Cups of vegetable glycerin or
95% ethanol alcohol (150-190 proof).
For a whole batch-28 grams (1oz) decarbed herb with 950-1180ml (4-5 cups) of vegetable glycerin or 95%
ethanol alcohol.
The preset tincture function will run for 4 hours at 70 160 . The blades will cycle on for 20 second
intervals starting when the temperature reaches 53 128 . You can also set your own custom time and
temperature.
When the cycle has finished , follow the directions in the STRAINING section of this manual.
SAFETY!! HEATING ALCOHOL RELEASES HIGHLY FLAMMABLE FUMES.

GUMMIES
Once you have made a tincture you can use it to make herbal gummies. You do not do this in the infuser
but on your stovetop. Here are the steps.
Ingredients:
• 118 ml (1/2 cup) Coconut Oil
• 118 ml (1/2 cup) Water
• 1 168grams (6oz) Jello pack
• 28grams (1oz) gelatin
• 15-17.5ml (1/2 to 1 Tbsp) of herbal tincture (As always you will want to experiment with the amount of
herbal product that works for you)
• Silicone molds
Steps:
• Set you stovetop burner to medium
• Put the coconut oil and water in a pot on the burner
• Stir vigorously until the water and oil are combined
• Add tincture and keep stirring
• Slowly pour the Jello into the mix and stir while gradually raising the heat to medium high.
• When the Jello is completely mixed in, start to slowly mix in the gelatin while stirring continuously.
• At this point, the mix should be fairly thick and viscous
• Carefully pour your mix into the silicone molds
• Put the molds in the refrigerator for 20 mins.
• If you like, powder your gummies with the sugar type of your choice.

COCOA FUNCTION
Infused cocoa is always delicious and is great way to infuse various herbs. The herbs are infused into
cocoa butter, which has a high fat content.
The basic idea is to use the infuser to make infused cocoa butter and then make the finished product in a
double boiler. The infuser settings for this is 11/2 hours at 80 180 .
DIRECTIONS:
STUFF YOU NEED:
• Herbal Infuser
• Double Boiler pan
• Silicone Molds or Flat sheet with Wax Paper
• 28grams (1oz) herb
• 473ml (2 cups) melted cocoa butter (food grade)
• 10ml (2 tsps) lecithin (sunflower preferred)
• 473 ml (2 cups) cocoa powder
• 237 ml (1 cup) honey
• 10ml (2 tsps) real vanilla extract
• 2.5ml (1/2) tsp salt
• Toasted nuts (optional)
• Orange or mint extract (optional)
Of course, there are many variations and additions you could make to the ingredients above, but this is a
good start.
STEPS:
• Place your decarbed herb, melted cocoa butter (it is easy to melt it in the double boiler) and lecithin
in the infuser. Press the “chocolate” button and let run for the full 1 1/2 hours. You can also manually
set your own time and temperature.
• Strain this infusion as described in the Straining and Storage section of this manual.
• Place the infusion, honey, vanilla, and salt in the double boiler and mix well while heating
• Slowly add the cocoa powder stirring continuously until fully mixed in. The mixture should have a
“glossy” look to it
• Avoid getting any water into the mix! Do not cover the double boiler or condensation may get into
the mix.
• At this point, you can mix in any extras such as nuts and extracts. Use a small amount of extract
(2.5ml ; 1/2 tsp)
• You can now pour into molds or flat onto a sheet.
• It is best to pour out when the mix is still fairly warm.
• Place either molds or sheet into the refrigerator for 1/2 hour or more. Now you can use your
chocolate in any recipes you love or by itself.

OPTIM U M M A GICOOK PRO// 11
STRAINING AND STORAGE
You will need to strain all of your preparations after they have been mixed and heated in the infuser
(except for decarbed herb)
CAUTION! The unit and contents will be HOT after the infusion has finished. Use any normal precautions
when handling hot items. We recommend using silicone gloves, or just allowing things to cool before
handling.
• Set up a layer of cheesecloth across a metal sieve that drains into suitable container (preferably
glass)
• Slowly pour the infused liquids through the cheesecloth.
• You can use a soft spatula to gently squeeze excess liquid.
• Once most of the liquid is drained through the cheesecloth, gather the cheesecloth up and gently
squeeze out remaining liquid.
• There are numerous storage options ranging from one large glass bowl to small jars or pour in
molds such as the one included with your infuser.
• You will generally want to store your product in the refrigerator
• Tinctures should be stored in dark bottles in cool place.
CLEANING
DO NOT submerge any part of the infuser in water. Especially when plugged into your electricity outlets.
DO NOT put any part of the infuser in the dishwasher. Hand clean and use clean function only.
Rinse out the chamber and then fill halfway between the MIN & MAX lines with water. Add a bit of dish
detergent and replace head unit. You can use the clean function and the blades will come on every 15
seconds to agitate. After cleaning, wipe with a towel by hand to dry the units.
