Butter Advice Please - 190u Green Kief

Like the title says - I just did a dry ice run on about a pound of frosty trim and larf.
I know I could have extracted MUCH higher quality, but I didn't want to spend much time, so I used a 73u bag and a 190u bag for a kief run.
The 73u yielded a bit over an ounce of blonde kief that rolls better than expected.
The 190u yielded 1.25 ounce and is a dark green color - This run is specifically for edibles.
I'm planning to decarb at 220f for 20 minutes in the oven, then I want to make butter.

Here's the question (finally!):
How much butter can I use for maximum concentration? My last kief-butter was a bit weak...

Baking both the 73u and the 190u at 220f for 20min.

Again, the tan colored 73u
will be bowl topping / rolled hash.
- I took a gram and worked it into my palm, squishing and rolling it until it visibly changed color and consistency. The result is smoother and has more of a classic "hash" flavor. Very stony, STRONG body high and numbing on the tongue (probably from the Herijuana).
Looking forward to making a big marble!

The 190u
is going into butter - just wondering how much butter to use for 1oz of "Forest Green" kief???
- so far I'm thinking of adding most of it to a pound of butter and letting it slow cook for 3-6 hours.
- I'm also considering trying 7 grams or so in 00 capsules. About 1g per capsule if my estimate is right. Should work since the kief is decarbed. Dosage TBD
- I topped an ashed bowl to sample the flavor and was pleasantly surprised - very smooth in every aspect - thick, viscous smoke, decent flavor (a bit "green"), and a nice stone that took about 10 minutes to fill out after 2 rips.

You should decarb at 240F for 40 minutes to get a full decarb. And decarb it dry not in oil or butter. Hash is good don't waste it.

As far as how much you can get it butter ?
Until it's sludge I guess, lol. For dosing estimate the strength in mg/gram. A wild guess on your lower quality hash would be 300mg per gram. Then estimate your desired dosage and add enough to satisfy that.

As an example for a brownie mix in an 8x8 pan that's 16 doses 2 inches by 2. If you want 16 doses at 40mg each, (a fairly high dose)16 times 40 is 640mg. If your hash thc is 30% or 300mg/g then 640mg divided by 300 is 2.13 so use 2.1grams of your hash for this dose. Hope this helps.

Ah - more water-weight than I thought...
-
I now have 24 grams of 73u and 30 grams of 190u - the house smells AMAZING! :weed:

Going to load a gram or two into a 00 and wait an hour or so (empty stomach).

**Follow up - seems I'm a bit of a light-weight these days - never hit "Post" on this, and I'm noticing a pretty good head-change after eating a gram of decarbed kief - ingest on an empty stomach about 45 min ago - haven't smoked since taking the kief.
