    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    I suppose you could drink the water... I mean, it's not dangerous or anything. If you can choke it down, you've got a much stronger stomach than me!! Do you drink bongwater? I would assume it's a little stronger tasting than well used bongwater. Gross...

    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    I bake cookies and brownies out of the budder frequently at 350 or 375 and have zero issues with potency.

    Yes, the trim should be very dry and even decarbed for best results.

    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    I've been thinking about infusing coconut oil. I made a salve with a coconut oil base that wasn't edible due to wax and other additives for aroma that works great as a topical pain killer. If I just infused plain coconut oil, it could be used topically or in recipes. On another note, I'm...

    I use a full O and leave it on low overnight. It doesn't have to be 24 hours. You just want to see that oily sheen on the top as in the photos. The variable is the quality of your herb. Low quality might make 1lb of butter whereas I've made 5lbs with one oz of quality stuff.

    I'll work on a tutorial, but it's almost too easy to need one. Green Dragon has become my favorite over budder because it acts a lot faster and easier to get a good dose without putting yourself into la la land. Although, la la land is a nice place to be... haha

    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    All I can tell you is that in my 30+ years of baking with weed, I've never decarbed super dry stuff and never had a problem. I see what you are both saying and can understand why you'd want to, but I know a bunch of people that have used my recipe to make budder and none of them decarb either...

    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    Like I said, if you feel the need to do it, then do it, but it's not needed if it's really dry. If you're somehow making yours "3-4x" stronger, it wasn't really dry to begin with. You don't need to prove anything to me. FYI, I'm an advanced grad of Oaksterdam and just like to impart easy ways to...

    Cool man, whatever works for you. I've never done it and see no need, but if you think it makes it better, go for it! I would watch that temp though or you might do more harm than good. Enjoy!

    Hey, everyone! I've been gone for a long while and had no idea this post had blown up to 18 pages! I just read through it all and I have a few comments. You guys are all awesome. All of the ideas and tweaks sounds great, and in the end, you just have to do what works for you. I should have been...

    I don't think it was a significant amount of oil on their hands, just enough to keep things slick and moving, not sticking to their hands. I can't find the article, but it was facinating. The amount of hash they came up with from just walking the fields and rubbing the leaves was amazing.

    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    My trim consists of dried leaves that were near the bud, "trimmed" when a bud was trimmed. Often those leaves are just a sugary as a good bud. Fan leaves and stalks and such have little use to me, although I'm sure they contain plenty of trichomes. Actually, I read an awesome article on Afghani...

    I think you could add another 1/4 cup of butter and be fine. I've gotten lazy and started using box mix from the grocery and adding my own butter. It's all good... sometimes I just butter my toast or a bagel. Yum!

    Crock Pot Cannabutter for Dummies

    I've read several times on here about not cooking over a certain temp as to avoid baking out the THC. There is some merit to that idea, but only in theory. Let's break this down. -I have a brownie recipe that bakes at 325 degrees for 40 minutes. -Normally, you wouldn't want your weed to get...
