Ingredients

• Cannabutter Recipe
• Coffee grinder
• A stir spoon
• Large Pot
• Butter 1lb
• Marijuana (3/4-1 oz )
• Cheesecloth, and some elastics
• A couple Tupperware containers with lids
• Grind the weed in a coffee grinder until very fine and powdery

Preparation

Step 1

Grind the weed in a coffee grinder until very fine and powdery

Step 1.

Bring about 4 cups of water to a boil on the stove top, it doesn’t really matter how much water you use because in the end it will all be separated, Just make sure the marijuana is always floating about 1 1/2 inches from the bottom of the pan.

Step 2.

When the water is at a boil place the butter in the pot. Make sure butter does not burn.

Step 3.

Now that the butter has melted you can now add the marijuana. Again make sure the stove is now on a low setting.

Stir occasionally, I tend to stir every time the mix starts bubbling.
Let simmer for 4-6 hours, But you can always tell it’s done when the top of the mix turns from a really watery consistency to glossy and thick. Some articles say the THC is released in first few minutes, nut I like to simmer it all day to be sure!

Step 4.

While letting the mix simmer, You are now going to need to get the cheesecloth strainer ready, which will also be used to store the cannabutter.

Take two sheets of cheese cloth and fold each one over so they each have two layers, place these over a tupperware container (with the lid off), and secure them there with elastics.

Step 5.

You are now ready to strain the marijuana out of the mix, place your tupperware containers with the cheesecloth lids in the sink and slowly pour the entire mix on top of the cheesecloth like pictured here.When the saucepan is empty carefully undo the elastic, pick up the cheesecloth from all four sides and squeeze all of the remaining butter out,
I throw away the marijuana after this.

Step 6.

Now place the lid on the tupperware and place it in the fridge to sit overnight, You need to do this so the water can separate from the cannabutter.

Step 7.

Now its time to separate the waste water!

The cannabutter should be on top, the waste water on bottom.


Take the lid off the Tupperware and hold it upside down over the sink, place a dish in the sink to catch any cannabutter that may fall, squeeze two sides of the Tupperware and the waste water will pour out, once all the water is gone your done!

You can scrape the underneath of the butter where there may be some residual weed.

If you are making a big batch then I scrape it off reboil the scrapes, and do process all over again.

I cut it in 4 sections...and freeze. (cookie recipe requires 1/2 lb butter)

Now I buy the Betty Crocker chocolate cookie mix in a bag, and nuts and about 1/4 cup oatmeal, and substitute the butter.

1 bag Makes about 23 cookies. Hide very well in the freezer! I feel effects for 6-8 hours!
