*WARNING – CROCK POT NECESSARY* (but they are so cheap at Walmart, come on now)

Hello, this is the only recipe for cannabis butter that I use, it is superior to all others. I’ve tried MANY other variations (I’ll get into that in the future) on every aspect, and this is the supreme recipe, I swear. I make a batch usually once a week during school time, they are very popular.

here's my recipe:

I use usually 8 sticks of butter and a LOT of trim, its up to you the ratio. I’ve used this recipe with just a few buds and 3-4 sticks and it still a total winner. That’s for y’all to mess around with. ALL of the plant should be used: fan leaves, fine trim, stems are optional but okay, buds, etc. just not seeds
the weed should be fully dry, never use fresh cause the butter will taste like shit.

grind up anything going in as fine as possible (i use coffee grinder)
(I use 8 sticks of butter for a half full crock pot of ground shake)

add whatever butter you want to put in (melted in the microwave first for convenience), then fill up the crock pot with water so all the weed is soaked, water is vital

Now the part that makes this work, don’t do anything other than this: 2hrs. on high setting, then 2hrs. on low setting, any other amount of time/heat is not right. This is the only way to make the best.

Stir often, keep that damn lid on (otherwise your butter will be ruined) except when you are stirring (every 15-20 minutes)

strain it into whatever container its going to chill in, i use a huge pasta pot.

use triple layer cheesecloth to strain through, then all the wet shake thats left needs to be rinsed well with hot water to get the rest of the butter out of the shake (don't worry, not getting the same amount of butter as you put in is unavoidable).

some put this final dish/bowl/pot/whatever in the freezer for 30 min b4 refridgeration, I just put it right in the fridge with a piece of ice or two to start cooling it down (it get fuckin hot)

then get all the butter from the top once its solid, try to collect any big floaters of butter, dont collect the sediment on the bottom of the pot. the butter stuck to the edge of the pot is the best of the whole batch, don't miss that.

Now put your butter in tubberware and its good for a few weeks in the fridge, or months in the freezer. Use it in any recipe either full of half strength. I make all types of interesting dishes with it. I will be posting them in the future here, as well as other methods/techniques for butter that I have tested.

I did this exact thing but don't remember if I kept the lid on.

I ate a brownie at 1:30 and I am not that high. I have a little ear ringing and eyes burning but no head stone.

I guess you lose thc with the lid off?
What a fucking bummer!

green fan- if you don't have the lid on, its just like cooking it on the stove (where steam is a no-no). but in a lidded crock pot, the steam recirculates.

tussel- right on bro, i'm just not a huge fan of brownies in general.

i will be outlining the dishes i make w/ the butter tonight!

great shit man, you have some excellent ideas i can't wait to try out.

I usually make giant batches of cookies and rice krispies with my butter, because that's what the people like... but my favorite recipes aren't so average, I'm into making shit like:

Caramel, it's so delicious i can't even describe it. really potent too and is made insanely better with fresh hash added dry in the cooking process. The best thing is just drizzling this on everything, esp on people's desserts unknowingly! it tastes better than normal caramel, so no one can tell.

Biscotti, covered in chocolate. great with coffee.

Croissants... that's all i gotta say about that...

Scalloped Potatoes are so yummy with cannabutter, and really fuck you up slow and hard.

Biscuits and CannaGravy, sure i'm already fat... so what this shit is just the best smell coming from the kitchen ever, and it gets you full and wasted all at once.

blueberry muffins, i hand these fuckers out early in the morning, best with ginger added to the mix.

Popcorn (duh)

Garlic Bread, do you know how much fucking butter goes on this shit? a LOT! the garlic really brings out the pepper of kief if you use a bit... iz awesome.

And... what else people???

Why no seeds? Is that just a taste factor? I'm fat AND lazy. I grind my seeded buds in a blender with the water. 4 hours is all it takes? I've read 20 hours in a crock pot. Scares me I wouldn't get all the thc that fast. I've always let it simmer in a crock pot overnight. I use a meat thermometer and let the cooked pot cool till it's under 130 degrees for burn yourself avoidance and strain with old clean cotton t-shirt. I've reboiled and restrained to get all of it but only get a tablespoon if that. Not sure if it's worth the repeating.

THC actually takes only about 30-40 min to be fully absorbed into butter, the 4 hrs just makes up for any it missed. overnight= destroyed butter, I've tried 6 hrs, 8hrs, 12hrs, a day, THREE DAYS before, and none come close to the potency and taste of the 4hr batch.

as for the seeds, there is no thc in them and they are gross tasting, but they're actually really good for you to eat. if its easier for you to use them i guess go ahead.

tshirt? a cheescloth is $3 at the grocery, it works better haha. and i never reuse or reboil my shake, it gets thrown out after the first batch. i do like to rinse it with hot water to get whatever butter i'm missing.

It may have hurt it some overnight but sure didn't destroy it. I was talking 4 sticks butter, gallon? water, weed in the crock pot on low and with lid. Do you mean ruined taste wise? I could see that.
