Hello everyone,

So, as the title says I am looking for a simple cannabutter recipe. I wish to make it with coconut butter/oil in a slowcooker.

Since there are a lot of recipes online I got confused about following things:

Measures - I would prefer recipe in grams

Should I ad water? In some recipes water is added...

Can I cook it directly in slowcooker or should I put everything in a glass jar and then in slowcooker filled with water... Like, people do both.

I would really appreciate a recipe and advice from someone who has experience with making this.

Thank you.:)

10-14gs trim or bud into the oven 240F for 40 mins, grind if its bud by hand with weed grinder. Not a coffe grinder or the like. In fact I would break bud down by hand. Details like that matter in end product.

Only gently breaking the bud down to a nuggy consistency like .2 or .3g nugs.

I put coconut in something like a pyrex or glass measuring cup etc on stove top on as low as possible. Just to melt coco and if adding lecithin, mix it together slowly to prepare for next step.

I add 20% sunflower lecithin of the oil by volume. So half cup would be 1.6 tbsp lecithin. Thats optional but its known to get people high that normally dont off edibles, I was one of them.

It may make it stronger you may not notice anything. Anyway, infuse in oven for 220F 20 mins. I really like these to portion the butter. Each piece is one tbsp.

Just strain it through a cheese cloth or so. No squeezing. I said be gentle in the beginning as I learned if you knock too much plant matter in the butter it can burn peoples stomach.

It happened to me real bad. So when griding up for infusion if its bud, dont over do it to shake. Make small nugs. I wouldnt grind trim at all.

So you just gently infuse them and run it through a fine enough filter like cheese cloth and toss in trash.

@medidedicated Thank you for the response. I actually have already made it. I used 6gr of cannabis and cup of coconut oil. I baked the cannabis as you described and then mixed it with melted coconut oil. I placed everything into a glass jar and then infused it for almost 7 hours in slow cooker. It worked... I ended up taking too much oil when I wanted to try the "product" and man... It was not cool. :lol: Lasted for 10 hours and between hour 2 and 5 it was "horrible". :lol: It was my first time trying edible. I took way less the second time.
