cooking your bud into oil is going to stink up the house something fierce. You can try to run a carbon filter or ozone generator to mask the smell. Or a shitload of glade plugins. But bottom line is that it's going to smell.

I usually cook 2oz of shake/trim into a bottle (liter?) of olive oil. Add some water into the mix, too, because water will burn off first so you wont be losing as much thc during the cook. cook it on low for a few hours. Some people say 24 hours, some people say 1. I usually go 2 or 3.

Afterwards, pour the mix through a strainer. Wring all of the oil out of the weed chunks. You can do this with a spoon pressing against the strainer. put the oil back in the jar, and stick it in the fridge. The oil should start to solidify after a while and you can separate it from the excess water (if you didnt burn all the water off in the cook).

Then dump a bunch of oil into some brownie mix. Or if you're a real man, just eat a tablespoon full of oil.

It's best to make sure your pots all dry before you do this. dont be too impatient

Grind the product and place in cheese cloth to make something like a tea bag (tied off, twisty-tie, etc). Bring water to a boil on the stove in a medium or large pot. Place weed bag and desired fat into mason jar with lid. Tighten. Place mason jar in boiling water. Let it infuse, the longer the better - probably at least one hour, with water at a rolling boil (minimally simmering). The jar doesn't need to be totally submerged, but if it is... sweet. Remove jar, let cool to handle. Take out weed bag and squeeze trapped fat. Bag can be saved for topical use, but I throw that shit out. No smell. No silly filtration. I do this with "already been vap'ed weed" and it makes a reliably strong product.

*for cooking, make sure you return your fat to correct temperature, especially when baking. If using butter and you let it cool the milk fats will separate, if you pour it off then you are left with a clarified butter or ghee, which doesn't bake the same way butter does! Stir that shit back into the ghee to make your butter the way your recipe calls for. Finally, don't over mix that batter... only a rookie serves tough baked goods (I do mean batter, not butter, as butter can't be over mixed...)

There is no way to hide the smell when making oil or butter. Trust me I've Tryed everything. It smells up every room. And I have a fairly big house. Still smell in in the bathroom (as a read) :weed:

Youll want to Dry the Herb being used first .. Trust me there youll be glad you did .. Use an oven at 180 F and allow the material to become fully dry ...

Buttter stinks no matter , its more green and putrid smelling with leafy material .. I have found that Sour Kraut or Boiling a brine can keep the odor low but nothing will hide it entirely ..

Have fun and dont bake any medibles at temps over 300 F

220f is where I like to cook at. Takes longer but turns out nice. And when baking you realy need to watch it. For some reason weed butter burns fast.

I don't understand. Why are people still saying you can't prevent the smell in posts immediately after the post where I explained how to do so WITHOUT ANY SMELL. Use the jar method, the smell has no where to go, hence not having any odor.

You can make a weed pizza (infused in the crust, cheese, or toppings) and bake it in a 500 degree oven without losing any major effect. Why? The pizza doesn't reach 500 degrees or it would be charcoal. It doesn't even reach 300 degrees for fuck's sake, except the bottom of the crust that's in contact with the stone. I make baked savory goods all the time - like dinner rolls, bread loafs, muffins, you name it. It doesn't matter what the oven temperature is supposed to be. Think about it, boys.

BTW, I'm new to GROWING only. I spent the majority of my undergrad and graduate school days as a cook at various places. I love cooking - many of you surely know more than I about growing, but when it comes to cooking and mathematics I don't play games. ;-)
