About a year ago, a comment thread popped up on my Instagram account that went a little like this:
“I love the Levo 2, but the capacity is way too small and my oil isn’t very strong.”
“Yeah, kind of in the same boat with the Nova. It’s amazing, and my oil is good, but it’s too small for what I want to do.”
“I have the exact opposite issue with the MB2. I have to make huge batches in there. So if I only have a little bit of weed, my oil is super weak. Plus it doesn’t decarb.”
“There’s just no perfect machine… yet. Hey Corinne, are they going to make a bigger Nova?”
At the time, I’d heard only rumors of the new and improved device that Ardent was developing. A top secret gadget; all I knew is that it was going to be bigger.
But what came in the mail last week was more than just a bigger, shinier version of the Nova. It’s called the Ardent FX and it’s a game-changing all in one cannabis infusion and baking device.
We’ve been calling it the Easy Baked Oven around here, and while it’s been fun to play with and joke around about, it’s also been an uplevel over every other cannabis kitchen device I’ve ever tested.
You can watch the unboxing and review below (and snag my CBG Olive Oil recipe) or read the post for more.
What does the Ardent FX do, exactly?
The Ardent FX is considered an “all in one portable cannabis kitchen”.
But what it really does is provide the perfect environment and temperature for decarboxylation of your cannabinoids and infusion into oil (you can also bake in it!).
If you’ve never heard about decarboxylation or know why it’s so important in crafting your homemade edibles and infusions, check out this post: Decarboxylating Cannabis to Activate THC and CBD
In order to make infusions and tinctures that contain THC, CBD or CBG, you need to first heat your plant material to a specific temperature for a certain amount of time. (This happens naturally when you smoke or vape, which is why you don’t need to decarb for inhalation methods).
When you’re making edibles and tinctures, you will only get about 20-30% of your cannabinoids, meaning weaker oil and wasted money. To get more of the cannabinoids from your cannabis, you need to decarboxylate.
Ardent did a lot of testing while developing the FX and the Nova and what they found was that our DIY decarboxylation methods were burning off a lot of cannabinoids
According to the lab results, popular methods like the oven, toaster oven and crock pot, could make us miss as much as 33% in converting THCa into THC, CBDa into CBD and CBGa into CBG.
If you decarboxylate an ounce of cannabis in the oven and 30% of your plant material is wasted, you can be losing as much as $150 dollars every time you make a batch of edibles (if you live in a place like DC where an ounce can cost up to $500 🤯).
If you skipped decarboxylation completely, and went straight to throwing your cannabis in oil to infuse it, you’re wasting at least twice that amount.
Investing in a decarboxylator that’s been lab tested and proven to fully activate your cannabis will definitely save you money in the long run.
Cash money aside, the FX is such a convenient way to decarb and infuse. With the push of a button you decarb. Add oil and another push and you’ve got infused oil. Then strain and toss everything but the base in the dishwasher and you’re done.
Let’s break that down.
How to use the Ardent FX (aka the Nova FX)
Step 1: Decarboxylation
The FX has different settings to decarboxylate CBD, CBG and THC. A1 will decarboxylate THC and CBG and A2 decarboxylates CBD.
This is going to be a very short section because all you do is select the mode you’d like to use by pressing the M button and then hitting power.
Once the decarboxylation process is done, the light will blink red telling you that it’s cooling down. Then it will turn green and your plant material will be fully decarbed.
Step 2: Infusing with the Ardent FX
After your cannabis is decarboxylated, let the device cool and pour in your favorite oil or butter. Hit the infuse button and come back an hour or two later to a perfectly infused oil. The infuse cycle runs as long as 3 hours, but you can turn the device off sooner than that.
A 3 hour cycle won’t ruin your oil, but lab reports show there’s no real difference in infusion rates after 1 hour, so you may as well save the energy and get to making some healthy edibles with your infusion.
Note: If you skip the step of decarb and try to just decarb your plant material in oil, testing shows that you’ll only get about 20-30% activation. Make sure you always decarb first to get the most out of your plant material.
Step 3: Strain and Bake
After you infuse your oil, you can strain it out (they’re going to have a custom strainer available soon, but for now, I just used a fine mesh colander).
Put the purple chamber in the dishwasher.
You’re done! Your oil is now ready to be made into infinite possibilities. You can make pain salve, cannabanana bread, or homemade weed lube. The sky is the limit (and depending on if you use THC, you just might reach it)
The Verdict
I only recommend and post things here that I use and that I love and this thing gets the Wake + Bake stamp of approval.
This is by FAR the easiest, cleanest, and most efficient decarb and infusion process out there.
I typically do a pros and cons list here, but the only con I can think of is that the cycle can be a little long (but that’s what it takes to get a full decarboxylation). I wasn’t paying that much attention, but I think it took almost 2 hours to run a cycle. So you have to account for that if you’re planning on whipping up some brownies the same day as making your oil.
I probably won’t be using any other device or method from here on out.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Ardent FX
When I asked the people of instagram to toss questions my way about the Ardent FX, most of the questions related to how they compared to the other devices on the market. So I’m going to cover all of that here. If you have other questions, just shoot them into the comments below or send me an email at [email protected] and we’ll add them here.
The FX vs. The Nova
I loved my Nova, and still think it’s a great budget option if you only need to decarboxylate and infuse small amounts at a time.
You can still decarboxylate up to 1 oz of flower or 5 oz of concentrates (compared to the FX's 4 oz flower capacity). And you can infuse small amounts in the Nova using the Infusion Sleeve or by using a small glass jar (a commenter below mentioned they found a pyrex jar with a pourable spout that fit perfectly… if you find something that works, add it to the comments!)
While the Nova isn't dishwasher safe, but it has a removable chamber that you can quickly wash. With very few moving parts, it's still very simple and convenient to clean.
The Nova decarbs and infuses small batches. The FX decarbs small to large batches, infuses, and bakes. The FX is also dishwasher friendly.
Nova vs. FX Cost
The Nova will run you about $130 less than the FX, so it’s a great budget option for small batches.
I used to decarb in my Nova and then infuse in my MB2 to do my larger batches, so if you’re planning on doing that, the FX is still a less expensive all-in-one option.
If budget is an issue and you only want to do small batches, the Nova is the best option on this list.
Because we have testing data on the decarb, we know that you’ll be getting a 97% decarb on your plant material, which is something that the MB2 doesn’t do at all. The Levo 2 does not provide data on their decarb feature, so we can’t tell you for certain.
The FX vs. The Levo 2
According to Wake + Bake readers, size does matter. And so does strength. And so does convenience.
With readers who have used the Levo 2, the feedback has been “It’s awesome. It’s beautiful. It's convenient.” But some also add, “the capacity is just too small.”
Some readers have commented about the lack of strength of their oil in the Levo 2 because even their largest herb pod doesn’t contain very much plant material (it can hold up to ½ cup).
Depending on the density of your plant material, if you were to fit 3.5 grams of 10% THC material in the device and infuse 1 cup of oil, your oil would come out at 7.5mg per teaspoon.
I used my Otto grinder to perfectly grind my herb before loading it in the pod to fit more in. Many readers have found other workarounds like this to get more potency in each cup.
Some run a couple of cycles with each pod. Some put more pods into the device for each cycle. With the Levo 2 if you want more potency, you'll likely have to MacGyver a way that works for you.
If you're microdosing, this wont matter much. But if you're cooking for others who have high tolerances or if you have a high tolerance, this may be more hassle than it's worth.
I would say that if you order the Levo 2, the Herb Press accessory is essential. While the Levo doesn't make the strongest oil per teaspoon, it does have the least amount of oil loss out of any gadget I ever tried when you use the Herb Press.
Usually you have to MacGyver something to squeeze out all of your oil (a french press – which makes coffee interesting the next day, pressing your cheesecloth bag with your knuckles until they're sore, I even once used a potato ricer in a pinch and that worked pretty well).
As for decarb, you can adjust the cycle to any temperature for any length of time, so it leaves it up to the user to try and get the decarb results they’re looking for.
This is awesome if you're doing a custom decarb to leave some raw cannabinoids in tact (which is what most cannabis clinicians are currently recommending) and that's what I use the Levo 2 for now.
There's one downside that may not apply to anyone but me, but I feel like I have to mention it here. There is a little piece that come along with the Levo 2. And if you use it, you can’t use the device. I lost it and had to wait for a week to get a replacement.
If you’re good at keeping things the size of a quarter from getting lost in your kitchen, that might work for you, but I’m a type A.5 personality (halfway between A and B) and my kitchen is B territory.
Levo 2 vs. Ardent FX Cost
The Levo 2 retails at $249 and the FX retails at $349.
But with the $30 off code (WAKEANDBAKE), that brings the FX down to $319.
You'll save about $70 on a Levo, so if you only want to do small batches, you'd be saving some money.
Verdict: If custom decarboxylation and infusion temperatures and the added drying feature are important, and if you typically microdose your cannabis anyway, the Levo 2 is the gadget for you.
Magical Butter vs. Ardent FX
The MB2 is one of the oldest cannabis infusion devices out there and it’s just that. An infusion device.
When I first started doing this, it was the only thing on the market and I thought it was really cool. As a matter of fact, I wrote a rave review about it and was using it to infuse large batches until I got the FX.
The company has decided that instead of innovating and creating something new with better functions, they’d just rebrand the same ole MB2 and call it a day.
The MB2 has a minimum volume to operate (2 cups of oil) so it's really only for large batches. You can't put it in the dishwasher which means a little more elbow grease on infusion days.
To be fair, they do offer some accessories that are pretty cool. They have a decarb box that makes decarboxylating in the oven easier and the strainer bags included can also be used to make small batches of bubble hash.
While it was once my go to infusion method, I think they got outpaced by the other three options now available.
Magical Butter vs Ardent FX Cost
The MB2 is the most affordable device on the list at $189. So if you're just looking for a large capacity infuser (like if you already have a Nova or if you prefer your home decarb method to keep some of the raw cannabinoids in tact), it's budget friendly.
My Money's On: The Ardent FX
Here's why.
It's got the capacity of a Magical Butter, the convenience of a Levo 2 and the lab-tested reliability of the Nova.
It can decarb and infuse as little as 1 gram or as much as 4 ounces of flower. It has modes to decarboxylate THC, CBD and CBG, so no matter what cannabinoids you're working with, or what ratios, you can do it in the FX.
Then you can just strain the plant material out and throw the entire thing in the dishwasher. It’s so simple.
You can also decarboxylate and infuse concentrates directly in the FX.
I know you can even bake in it, so if you’re living that kitchenette lifestyle, you can use it as a full on cooking device. I’ve heard of people making pasta and banana bread in it.
I haven’t used the bake function just yet, so let me know what you’d like to see cooked in the FX in the comments below and I’ll accept any (realistic) dare!
If you’re looking to get your hands on the Ardent FX, you can use this link to grab this amazing gadget. Don’t forget to use WAKEANDBAKE for $30 off.
Note: If you already own an MB2, Levo or Nova and still love it, that's awesome! I'm not saying you need the newest, most improved thing. It's kind of like when the new phone, computer, TV comes out. Yours still works, but the quality of the new one might be higher. It's just the nature of invention.

