cannabutter question

i completely understand how to do the whole thing, the only problem im having after doing all this research is how long am i supposed to let the butter "cook" i need a definative answer for optimal results. case ive read that too long and you'll over do it and it'll be worthess and too short will be the same result. so i was just wandering any input is appreciated...

It's not so much of how long as it is how hot. Too hot and you waste the bud but too low and you lose some effectiveness. A low simmer for about an hour should be fine - watch for burning but understand the bud will darken and get a little 'crispy' but it shouldn't burn. No more than 1/8th per stick - it's really easy to over do it when you're eating it. I put straight up ground bud into cookies that cook for 15 min on 350 and I've never had a bad batch. So if you apply that logic your butter should be easy. Have fun.

Dude, I make the cannabutter, my girl does the baking, and the clubs in the Bay Area wont sell our shit 'cause our content is too high! I take 1 oz, add 2 1/2 sticks of butter, 1/4 cup of water and put it in my crock pot on the lowest temp (not warm, but cooking), for 8 hours. Stir occasionally, unless you do it at night while you're sleeping, and strain after 8. I think that other people let it cool first, but I love the feel of my flesh melting! Make sure you get every last drop out!

Oh, if it looks burnt it's fine, get ready for a coma,though!
BTW, this leaves me with the perfect amount after evap for one bomb ass batch!

yea i read that thread and he dosnt say if you need dryed out leaves and stems or just fresh cuttings will work ...... i dont have any shake or nugs right now im just trying to get buy untell i get my first harvest thats going to be at least 60 days away i hope if every thing goes right......so right now im just trimming my mothers so they dont get to big and waiting.......thats why i was wondering if i could just use the fresh cuttings from the mother with no nugs or shake???....and how much do i put into the pot with a stick???....im guessing the more the more stronger it will be....then that gets me back to saving cuttings untell i have enough for bakeing or untell you have enough???..can you save them untell your ready in a ziplock ??? thanks for any input just trying to get this coooking down

You can save it, bro! Put it in freezer bags, then put 'em in the freezer! You can use fresh shit or dried shit in your butter, its all good!!
