kief won't burn up at that temp? Do I just do the Same as if it were flowers?
I have run dozens of kief chocolate bars using 250 degrees for 55 minutes...works like it should.
Flowers?I put them in a crock pot over night...for making budder.
Kief making is fast and easy with dry ice

my problem is this, I make butter and I then bake it into cookies or brownies, then i decide it wasnt strong enough,, Sooooo,, how do I test it before baking,, use a teaspoon of the butter,,, ? what would be a "sample" amount to represent say,, 1 cookie or 1 brownies worth of butter?:
I'm with you... It's important to know how much medication is in 1 dose or slice of brownie.. To me, there is nothing worse than traveling out of body because I didn't measure correctly. You're going to have to get more scientific.

Alternatively,
1 pound of butter = 32 tablespoons. If you add approx 1 oz of cannabis to one pound of butter, that's roughly 32 grams of cannabis to 32 grams of butter. So the ratio of one gram of weed to 1 tbs should give you a decent starting ratio..

What I have done in the past is use coconut oil. I add 1 gram of weed to every tablespoon of coconut oil. I know that if I consume 1/4 tbs of the oil then I consumed roughly 1/4 gram of cannabis. This is the safest and most accurate method I have found.

Disclaimer: I am not recommending dosages. Each person is different. Remember that you can always eat more, but you can never eat less.

I was lucky enough to get a very large supply from a friend's 99 plant grow. I had it tested once and it was very accurate to what I had been measuring the mg. What I did was take an average THC % of 15. Being that it was such a large grow of multiple strains, and giving an estimate that they ranged anywhere from low teens to mid twenties for THC%, I picked 15% for my measurement.

Now, given that 1 gram = 1000 mg. I use 150 mg per 2lbs clarified butter. So that is 150,000 mg. Now multiply that by 15% = 22500mg. That is 22500 per 4 cups of butter. 5625mg per cup. I get 24 cookies to the batch. So divide 5625 by 24 = 234mg each. This measurement is for un hashed trim. I dry ice my trim before I make my butter, so I deduct some mg percentage off to account for that, Giving me a 150mg cookie. Most of my recipes call for 1 cup butter, so that is how I measure it out when I pour it into containers. The dry ice hash gets turned into liquid gold :)

I hope I didn't just confuse you
I use this calculator. It works very well. https://jeffthe420chefcalculator.com/