April 11, 2020 at 2:21 pmI don’t use the silicon sleeve. I don’t even own one. I use a small Pyrex beaker (it has a little pouring spout, too.) I love my Nova. I’d love to own an FX, but I don’t need to have an appliance that does large batches. (Nor can I afford it at this time.)
Corinne
April 12, 2020 at 7:41 amTotally! If you already have a Nova and the size works for you, it’s great. It’s also lab tested, so we know it works, and mine have lasted for years through seemingly infinite batches. Also, can you share the pyrex beaker you use? I know a lot of folks don’t like to infuse in silicon and would love to share an alternative.
thanks!

April 12, 2020 at 12:23 amYessss, I was waiting eagerly for this review! I’m also surprised at the MB2’s rebranding. They definitely missed the mark completely.
Allen D Magers
April 12, 2020 at 10:20 amI just ordered mine yesterday. I started out decarbing in the oven and using the crock pot to infuse oils. I have been using the MB2 for quite a while and it cut my processing time tremendously and increased the potency by a goodly amount. I am stoked to get the FX just for the decarb feature alone. The only drawback that I can see is you cannot infuse alcohol in the FX.. I will keep the MB2 for that.
Apphia-Yaya Schramenko
April 20, 2020 at 10:32 amWow I’ve been researching this product and I plan to purchase it, I too used the crock n oven method!!
Frank Nason
April 12, 2020 at 6:27 pmI’m using a glass Lee Kum Kee jar that probably had oyster sauce or something similar in it originally. Fits like a glove in the Nova. I’m the same as GEEWHIZ in that I don’t need the FX since I only do small batches and it works perfectly. A beaker with a pour spout would be a better alternative but my glass jar really works well for me.
Simon Hart
April 17, 2020 at 2:35 pmThank you for this review. I understand that one can decarb up to 4 oz dry herb in the FX. What is the min and max amounts in ounces/cups that one infuse in the FX at a time? Thank you!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:55 amGreat question Simon! I’m on it today. Happy 420!
Mitchell
April 19, 2020 at 8:22 amDo you know if the Ardent Lift activates CBD flower as well as THC? Wondering about that other setting for CBD. I’ve been usi ng a lift, but really considering the Flex.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:56 amYep! You get most of a decarb for CBD on the first cycle, if you want to get a few more percent out of your plant material, just let the device cool for at least 20 minutes and run another cycle. Hope that helps!
With love,

fibromyalgiawellness
April 20, 2020 at 12:06 amSounds like a great machine! I have the MB2 and that extra step of decarbing is a pain. I bought an oven thermometer and found my oven temperature was not correct.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:53 amTotally! Ovens are just so inconsistent (which I didn’t know until I learned about decarboxylation!)

Linnea C
April 20, 2020 at 12:38 amI’ve been wanting to invest in a decarb or infusing product but I’m glad I waited because this is perfect! Awesome! So excited to get one of these!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:49 amSo worth the wait. They really knocked it out of the park. Happy 420!

April 20, 2020 at 12:39 amI am interested to see how the FX works. I’m interested in something that will be an all in one. I hope it’s quieter than the MB!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:49 amCompletely… and totally… silent.
The MB2 scares me every single time. No more heart attacks thinking someone’s in your kitchen with a chainsaw 😂
Vanessa
April 20, 2020 at 12:43 amI can’t wait to try this.. the oven is just too unpredictable! Hopefully I’ll get my hands on one soon 😁

April 20, 2020 at 12:47 amYa, this thing is swanky-dank! I always feel I was born too late, not much interest in or use for hi-tech gadgets, silly drivel. Dross. Triflin’! Call me old-fashioned. But this is actually a practical, handy gizmo I could get some use out of. Not only simplifies the process, but gives better results than I could doing it the old-fashioned way. Bravo! I am coveting

Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:47 amSeriously. Kitchen gadgets are usually so meh to me at first until I get the hang of it. And even then, I usually just use one setting (looking at you instapot)… but this thing is so simple all I want to do is put stuff in it 😂Happy 420!

Karen Wyatt
April 20, 2020 at 1:09 amGreat review Corrine. I need this for decarbing and infusing my cbd flower! I can never get it right in the oven and the mbm. Cbd is so tricky to decarb!
Kaitlin Romine
April 20, 2020 at 1:11 amI need one of these 😫 I make my oils the old fashioned way with an oven and crockpot. The process takes so long It’s been awhile since I’ve made any homemade. Instead I’ve been spending way too much on butter from a local dispensary
Katrina
April 20, 2020 at 1:12 amWould like to try this but live in Aussie, so unsure where to purchase this. Will continue using my magic butter machine until I find this.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:46 amI think they ship internationally, no? I’ll check in with them.
Loud Bowl
April 20, 2020 at 1:18 amI was saving up for a Nova, but now that I know there is the Ardent FX I know what I’ll get for sure. In the end I’m happy I waited a bit.
Also for pressing our your weed after a small batch infusion, I love use sing my fine tea strainer. It’s perfect when I infuse a batch up to an half ounce and I can press on the herb with the back of a spoon for maximum extraction. Mine is metal so I can just take it with herb and all and dump it in my soy milk for high chai.
🙂
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:44 amWhat a perfect workaround! Thanks for sharing!
Marlena R Irizarry
April 20, 2020 at 1:20 amI read the article. Can’t wait to get the FX, waiting for a bundle. Interested in the lube…
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:43 amAwesome! Just out of curiosity… What would you like to see in your bundle Marlena? I want to see if I can make your dreams come true 😉 Happy 420!
Maxine Baker
April 20, 2020 at 1:20 amWow, I need this. I’m 71 and just recently started making edibles. The ease of the whole process looks great with the FX. My goal, after this virus is dead, is to have friends over for an entire meal of edibles. Now for your challenge: Bake a vegan fudgy chocolate cake. And…go!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:42 amYES! It’s on the docket now! Thanks maxine 🙏
Casey
April 20, 2020 at 1:45 amYou and your team are an absolute inspiration bringing wonderful positive vibes x Thank you for making it ok and better x
Marlena R Irizarry
April 20, 2020 at 1:52 amGreat article. Thank you for covering(and comparing) the big ticket appliances. Ardent had an amazing Black Friday deal. I missed out because I had questions between the Nova and Levo2. I’m on a fixed income and didn’t want to be stuck with buyers remorse so I waited. I haven’t cooked with weed yet because I live with children and didn’t want the smell to linger. Now I know I want the FX(for the baking capability), just waiting for a bundle(and waiting to see if they come out with a sleeve)

April 20, 2020 at 2:15 amI must must must have one of these amazing machines! New larger size is very appealing and a one-container infusion process is a dream time saver!
I need to have this in my life, for balance and consistency. Much love✌️💚

April 20, 2020 at 2:27 amI appreciate the comparison being easy to understand. Looks awesome!
Elexis Mosley
April 20, 2020 at 2:28 amWow. I never would’ve guess there was a device like this! Really interesting in using that device to make edibles
Dominiqué
April 20, 2020 at 2:55 amThese devices all seem so nifty and like they bring an increased level of ease to infusions. I think you should go classic & bake brownies or maybe a cookie?
Dominique'
April 20, 2020 at 2:58 amThese devices are so nifty. Would love the ease of one fo streamline my infusing. You should go classic with brownies or cookies for that first bake
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:40 amI think cookies might be tough, but brownies could work. I’m on it!
Garry Harms
April 20, 2020 at 3:00 amSo to be clear, the FX can infuse up to 5 cups oil same as the MB2? To quote you, ”
My Money’s On: The Ardent FX
Here’s why.
It’s got the capacity of a Magical Butter, ”
So the FX will infuse 5 cups like the MB2? Or will it do more?
Thanks Corinne, you’re a babe.”
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:39 amOoooh! Great question Garry! And the answer is… I don’t know yet! Let me see how many cups fit to the max capacity today and report back.
with love,
Corinne
Unkle Krusty
April 20, 2020 at 3:04 amHave been infusing the “Old School” way reading the reviews on the FX & watching the Youtube vid inspires me to move into the future of infusing which is here right now with the FX!

April 20, 2020 at 4:24 amI love my nova, but it is too small, this is looking spot on!
Martha Lang
April 20, 2020 at 4:39 amI’m an absolute beginner and will be doing small batches to start. I’m a cannabis coach (by need), caregiver and patient as well as an amateur chef. I’m using distillates and concentrates but feel I want to have this skill in my wheelhouse. Thanks for any advice you may want to share.
Jory Kirkpatrick
April 20, 2020 at 5:34 amI’ve tried many ways of decarbing over the years and the nova is by far the best I’ve ever tried, and I’m sure the fox is even more impressive. I wish I had the extra money for one now, but I just bought a qp at the dispensary for the holiday last week. I could really really use an FX right now! I hope and pray I win one!
Leeanne Morad
April 20, 2020 at 5:36 amSo far I love it. Can’t wait to get recipes to use it.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:33 amWe’re on it. An FX cookbook is in the works!
Jerry
April 20, 2020 at 5:53 amThis looks like a great device, who wouldn’t want a “one device for every step”. I will have to save some pennies for a while to get one tho.

