Crock pot cannabutter....so easy even a stoner can do it

[BHOJoe]

Sounds interesting, but I am in it for the potency, not the taste. I would not want to reduce the potency by half, but again, most people use edibles on an occasional basis and would get a pretty good ride from your edibles. I hate to throw the word medical around because I want everybody to be able to use it, but I do use it for medical reasons and potency is the higest priority!

As far as avoiding taste, the best way for me is to concentrate the magic into the smallest edibles. The Canna-caps are great, but I am still perfecting making those.

yeah, I make kief pills with cannabrex for that reason. But if I'm making cannabutter, I need it to taste like regular butter.

just made a batch in the crock pot,new crock pot,4 hours cooking time on the stay warm setting,2 cups of water,2 sticks of butter and a quarter pound of trim,came out green but not super green and smells great. definitely an easy way to make it without stinking up the entire house for hours

Afternoon Gang,
I just had to make some of this too satisfy my curiosity and see whats what. Had a paper garbage bag full of trim and what-not.......Took the time to run it all through a blender...ended up with 7 ozs...I did a cold rinse, as BHO had suggested..Glad I did...no pot taste whatsoever in the butter...Simmered for an hour and a half...Started out with 1.5oz for this batch...Made some Brownies, and waiting for the results to kick in...We will see...
Thanks to all for all the tips and suggestions...
Peace,
Treetops

Ended up with over 6gms..Used 2 and half sticks of butter for 1 and half ozs of grindings...

Golly gee willikers, i hope you didn't eat the whole pan to satisfy your curiosity and see what's what...if you did, I bet you were the what's what. ...I playfully tease.

People do tend to over-do it at first until they achieve some level of respect for just how very powerful that some cannabis infused edibles can be.
If one wants to eat the whole pan hot out of the oven, I suggest that one "cut" the infused clarified butter dosage down to a more manageable level with some fresh unsalted butter (or Canola Oil) to top off the recipes called for oil requirement.
A Glass Pyrex type measuring cup can make it easy to measure and incorporate warmed (slightly nuked) butter and liquid vegetable oil together.

There are some excellent Canna-Butter refinement tips and techniques posted here, I Thank You all for sharing.

I've been wanting to make some edibles for the first time. I've made firecrackers a number of times with great efficiency, great speed and a great high. Too bad they taste like garbage.

Im glad I just stumbled upon this thread.

I have a small 1.5qt slow cooker that I plan to use. Only want to make enough cannabutter for Rice Crispie Treats. It only calls for 1/2 stick of butter, so I will only use one full stick to start. (I'm probably going to use Cocoa Pebbles instead!!! YUMMY!)

Anyways, I was thinking 1 cup of water, 1 stick of butter, and my plant matter (A few grams of AVB, a couple grams of shake from seeded buds and 20 grams of dry male leaves). Ive read to put the slow cooker on HIGH for the first hour, and then on LOW for 7 more hours.

I may or may not do multiple water washes depending on how much free time I have to make this.

So whatcha folks think? Will a couple marshmallow cereal treats get me to where I want to be?

Figure out how much butter is going into your recipe. Once you cut the marshmallow squares into even pieces, count the pieces and divide that number of grams of bud.

So if for example you had .5 stick of butter and 5g of bud and that made 20 cocoa cosmic crispie treats.... well 5/20= .25. So in this example, each treat should contain approximately .25g of cannabis. (pre-cooked weight). If you would normally smoke .5g at a sitting, to get a similar effect you'd want to double that to 1g and eat 4 treats.

i've been trying to get high from eating weed for years, firecrackers, cannabutter, just eating it. nothing. closest i came was when i was breaking down a quarter i bought from a guy i used to work with and out of boredom i was chewing the stems as i was breaking it down. it was what you guys call shwag but it was awesome, i got a mild high from eating stems. i hadnt even swallowed yet, the stems i was swallowing the juice of course.

im about to melt a lb of butter with a shoebox of dried leaves i've been collecting for almost a year. lets see if its any different this time. gonna simmer in a crock pot for like 12 hours or so.
