I wash cannabutter or coconut oil three times to help get rid of the smell in the oil. I also take 2lbs of butter, heat to 150 or so and only use the clarified butter that results. I toss all the milk solids....it tends to taste funny. I usually use 40 grams or so of the best pot I can find, the last batch was 900 per 1/4 lb. Thats about 200 more than usual, but miles better than usual. I made 70 cookies from 40 grams last batch....thats about .58 grams per cookie or about 112 mgs of THC per cookie. I also had great luck making caramels as well...you can hardy taste the maryjane in the treat. Also always use lecithin in the treats.....it gives a kick, hard, quick to the head, but its about 2/3 as long a buzz. The caramels had too much THC....about 175mg per caramel....two is too many!
DrDJM Reviewed by DrDJM on . How I make 'clean' cannabutter- a tutorial I like to turn my 'popcorn buds' and shake into cannabutter for making caramels and chocolate truffles. A problem with confectionery is the high temperatures that one needs to bring the sugar to before it is at the correct stage for making candy. Typically, caramels will be brought to 245 degrees F, and if there is any plant material or even excess chlorophyll in the butter, it will have a scorched and very unpleasant flavor. So this is a little tutorial on the process by which I make my Rating: 5
