MG-THC content

Hello RIU i am new to cannabis eatables and i know someone on here can help me figure this out. So i am looking for the mathematical formula to help me determine how many milligrams of THC i am putting in each eatable. I understand the potency of the plant is always changing and the best method is to send it off to the labs. But as a professional chef i like to pre-plan as much as possible. so lets say my bud is always 10% THC and my butter is always 24%fat. What are the correct measurements for maximum fat absorption of THC (and everything else). if anyone cares to break it all down for me...you'd be appreciated

It's easier to just weigh out the amount of bud in each dose becuase you don't know those factors. Checkout BadKittySmiles' stuff up top of this forum or on GrassCity. coconut oil is the best fat source except for MTS or whatever that stuff is called. Good luck

this is how I do it:

1 gram = 1000 mg

I use 150 grams trim to 8 sticks (2 lbs) butter. So that is 150,000 mg. Fill in with whatever amounts you use here. Take that number and multiply by in your case, you said 10%...so 150,000 mg x .10 = 15,000. So there would be approx. 15,000 mg per 4 cups (32 oz) butter, or 3750 per 8 oz. If you use 1 cup butter (oil, etc.) Divide how many pieces per batch into 3750. I get 24 cookies to a batch with 1 cup butter...so 24 into 3750 = 156.25 mg each cookie.

I hope that was not too confusing.

when i made edible caramelts, i assumed my bubble hash was 50% thc so if i use a gram per 10 caramels, thats 1000mgs x 50%= 500mgs/ 10 caramels= 50mg per .
 
thank you very much @fumble and @greenghost420 that helped a lot. sooooo just to break this down barney style one more time.....my one gram of 10% bud = 100mg of thc........1g=1000mg*.10=100MG-THC yes? then spread that across fat content so lets say 2 cups butter. that two cups butter will have 100mg total.......................now @fumble is there a point where your loosing THC content. you use 2lbs for 150G of bud....lets say you wanted to make 1000mg cookies could you just up the amount of cannabis, or at some point does the butter (any fat) stop absorbing the THC,CBD ect?