April 20, 2020 at 6:23 amThank you for the informative and interesting article. I’m really interested in the machines just haven’t bought one yet.
Alex Griffiths
April 20, 2020 at 6:34 amThis looks like such an impressive bit of kit. Great review.
Cynthia Gaydos
April 20, 2020 at 6:50 amSounds like it’s much better for decarb than the oven.
Mich
April 20, 2020 at 6:51 amNova is just right for my needs now. I would like to branch out and try additional products such as lotions. Looking forward to needing the FX. Thank you for your products!!
Douglas Tesch
April 20, 2020 at 6:52 amI love the Nova and just recently got my FX. Love these great machines.
Colleen
April 20, 2020 at 7:01 amI currently have the MB2, however after reading your review, I really appreciate the sleek look and versatility of the Ardent FX. Do you know when they will have a strainer sleeve available? Looking forward to what they will come up with!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:31 amThere’s talk of a french press-type straining device coming out soon. I cannot wait for to see what they come up with either! A strainer will make this thing perfect.
Everley
April 20, 2020 at 7:05 amI bought the Butter Machine version of the decaroxalator and man does it stink after! I can’t hide it anywhere w/o it smelling up the closet or whatever. Does the Ardent have an odor, or does the case hide the smell?
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:30 amSome say it has a faint smell, but I never notice it. It’s as discreet as it gets 🙂
Teril
April 20, 2020 at 7:16 amThis sounds amazing! I currently do the bake to decarb/crockpot Mason jar infusion method. This would seriously change my time spent, lol. I kinda hoard my infusions & don’t experiment much because it’s so time consuming & I don’t want to waste it.
Heather Collins
April 20, 2020 at 7:32 amI’m stoked for the FX! The Nova is such a great tool and I’d love to step up my game and decarb, infuse, and bake all in one machine.
Sharon
April 20, 2020 at 7:36 amMy decarb box is the only gadget I’ve used – unless you count my crockpot. Would be great to be able to make fresh stuff, in larger amounts, without all the fuss. Definitely out of my budget, though – especially now, in lockdown lay-off.
Donna maugeri
April 20, 2020 at 7:42 amI have the levo 1, sounds ideal, but I read some bad reviews about customer service. Have you had any issues?
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:04 amI’ve never had issues, but I will say this… Ardent is a small business. I know folks expect Amazon-like response times from everyone on the internet, but as a small business owner myself, I now that sometimes it’s just not possible. They’re also growing, so the growing pains of training new customer support staff can be rough sometimes. Plus, they’re not just a company, they’re activists and curious cannabis consumers who do a lot of experimenting and lab testing. I know that they really care and that’s what matters to me.
Sarah Kubaszak
April 20, 2020 at 7:44 amI have been looking into buying the original Nova for a while now and with the FX coming out it is a game changer. Thanks for a very thorough review!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:59 amYou’re so welcome! Happy 420!
Sana
April 20, 2020 at 7:45 amWelp, looks like this just replaced the Levo II on my wishlist
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:58 amHey love! Happy 420! And that totally makes sense… it’s the dopest thing on the market now for sure!
Jennifer E Johnson
April 20, 2020 at 7:47 amI would love to try one! I like my MB2
Home Johnson
April 20, 2020 at 7:52 amThe MB2 grinds the cannabis during cycles and the FX does not. Does the FX require you to grind in advance? What impact does this have on infusion? Thanks!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 7:58 amGreat question! You do not have to grind up your material in the FX which means you get a much more amber colored product (trichomes only). This improves flavor for most folks. You can break up dense buds, but you get to keep the plant in tact which reduces the plant material in your final product. Hope that helps!
With love,
CT
Dona Turgeon
April 20, 2020 at 7:57 amBased on this review I bit the bullet and ordered Ardent FX. Never made an edible but want to for me as I don’t like to inhale smoke, and my honey who has COPD and with pain from working in construction trade in his younger years, likes to use mj but shouldn’t inhale. If I win the Ardent, I have someone special to share it with.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:57 pmYou’ve got this Dona! Let me know if you have any questions and we’ll point you in the right direction. We’re here to help!
Michelle
April 20, 2020 at 8:00 amWish I had the money for this. Would take up a lot less space than the Nova & MB2 do.
Amy N
April 20, 2020 at 8:15 amI love my Nova- its been a godsend, cut down on time and guess-timating in the kitchen. Stoked that the FX is so much larger! Happy 4/20- Stay home, stay safe and stay stoned!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:40 amYes! Happy 420 Amy!
tigerpond
April 20, 2020 at 8:21 amFor decarbing flower that is 5% THC and 15% CBD in the FX do you just do one cycle like with the Nova? Thanks Corinne! I’ve used my Nova to make an oil extract out flower with these percentages to cure skin rashes from disinfectants at work. I had a terrible one on my face.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:41 amSo good to know! I think that’s right, but I’ll double check with Ardent just to make sure. Happy 420!
Michelle Childers
April 20, 2020 at 8:21 amI read this review a couple days ago. I would love to put this new all in one device to work for me, but not really in my budget right now. Thanks for testing it out and keeping us informed Corrine!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:41 amTotally! It’s truly my pleasure 😉 Happy 420!
Ashley Shaw
April 20, 2020 at 8:23 amGreat review! I’ve been debating which one to invest in and this seems like THE thing. I’ve been using the old crock pot method…. very unreliable! Hoping to get the FX soon!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:40 amSuch an upgrade! Happy 420 Ashley!
Shelli
April 20, 2020 at 8:41 amI’m so impressed with this! Looks the perfect gadget!
Cher
April 20, 2020 at 8:47 amAppreciate your knowledge!
Kristin Mule
April 20, 2020 at 8:49 amThis appliance appears to be “da bomb”!! I’m not much of a baker but would definitely try that function. Also love the different settings for decarbing….I’m into CBG right now and it’s nice to know that it will be decarbed at the right temp. The FX NEEDS to a home on my counter!!!
Jennifer Schildknecht
April 20, 2020 at 8:59 amThis sounds like it might be perfect for apartment living 😉
Robbin davis
April 20, 2020 at 9:00 amLove the new size, makes large batch productions a little easier.❤️❤️❤️
Samantha Kauric
April 20, 2020 at 9:01 amI so wish I hadn’t just bought the mb2 machine a week before receiving the email about the ardent FX because I definitely would have bought that instead. I love my ardent decarb machine just alway wished it was bigger and I love my mb2 machine as I’m always making big batches of oil. I tried out the levo 2 but did not realize it was for small batches only and the way the infuser strainer sticks to the side made me feel like even if I wanted to only infuse one cup, half the strainer wouldn’t be in the oil, so I returned it.
Dianna Elliott
April 20, 2020 at 9:05 amThanks for the review
Dannielle
April 20, 2020 at 9:07 amThanks Corrine for such a thorough review. I’ve wanted an ardent device for a long time so I’m excited to see the company growing. Thanks for always staying on top of developments in the industry.
Thomas O'Keefe
April 20, 2020 at 9:11 amI like that but is almost idiot proof! I I can recall one directive, plug it in, I should be good!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:56 pmThis is my favorite part.
Jassmin
April 20, 2020 at 9:12 amWhat a neat little device! All this time I had just been decarbing in the oven and sharing that lovely smell with my dear neighbors! Not only would this little dude get the job done for thc flower, but it has special settings for cbd!! This is nuts!!! Hats off to you guys. Would love to grab one of these! deff telling my friends about it.
Peta Woolley
April 20, 2020 at 9:12 amThe complete system. Fabulous. All I’d want.
Steven Villanueva
April 20, 2020 at 9:13 amI use my nova all the time to decarb and also infuse oil in little batches. I love it.
Victoria Kerba
April 20, 2020 at 9:14 amWow! 30% lost seems crazy high! Happy 420!!! Thanks for the chance to win this INCREDIBLE life altering device!!
Kristopher
April 20, 2020 at 9:14 amSounds like my life is about to get easier!
Julie
April 20, 2020 at 9:15 amThe new FX looks great! I definitely love the carrying case as a bonus as the devices can be a bit cumbersome! Thank you for the helpful review as usual! They always help find the best devices and put my money to good use. I own the MB and Nova and both have treated me so well
Marisa S
April 20, 2020 at 9:16 amI found a decent DIY version of decarbing in your oven and while it seemed to work, I am not sure I got the most bang for my buck, so to speak. The Ardent FX is now on the wish list b/c after making my very first batch of edibles, I’d really like to make more!
Shannon
April 20, 2020 at 9:17 amI would love love love one of these! I currently use the old fashion method to decarb (oven) & then make all my infusions with the MB2. However, I would like to make them stronger as most of my products I make go to those suffering with sleep issues and cancer patients request for them to be stronger. Even though I use more flower in my infusions I just can’t seem to get them stronger. Possibly this machine may help with that. I prettt much have an endless supply of flower, so I experiment all the time. I’ve been recently making batches of MBO but can’t seem to reduce it down to a syrupy consistency. Any tips??
Kristopher
April 20, 2020 at 9:18 amThis will make my life better!
Melissa
April 20, 2020 at 9:19 amI have been wanting to get one of these for a long time. Thanks for the opportunity.
LSuchy
April 20, 2020 at 9:21 amI have a question about odor, does the Ardent (or Nova) leave any odor when Decarbing, like when it’s done in the oven?
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:55 pmSome say it has a faint smell, but nothing like the oven.
Beth Olson
April 20, 2020 at 9:22 amArdent FX has it all and then some. This would be amazing to have! Can’t wait to try it.
Thomas O'Keefe
April 20, 2020 at 9:23 amI left a comment earlier but don’t see it!
Will this ship to Canada ?
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:54 pmYep! They ship worldwide 🙂
Bekka
April 20, 2020 at 9:24 amGreat information I need this in my life
Carolyn Davis
April 20, 2020 at 9:25 amI’ve been interested in one of these for ages and would love to get my hands on one of them.
Julia Ryan
April 20, 2020 at 9:25 amYour reviews are great & I can’t wait for the live insta today! Happy 420 💚
Janet Morrison
April 20, 2020 at 9:27 amWow I am so ready for an Ardent FX in my (small) kitchen. I love my Nova however it is always working overtime ( no union breaks here! We ) because of the size. Since cannabis is my go to medicine in the form of edibles it would be amazing to have this incredible compact multi-functional machine as a permanent fixture in my kitchen!
Brandi Miss
April 20, 2020 at 9:30 amI love my Nova! I also love my Levo, but am not able to use as much flower as I want to make oil strong enough. The MB machine makes everything too green and gross. I am super stoked to try the FX😍
Leah Pullifrone
April 20, 2020 at 9:30 amLooks awesome! I would love something small to start baking.
Alex
April 20, 2020 at 9:32 amYou highlighted CBG in your review – I’m interested in strategies to make infusions that focus on lesser known cannabinoids. Probably starts with the right strain, but does temperature or technique play into it too?
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 10:43 amWe just don’t know yet. This is the first year you could really access CBG online. I’m back to experimenting on myself (put it in my coffee this morning) and am liking the effects so far. The most pronounced one for me has been the mood boost. It’s like the elevation and happy feeling of THC without the intoxication. Let me know what you find if you try it. We all learn more if we share! Happy 420! xoxo-CT
Melissa Gellert
April 20, 2020 at 9:33 amI love my Nova, plus I have the infusion sleeve and frainer. They’ve helped me get through this pandemic by turning my flower into awesome homemade oil. I can’t imagine the next step up this device would give me!
Emily Jones
April 20, 2020 at 9:34 amWould love to try this! Happy 420 everyone
Zachary Ray
April 20, 2020 at 9:34 amLove my original Nova, but it recently went out on me so I’m in need of a new decarb machine and the FX sure seems like the answer!!! I am hoping to win or have enough saves up over the next few months:)!! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge, I really enjoy reading all of your output! Cheers, happy 420!
Jen Lambert
April 20, 2020 at 9:36 amLove my Nova! Would love to try the larger model for sure!
Samantha Reed
April 20, 2020 at 9:37 amI’ve been debating for years the use of this machine, but reading this and be re-reminded of the amount of medicine I’m losing via traditional decarb methods really hit me this time, plus you can bake in it!!!! I’m a baker by trade and think convenience wise, I can legit up my edible game, plus that sprayable weed lube may also be at the top of my list…
Ms Janine M Morgan
April 20, 2020 at 9:38 amHappy 420!! Great review, and makes me wistful….I would absolutely love to have this, but I have already bought the Levo2, and a Magical butter 2 machine (MB2). Being n the UK is difficult to get the correct voltage as well!
I’ll be crossing fingers and sending a prayer out to the universe to win it! Lol
Sherry Owings
April 20, 2020 at 9:39 amHappy 420! Love !
Heather Kirby
April 20, 2020 at 9:40 amExcited to Win!

