Hello the other day I attempted to make cannabutter for the first time. I had followed a basic recipe but just tested out different strategies. The first attempt I made, I boiled my water and added 1/2 cup of butter and boiled until melt and then added 7 grams of a good ganja chopped up as best I could. I used a grinder but the bud was a little moist. After adding the ganja I put the stove on low and simmered it for 2 hours. And then strained out the bud making sure none got in the butter. After seperating the butter was a light green tint and smelled like the bud. I baked brownies yesterday following a betty crocker recipe. They were awesome and had a slight taste of bud. They got me high but not quite what i was expecting. After trying that out I thought maybe i didnt cook on a high enough tempature and not long enough and aslo thought the bud could be busted up a little better.
So last night I busted up another 7 grams(this time it was almost powder), I brought water to a boil added 1/4 cup of butter, 7 grams of nice dry bud. My first attempt once I added the bud I switched to a low temp, this time I left it on a high temp for an hour and then kept it around med for an hour, and then let it simmer for 2.
My result this time, The butter is a way darker green. I will be baking a cake later tonight. Will be eating tommorrow for thanksgiving.
