Most is lost in the Mash and Cheese Cloth...

Once you strained Mash and squeezed the Cheese Cloth, replace Mash, Cheese Cloth over catch basin and slowly pour 4 to 8 cups 212* water over mash to flush, then squeeze again...
ZZTops Reviewed by ZZTops on . losing butter i am new to making cannabutter but have been having great success at it. i am wondering why it is that i will use 2lb of butter to make a batch but after straining and pressing the plant material and cleaning the butter, i seem to end up with only a little over 1lb of cannabutter. where is my other 1lb going? i don't expect to get the whole 2lbs but did not expect to lose HALF. any pointers?
