They maintain heat and distribute it preventing hot spots. That is why using heavy bottomed pans is so important. You want to keep stirring it intermittently while you're doing other stuff before you combine the sugar. So after you decarb your concentrate if you need to, and mix with the VG lecithin and alcohol, you want to keep it warm, but not too warm. Have a good 6/6 edifrients!Įdit: Some tips about timing and steps and especially pouring, also a question for someone about gelatin: I'm making a batch later tonight so I'll link an Imgur album later. These gummies are very firm in the fridge, but will soften to the perfect consistency at room temp, and they don't melt at higher temps. Remove from mold, set on a plate covered in parchment uncovered in the fridge till ready to use. Then put them uncovered in molds in fridge till firm. Pour into molds that are on a cookie sheet, and let rest at room temp for about 30 mns. (One neat idea you can try is using a cupcake pan or other pan with separate compartments, before you add flavor and color, pour the gummy mixture and add different color or flavor to each one!) Then take this mixture and combine with your concentrate suspension and mix well. It should stir in easily without clumps.Īdd your citric acid, flavor and color. If the sugar is too hot, the gelatin will crystalize. Take the sugar off the heat, let it cool to 200 or so. Wou want the soft ball stage, around 250f. If you want firmer gummies, cook for 10-15mns. If you want softer gummies, keep it at a rolling boil for 5 mns. Now this is where you can decide the consistency you want. Heat your sugar/water/glucose syrup till boiling. Higher heat speeds up the process but don't exceed 215f or so.ĭecarb your concentrate(I use 2 grams of concentrate /recipe, I shoot for about 1500-2000mgs), then add 1TBSP VG, 1tsp liquid lecithin, and a splash of everclear to create a suspension.
I take it out and massage it every half hour until it's ready. Edit: I have found this process sometimes takes 2 hours or more! But smooth clear gelatin with no foam or bubbles is key. Melt in the bag for a good 30 mins, or until the gelatin is liquid and clear.
Seal the bag and place in a pot of water set on the stove on low. Add 1/2c water to gelatin in a ziplock bag. Ingredients for 1 batch that makes 40 gummies:ĤTBSP 280-300 bloom gelatin (use 1/2c water to bloom)ģ/4c sugar (you can use 1/2c or 1c as well, I use more sugar if my concentrate is weird tasting)ġ/4c glucose syrup (like corn syrup but much thicker)ġTBSP Sorbitol (for springiness, a food additive used as a sugar replacement)įirst, bloom the gelatin. ( I don't use oil in this recipe, but if you want to try oil, add more gelatin and use less than 1/4c) So here goes: Now, this recipe calls for ingredients you'll have to find online, and this is not a beginner recipe. So I researched, and have since made hundreds of batches. I wanted them shelf stable at room temp or higher, for when you're at your concert, and the gummy you stashed between your boobs isn't a melted glob. I was never satisfied with the consistency/stickiness, and they took over a week to cure in the fridge, and would melt some if left out of the fridge. When I started, I used the ole Jello/gelatin/water/concentrate method.

It took a lot of trial and error, and a lot of research. Hey all! I've been making gummies for a couple years now, and have finally got my recipe down.
