As Stinky asked, did you strain the plant material from the butter or keep it all together? If so, how fine was the material ground up? Stems, especially when ground really fine, can resemble small grains of salt or other crystal... but since it looks odd to you, I'm guessing that may not be the case. Unless you ground it up with your eyes closed and didn't get to see what it looked like prior to extraction :jointsmile:

As for the discoloration? What was the process described in the recipe? Double boiler? Straight stove top? Crockpot? Microwave? lol It isn't that hard to slightly burn the butter which normally turns it brown... but if it began with a yellow tint, that could explain some of the orange? I'm also not sure about color extraction. I'm pretty sure the typical green color comes from the breaking down of chlorophyll... but I don't think that applies for all shades of the plant (orange, white, purple, etc.) I can bet you like two smiley faces that Stinky knows though.

As long as the main ingredients were Cannabis, butter, and heat... it should be relatively safe for human consumption. Taste may be a different story all together. IF it was some flaw with the cooking vessel then I would definitely NOT use it.

Take a picture of the butter :stoned: Sounds freaky :hippy:
