I need help with cooking hash brownies.

[DannyR]

Alright, just let me know if I've got this straight:

I grind up 5 grams of hash and put it aside, i then turn on a hot plate and melt the butter, i then add the hash in carefully and i let it sit there for about 20 minutes untill it's nice and brown, I then pour it through a coffee filter or something and there's my butter. I then mix the cannabutter with the brownie mix, put it in the oven and wait untill it's done.

Did i get that right? Please correct any mistakes I've mentioned.

My only question is this: how hot should the plate be? How many degrees? please tell me in celcius.

Thanks.:rastasmoke:

First off, theres plenty of threads on this subject already, and if you google it you would get a load of information.

But i will help lol. 5g of hash? or ground weed? how many boxes of brownie mix?

melt your butter in water, let it get hot, but not hot enough to bubble or simmer as this will simmer off your thc. when i do mine, i let it sit in there for around an hour just to be sure, but this may be unnecessary. i can not stress enough that you DO NOT want it to bubble. you should watch it pretty carefully to monitor this, stirring frequently.

once an hour is up, get a container of some type that you can pour it into. you should put CHEESE CLOTH around the opening, secure it with a rubberband or string or something. coffee filters are too fine, and the butter wont go through. make sure it's cheese cloth. once you have it all poured into the container and your weed particles are filtered out (if you are using ground weed, hash i dont think would need filtering) put it in the fridge. the water and butter will separate, and the butter will harden up. don't rush it, leave it in over night or somthing. once it's all solid, run a knife around the edges of the container to get the butter out, and put that into another dish. pour the water down the sink.

now you have cannabutter! bake it into the brownies according to the recipe. make sure you get brownie mix that uses butter, not oil.

...thanks but you didn't answer me on how hot the plate is supposed to be. This is the only thing i'm unclear about, everyone says "under the boiling point", can't someone give me an exact number of degrees?

you dont have to filter hash .....only weed... melt the butter at 37 C add the hash make sure you have 1/3 cup of butter or alittle more.

The hash will melt in the butter.... add to the brownie mix inplace of the vegetable oil

4 cannabutter , not hash butter I think this is my 3rd time asking this on the forums with no answer...(see Medicated Edibles sticky thread) WHAT IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A CHEESECLOTH? I've made cannabutter with regular coffee filters and they worked ok for me, just had to squeeze everything in it a bit to force through. It seems there are better strain methods but I don't own a cheesecloth or potato ricer. I have a metal strainer, plastic strainer and white cotton tshirts. Any help appreciated.

Found a great website that explains a lot.

Sigh...no help

apparently, 37 C as posted previous. sorry i couldnt give you a number, but so many things contribute to boiling points, its kind of trial and error. do you own a double boiler? because that would be best, one pot with boiling water on the stove, another pot that fits into the top of it that you put your butter in. the hot water melts the butter without boiling anything! perfect. and don't worry about the straining if youre using hash, it doesnt need to be strained. only if you have chunks of weed in it. i think you could consider steaming without boiling a good temp.

That website sucks, it doesn't explain how to strain or anything. Useless info.

You're right. The link is for brownies, not cannabutter. None of you answered me lol:thumbsup::hippy:
