My Cannabutter

Hello Folks :peace:

Today I tried my hand at making cannabutter. I researched a bit and found all to be quite similar. Of course butter and coconut oil are different and to use water or not. But mostly say decarboxylate in the oven at 240° and others say 200° ( I did at 210° so I didn't blacken the buds and make my butter bitter ). For around 30 minutes. Shaking the baking tray from time to time.
Then melt butter in water ( some say bad idea to use water ) then add the decarboxylated bud. Simmer 3 hours.
My ingredients
75gr smaller buds ( not leaf etc )
300gr butter ( not spreadable )
2 tea cups water.

I simmered for 3 hours stirring slowly.
Then strained through a dish cloth and colander ( didn't have cheese cloth )
Then let room cool. Then placed in fridge to set. Took 2 hours. They say once set drain off excess water. I didn't have any excess. Simmered/steamed out well.

Tested. And yummy :P ( quite strong ) must make sure GF is aware of strength.

Anyone for some passion fruit chewies? Or Christmas Cake?

Ya, I’d say it’s good! Dab oil is butane hash oil. BHO. Real clean
Oh that's great. I was very patient ensuring not to burn any buds decarboxylating in the oven. Also making sure nothing stuck to the pot with the butter and water. Simmered for 3 hours. And stirred it for nearly the whole 3 hours. Not sure that was necessary.... But I did end up with no water to skim off as it had all evaporated. So maybe I did an okay job? :p

Cheers Mister

I just bought a NOVA decarb machine! I decarbed the nugs whole then grinned them up made brownies with a little 1/3 cup reg oil a little extra canna coconut oil and some lecithin powder and the 7 grams of straight decarb. Things will knock you on your butt! And the coconut oil mutes the weed taste they are yummy!

I have never made it before. I researched a bit, and all recipes/formulas were similar. And I definitely ignored the amount of herb they said to add. 10gr for 2 sticks butter ( about 200gr ) I thought that way too little. Instead I did 25% bud and 75% butter.
Seems like some girlfriends don't quite understand quantities non too well. :lol:
