Man I need scales bad I got budder simmering with a 1 Gal. Ziplock worth of trim and small bud...
How much weed can a 1 Gal Ziplock bag hold???
I know my 5 gal crock pot is very full!!!
Guessing at least 4 ounces. You'll be able to dilute this batch 75% plain butter, 25% canna!

I thought you were going to the BBQ? That sucks. Hopefully next time. Yeah, the scale really helps. Trying to picture in my head how much that would hold. Picturing the amount I use, which is 300 grams, and I think it would almost fill a gallon ziplock.

Well the budders done and cooling in the fridge, I never put it in the freezer cause I'm afraid I'll freeze the water LOL plus heres
another thing I do when I strain.
I have a pair of knitted one size fits all kind of gloves,
I put a pair of Latex gloves over the top of the knitted ones
and wear those when I squeeze the cheese cloth so I don't burn my hands.

Man that was alot of weed.......

I read a tip somewhere to do an initial strain, put that butter in another container, and then pour boiling water over the hot trim to flush the rest of the butter out. Tried it. Don't get a lot more butter, but it's a real improvement over burning your hands wringing it out!

Got anything special planned for this batch?

I always wondered if it was worth the extra rinse, I do wet the cheese cloth before I strian with it
water displaces oil so I figure what the heck.
Maybe some cookies I'm getting real tired of Brownies!

Stay tuned on the cake, will be trying one this weekend w/the C butter. I've done this recipe without it, and it's really good!. I use the Myers Dark Rum, but Bacardi Dark is fine.

I'm waiting for the report from making it this week-end. :-) Thinking that much of of the canna butter we're all using would have everyone on the floor! Maybe make 2 small ones, one medicated and one not?

Sunbiz 1, is the American equivalent of "double cream" extra thick whipping cream?

Narrowing down the details. :-) Getting closer and closer to making this for our Solstice party! Just gifted with 9 farm fresh eggs, already have the Meyers... a message from the Universe? A recipe is as good as it's ingredients. This is a great recipe!

I've been making the straight version of this for decades. The kids love it without rum! They add more "mix", but it's for the sugar rush kids love. Probably adults would be happy with the water:mix ratio. We should all probably try it that way first...
