(just spent 5 minutes being a dink) i'm curious what you would mean by a slow cooker.. a crock-pot kind of thing? ... It is possible, i will check and let you know. I made this 2nd thread to discuss the recipe rather than clutter up the recipe with questions. Any comments, suggestions or questions about the CannaButter recipe are more than welcome Bob.:stoned: Rating: 5

For the first time ever, I had edibles this past weekend. Oh! My! God!

A friend made chocolate chip cookies, gave me 5 cookies and told me to only eat one ( save the rest for later). I ate one cookie Friday night and felt nothing after about 2 hours, so I went to bed. Apparently I got the munchies about 2am and grabbed 2 more cookies, and went back to bed. Oops! I woke up Saturday morning about 7am, and I could not get out of bed! I soooo stoned. I didn't sober up until about 2pm Saturday. I've NEVER been that high, nor have I ever experienced a high like that....and I think I never want to try edibles again, lol.

Yeah, Nancy, you gotta be super careful about that delayed onset catch. I accidentally got stoned for a week one night. It pretty well put me off the idea too. So I have a couple pounds of scary butter here up for grabs... if anyone can give me a protocol for emailing it, they can have it.

Is there a quick and easy way to determine the Cannabinoid / THC levels of the butter?

We're looking at the manufacturing of Chocolate Truffle's and we need to control the amount of "goodness" that's locked into every piece.:thumbsup:

[rudy2010]

No. Sorry. Just determining the amount of THC in weed is difficult. Only a couple of labs on the West coast do this. You have to give a couple of grams and pay over $100 from what I have heard.

Can you use salted butter? Please explain why not if you can't.

[stormin94]

Also, is it ok to keep the butter at around 185 degrees, while simmering?

[rudy2010]

The answers are yes and yes.

As long as you keep the temp below 275-300 degrees the cannabis will be OK. The salt is not an issue. By the time you strain and cool the butter there is little salt left. I just use whatever I can get the cheapest at Grocery Outlet or Cash and Cary.

is there a easier alternative method to making cannabutter, off only like a half a cup of some leftover vaped weed? can somebody point me to a recipe

i want to just simply give this a try, a friend said he had a slice of toast with some cannabutter and it had him messed up so looking to try it out but like the stickied recipe im not looking to use a oz and pound of butter or whatever it is lol
