Abstract

The present invention provides self-contained hot and/or cold edible product making apparatus of household, commercial or industrial use having a body comprising one or a plurality of chambers that may be used for receiving, processing or mixing the ingredients for the purpose of creating a cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis component enhanced hot or cold edible product and the method of making such products.

Description

Description of the embodiment of invention Cannabis and/or its components may be used to enhance edible products to put to use the effects of these components.
Cannabis enhanced edible products are a special case of edible products that require exact preparation methods and apparatus to be employed due to the active components found in cannabis that may be regulated by law.
The existing cannabis enhanced edible products are very limited in number and have cannabis components varying in concentration and are presently made mostly by applying heath and/or cold to a mixture consisting of non-cannabis ingredients and cannabis that may be dosed into the mix using conventional baking, brewing or chilling apparatus and methods.
Dosing of cannabis is mostly manual and not accurate resulting in products that have great variations in cannabis components in the finished products.
The object of this invention is to present a method and apparatus that consistently and reliably makes a greater variety of cannabis enhanced hot or cold edible products that follow a strict recipe with a set and known concentration of cannabis and/or cannabis components in the finished product that conform to limits that may be set by law. The invention makes possible the use of cannabis extracts and/or cannabis component to be incorporated in cold or hot edible products.
In a preferred embodiment and method to make cannabis enhanced edible products as presented in Figure 1, the invention comprises a housing (1) that may have built-in means for controlled cooling and/or heating of the interior (2) of a processing or mixing chamber (3) and may have a dosing means (4) for the cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis component (12) that may be connected to the said chamber (3). The means (4) may be placed on top of, bottom or any side of the chamber (3). The means (2) may be placed on one side or multiple sides of the chamber (3).
The chamber (3) may open to outside through a access means to allow placing, processing or mixing components (5) and may have a means to remove the processed or mixed components after the process is done (6). Also may or may not connect to means to store the processed or mixed components for other processing or consumption (7) mainly in the form of containers, bowls, cups, trays.
The means (4) to dose the cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis component (12) may open to outside to allow placement of said (12) through a means (8). Once these placed inside, means (4) will provide the dose necessary for making the cannabis enhanced mix. Also the means (4) may have means to promote or enhance the extraction of active components of (12) preferably in the form of a separate controlled enhancing device (9).
The mixing chamber (3) may or may not include a mixing mechanism (10) for the purpose of providing a better mixing of all the edible products components.
In another embodiment the mixing mechanism (10) may be removable from the mixing chamber (3).
After the mixing of components in the chamber (3) the means (2) will heat or cool the mixture and may make a hot or cold edible cannabis enhanced product.
The means (4) may exactly dose the active components from the cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis components (12) placed directly inside means (4) or may use predetermined amounts of a known concentration of (12) placed in a one time or multi use dosing means container (11) that may be placed in the means (4). The means (11) may be totally or partially porous and/or perforated or made in such a way to allow the cannabis components (12) to be enhanced into the product mix in chamber (3). The dosing means container (11) may be in the form of one or more capsule, pill, bag, envelope, vial, bottle, jar, package. The dosing means container (11) may contain along cannabis components (12) other ingredients as required by the recipe for the product.
In a particular case Figure 1 may represent a cannabis enhanced ice cream or frozen drink apparatus where the housing (1) contains the cooling means (2) that cool the inside of the processing chamber (3) to a temperature that is favourable to make ice cream or frozen drinks.
The non-cannabis ingredients of the ice cream or frozen drinks are placed in chamber (3) through the means (5) and are removed after processing through product exit means (6).
The cannabis ingredients of the ice cream or frozen drink are dosed to strict specifications by the dosing means (4). The cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis component (12) may be placed directly into dosing means (4) and the means (4) provides the required amount of (12) or in another embodiment the required amount of (12) is predetermined in a dosing means container, capsule, pill or bag (11) placed into the dosing means (4) through an access means (8). The dosing means container (11) may contain along cannabis components (12) other ingredients as required by the recipe for the product. The dosing means container, capsule or bag (11) may be of multiple use and made in a way and out of a material to make infusion and/or reuse possible and could be prior art. The dosing means (4) may have a means to extract or enhance the extraction of cannabis components from (12) in the form a means (9) that in most cases may be a controlled heating means.
2 The ingredients may be mixed together by the mixing means (10) and when the ice cream or frozen drink is ready may be stored or consumed from a storing means (7) in the form of container, bowl, cup, cone or tray. These storing means (7) may be of edible material.
The same method and apparatus from Figure 1 can be used to make cannabis enhanced bread, sweet bread or brownies in a particular embodiment of invention where the means (2) provide heating of the ingredients in the chamber (3). In another embodiment of the invention the means (2) provide the baking of the bread, sweet bread or brownies inside the chamber (3) and the means of placing the components (5) may be used to remove the finished product having a size to satisfy this operation.
The method and apparatus in Figure 1 may be used to make cannabis enhanced butter, or cookies or chocolate, or fudge, or candies or other enhanced edible products.
In another preferred embodiment as presented in Figure 2, it is presented another configuration of the invention and another method to make hot or cold cannabis enhanced edible products.
The apparatus comprises a housing (1) that may incorporate the heating and/or cooling means (2) and may have at least one processing chamber for non-cannabis components
(3) and a dosing means (4) for the cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis component (12).
The non-cannabis components may be introduced into the chamber (3) through a means (5) that in one particular case may have a means to dose the non-cannabis ingredients and may be of a size as to allow storage of said components before processing.
The said non-cannabis ingredients may be heated or cooled according to the recipe and may use a means (8) to pass through cannabis dosing means (4) that contains the cannabis and/or cannabis extract and/or cannabis component (12). The dosing means (4) may contain a cannabis component enhancing means (9) that in some embodiments through heating may enhance the cannabis components. In a particular case the cannabis components (12) are predetermined in quantity and concentration inside a dosing means container (11) that may be for example a container, capsule, pill, envelope or bag that may be of single use or multiple uses. The means (11) may be totally or partially porous and/or perforated or made in such a way to allow the cannabis components (12) to become mixed with the other components passing through the means (4). The dosing means container (11) may contain along cannabis components (12) other ingredients as required by the recipe for the product.
The cannabis enhanced edible product may be delivered through a controlled finished product exit means (6) into a container for storage (7).

This method and apparatus as described in Figure 2 may be used to produce cannabis enhanced café, tea, hot chocolate or other enhanced drinks or other enhanced edible products.
The invention described therein is not limited only to cannabis to enhance edible products and may use any other component that requires similar dosing and preparation method to create enhanced edible products.
