cannabis + butter + microwave = will it work?

[Pie_man]

If I were to put 3-4 tablespoons of butter and some weed in a cup and then microwave it, how long would it take for the melting butter to absorb the THC (and on what heat setting: low, medium, high?) Also, would that work well or just waste weed?

Will the smell be strong? My landlord lives in the apartment above mine and he's really strict on drugs.

Hello, I have never tried microwaving it, but i would suggest using like a closed container, or saran wrap over your cup of butter, this will retain the fumes and also build pressure in the cup and help absorbency. Please let me know how this goes as i am always open to new ideas.

Don't do it. You'll ruin your weed.
It will vaporize in the microwave.
You can't make cannabutter in the nuke.
It takes hours over a low heat.
Don't waste your weed.