Gail Willis
April 20, 2020 at 9:44 amThis was a very good review of the different tools available for decarbing. I have the Magical Butter Machine and love it but I usually don’t have large amounts to decarb so the Nova FX sounds wonderful.
Thank you so much!
Shawn hill
April 20, 2020 at 9:44 amI am looking into alternative consumption ways. I grow my own cannabis. Usually smoke it but, I had a minor heart attack last week. I had quit smoking cigs prior to the heart attack. I want to be able to consume it with out more damage to my heart.I use it mainly for pain relief. I’ve broke my neck and back before and have hardware in my leg. I’m mainly want a healthier way to consume it.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 10:40 amI’m sorry to hear that. Edibles, tinctures and salves are great alternatives to smoking. You’re in the right place! xoxo- CT
Lindsay Thompson
April 20, 2020 at 9:46 amLooks amazing! Looks like it solves all of the Levo issues. Excited to try it!
Rica Smith De La Luz
April 20, 2020 at 9:47 amThanks Corinne, Not sure if my other comment posted. Love the give away, love the reviews, stoked to have new info for time and $ saving gadget solutions for my test kitchen.
Thanks for your amazon passion and sharing your discoveries!
Rica
Mark Reyes
April 20, 2020 at 9:49 amLoved this review. I have only used the oven method, as I couldn’t afford the cost of this type of appliance. I can totally see the investment will be well worth the cost! Cannot wait to purchase this and use it! Just want to say, I’ve followed you for a long time. Your articles and reviews are a great read, and I learn a lot more! Look forward to all your future blogs!! Thank you for what you do!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 10:39 amThank you so much for the love Mark! Happy 420! xoxo – CT
Pat
April 20, 2020 at 9:50 amThanks Corinne – I am an avid follower & really appreciate the info. May move over soon, for now still Novo & MB2.
Tiffany Bland
April 20, 2020 at 9:50 amWhat a wonderful review! I’m currently decarbing in the oven and infusing oil in my crockpot…I would love to upgrade!

Albert
April 20, 2020 at 9:54 amBased on your comment a year ago I bought the nova and have enjoyed the unit since. I would enjoy the many options the FX has to offer

April 20, 2020 at 9:55 amHappy 420 everyone ✌✌✌ Stay positive, healthy and keep loving yourself no matter what gets thrown your way💓💗🧘♀️
I can’t believe how much work this new machine can do!🧐 It definently looks like an extra set of hands hands to help out…..I can’t believe that you can cook in it….like what….muffins…..it’s like an easy back oven…..but for grown-ups….I sooo have homer Simpson brain…..simply put that was my reaction to the new Ardent Machine 🤔😯
(Insert Homer’s voice) what the….it can….you can…do so many things…..😶🤔🤯🤯🤯
🤕….sooo cool…
I have the ardent ( last generation) and it’s worth it, it’s constance and that is one of the keys for me when making/cooking with flower. 👩🍳
Image all the fun with this new bad purple baby 😌😜
I can’t find the drooling face emoji

Toni Keller Perrone
April 20, 2020 at 9:57 amI cannot wait to buy the FX! Unless I am lucky enough to win it!
Logill
April 20, 2020 at 9:57 amI like the footprint for this appliance. Its on my wish list
Heather
April 20, 2020 at 9:58 amHappy 420! I love my Nova!! I currently use it for decarbing and infusion of small batches and was looking for the FX before it came out! The capabilities of the FX are EXACTLY what I need and though I will have to budget a little longer for it I know it will be worth the wait! Thanks for your thorough review!
Ray Louis
April 20, 2020 at 9:59 amI read the review. Do you know your article links are going to a 404 page?
I’m referring to: “You can make pain salve, cannabanana bread, or homemade weed lube.”
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 10:37 amOh no! I did not know that… I’ll fix that right away! Thanks Ray! Happy 420!
Angela Herron
April 20, 2020 at 9:59 amHave the Nova Lift and absolutely love it. Would love to eventually invest in the FLEX, or FX!!
Sarah Strattan
April 20, 2020 at 10:00 amACNA member here. I can’t wait to try out the FX! I have so many patients who ask for suggestions, and I don’t like to recommend something that I’ve never personally tried. Hope to recommend this soon!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 10:37 amSame here. It’s really the best I’ve tried so far and would love to see if you agree!
Ruth Koller
April 20, 2020 at 10:00 amThis is still all very new to me. It sounds fairly simple with this machine. I would love to try to make my own CBD to help me sleep and help with pain as I am a senior citizen.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 10:37 amThis and the smaller Nova are very simple push button devices. I’ll make more videos in the future (maybe one where I teach an elder how to use it!) You just gave me a great idea! Thanks Ruth!
Cali Gurl
April 20, 2020 at 10:00 amThank you for the wonderful and in-depth review! I would sooo love an FX so I can say bye-bye to my crock pot! When I get back to work I will be buying one!
Jennifer Miller
April 20, 2020 at 10:01 amLooks interesting, but new to items like this
Tracy Hill
April 20, 2020 at 10:01 amHave always done things the old school way but this looks great. So hard to find anything but flower now a days. This looks so much easier and convenient.
Joel Kaye
April 20, 2020 at 10:03 amThis might be just what I need! I’ve been decanting and infusing the old fashion way, in the oven and crock pot. This would make it so much easier.
Daniel E Hamilton
April 20, 2020 at 10:04 amThings keep getting easier, can’t hardly wait and see what 2020 brings. Happy 420
Julia Casey
April 20, 2020 at 10:05 amAwesome review. I LOVE my Nova, but would also like to upgrade. What size pyrex beaker works in the Nova? Also would need one (or a larger sleeve, which I’ve contacted Ardent about already)
Sara
April 20, 2020 at 10:06 amThe FX sounds very appealing! I had the MB machine but it can be cumbersome to clean. The all in one and dishwasher safe makes me want the FX!
Joe Williams
April 20, 2020 at 10:08 amVery Cool! Can’t wait to try one!
Dawn
April 20, 2020 at 10:10 amGreat review. Thanks for all the good info!

4/20 for a month!

April 20, 2020 at 10:35 amAll month long! Haven’t tried the bake funciton yet, and I’m still accepting baking dares 😉
Tamson Telison
April 20, 2020 at 10:11 amHappy 420 Corinne and awesome crew!! I Always love reading your posts and reviews. I’ve learned a lot from you already and can’t wait to talk further on your upcoming cannabis Coach education coming later in the year. I have the butter brewer which has a decarb option. As farmers ~ we love it. But the Nova is peaking my interest for sure to share with others. 😃 Stay Safe and happy days for sure!
Ren
April 20, 2020 at 10:13 amThanks for the detailed review! Been trying to convince my fellow we need something like this to for max efficiency and consistency of our oil. This will def help with my argument and be an excellent upgrade from the crock pot. Thank you, thank you! 🙂
Kerry Myles
April 20, 2020 at 10:14 amI love our Levo and MB2 but this new device looks perfect for our needs!
Angie Ferris
April 20, 2020 at 10:15 amI’m so excited by this product! I’m making a cannabis cooking area in my kitchen and this would be the perfect addition!
D-Mac
April 20, 2020 at 10:17 amA great review, thank you for the time and effort you put in to providing great information. Looks like a great device
Doug Tatro
April 20, 2020 at 10:18 amNice improvement great product. Definitely in my future!
Peter Fisher
April 20, 2020 at 10:18 amThat is one incredible machine. I must get one for my own personal use. Are use cannabis for medical reasons and this will be a money saving device.
Solo
April 20, 2020 at 10:20 amI love this article. It’s so in depth. I bought my Levo based off of an article on here. I’m a little disappointed I spent so much money for poor results but it’s all good. I’m praying I can get my hands on one of these soon though so I can finally start things up the right way! Thank you for being so informative!
Joel Brooks
April 20, 2020 at 10:21 amThis looks like the appliance I have been waiting for. We’re Sheltering in Place in SoCal right now, but I am ordering one as soon as we can get on the road home. Can’t wait!
Aimy Tran
April 20, 2020 at 10:23 amAll I have to say is wow. I’ve been using the MB2 machine after decanting in the oven and every time I try to infuse oil, it’s not enough. And messy!! Whether I win or not, the FX is definitely getting added to my bday wishlist!
Betty Brodnan
April 20, 2020 at 10:24 amI would love one of these . I have the magical butter machine and the decarb box. They are great but I like that the ardent does it all on its own and takes the guess work out. When decarbing in the oven I worry that my oven is not accurate.

