Okay, so tomorrow i have a possible chance to bake some pot (which i was thinking would be best in brownies). So i have this brownie mix, it calls for the standard 1/3 water 1/3 oil and an egg.

So i understand basically the process of making the bud into cannabutter. But i have 2 questions, i was thinking of baking like a half oz of bud (from what ive heard thats a good amount) into a 8x8 pan of brownies.

I plan on making the cannabutter first (then putting that into the brownie mix in place of the oil), but i only want to make enough butter to put in this one brownie mix. Ive read that you need like a pound of butter for a half oz of bud (is that correct?) when starting out with the cannabutter process (i assume there will be less butter after it's dont simmering?) so do i just end up sticking the whole cannabutter mixture into a single batch of brownies? Which would still end up being a lot of butter (3/4 lb or something?), (that seems high to me, very high. Like 2 much?). Or do i use less butter/bud when trying to make the cannabutter in the first place?

After simmering the bud for like 20 mins (time ive heard is ok) at that point do i have to take the bud out of the butter, or can i just leave it in? (id rather just leave it in, out of plain laziness).


Ill probably be making these if i end up being able to in like 12 hours so if i could get advice before then that would be great guys, thanks in advance for any advice.

Quickest method --- Cook the finely ground cannabis with butter on very low heat covered for at least an hour.
--- Strain the bud & butter into a large bowl through a METAL sieve (plastic mesh will melt) ---Press the bud in the sive to release all the butter you can -- Using the bottom of a glass works well as the butter mixture is hot and will burn.


Uset the amount you need.

Freeze the rest and store or give to a firendwho can also use it.

DO NOT INCREASE AMOUNTS in baking recipes. Recipes are like chemistry experiments -- Incorrrect experiemnts and the recipes fail.

Hope that helps.

Ok, well i guess my question is then.

How much butter do i use?

How much bud do i use?

I just want to make enough cannabutter to go in this one batch of brownies.

Also, since ill be using all the cannabutter after i make it. Is it neccesary to strain it? Is there a problem if i just keep the cannabus. id rather just leave it in there

Higher Logic

1 pound of butter, 1 ounce of cannabis, the quality of cannabis is up to you. You can leave the bud in I suppose, but the whole point of making cannabutter is to extract the THC and isolate it into the fat of choice, in this case butter. You might as well just chop up an ounce of bud and throw it in a batch of brownies...

To make enough butter for one batch, just divde 1 pound of butter by the amount you are going to use and do the same for the bud. So say a brownie recipe calls for 1/2 cup of butter, which is 1 stick of butter. Then put a quarter of bud in there.

You can use the same process with oil as you do with butter. Say an 8 x 8 pan of brownies is supposed to get four people high. Figure three times as much weed (or more) per person as it would take to get high by smoking it. Heat up the ground-up weed in the oil that the package calls for, over a very low fire for half an hour or so. Then proceed per package instructions.

Have fun!
