Green Solutions on 28th and N sell it. Also, just network with some folks at your local dispensary, they usually make their own. I've been making my own canna butter for a few years now. it's pretty easy to make large batches of the butter at a time. :jointsmile:

make your own. you can probably make 100 times what youd get at a "dispensary" for about 1/100th of their prices.

Note: To make a strong CannaButter you will require adjusting the quantity of Cannabis you bring into play in accordance with the potency of butter you would like. It is not compulsory to make weak CannaButter or reduce the Cannabis Butter percentage as you may feel â??no effectâ?� after youâ??ve tried the butter.
This recipe will make about 350g of medium strength CannaButter. Mind it that while combining the ingredients there will be a miniature loss.

Ingredients
- 1lbs of unsalted butter.
- 3cups of water.
- 1 ounce of premium, middle or high grade Cannabis (trimmings are okay, but not as strong). The higher you go in quality of product, the better butter it will be.

Well, now letâ??s cook!

To Prepare:

Start by grinding the cannabis stuff very fine. Grind the cannabis material very finely by making it coarse and separated. You have to use a grinder after very keen cleaning if you donâ??t have a dedicated grinder for cannabis grinding. Itâ??s very important to have good cannabis for use.

Cooking:

Place three cups of water to a covered boil. Put your butter in the boiling water and let it melt in the water. Heat is to be reduced to very low setting, once the butter is melted so when covered, the cannabutter will simmer gently. Now cannabis material is to be added to water and butter solution. After adding cannabis trim, keep mixing it along with fluffing it up into pan constantly so that the whole material does not stick to the bottom and there are no clusters. After making sure that there are no clusters position the lid on the pan and keep heat on minimum temperature.
Now itâ??s time to cook and let cannabutter simmer gently for 1-2 hours. This much time is very important and it should not cook for more than 3 hours.

After 1-2 hours have passed, THC will be combined with the melted butter.
During these 1-2 hours you are suppose to check cannabutter with intervals. To ensure proper heat temperature remains and not to boil the ingredients, this can trim down the butter excessively.

Extraction:
After above mentioned period of time, now you have to turn the heat off. Then let the solution sit for 2-4 minutes and remove it from the heat.
As mentioned earlier as well, proper cloths usage is very important at this stage.

Now itâ??s ready to get extracted. Place the cheese cloth over an open bowl and ensure that when the liquid is poured through the cheese cloth will not go with it. The idea here is to strain the solution using the cheese cloth so that you will not have bits of cannabis in the solution. Most of the THC is extracted by now. Once the solution has been strained through the cheese cloth and the material collected, you will have a solution in a bowl and cheese cloth full of soggy Cannabis material.

Extract as much as you can of the solution from the cheese cloth.
Solution must be removed as much as possible in the bowl.

(NOTE: I USUALLY RUN IT THRU TWICE. WHEN YOU RUN IT THRU THE SECOND TIME, BE SURE TO USE A NEW PIECE OF CLEAN CHEESECLOTH, DOUBLED OR TRIPPLED)

Cooling:
Now put the bowl of cannabutter solution in your refrigerator, at that place which was keep for cannabutter and keep it there for a few hours. As this cooling process is taking place keep a check on the progress and let it be there for the separation of fats from the water to be maximum.
Now you will be removing your butter from the bowl. As butter is solid now so it is recommended that you use heavy duty plastic wrap for it. Collect as much solid cannabutter material from the bowl and drain the excess water (it should look gritty and dirty). Remove surplus of water by patting dry the cannabutter. Now form cannabutter with the help of plastic wrap in a better size to get compressed. Store it in an airtight and freezable container.

The point of getting butter to freeze here is that it never loses its potency, so it can be used or kept for longer time. So itâ??s clear that melting will take place quickly once itâ??s warmed. Now itâ??s ready for you to enjoy!
Use of canna butter can be in things like to bake muffins, cookie and brownies. Keep in mind that when you want to have a lick of canna butter, donâ??t just cook it, bake it a bit and itâ??s as good as it was at the time of cooking.
