    oh man bro . . . you shouldn't have added more butter....

    it's already hella diluted.

    to concentrate plant matter into butter, boil it with water. then you strain it and put it in the fridge and the block of butter will solidify at the top . . .

    I wrote up information on the ratio's of bud to butter yesterday . . .

    and since cannabinoids generally make up 10-15% of plant matter, or less, that means you can have possibly up to 12 oz or more of bud into ONE stick of butter.

    so you could have made it even stronger than you experienced.

    in fact, you can make it so strong that if you bonded it with a lotion of some sort, you could probably wipe a pea sized bit into your arm and get high as fuck like you smoked a joint .

    edibles are definitely where it's at, but they take a LOT of bud or trim.

    if you're using kief or hash, I highly suggest taking a shot glass, with a normal pan, fill it with water, get a ceramic tile and put it on the bottom of the pan under the water, then put the shot glass on top of it. you now have a boiling water bath.

    put a tiny bit of butter in the shot glass, only enough to fill 2-3 gelatin capsules. drop the hash, hash oil, or kief (if you're using kief I suggest you use a LOT,and I mean a LOT, I used so much and it hardly worked.) and allow this to boil for 25-40 mins.

    then put the shot glass in the freezer, and after the butter solidifies put it in the gelatin capsules, and voila, you have cannabutter pills that will get you ridiculously high if you take them all at once .

    Well it was only a stick and a half, I figured wed loose some in the process, and it wasnt really mixing well with the 63g and a stick and a quarter....


    I just strained it like an hour ago... Going to give it like 4 hours to cool off

    Dont rely on this guys ratio nothing against him all the science is there and blah blah.
    I use about an 8th of good bud per 1/4 cup of butter so like per half stick.
    and anything i end up making with it fucks people up good and proper.
    so if your dreg is at least a little bit potent. 63g's in a lil over a stick will be plenty to get ya fucked up.
    hope you had a good 420

    er sorry about my ratio shit up there.

    the ratio I actually heard was for bud to butter, because bud is about 15% cannabinoid material, you'd need a larger ratio like 5:1.

    anyways, I"m still trying to establish how much butter can actually hold, but the amount mcgyversmoke said sounds good. I just like to know /exactly/ how much I can put into butter.

    Talking

    An update on this:


    Sorry it took so long I had to do a little googling to find this thread...

    It solidified in like 3 hours, and it was a very very dark hemp green color...

    We used the ghiradelli (sp.) chocolate brownie mix, it was like a buck more but I thought the rich chocolate would go well...


    It actually tasted very good! A mix of that dry vaped herb smell, and RICH RICH chocolate brownies. but ohhh man did that shit STINK when you opened the door... we looked in the crock pot and it was just a black muck boiling... smelled rancid when it was hot but smelled like regular vaped herb when it cooled down.


    As for the effects, god damn... I was blitzed for like 5 hours, and hallucinating when I closed my eyes... some of the chillest hallucinations ever.

    I think we have some left :P my friend ended up cutting 12 pieces with the stick and a quarter of butter

    Yeah dude just leave some potency in there

    I think the vaped bud my friend had was pretty low in potentcy though id use like 45g for some decent chill out brownies and then like 65g-70g for a really heavy stone...



    Thats the mix I used, I just melted some butter in a metal pan, mixed the mix in there with it, and then put it into a glass pan and into the oven
