Brownies!

[MrsDarkIdol]

Okay okay so I figure this question has been asked at least a hundred times....but....if anyone doesn't feel to annoyed about it, please reply...I need YOUR help! :D

Well so I'm going to make some brownies.
First, is there any way to make the pre packaged brownie mix into pot brownies? I hear you put the greens in the butter and mix that up really well, but the reciped on the box does not call for butter. Can I add it any other way?

Or do you think it'd be okay to add butter anyway?

So heres the golden question- how much do I use if I'm making one small batch?
I need measurements in tblsp or tsp please, having trouble with that.
If you add more then what it usually calls for will it go to waste or can they be made more potent by adding more?

If you've tried them, would you say the pay off is worth it? I've never ate MJ before but I hear it is better then smoking just takes longer to kick in.

THANKS FOR THE HELP IN ADVANCE!!!!

It was a joke, silly. Just because it's been asked so much. Just do a little search, you should find most of what you need, I think.

[somebody someone]

lmao. nah its cool i was only playin mrsdarkidol,

soz

[MrsDarkIdol]

Aaaahhhh! LOL
I'm a dumbass! But I got to laugh at myself so thanks :p

Well yeah I've been looking online of course, seems you can just boil it in water with some butter, and then strain it. I just can't seem to get a good feel for how much to use in measurements that I understand.

[somebody someone]

yeah i kno what u mean, measurements etc. are the hardest part. but i figured thats down to u! be generous with ur weed lol

[MrsDarkIdol]

and also I was kinda hoping to get some oppinions on wether it's worth it...is the high just as good as when smoked?

[MrsDarkIdol]

Oh yeah and I can't find out if I can make them with something other than making cannabutter since the recipe doesn't call for ti, or if I should just go ahead and add butter anyway.

[somebody someone]

lol experiment

[MrsDarkIdol]

yeah i guess so, I'm just gonna go for it, hoping to Gaea I don't waste a ton of weed lol

I've heard an ounce of green to a pound of butter. A stick of butter is 4 oz. 4*4=16.
So then it's a quarter (7g) of weed per stick. A stick of butter is also 1/2 cup. Most Brownie mix boxes ask for 1/2 cup of OIL per batch. I am not sure if you can just substitute butter, someone else would have to say. One batch of brownies makes "thick" brownies at 13x9, "thicker" brownies at 9x9, and "thickest" brownies at 8x8. Figure you do the 13x9, that's 117 sq. in. of brownies, divide that by 7 (for the 7g) and you get 16.714286. So thats roughly a 4x4 brownie for one gram of marijuana.

good luck! maybe try to make a small amount first time??

Just chuck the butter in, if all else fails you 'll have buttery browinews, notr eallyt a failure.

Whoot 200 posts.

And I wouldn't use water with the butter for making cannabutter, I would just use straight butter, and simmer for at least 15 minutes, but I've heard as long as 2 hours. Also, does anyone know if you could just use oil instead of butter? Or would the oil not absorb the thc as much. And also, I would imagine a fattier oil would be better than something light in fat?

Yeah, i guess the high when you eat weed takes longer and is much more intense. Don't eat the whole batch, eating all the brownies has made several of my friends very sick (they put 1/4 into the batch). To get high from eating, you generally need 3x the amount you normally smoke.

[oSillyPuddyo]

Are you sure that last comment is true? I have never heard that. I've only heard that 3x thing if your mouthsmoking...

Yea read it somewhere.

Here ya go Dark.

i cud beleive that, hash has never worked on me when ive eaten it.

eating is wasteful!

theres a reason crack is stronger than cocaine!

[phoenix]

Eating bud, not hash. And yeah it is..unless you have some magical giant pile of dank bud. :)

And what's crack got to do with this?

OOOH reminds me. We're on the topic of drugs in health..well, i'll make a thread. heh.
