Cannabutter

I'm considering making some butter and I want to use a half oz of some pretty good medical. If I made a pound of butter with that would it be sufficient? Would I get faded or just catch a buz? I have a decent tolerance, I smoke around 3-5 g's a day.

I am wondering the same

I would just do the math on your recipe and titrate afterwards.

100 milligrams is about a standard pain dose for an average tolerance oral application and 300 milligrams average dose for a heavy tolerance person. If the recipe uses half a cup of butter and makes 12 pieces, you want 1200 milligrams per 1/2 cup. Heavy tolerance folks can eat more than one.

Oral consumption produces more of a sense of well being and a relaxed body high, than a head high,

Generally when I make butter I use 2 oz of high quality trim or shake per 1 lb of butter. If you are using half oz of high grade nugz I would imagine that should be enough for 1lb of butter. As per how faded you get that will be difficult to tell. Dependent on the potency of butter and dose per edible. WIll you be making large brownie squares or small brownie squares? KNowmsayin? Last batch I made I ate 2 cookies and was couchlocked and retarded for 24 hours. My girlfriend eats 6 and then goes to work and serves tables for 8 hours. My friend ate one and thought he was going to die. HAHAHA. Everyone's body is different and will metabolize in different ways. Test it out and wait 2 hours. For me it takes about 90-120 minutes to START feeling the effects.

If you smoke 3-5grams a day this butter should go a loooooooooong way for ya. Personally I don't think smoking tolerance helps at all with edibles. Cheers! Remember not to bake above 325f.

Oh ya. A nice trick for making butter is to line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and measure out 1/4 cup doses of butter and pour them into the cupcake liners and refrigerate. This way when it comes time to bake you have a quick and easy 1/4 cup waiting for ya.

I recently did a batch of butter and I had interesting thought. after cooking down on very low heat for 2- 2 1/2 hrs ( also ive never used buds for butter only trim) I notice a change, the stems and plant matter look bare, its especially noticeable on the stems.

i do an oz per pound of butta

Since you do 3-5 grams a day.
I would do 1/2oz to 1/2 lbs unsalted butter.

oz per pound of butter. put 3 cups water and your butter in a crockpot on medium and let the butter melt. add shake and lower heat too low cook for 8 hours stirring every 30 mins or so. by far the best butter you will ever have.(use next setting up for older pots)

It all depends on the quality of the shake you use. My friend, who runs an edibles business, switched her shake source a little while back and when she got it tested (in a lab - not by tasting, lol) the THC content was three times higher then what she was getting from her previous supplier. All shake is no created equal.
