    hi there!

    Just wanted to double check my math/formula for MG in cannabutter

    1lbs of unsalted butter.
    I Have roughly 47 Grams of bud I'll be using. so lets say 45 after I remove stems. so at 15% THC per gram thats 150mg per gram

    thats 45Gx150mg = about 6750mg??? is that correct?
    there is about 32 tablespoons in a 1lb of butter so that would be about 210mg per tablespoon of canna butter. is that right?

    thanks so much everyone! I'll update this thread as I go through the process.

    Your math is correct except that you have not factored in extraction costs. You will get 100% of the 6,750 mg if you grind the cannabis finely, mix with oil, and incorporate the herb into your recipe. If you extract into oil or butter you lose 20-40% when you strain.
