I have 80g of single pressed rosin chips that i have just taken out of the oven @ 240 after 30 minutes. I have some coconut oil, but prefer the taste of butter and i dont think i am anywhere near approaching the maximum amount that butter can absorb. I was planning on using a double boiler and 2 to 3 sticks of butter. Would it be better to do this or just add water to a saucepan with butter and the ground chips, and has anyone had any experience with rosin chips and edibles?

ok, I started this last night. I used just under 2.5 sticks of butter, which turned out to be barely enough to cover the ground chips. Simmered for about 45 minutes in the double boiler, then strained through cheesecloth into a bowl, which went into the fridge overnight. Once the contents had hardened this morning, I was left with a VERY strong smelling result. i have since melted this down and added a cup or so of cold water, which is now in the fridge re-hardening up. Depending on the smell/taste of the results tonight, I may wash one more time before actually making anything yummy with it. I forgot to take pics of this mornings results, but will try to update with visuals this evening

I have finished the first wash, and am left with the first two pics. Going to take about 3/4 of that to make the third pic tonight. These should be pretty damn strong.

Wow, I can confirm this definitely works. I was shooting for really strong and was definitely not disappointed. This made 16 small <2x2 squares. I ate one of them around 1pm and now have absolutely zero doubts about whether edibles actually 'work' for me or not. Whewwweeee this is fun trying to type, will return later!
