Your definitely gonna want leaves with trichomes on them. Depending on how many you got I'd put some bud in with it.

Thanks Sasquatchstrain
Do you grind the leaves or how do you prepare them?
How much should I let the leaves dry?

Better Bud Butter has been a terrific hit with website readers and those fortunate enough to have a copy of “The Canny Bus Trip Kit” (soon to be released). It’s hard to improve on Better Bud Butter but we’ve done it.
Improvement number one comes from using European sweet butter. Regular butter is about 80% butterfat while European butters range from 84-86%. This may seem trivial but remember it is the butterfat that exacts the cannabinoids so a 7-8 % increase in butterfat will result in a more efficient extraction and stronger butter. European style butter comes from a number of manufacturers including Plugra from upstate New York, Strauss Organic, and recently Challenge European Style. Yes, the best still comes from France but it is exorbitantly priced.
Improvement number two comes from using a Braun high speed coffee grinder to convert all cannabis plant material from whatever source to a fine powder. The use of powder means the butter will taste more like cannabis as some of the chlorophyll and a few terpenes get into the butter. It also means a vastly increased surface area where the butterfat meets the cannabinoids. Using powder or “flour” significantly increases the potency of the final butter.
Improvement number three comes from using the best starting materials available. In this case Train Wreck, California Orange, and Pooh Bear trim were ground up and supplemented by powdered California Orange flowers. Using bud as opposed to trim will increase the potency of the butter.
The three improvements noted above resulted in cannabutter that is markedly different from the normal (and quite wonderful) Better Bud Butter. Black Out Bud Butter (BOBB) is approximately 2oo-300% stronger. The name BOBB comes from the fact that this butter is midnight green and will cause blackouts if too much is consumed.
Ingredients:
2½ pounds (six cups) of European Style high butterfat unsalted butter. I combined 8 oz of Plugra with 1 pound of Strauss Organic and 1 pound of Challenge European Style. Everyone has there own favorites but mine is Strauss. Strauss is smoother and less greasy than the others.
4 oz powdered Train Wreck Trim
2 oz powdered Pooh Bear Trim (a cross of Train Wreck and Salmon Creek Big Bud)
2 oz powdered California Orange trim
1/3 oz powdered California Orange flowers
Method:
The butters were melted in a covered crock pot set on high. The powdered cannabis was gradually stirred in with a wood spoon. The mixture was frequently stirred and cooked covered on high for one hour followed by three hours set on low. Stirring was accomplished every 15 minutes.
After four hours the hot mixture was squeezed through cheese cloth into a bowl then the product was filtered once more through cheese cloth. All available butter was squeezed out producing approximately 3 ½ cups. Theoretically, the cloth balls remaining could be re-extracted with more butter but the product would not be nearly as strong. Approximately 75-85% of the available cannabinoids are extracted on the first pass.
Here is one cup of BOBB in his new refrigerator home:
Note on Preparation:
No gloves were used in squeezing the rather hot cloth balls into the collection vessel. If you go barehanded beware of burns. Usually the ball can be twisted and held at the top then you can press the ball with the wood spoon against the side of the collection vessel. Once the ball has cooled sufficiently you can “wring” out the last of the cannabutter. Yes, this is messy but will leave your hands oh so soft.
Note on Amount of powdered cannabis to use: I use as much as will go into solution with the butter. This varies depending upon the cannabis and source.
Note on Potency:
I know this cannabutter is potent simply from the extreme effects produced from handling it. I look forward to using this super potent butter for the next batch of Pecan Sandies.
Made this a couple times and it really is not joke so be weary.
If you also want to refine it a bit to make it a bit lighter in color. Once its done put the butter some some simmering water. Then let it all mix together and put it in the fridge.
All the chlorophyll and other impuritys will stay in the water and since thc is not water soluble you lose no potency. Enjoy

Trimmings from harvest.. Should be dry enough to crush by hand.
Boil 4 cups of water add 4 sticks of unsalted butter.
Reduce heat once butter melts and add trimmings.
Stir on and off for about 15 to 20 mins at a low heat.
Strain through cheese cloth into a large bowl and place in fridge.
A couple hours later the butter and water will have separated.
Drain off the water and walla you have "canna butter"..

take your butter (unsalted) and put your bud trim together in a mason jar.
I use one stick of butter to 1/4 of bud and put the lid on the mason jar and throw it in a pan of boiling water for a few hours.
Strain the butter from the rest of the pulp and use that to make anything with butter.

Add 4 sticks of butter to wide mouth mason jar.
Wrap an oz of nice bud or trim in a double cheese cloth.
Take the butter in the mason jar add to boiling pot of water, preferable around 220 degrees.
Now when the butter is melting drop the ball of weed in the butter let simmer in water for about 6-8 hours, adding hot water to boiling pot when its low.
After its done drain butter into freezable dish, and squeeze any oil left in your cheese cloth sack (careful hot) and get all oil from cheese cloth ball.
This method is great for skipping a step on straining as weed is always in cloth in butter no seperation needed unless some material gets loose.
I uses 1 to 2 oz per batch depending on how much destruction I want to wreck havoc on.

What's your ratio of duff? Weed already ran thru the vape. Or do you not use duff?
I think I heard 60g duff per stick before? Just checking around
You need to search more thoroughly next time there chode master, I post a lot of quality posts.Congrats on a decent post for a change
Its just that the asshole and dicks like Trevor and yourself (same people same ip LOL) make it very little time to do so.

Dude you are a fucking retard if you think I'm the same person as Trevor.. Quit trying to act like you are smart enough to know how to look up someone's IP. You obviously can't lmao.
Maybe you do post a lot of quality posts, but really, after the way you've been acting in here lately nobody gives a fuck about your quality posts because you're a fucking dickhead dude...
Maybe if everyone puts you on ignore you'll troll somewhere else.

What is the purpose of the mason jar?
Exactly. Its by far the easiest method I found, JesusofCannabis told me about the jar method, then I added the cheesecloth ball and works effortlessly.
