If you are using low quality bud, and you wanted to get a small brick it would prolly take 7g's if you got it laying around. I use several methods but if you want it quik you can do this. Put the bud in the freezer for a bit and let the thc freeze up. take the bud and grind it till you get it as fine as you can, my grinder has a keif screen, si I will shake the shit out of the loaded grinder getting as much of the tch to fall through as possible, then I will lightly rub the bud around the screen for a while. After you have done this for a while, take all the keif that has collected in the bottom of the grinder and pack it tightly into the celophane from a pack of smokes. Once packed you want to role the celophane as tight as you can get it and put a peice of tape on it, them take a peice of paper and wrap it around tightly also, now dunk your rolled paper/celophne into some water to let the paper soke it up, now throw it in the oven for about 15-20 on about 350, the water the paper soaked up will keep your good from getting too hot. Once out of the oven take it press it with a book or a dough roller, then pop it into the fridge to let it cool down. After it is cooled unwrap your good and smoke away! Hope that helps.
