My cannabutter experience

[dbyrd26]

I made about 2 cups of cannabutter. I put about 3/4 of that into peanut brittle and also used the butter to make a caramel sauce to put on it. I used an indica strain so I think thats why this happened but all I did for 3 days was eat peanut brittle and grilled cheese sandwiches and lay on the couch falling asleep for an hour here and there. It was a good buzz but I felt like i didnt accomplish a damn thing haha I dont plan on doing it again anytime soon.

LMAO....that is just to funny!! I think I will leave that project until I am in one of my deepest pain area. I love stories like this; Brings back many memories of my young years.
Thanks for sharing it.

roflmao.....on couches! Do ya think they would get around to putting out product, or keep it all for themselves?....LOL

always wanted to make butter, i think after all these years i will try it, i was scared that the high would be to much but i think i can handle it.

What recipe did you use? That's a riot.

[dbyrd26]

I took a new pair of pantyhose and put about 2.5 ounces of leaves in it, then I added I think a stick or a stick and a half of butter to a pot of water, I then boiled it low for 5 hours with a lid covering it allowing minimal steam to escape. I squeezed the leaves so they were no longer dripping into the pot. Put the whole pot in the fridge and waited for a few hours. on the top of the water forms solid butter It was great just not productive haha.

I was done at the grilled cheese part....that just was too hysterical of a mental image!... someone laying on a couch(plaid), one arm draped to the floor lazily while the other holds aloft a gooey grilled cheese sandwich. On the floor next to him is a plate piled with peanut brittle...

I was just asking the guys at the dispensary the novice question about strain quality translating the same when made into butter. You just answered it CLEARLY. So that collection of samples that didn't work well for me will not become butter this weekend, lol!

i never allow a strain near my butter unless it does what I need it to. too much work preparing the butter and the smell wafting throughout the apartment building doesn't help either.
measure the weight of bud or trim you use in grams. then whatever amount of pieces of end product you want will determine what recipe to use, ie big batch of mom's cookies or small tray of brownies.
i use strong meds, i like my cookies to be 1 gram of meds per cookie, so I use one oz of ak47 into about 1/2 cup of butter, and 1/2 cup of water. heat but not boil it for 2 hrs to keep the butter well melted while absorbing all that goodness. then strain through a cheesecloth and squeeze the last bit of butter out of it. i then dispose of the remains, the leaves and stems etc that were in the cheesecloth. chill the mixture in the fridge, when the butter has set up solid carefully remove the top butter piece and there will be water left in the bowl. that can be used in tea or coffee or juice etc and it has kick too so start with a teaspoon per serving. the butter gets melted and I use 1/2cup per 25 cookies and get approximately 1 gram per cookie this way.
the cookie recipe is scratch from like flour and everything lol. and yummy
oh btw just before I add the melted butter to the cookie mix I add a few tablespoons of pure maple syrup and combined with cinnamon in the recipe there isn't a taste of cannabis in it.