April 20, 2020 at 10:27 amI can’t wait to try this! Portioning and consistency has always been an issue and this looks fantastic!
Carolyn
April 20, 2020 at 10:27 amI love my MB2 and Ardent Lift, but I really love the idea of an all-in-one that goes in the dishwasher! The FX sounds fab!
Wired Wolf
April 20, 2020 at 10:27 amI just got a Nova last year (OMG so much better than a oven/crockpot!) but now I want the FX…bit of a pain to do large batches in the Nova and the “bake” function of the FX is appealing too. Our kitchen is miniscule so anything I can do to keep my cooking experiments as contained as possible is worth a look.
Akiah
April 20, 2020 at 10:28 amI have a Magical Butter machine, a Nova and an FX. I LOVE all three of them! I would love to have another one!
kimberly Ross-Tarver
April 20, 2020 at 10:31 amI would love one of these! With my asthma sometimes I just can’t smoke and edibles are the answer but cost way too much at the dispensary.
Rachel
April 20, 2020 at 10:31 amLove the vision of the new FX. I have a Nova but would love the all in one functionality and that larger size would save lots of time.
Adam Wheeler
April 20, 2020 at 10:32 amLooks pretty awesome. This would make life so much easier on cooking with it.
Becca
April 20, 2020 at 10:34 amI need one of these so hard. I normally do the crock-pot method, but I had no idea you lost so much during the process. I love eating my weed. 😄
Tonna Butler-Johnson
April 20, 2020 at 10:35 amAwesome review. I need one of these in my life right now! Thanks for sharing.
Sedrick Malone
April 20, 2020 at 10:35 amI want one!
Mary Bertagnoli
April 20, 2020 at 10:36 amHappy to read the review. Ardent makes amazing product line.
Dave Johnson
April 20, 2020 at 10:36 amWhen Florida joins the woke world and I can grow my own I’ll definitely go for the FX. Thanks for a great review!
Lisa Kav
April 20, 2020 at 10:39 amI’d love to upgrade from decarbing in my oven. Thanks for your recipes and knowledge
steffanie journey
April 20, 2020 at 10:39 amI’m lucky enough to have an MB2 and the Nova but I’ll likely sell them to have this all in one machine for it’s smaller footprint. Thanks for the review!
Mindy
April 20, 2020 at 10:41 amThis sounds amazing!
Tommy Mullen
April 20, 2020 at 10:42 amCan’t wait to get back to work & get the FX. lots of questions answered!
Thank You!
Zonna
April 20, 2020 at 10:42 amI have 2 MB machines. My Nova just broke the other night I swear. Now I have no way to decarb correctly! The bottom fell off and a side piece broke. I’ve had it since it first came out. So it’s been used. 😃 The nova fx is out of my budget. Would love to have one though. It’s perfect!
Dave
April 20, 2020 at 10:45 am30 bucks off? That’s nice!
Jan Kor
April 20, 2020 at 10:46 amSure looks like a no fuss no mess way to decarb!
Rodrigo Garcia
April 20, 2020 at 10:47 amI love cooking and I’m always looking for new and exiting products or ways in doing so. Would love an easy bake oven
Jan Kor
April 20, 2020 at 10:47 amSure looks like a no fuss, no mess way to decarb!
Kat
April 20, 2020 at 10:48 amSuper helpful review! I love a product that makes the work easier. Decarbing is a processing so understand the con but clean and easy sounds like a win to me
Jennifer Young
April 20, 2020 at 10:49 amThough my Nova does everything I need at the moment, I can see the value of the FX in the future. I mostly smoke or vape flower, but with COVID, I am infusing oil more. I imagine as I go along and want to expand my range of use with decarbed flower and infusions, the FX will be a great help. Thanks for all you do, Corinne!
Laura
April 20, 2020 at 10:50 amHey awesome review! I have an Ardent Lift and an MB2. I did have problems when I wanted to infuse and didn’t have enough herb to do! It would be great to have something to do small batches in! Thanks Corrine! 😁😋 Love your site!
Allie
April 20, 2020 at 10:50 amI need this in my life
Angela
April 20, 2020 at 10:51 amI have been waiting on something smaller than my MBM but larger capacity than my Nova. I also wanted it to be as efficient as the NOVA. Ooh, if only I had the funds..
Jan Kor
April 20, 2020 at 10:52 amThe FX would definitely simply the processing of my medicine. What an easy to follow process! Clean up is a breeze.
Terry
April 20, 2020 at 10:53 amThis is a really solid review. Nice job. I have the Nova, and don’t really need the FX, but if I win the lottery…
tom Jackert
April 20, 2020 at 10:53 amGreat looking product, can’t wait to Win mine!!!!
Mike O
April 20, 2020 at 10:55 amA happy 420 to you. Very thorough review and competitive analysis. Based on your earlier review of the Nova, I started with that awesome device. Great for decarbing, but I found it clunky for infusing (it’s difficult to remove the sleeve, which inevitably causes spillage if you fill it close to the top.) So I got a Levo2 for infusing, again based on your review. I preferred the Ardent for decarbing, and the infusion cycle was easy with the Levo2, but weak as you mentioned (especially when I make high potency topicals). The FX sounds like the best of the best features of those devices, and I’m hoping Santa Claus is kind to me later this year. Keep up the great work.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:52 pmSame! The FX is a combination of all the things we’ve been complaining about for the past 10 years. They listened!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:52 pmSame experience! The FX is a combination of all the things we’ve been complaining about for the past 10 years. They listened!
Emily
April 20, 2020 at 10:55 amI don’t own the ardent FX but I would love to after reading the reviews! Cannabis has changed my life and I love all of the tips and tricks that you share Corinne! Thank you!
Tom Clay
April 20, 2020 at 10:56 amSounds interesting
Wes
April 20, 2020 at 10:58 amBeen using your recipes as gospel. Thanks so much for all the advice

April 20, 2020 at 10:59 amCorinne to the rescue once more. She does nothing half-assed, and this review is further proof that nobody is more willing to give us the info we want, the education we need, than Corinne (and Fiona). You continue to earn the trust of so many who are looking for authentic, trustworthy souls like yourself. Thanks for being so thorough! I love my Nova, but your insightful review has me putting the FX on my wish list.
Cyndee
April 20, 2020 at 11:01 amI love your reviews, always very educational and just fun!
Facundo
April 20, 2020 at 11:01 amWow this looks impressive, and after learning how ineffective ovens are for decarboxylation I think I’ going for one. Happy 4/20 all!
Melissa Ball-Martin
April 20, 2020 at 11:02 amI love my original. This seems soooo much better and versatile.
David
April 20, 2020 at 11:03 amHappy 420!
This thing looks awesome!!
Stephanie
April 20, 2020 at 11:04 amI’ve used the MB for 2 years and got the Nova for Christmas! Minus the MB sounding like it’s going to take off when it churns, I’ve been very happy with the product. Much better than stirring a pot on the stove every 20 min lol. I’d be super excited to get the FX and only
Use one machine !! Btw the cloud cakes – LOVE THEM!
Kate-o
April 20, 2020 at 11:05 amI am still using a mason jar in my crock pot 🙁 and decarbing in the oven like the olden days lol! One day I would love to have a new school device to help.
Brendan Saffron
April 20, 2020 at 11:07 amThese reviews, articles, recipes have been essential in my journey. Thank you Corrine and Fiona for your diligent and beautiful efforts. I’m starting a small business this year and have been experimenting in my kitchen with ethanol tinctures and oils for a while before I found your website. Mostly hemp with CBD/CBG. Now you two are a staple for me. I was drooling over though FX the first time I read the review a few days ago. I live with family who are supportive of my endeavors but hate the smell which means I can only do carbs and cook when they’re not around. That’s not very often. I would be ecstatic to win the FX seeing as I already use your recipes for butters coconut oil‘s and extra-virgin olive oil‘s. Thank you for all you do! Happy 4/20
Shawn Karnes
April 20, 2020 at 11:07 amHad my Ardent for 3 years now and use it weekly to make edibles and topicals for me and the wife. She has early onset Parkinson’s and the gummies and topicals I make with the Ardent Nova help her more than the all the meds she used to take. Definitely have to look to upgrading to the FX in the near future.
Katie
April 20, 2020 at 11:08 amSo excited about this review!
Melissa Coleman
April 20, 2020 at 11:10 amI love the idea of an all in one option! I would be super excited to have one for myself.
Cyndee
April 20, 2020 at 11:10 amI love your reviews, they are always informative, fun and useful. Happy 420!

April 20, 2020 at 11:11 amThis would be awesome for my small apartment!
Daryn Bogart
April 20, 2020 at 11:12 amLove the review. Finances dont allow the purchase just yet but would LOVE an Adrent when they do.
Casey Gervig
April 20, 2020 at 11:15 amOMG your video was so fun to watch!! Love the FX 😀
Kristen
April 20, 2020 at 11:16 amI love that you can decarb and infuse in 1 machine!
Rhianon Glidden
April 20, 2020 at 11:22 amLooks amazing and easy to use.
Russel
April 20, 2020 at 11:24 amI have the Nova, but would love to get the FX. Can’t wait to see your video of baking in it . Thank you for the review
Matt Porter
April 20, 2020 at 11:25 amThanks for the review. Would love to get one of these!
Dena Neuhart
April 20, 2020 at 11:26 amThank you for all the info, now I want the Ardent fx to add to my cooking gadgets. 💚
Jennifer Wilding
April 20, 2020 at 11:27 amHey Corinne and crew … I have not tried the Nova or the Levo yet, I have the MB2 and love it, would love to get another machine to help my machine(my kitchen) run a little better, I make a lot of stuff!! I’m currently taking your CCI class with Fiona and the other Tribe members and have gotten SO MUCH out of it and have absolutely enjoyed it!! Thank you for being the pioneer woman that you are Corinne and who knows maybe I’ll will a freebie lmao … happy 420 peeps
Denise Taylor
April 20, 2020 at 11:27 amThanks Corinne for the great review! I have a Nova and absolutely love it. The FX looks pretty awesome. I have learned so much through your site, keep up the great work!
Olivia
April 20, 2020 at 11:30 amAwesome review, thanks! I would love to get one of these
Bruce Vogel
April 20, 2020 at 11:31 amThe FX looks like a great machine! I picked up your Cannabis Kitchen Bundle last year, then added the Levo I to the set up later in the year so I could make smaller batches. Do you have a guide on times and temperatures for decarbing and infusing? I’ve been using the suggested times and temps on the devices. I do edibles and tinctures as well as micro dosing.
Ann
April 20, 2020 at 11:34 amCorinne – thank u for the review – I decarb and infuse old school – this sounds so easy! Happy 420!
Amarie
April 20, 2020 at 11:35 amThanks for this review. I’m new to these products so the comparisons are really helpful.
Victor
April 20, 2020 at 11:39 amYesss! I can’t wait to get one of these myself!
Hanna Lyons
April 20, 2020 at 11:40 amI understand the uses of the FX and really appreciate this review clarifying the differences among the machines. My Nove meets my current needs.
Karen
April 20, 2020 at 11:42 amI’m new at learning to make edibles. This would be a super helpful tool to have in my kitchen.
Heather Skinner
April 20, 2020 at 11:43 amI actually read this review a few days ago and purchased the FX, but I have a question do you need the silicone sleeve for infusion/baking in the unit. Also I have yet to see a baking video so that would be a nice demo to see in my opinion.
Thanks,
Heather
Erin
April 20, 2020 at 11:44 amI’ve been making medicinal edibles for myself and my friend with severe back injuries. This baby would streamline my process so much! 🙏🏽
Jennie sherwood
April 20, 2020 at 11:45 amHappy 420 from Tucson 🌵🌵 thinking of all the goodies and medicine I will make when I win!
Randy Herzog
April 20, 2020 at 11:47 amWould love to be able to use to use with my baking
Katie
April 20, 2020 at 11:47 amI have been looking at getting the FX. I was hoping it wasn’t too good to be true. Thanks for this awesome review!
I couldn’t see on their site, does the silicon sleeve come with it?
lillian
April 20, 2020 at 11:47 amJust what i need right now .
Nadia
April 20, 2020 at 11:48 amThis is exactly what I need. I’d love to make my own CBD oil but I’m worried that the cost savings of making my own would be negated by the lower rate of cannabinoids infused into oil at home.
Kathryn
April 20, 2020 at 11:51 amHelpful review of the Ardent FX — with different machines available like the Levo, Magic Butter and the Ardent — it is helpful to see the FX machine in action and hear the feedback about how it can be used.
Dorsie Hathaway
April 20, 2020 at 11:54 amWhat an awesome and thorough review!
ChA ChI
April 20, 2020 at 11:55 amHow exciting! I love baking and this would be an amazing addition to the kitchen.
Marla Strother
April 20, 2020 at 11:56 amThis looks wonderful unfortunately I just purchased the LEVO II so will have to save up for this one! It looks great and I really like that it will do way more!
Rad
April 20, 2020 at 11:58 amThe FX sounds great! I’d love to have one but can’t afford this price. Maybe I’ll win the contest!
Brian Thad Simonds
April 20, 2020 at 11:59 amThis new gadget appears to be right up my alley. I’ve been processing via more primitive method. This looks much more efficient.
Michèle
April 20, 2020 at 11:59 amLove your site. I look forward to more freedom in Europe one day too.
Darlene Saumure
April 20, 2020 at 12:00 pmI currently have the MB2 and have been wanting a Levo 2 or Ardent just because the MB2 only does large batches. The Ardent FX is the answer!
Michèle
April 20, 2020 at 12:01 pmThanks for sharing all your wisdom and passion!

