This is a question I have about some add-on information, on a rather extensive recipe, given by a guy named chief chef. Here's the link.

Hey I saw the cannabutter recipe and I thought I’d share some really important tidbits…
I noticed the author didn’t include “decarbing” as the first step.
Decarbing is just drying your already dried weed out in a sealed container inside the oven, at a low temperature of say 200-250 degrees F.
What this does is turn inactive forms of THC into super potent digestible forms of THC (It’s guaranteed to your butter way stronger!).
I also noticed no mention of water-curing your buds before use. I soak my buds in water for 24 hours to leach out any contaminants as well as the super strong herby flavor.
If there’s too much chlorophyll, it can make the stomach upset. I usually do the water cure before I de-carb my material.
The water soak part can get the flavor of your budder down from super-herbally all the way down to UN-detectable and downright smooth!
Thank you, Cheif Chef, for helping all of us make better marijuana butter!
My question to you guys is should I grind the herb up before I put it in the water or should I leave it in nug form. Also what do you guys think of the water-curing method?
