Cannabutter Marijuana Butter

The standard dose for a pot cookie is about a gram of shake. If you're using trim use more. The way you figure that out is by taking the outcome of your recipe (36 cookies) and matching your dose accordingly (36 grams). Making butter is easy. I've sealed a croc-pot and use that to make butter but you can use a normal pot. If you use a normal pot just be conscious of evaporation and keep adding water throughout the course of the cooking time.


To make basic butter -
Fill a pot with 3-4 inches of water.

Add the appropriate amount of butter, followed by the ganja. Be aware that the marijuana has a tendency to retain some butter so add a couple table spoons more per oz then what you need.

Cover the pot and cook on the LOW for 20-24 hours stirring occasionally. You want the mixture to simmer SLIGHTLY but too much heat can degrade the potency.

Strain with a cheese cloth and let the mixture separate in the refrigerator over night.

Drain water from butter mixture and scrape off the nasty shit that marks the barrier between water and butter.

Let the butter warm to room temperature and use to bake accordingly.

 

Hmmm, sounds pretty good but how exactly do you drain the water from the budder?

 

Longtime lurker, but this is my first real post!

After straining through cheesecloth, put the water / butter mixture in the refrigerator overnight. In the morning the butter will have floated to the top and hardened, leaving the water on the bottom. Remove the butter block and discard the water.

I hope to post much more soon!

 

ah! perfect answer, thanks. +rep

 

well I only make I batch at a time. I add 3 gm fine ground hash to brownie flour. I melt 2 sticks of butter, add 3/8 oz finely ground flowers (yes flowers, I like 1/2powerplant and 1/2 whatever indica I have the most of) simmer 30 min, stirring often. Strain butter, add to brownie flour. Mix and cook as directed on box. I cut into 6 pieces. I get a great medical relief all day from 1 dose. I have high bloodpressure,2 artificial joints and am recovering from liver cancer. For me all symptoms of these conditions are well controlled by this dose. Its easy, effective, and faster than the double boiler method. Works for me.

 

I think that with a pressure cooker the temp attribute with low might eventually come to a point where it is cooking it too hot or too fast. I'd wait the 24.

 

There is a sticky right in the Edibles section...

Having used several pressure cookers over the past 50 years for other types of cooking I've had a couple of VERY SCARY moments when whatever I was cooking plugged the steam outlet! Very dangerous as the cooker is under very high pressure and the contents is HOTTER than boiling (212 degrees!).

So now you're forced to wait until the pot cools off enough before you take a chance just touching the thing. As far as I'm concerned, not worth the danger for the faster speed. Just my humble opinion, good luck if you try!

You don't even want to get close to burning the butter, past 220 degrees thc becomes gaseous, in other words, gone.

 

I may be missing something but how much time do u think a pressure cooker is going to save you? I mean mine is only on the stove an hour at the most. All the down time is in the fridge right? Or have I been doing something wrong all this time? Good luck either way, but I would suggest not using the pressure cooker.
