Mr.Blue Reviewed by Mr.Blue on 09-23-2007. Making Cannabis Butter:Discussion. Well, first i wanna say sorry because apparently i can't merge or juggle threads properly today.. (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

i dunno if it fits in here best but....


wen u are making say brownies can u just use the box stuff? or do u have to make them from scratch? and if u use the box stuff wat do substitute hte canna butter for?

When I make brownies, I use betty crocker or something like it. They are just as good to me and a lot less hassel.

I go here for my oil to butter conversions and vice versa.

well tonight i put 14 grams of trim into 90 ml of olive oil (recipe called for 60ml) put the oil in the pan let it heat to around 300-330 (hard to get an accurate reading with a small amount) put in the trimmings witch where finally ground. After they simmered for 15 min i strained n made the brownies, ill post back how they where when i eat them.

I've looked at several Bud Butter recipes online and have to say, BobBong's seems the most comprehensive.

The only things I am wondering about are:

1) Pre-cook: many recipes suggest you pre cook your cannabis for five minutes in the oven before adding it to the butter (converts the THCA into THC apparently)

2) Cook Times: 24 hours seems excessive and this seems to be the only recipe I can find that suggests anything more than 2 hours. What happens in that extra 22 hours to make the butter better?

And that's it!! I'll be putting on the chef's cap in a few weeks and will report back.

How long do you leave the mixture on the heat for?

I take the clippings from the plants and boil that in water and add the butter then drain it and press out all the oils left in the leaves and such. makes great shit. im talkin green tinted butter.
