i cooked the weed till the oil looked like dark dark dark brown...then took it off. you want the oil to a have little bubbles rising from the bottom. I used about a quarter between 2 batches, I cutt each batch into 14 equal brownies. I sold the brownies for like 10$ and everyone fucking loved them. I ate about a whole batch to myself over a couple days...your high for like 4 hours.