April 20, 2020 at 12:08 pmThis review content is thorough, admirably transparent about the author’s own preferences, and reliable in its experienced-based assessment. This is on brand with the bog’s mission and by providing authoritative, experience-based information, is of immense practical value to the consumer.

April 20, 2020 at 12:11 pmI would LOVE to try this, but my cheap self won’t allow me to splurge when my beloved Mason jar is still in commission…and FREE. Happy 420! 😁❤🥳
Jen Gerstung
April 20, 2020 at 12:11 pmKeep sharing the lovely ideas.. we are all in this together…..we all have so much to learn from each other. I’m looking forward to seeing big things happening in our world today because we understand why it’s so important to heal ourselves and make our world a better place. Thank you goddess Corinne for bringing us all together to share the love of cannabis.
Marshena Kemp
April 20, 2020 at 12:18 pmI have the nova with the purple sleeve, I like it, but I recently bought the LĒVO 2 and I really like it, very easy to use, I really like it. The ardent fx looks very cool. I’m interested in learning more about it. Thanks for the great info! 😉
Joe Bono
April 20, 2020 at 12:21 pmI’m not much of a chief but you help with making things easier for me yo at least try and get nice results, thanks
Peter
April 20, 2020 at 12:25 pmSo easy, effective and efficient! I like my Nova.
Renea C
April 20, 2020 at 12:25 pmThank you for the review! As someone who uses edibles for my fibro and other autoimmune and pain health issues, the FX sounds like it could have a permanent space on my counter
Melissa Evans
April 20, 2020 at 12:33 pmThis sounds something more like I’m looking for. I had purchased the magic butter machine but it requires too much material and it makes too much at one time. This looks like I’ll be just enough. I hope I do get one sometime soon
Jennifer Wilding
April 20, 2020 at 12:34 pmHey Corinne, I just ordered mine using the WAKEANDBAKE code and I cant wait. I have been using the MB2 and have been wanting to get another machine to help my machine (my kitchen) run a little better lol. I cant wait to get my hands on this bad boy!! Happy 420 … oh and I’m currently taking your CCI class and love every minute of it!!
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 2:14 pmAWESOME! and I’m so glad you’re enjoying your time at CCI. I’m so grateful that this plant brought us together 💕🙏
Melissa Dopp
April 20, 2020 at 12:34 pmThis looks like the perfect item to own!
Miranda Athey
April 20, 2020 at 12:42 pmHi. Happy 420. Thanks for all the great info. ❤️
Ky
April 20, 2020 at 12:48 pmI am very excited to try this. Unfortunately due to the climate of the world I cannot afford to buy it at this moment but as soon s I am back working this is definitely on the top of my to do list
Albert
April 20, 2020 at 12:51 pmSeen this product in action.. results were wicked! Highly recommended
Robbyn Davies
April 20, 2020 at 12:53 pmWow I didn’t realize how much I was losing out on by not decarbing. I really need to get this machine and up my game.
Wanita Pelley
April 20, 2020 at 12:54 pmI would LOVE to win this amazing machine! My life would be complete and I could make my medication edibles so much quicker and with no mess or smell for days!
Dawn von Arnim
April 20, 2020 at 12:56 pmI’d love to have one of these. I use the old decarb in the oven, make oil in a double boiler for 12 hours. Makes great oil, but is very time consuming and needs lots of watching. This could make life so much easier…
Jenna
April 20, 2020 at 12:57 pmAwesome review! I know a friend who could really benefit from having one of these. Also very interested in the lube 🧐 Happy 4/20!
Jessica Rodrigues
April 20, 2020 at 1:00 pmThis review is a huge help! A lot of information to take in, but definitely worth the read! I could really use one of these in my apartment since I live in a small studio, and only able to use a toaster oven, and a hot plate to decarb and make my infusions. This would make it soooo much easier for me. I don’t mind having to hand wash everything, so that’s really not an issue. Thanks for the amazing review!
James L
April 20, 2020 at 1:09 pmWould love one of these!
MM
April 20, 2020 at 1:12 pmI have a Nova & just picked up an MB2 but I’m keening to see how the FX stacks up to other helpful kitchen devices 🙂
Brandy Landen
April 20, 2020 at 1:15 pmYay! Great review, very thorough and hits all the points I wanted to know and then some! 🤩 I’m excited to try the FX – who all needs a big sexy purple cannabis concoction maker on their countertop?! 🙏🏼😇💜🐉💨
Angie Allen
April 20, 2020 at 1:17 pmI still make mine the old fashion way, crockpot….I would love to own this!! thanks so much for all you do!
Terese
April 20, 2020 at 1:30 pmExcited to try your product! Can’t wait! Happy 420💚

April 20, 2020 at 1:31 pmI use the nova regularly , love it for now. Would be awesome to do bigger batches.
Janis Martinez
April 20, 2020 at 1:32 pmWake and bake is how i first heard about the nova lift and finally bought it 5 months ago! The new FX sounds amazing! Happy 420! 🥦🔥😙💨😤🙃😎👽
Kathi Phillips
April 20, 2020 at 1:33 pmI have a magic butter. The first time I used it I burnt the butter. Second time a friend helped me and it was better. Normally I just use a crockpot.
Joeee
April 20, 2020 at 1:40 pmThis is for sure on my wish list 😁
Terese
April 20, 2020 at 2:01 pmYou sold me on your Levo II review! So excited to try my new device! Should be here any day now. Meanwhile, I’m starting to think I might just NEED the Ardent FX🤔 Here’s to trying my luck🤞🏼Definitely going on my wish list! Happy 420💚
Yvonne Baier
April 20, 2020 at 2:03 pmWOW! I have been waiting for an all in one machine. I make mine in a slow cooker, decarb. in my oven and then bake goodies from there, It would be AWESOME to have a machine that does it all. I would die to own one of these, but cannot afford one. I make edibles for the sick people on our boat access only island. This would be PERFECT for me.
Terri
April 20, 2020 at 2:05 pmI’m still learning my way around and your reviews are so helpful. I appreciate your dedication to guiding noobs, like myself, and pros, alike, with recipies, science, etc. It shows your commitment to see us succeed. Thank you.
Roberta Winchester
April 20, 2020 at 2:13 pmCan’t wait to try one!
Melissa Cornwell
April 20, 2020 at 2:27 pmI have been looking at these for a while now. Am currently in a situation where decarbing is not an option due to smell. Would love to give it a try!
Rob
April 20, 2020 at 2:30 pmHi Corinne, I’m not sure what capacity the Levo 2 or Ardent FX have, but my diy decarboxylator capcity is massive…metal biscuit tin, inside tin foil lined carboard box, heated by heat gun controlled by adjustable thermostatic supply with probe in tin….I’d way prefer Ardent FX as it’s neat automatic machine, in my favourite colour to match my hair 🙂
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:49 pmPurple hair!You two would be so cute together 😉
Hana
April 20, 2020 at 2:31 pmThanks for the review, looks amazing!
Marianne Linehan
April 20, 2020 at 2:31 pmWow. What a list of comments. Thought i’d never find the end!
Aoife Hickey
April 20, 2020 at 2:34 pmLove this little gem of a piece
Kristen
April 20, 2020 at 2:39 pmAs someone who is new to decarbing this seems like a fool-proof mehod.
Aaron Duda
April 20, 2020 at 2:40 pmThis product looks so cool and and can do it all!! It’s on my wishlist.. please! Please! Please! Happy 4:20-4:20 everyone! Think globally, Act locally!! 1 love.💚💚💚
Old James
April 20, 2020 at 2:44 pmDefinitely something to consider ….decarbing your own takes awhile and makes a mess
katie kremer
April 20, 2020 at 2:52 pmI have the Lift, and acquired the sleeve a while back. My one attempt at making oil with the sleeve didn’t go very well, but i likely didn’t understand what i was supposed to do, ie operator error! How i would love to have the Ardent FX! I would buy one if it was financially feasible right now…
Question- the Lift was only available to me as i live in NC- would that still be the case?
Thanks!
Robert Peterson
April 20, 2020 at 2:52 pmI purchased a Nova last year after reading/watching your reviews. It has made the process much easier. This thing sounds even more amazing!
Talia
April 20, 2020 at 2:56 pmThank you! I have been doing extensive research on the magical butter machine and the levo. I wonder if this device is the best option for a 1st time user.
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:47 pmHands down, the best gadget for beginners. xoxo – CT
Michelle Dufner
April 20, 2020 at 2:57 pmLove that it has a separate function for CBD. Have I been burning off good stuff all this time using the nova for CBD 🤔🤔🤔?
Corinne
April 20, 2020 at 8:46 pmNope… one cycle does almost a full decarb of CBD. If you do two cycles in the nova, you’ll get an extra few percentages out of it. Hope that helps!
Kari Shattles
April 20, 2020 at 3:02 pmWould love to try this compact powerhouse! I have been a Magical Butter enthusiast for years, but would love to try one of these little guys, since moving into a small home in Amsterdam.
Derek Miller
April 20, 2020 at 3:07 pmLove my Original Nova and my MBM1 they are amazing! This review is so incredibly accurate.
Chandra Collins
April 20, 2020 at 3:12 pmFirst, Happy 420 everyone!!!! The Ardent FX sounds amazing! I’m on a fixed income so extra money isn’t a thing in my house! I’ve been saving all my change and the occasional $1 or $5. It’s been almost 6 months but I almost have enough for the MB2. After reading your review of the Ardent FX I may have to pinch a few more pennies and keep saving so I can get the Ardent FX instead! Maybe I’ll get lucky and win the giveaway! Extra blessing there… I could use the money I’ve been saving to really try it out! 😁🤞 Good luck everyone!
William Tolin Gay
April 20, 2020 at 3:16 pmVery detailed review and explanation of this device, and a really entertaining video!
Cheryl Johnson
April 20, 2020 at 3:18 pmI love kitchen gadgets! This one seems like a must have. I like that it’s nickname is easy bake oven 😊
Katie Kremer
April 20, 2020 at 3:22 pmThe FX looks amazing! I have the Lift, only because the Nova wasn’t available to purchase since i live in NC. I wonder if that restriction still applies?
Thanks for everything you do, it’s enormously appreciated!
Jeff Boydstun
April 20, 2020 at 3:28 pmI have used the MB Machines (3 so far) since they came out and i love making really good infused oils and ghee. This machine looks like the next logical step and I really want to try one.
cora
April 20, 2020 at 3:30 pmLove my Ardent but would love even more the FX!!!
Britt
April 20, 2020 at 3:41 pmThe FX looks amazing!!! I’ve only used the oven decarb method but I’ve been itching to try an actual infusion/baking device like this. I’ll have to give this one a shot!

