3.5g "keif" and 7.5g shake for 1 cup butter too much? **First Timer**

Discussion in 'Weed Edibles' started by nugs man, Nov 22, 2010.

  1. I am making a cannabutter tomorrow for the first time:smoke: And i need to know if 3.5g of keif and 7.5g of shake is a good amount, or could i split the two up and make 2 batches? I was told this was keif, but its not really, so i dont know how strong it is. What are you guys' thoughts on what i have? Mix the "keif" and shake and have 11g?

    the other bottle is 3g of keif and stems, but im not sure i want to use it in this.
     
  2. that just looks like finely ground weed...kief is golden



    as for recipe... I have no idea sorry
    someone will though :)
     
  3. the search button is a wild thing ;)
     
  4. that isn't keif... hope you didn't pay much for it since if you did, i'd think that you got hosed.
     
  5. Don't make two batches, just go for one. Strong is the only way togo with butter IMHO :devious:

    The amount of Pot thats going into your recipes is limited by the recipe itself, so inceasing the strength of a batch compared to your last isn't as simple as adding a couple of extra spoonfulls of butter; you may not end up with cookies but some pastry that doesnt cook properly (some reciepes it would completely fuck up, like cheese souffle)

    If you make super strong butter then you can control the strength of your edibles with "portion control" instead; Either by making smaller cookies, or telling friends that they can only have "half a slice/one piece" etc, becuase its "nuclear stength", and that allways sounds rad.
    You will of course have to be carefull testing the first batch :D

    You only have two options for those stems; weave a bird nest, or make oil through an extraction process (like BHO), but you'd need massive collection to make any usuable amount of errl (it's easier with Buds, half an oz etc).
    It's quite a technical and difficult process making oil properly (purging etc) and in order to make a safe product, while being safe making it, you need todo alot of research.
    If your intent on collecting them then there should be plenty of time to research the different methods :cool:.


    unkindone & ISmokeDaily the internet isn't just a refrence source for doing research by yourself, You can also use it to find out what you need through a process called " friendly interaction";)
     
  6. I think the first pic is of the shake not kief, and the second pic has stems on the left, then keif (the golden container) and then the shake on the right.
    It doesnt look very "shaky' though, far too green. Usually there'd be alot more pistils in the mix (unless it was from some really untrimmed bud, that didn't have pistils? .:confused_2:)
     
  7. I agree it doesn't look like keif, but rather finely ground herb.
    The thing to keep in mind with edibles is that the higher quality herb or keif you have the less amount of butter or oil you will need to ingest before you hit the roof :smoke: .

    Sometimes if you add maybe a quarter of kush or high-grade to maybe 1/2 - 3/4 cup of butter or oil, a table spoon would get you murdered :eek:. Depending on your tolerance to edibles of course.
     
  8. cool, thanks guys. Yeah it's not keif. That's what they advertised it as.. it was free, so im just going to make edibles with it. I know how to search guys, but was unsure with what I'M using.

    I'll go ahead and do one batch and let you know how they turn out. :cool:
     

  9. You haven't done anything for me! Did i ask how to make cannabutter? No. I asked for a little input on the amount of bud to use for my first time. Since I don't have just trimmings, I was curious as to also using the 3.5g of finally ground shake with the 7.5g of regular shake. Now you have wasted our time. Read before posting. Thanks.
     
  10. Ill put up to 28g in 1 batch ot brownies just because so ur fine.
