Infused Pre-Rolls: Understanding the Concept and Learning How to Make Them

Infused Pre-Rolls


What’s up, family! If you are a regular marijuana user, you are probably familiar with pre-rolls. But, did you know there are such things as infused pre-rolls? I’m not trying to brag, but this method to consume cannabis is a serious fire.

Infused Pre Roll vs ordinary Pre Roll

An infused pre-roll will upgrade your regular pre-roll to a whole new level by adding concentrates or other ingredients to the mix. Anything containing THC, such as oil, hash, kief, or smokable cannabis flowers, is fair game. As a result, this pre-roll is more impactful and provides a one-of-a-kind experience.

On the other hand, a standard pre-roll is simply a joint that has already been rolled and is ready to be smoked. Typically, it is wrapped up from powdered flower. It saves time and effort compared to rolling your own joint, making it a more convenient method to enjoy marijuana.

Are Infused Pre-Rolls Better Than Regular Pre-Rolls?

It depends on what you’re looking for in a smoking experience. If you want a more potent hit, an infused pre-roll is definitely the way to go. But if you prefer a more traditional smoking experience, a regular pre-roll might be a better choice for you.

Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Infused Pre-Rolls:

Follow these instructions to make your own infused pre-rolled pre rolls.

1. Use the grinder to shred your bud into smaller pieces.

When doing so, depending on the concentrate you plan to use, you can warm up thicker distillates in natural sunlight to make them more manageable when applying them to the joint.

2. Make a filter or support system.

Filters are essential for a pleasant smoking experience since they catch stray flower particles and reduce lip burning when the joint is nearly ashless. The filter is made from a sheet of filter paper folded into a zigzag shape. When you reach the midpoint, roll the remaining paper around the zigzag section to keep it in place. Keep in mind that if you fold it too tightly, the joint won’t pull, but if you fold it too loosely, the pieces will separate.

3. Prepare your paper.

To use, prepare a filter by rolling a piece of paper around a pen, pencil, or chopstick, then sealing it with your saliva. Chopsticks create a more tapered cone shape, making loading easier, whereas pens and pencils produce more of a tube shape, making loading less efficient.

4. Roll up the paper and insert the filter.

When the joint is rolled and sealed, the filter should be put into the smoking end and pressed down until a seal is formed.

5. Choose your preferred flower and concentrate.

The next step is to pack the joint with your preferred strain of ground cannabis and concentrate. Even though kief is the most common kind of concentrate used in DIY pre-rolls, other options like wax, dabs, and hash are all easily accessible and may be incorporated into the roll with little effort.

6. Stuff the joint.

Fold the paper in half and hold the two halves together. Put your cannabis powder on the fold, and then use the crease to pack the powder into your joint. Sprinkle the concentration in the joint a little at a time and tamp the bud and concentrate down with a pen or pencil every so often to get a good, tight pack.

Outside infusion of a pre-roll is most effective with softer, more malleable concentrates like wax or sauce because their gooey nature allows you to evenly cover or spiral the surface of the joint, and can even act as glue for more concentrate, such as kief, creating something akin to a moon rock joint.

7. Let’s have a puff on the joint.

After everything is finished and sealed, you may finally light up and enjoy your handiwork the same way you would any other joint. Infused pre-rolls are quite potent, so it’s probably preferable to share them with friends. However, if you’re just trying to relax, you can always take a few puffs whenever you need to and then leave the joint out for others to enjoy.