April 20, 2020 at 4:04 pmWow the new Ardent FX looks like and sounds like the BOMB! Maybe a birthday idea.
Carin
April 20, 2020 at 4:05 pmI love my Nova, and learned about it here. So thank you! I use it to make infusions from high CBD flower so having the specific setting to maximize CBD would be wonderful as would the ability to make larger batches. Definitely considering the FX right now! Thanks for this super thorough and helpful review!!!
Marc
April 20, 2020 at 4:15 pmLove the Ardent, can’t wait to try the new one!
Madeilline
April 20, 2020 at 4:42 pmThank you so much for all that you do! I adore your work! Myself being in marketing and design, it is my dream to work for someone like you. I am full cannabis supporter and love making some of my most popular recipes using your techniques.

April 20, 2020 at 4:48 pmThis would be a great thing for my wife, who makes all of my edibles!

Beth Olson
April 20, 2020 at 5:07 pmWow this looks great.

April 20, 2020 at 5:19 pmWow, the Ardent FX seems like a godsend! It would turn my normally too long and experimental process into a clean cut science… I am looking forward to testing this out!

Marla Strother
April 20, 2020 at 5:35 pmI have the LEVO II but find it to small for the dose I like, I was decarbing 2 loads then cooking it in my crock pot or using the oil twice in the LEVO, this would be a much nicer machine.
Megan Runk
April 20, 2020 at 5:41 pmThis is an exciting new product! Thank You for reviewing it! I started following you a few years ago and love using your cookbooks! I make tinctures and edibles for cancer patients as well as people with anxiety and sleeping issues. I was so Thankful when the original Nova was made and I found out about that through you as well! I would absolutely love to use this new FX!
Keep up the good work!
Christine
April 20, 2020 at 5:42 pmI’m excited that this actually bakes!

April 20, 2020 at 5:45 pmWow the Ardent FX seems like a godsend! Ardent has turned part of my long and very experimental process into an exact science and I can’t wait to test it out!

April 20, 2020 at 5:46 pmThank you for such a thorough review! I had to read it twice lol
Cheryl Johnson
April 20, 2020 at 5:48 pmThank you for sharing your cannabis wisdom. The FX is beautiful!
Sheryl
April 20, 2020 at 5:50 pmThank you Corrine for all you do !! I had surgery to remove a cancerous lobe of lung last year . I always research every product I buy so much my friends always kid about if I actually bought it , it must be good,so thank for doing all the research for me as my time isn’t always plentiful! I have been medicating with cannabis , which has helped me very much with less side effects tan pharmaceuticals. It is difficult to go through all the steps and I always have a mess, but fun also. This product looks to be just what I need!!
Regan
April 20, 2020 at 5:56 pmThis is a great product review! I use the crockpot and oven methods for decarbing but never get the results I’m hoping for. The Ardent FX sounds so quick and easy to use! I definitely have it on my wish list. Thanks for all the great articles Corinne!
Ani
April 20, 2020 at 5:57 pmCool! Big!!
Jean Wright
April 20, 2020 at 6:33 pmGreat information! Happy 4-20.
Fara Maniaci
April 20, 2020 at 6:56 pmMy husband has been encouraging me to learn how to make edibles since I enjoy cooking and baking. I have read on the subject and am still trying to wrap my head around the science, but from reading your review the new device makes the process beginner friendly. Thanks for a great review.
Stewart
April 20, 2020 at 6:57 pmI’ve owned the MB2 for a few years now and the Nova about a year, love them both. The FX sounds like the perfect combo though! I’m going to have to gift the old to someone in need so I can upgrade. Thank you
Jerry Rogers
April 20, 2020 at 7:15 pmI love you. Your video was great I like the FC awesome gadget!
Thanks. Keep up the beautiful work.

Sara
April 20, 2020 at 7:20 pmEllo! Happy 420! I love your site and all the info within! Very clear and intentional and much appreciated! I just used my newly purchased nova and mbm to make cbd oil and it was so much easier than the oven and crock pot method.. Would love to do it on a bigger scale and having the option to do it all in one machine sounds great! Thanks a bunch! 😁🌼🌱

Julianna St Amand
April 20, 2020 at 9:15 pmGreat little machine, no cannabis kitchen should be without one.
Joan Gowan
April 20, 2020 at 9:18 pmGetting interested in trying this, would be easier than the oven method
Cassie
April 20, 2020 at 9:20 pmI’ve been comparing machines for about a year now and nothing has really got me excited until now! This sounds like an amazing time saver compared to my usual oven decarb and then stove top infusion method! Thank you for such an amazing and comprehensive review!
Stephen Peszel
April 20, 2020 at 9:22 pmI really need this, game changer, great recipes too.
Megan
April 20, 2020 at 9:23 pmI’ve had a Nova – 2 actually for bigger batches- for a couple of years and it’s so simple to use and I always recommend it to people that are uneasy with the decanting process! But I feel like I’m going to need the fx- if only just for the ease of using it for small and bigger batches and the infusing all in one!
Stephenie Morley
April 20, 2020 at 9:24 pmI want to win a free one. I would love to make oil easier. My husband uses it for all symptoms!!
Jennifer Carl
April 20, 2020 at 9:25 pmGood info, and I like the increase in options!
Phaydra Babinchok
April 20, 2020 at 9:29 pmI’ve been debating about whether or not to get the Nova or just stick with the oven method. My edibles are already pretty strong which is why I haven’t decided it’s worth the investment yet. I’d love to test them all out like you did though!
Mike
April 20, 2020 at 9:30 pmBeen doing it old school in the oven since I was just the coolest kid in high school… 😳 dying to try something new they will be a little more consistent and won’t stink up my entire house but just haven’t been able to spring for it. I’ve had one in my amazon cart for like 2 years just staring me in the face… gimme gimme!
Lisa Nichols
April 20, 2020 at 9:33 pmI pretty much love my Nova. I have a Levo II, but its hard to clean and the Nova is just EASY. This past X-mas, I would have loved the FX! I make 2:1 pain balms and had to do it 4x in the Nova to give everyone on my list a nice little 2oz jar. The Nova technology is just first rate and I can see the FX is the same only bigger! I need one!!
Jerry & Jayne
April 22, 2020 at 8:46 pmPlease tell me the min & max capacities of both? I’m trying to figure out whether to do the Nova or the FX.
Thanks for the info on Levo2. You saved me a big headache. Thanks so much!
How does one bake cakes in the FX?
What other or optional tools do I need?
Corinne
April 27, 2020 at 11:05 amThe liquid capacity max for the FX is about 3.5 cups and the Nova will fit 1 cup of oil. You’ll have to adjust this depending on how much flower you’re infusing. The only minimum is that you use enough oil or butter to completely cover the plant material.
As far as other optional tools, a strainer/french press is good for extracting all of the oils. I know ardent is making something specifically for the FX, but it’s not out just yet.
I’m JUST starting to play with that bake funciton and am going to be talking to Shanel about using it for baking here soon. I will send that out in the newsletter. Stay tuned!
I hope that helps! xoxo – Corinne
Jerry & Jayne
April 28, 2020 at 9:42 pmPlease tell me what minimum amounts we can process using it.
Previously, another W&K client has said the Levo2 is a pain to clean out after using.
So we’ll either purchase the Nova or FX. What’s max discount and code please? Just to make sure we have it.
Your Dazed and Infused is simply excellent. Confirms so much what I had learned. And I discovered new things as well. Things I can use and pass on to others. Is there any advice to adapting Dazed & Infused to Nova and FX?
And how does one bake a cake in one?
Corinne…the Cannabis Courtesan.

April 20, 2020 at 9:35 pmSorry I dont use instagram or I would check it out there as well. I would absolutely love to get an ardent fx! I help alot of cancer patients here in Canada with the edibles, oils, tinctures oh and cant forget the lube! Haha love that stuff!. The FX looks amazing and so simple to use
Shelly Gilbert
April 20, 2020 at 9:37 pmLove my Nova and my MB2, but wow! to have one device would be so much more efficient. Great review! Will be saving my pennies for an upgrade to the FX.
PS – thanks for the awesome website. I cannot tell you how many of your recipes I’ve enjoyed and how I much I appreciate all the info you provide. Thank you!
Erin
April 20, 2020 at 9:38 pmThank you for all you do!!! Cannot wait to get my hands on this guy. I feel as if it must be huge to bake as well?!?! I am also curious about the minimums so will be on the look out for your answer <3
Happy 4/20:20 🙂 🙂 🙂
Annette M Landi
April 20, 2020 at 9:39 pmI have used the oven and a tiny crock pot that has gotten lost in a move. 😩
Stephanie Cosenza
April 20, 2020 at 9:40 pmHi Corinne,
I love my Nova but it is cracked! I decarbed with it and I thought it was fine but when I infused my oil came out very dark. I’d really love to upgrade to the FX! 😎
Brenda Maksut
April 20, 2020 at 9:41 pmI love your site! I’ve made your Pain Relieving Cannabis Salve and everyone LOVES it! I own the original Nova. I’d love to see you make your salve in the new Nova FX. Thanks for all you do! You’re awesome!
Karen Smolen Zuchowski
April 20, 2020 at 9:42 pmI have the MB2 and the Nova. I like them but I do have to do the larger batches. I think the FX would be nice to do smaller batches in.
Tom Niblick
April 20, 2020 at 9:48 pmThe Ardent looks great. Cleaning my MB is a PIA. Might be a nice step up.
Christine L Wilson
April 20, 2020 at 9:55 pmI love my Nova… Can’t wait to get this bigger one!!
Sherri McKeithen
April 20, 2020 at 9:56 pmI am new to cooking with weed & I would love to experiment more. This Nova FX would make that so much easier!!
Kristin
April 20, 2020 at 10:05 pmI’ve been wanting to make edibles for years but I’m always nervous about screwing up oil or bitter. This seems like the perfect solution! I need it!
Rebeca
April 20, 2020 at 10:15 pmI have the original Ardent Nova and I LOVE it. It would be nice to have a machine that could make small batch oils/butters also
Sheila White
April 20, 2020 at 10:20 pmHappy 420, I’m still having to do it old school as I’m on assistance, so having do it in my oven to decarb and oil in the double boiler as I only can afford to do small amounts and its a large slow cooker I have and makes no sense to do just a cup of oil in it and I’d be afraid of it scorching on me as it wouldn’t even be an inch deep, and it takes most of the day, as I let the oil go for around 2 hours on the top of the double boiler because my advisor at the Dr’s office that gives me my script told me the longer I cook in the stronger the oil will be and it takes around 45 min to do the decarb using the new instructions they gave me the last time I was there, low and slow 250 for 45 min or as long as it takes to golden up at that temperature, but did find the last time that putting it on crumpled tin foil on the cookie sheet didn’t toast it as nice, but when I do decarb I usually do enough of each type to do the different types of oil I use, CBD, THC and a 1-1, and a high test one the second last time where it was 5 g of THC flower to 1/2 cup of oil for nights I’m having trouble sleeping and lots of pain, and the last time I did it I had 2 double boilers going at the same time one with THC oil and 1 with CBD. I then strain through a jelly bag and a bunch of layers of cheesecloth in my funnel into empty honey bottles that have the lids labeled as to which oil it is
Kelly Ashton
April 20, 2020 at 10:23 pmThank you for this review. I’m so excited to see what will work best for me! The FX does sound great but not sure if it’s too much for a beginner.
Kimberly Hinrichs
April 20, 2020 at 10:26 pmI need to share this great device. Thanks for the intro. And coupon. Hope I win though 😊😉Happy 420
Shondra
April 20, 2020 at 10:43 pmSounds like a great beginners appliance!
Marguerite
April 20, 2020 at 10:49 pmThis is exactly what I need! I am a medical marijuana patient and make edibles for myself, I have the magical butter maker and I love it but I want something I can make smaller batches with. The Ardent FX sounds perfect.
Mike
April 20, 2020 at 10:57 pmGreat review and contrast w the other products ! I’ll be looking at the ardent seriously from reading this
Barbara Penrose
April 20, 2020 at 10:59 pmI love my NOVA!!! I have made eight successful infusions into coconut oil. Then infused with chocolate and sunflower L.
Sam
April 20, 2020 at 11:01 pmHave been wanting to try making oil for edibles etc., but never had enough flower or knowledge to do it right. A device like the FX would be a great entry point.
Jackie
April 20, 2020 at 11:03 pmI have MBM2, Levo 2, and the Nova. I’ve stopped using the MBM since I got the Levo and Nova. They are a great pair. I’d love the Ardent FX to be able to do all the preparation with one device.
Carrie
April 20, 2020 at 11:05 pmWhew! It took a lot of scrolling to get to the bottom of the comments section! But I made it!
Happy 420!! I’d love for the 420 fairy to bring me one of these!
I live in a state with edibles that don’t work for me and I have now become a daily smoker, which I and my lungs are not happy about.
Having lived in Colorado until recently, I found edibles there to be an almost literal life saver in dealing with a chronic disease. Where I am now, they use xylitol, which does not feel good if you take too many 🤢. And because they’re mild, I always need too many.
So, with subpar MMJ and needing to get meds into me as quickly as possibly sometimes, this would be super helpful! Plus, I’m not the sharpest tool in the kitchen. Anything that makes life easier is always appreciated! 🙃😁

