Hrm this is an interesting post and makes me feel a bit better. I've made 2 batches of brownies, 1 of which turned out pristine (excepting PERHAPS a heat issue i.e. overheating the butter+water+herb mixture), the other one was a bit messed up due to excessive oil used to grease pan (now use butter). In neither case did I feel anything excepting minutes after ingestion, which I attributed to placebo. On both occasions the butter and brownies smelled and tasted strongly as they should have and pretty much all indicators were there except for the primary effects. No one around that's down so I couldn't offer the brownies to others to isolate myself out of the equation.

Noteworthy item: I too have been an avid user of adderall, probably in 3 sessions, the last being the most intense but still falling within prolly 1-2k mg over about 6 months at the most. I haven't used adderall in over a year so I'd hope that has nothing to do with things but you never know.

I'm going to make a final batch of brownies with a crock pot to ensure that I'm not overheating and thus destroying the THC molecules. Afterwards (if they don't work for me again) I'll give them to a few friends and see what they think.

During the cooking process I did anywhere between 6-8 hours on the first attempt and 5 hours or so for the second round of butter made recently (went into the perfect brownies). I did see visible steam pretty much throughout the cooking process but the lid was covered and there was NO water movement except after about 45 minutes or so while I was stirring every hour. I cooked the brownies each time at 375 as directed on the box. The last occasion was a recipe I got offline (absolutely delicious brownies btw) that call for something like 2 1/2 cups sugar. Someone mentioned excess sugar interfering but I can't think that's right, if so how would brownies be an option? Other than that no special factors worth mentioning. All that sound right to you guys?