April 20, 2020 at 11:06 pmThis product looks awesome! I can’t wait to try it!

April 20, 2020 at 11:13 pmI’ll have one of these in my kitchen very soon. Your YouTube video made me a believer!

DeAnna Martin
April 20, 2020 at 11:28 pmBefore finding this Wake and Bake blog, I didn’t know that CBD needs a different decarb process. Edibles are preferred for my health conditions although I really like my Volcano vape. I was considering a Levo but the Ardent sounds perefect. I’d love to try it, thanks for the chance to win.
Jerry & Jayne
April 20, 2020 at 11:39 pmThis review does it for us. We’re new to this. I was planning to do the “thang” using convection microwave and rice cooker or double boiler. Screw those hassles. I agree with her. We’ll use the Nova.
What gets me is it’s hard to imagine the size in quantity. In appearance it looks like a tall water glass.
I don’t think we’ll do alcohol infusions. We do use a lot of coconut oil (omega 3 is anti inflammatory) as it tastes good no matter what.
As for sex lube? We got a bottle of First & Health cold processed grass fed organic ghee 50/50 with likewise processed organic grape seed oil. This is an amazing sex lube in itself.
We previously used cocoa butter suppositories I had locally made to order using a 2:1 THC:CBD. They had 60mgTHC/30mgCBD. You could cut them into three pieces. Oh holy shit. You didn’t come. You arrived.
I have all but (perhaps before a storm) eliminated my narcotics for chronic pain. My wife is down 75% thanks to CBD mostly but certain strains of weed.
This site rocks.
You go Corinne!!

I have a Nova, MB2, and a Levo. They all do there jobs quite well, but I would love to own the new updated devices. So I’m tossing my hat in the ring in hope of winning the new FX.

April 20, 2020 at 11:58 pmI’m so excited to try this!!
Steven
April 21, 2020 at 12:26 amI bought my Ardent Nova lift Thanksgiving weekend. And due to the holiday, had some issues. However, once it was all straightened out my unit was shipped & received very quickly and I love it. I have turned several of my friends onto it and they have since purchased one. I would love to get an Ardent FX and add it to my baking arsenal.
Tannis
April 21, 2020 at 12:27 amJust purchased the nova. But a fx would be spectacular
tina
April 21, 2020 at 1:03 ami love learning about new gadgets on the market, but doubt i will invest in any of them. I currently am a badged agent for state of montana and have a mobile ganja chef business that i did not start. a dispensary started my business 3 yrs ago after trying some of my lunch and snacks i brought to a trim session, then word of mouth got me 6 more dispensaries. i would hate to take a chance on altering my recipes.

April 21, 2020 at 11:47 amKeep doing what works for you! I love experimenting and seeing what else is possible, but I totally get wanting to stick with ole faithful!
Lucia Fellers
April 21, 2020 at 1:32 amI am way new to the Cannabis medicine call. I’m a medicine woman, Yoga Instructor (I teach Kinder through 4th at my local public school), Hypnotic Coach, and use many modalities to help myself & others achieve wellness. My mom has chronic pain, insomnia, and depression and her doctors are reducing her opiate prescriptions. She has had some historical negative reactions to THC so when I read about the way CBD was helping people heal I jumped at the chance to try. I started bring her CBD oil and immediate noticed a difference -her mood improved, she was able to sleep, her immune system seemed to be improving, and her pain was manageable. It was so expensive though. So I did what I do – researched recipes – went into a dispensary bought CBD bud -lol! I had NO IDEA how much an ounce of bud was!!! Ok – so I decarb in my oven and infuse in my crockpot. I add peppermint essential oil to my finished product because my mom doesn’t like the dank flavor and it helps with her IBS.
I sell the extra I make to my clients and it helps me support myself and my mom.
I’m so new I literally have not been able to make her CBD oil for 2 months because our dispensaries have only had THC CBD mix bud – and didn’t realise that I could order it online! Ugh! Did that yesterday! I’d love to add the FX to my home apothecary!! I would be able to provide a better more consistent product!!
Thank you for the review and your medicine!
Blessings, Light, and Love,
Lucia
Corinne
April 21, 2020 at 11:46 amYay Lucia! Welcome to this wild world of discovery with this dynamic and powerful plant! Also… not sure how much they charge for CBD at your dispensary, or what the quality is like, but a lot of times you can save money buying it online. I love Sacred Smoke’s organic small farmed goodness 🙂

April 21, 2020 at 2:47 amThis is a great review! I am also a data girl:)
Julia Casey
April 21, 2020 at 9:45 amI hit enter too soon or something. Continuation from above….. The FX could also use a beaker or sleeve, (I don’t have a dishwasher, so would like something removable). ANYWAY, awesome review looking forward to new recipes — any chance for some savory stuff? Maybe soup, bread, possibly more than one thing if you used jars? Like shephard’s pie, chicken pot pie, casseroles? Just spit balling here, you’ll come up with wonderful treats for us as always.
Julia Casey
April 21, 2020 at 11:02 amI somehow cut my review short. To continue…. The FX would need a larger beaker or sleeve. As for cooking, it looks like it would be good for making cakes/brownies, bread, maybe A cookie. Some savory options would be great, Maybe use jars to make things like chicken pot pie, shephard’s pie, etc….? I know that you will come up with wonderful goodies.
Nikki W
April 21, 2020 at 3:52 pmOk so I am super excited about the FX. I can’t believe it can do all of that and not take about a large amount of space.
Lu-Ann
April 21, 2020 at 4:20 pmI would love an FX I have 2 Novas

The Ardent FX looks like it would be amazing to have and a joy to use.
Justine M Bassani
April 21, 2020 at 6:30 pmThis was really educational. I know there’s a lot of debate about how long to simmer the oil once decarbed. I’ve been microdosing with coconut oil all day at home to keep the anxiety down during this crazy time.
Jerry Rogers
April 21, 2020 at 6:46 pmVery good job on the open box tutorial. Nice gadget !
Mike Kegler
April 22, 2020 at 8:07 amI had just purchased the Ardent Lift when this unit came out…………….damn!
The Lift is great. No more stinking up the kitchen from decarbing in the oven. I love it.

April 22, 2020 at 11:57 amseems easy, looking forward to trying this:)

tigerpond
April 30, 2020 at 12:14 pmThank you for the demo and review. Do you have to grind the decarbed flower before infusing it?
Corinne
June 10, 2020 at 9:38 pmHey! You don’t have to grind before infusing, some people choose to, and some people grind after decrarbing and before infusing. 🙂

May 20, 2020 at 4:32 pmAny need to use soy Lecthin? I always used that with the [email protected]
Thank You
Corinne
June 28, 2020 at 7:29 pmHey Steve,
In this infusion we use olive oil, so there is no need for lecithin 🙂
Allen
May 21, 2020 at 6:38 pmThey do ship internationally but beware! I live in a very small, remote location and Ardent uses USPS to ship. I do not have mail service in the town I live in so I had to drive 4 hrs. round trip and $50 worth of gas to go pick it up. The USPS hand off to Mexpost is kinda like peewee football. LOTS of fumbles.
jeff
June 25, 2020 at 8:06 pmwhat is the appropriate amount olive oil to use with the infusion of 6oz buds with flex fx? I remember a receipt of 1 cup for 4 oz, but the oil was not even i/2 covering the product. too much oil and reduced potency of cbd oil?
Corinne
June 29, 2020 at 4:21 pmHey Jeff!
Have you checked out our dosage calculator? It makes finding your potency easy! Just plug in your oil and flower amounts here 🙂
And let me know at [email protected] if you have any additional questions!

September 10, 2020 at 2:28 pmLooking for something to make edibles and tinctures. will the oil be like we get from the stores? I have read that tinctures use alcohol, is this an alternative. Please be patient I am very new to this part of cannabis use. Thank you.

If you are looking for a device to decarboxylate and infuse, we recommend the Ardent FX. A true tincture does use alcohol, as this is a great way to extract. We have tincture recipes and oil infusion recipes on the blog and in our ebook, Dazed + Infused.
If you are new to cannabis you might find our ebook Dazed + Infused to be very helpful!
Feel free to send an email to [email protected] if you have any more questions 🙂
