2 sticks should leave you with about 1.8 - 1.9 sticks of butter when you're done.
holy shit terp.... just weighed the butter... a little under 8oz's... or just about 1.9 sticks...

This is actually what I initially thought when I first tried the water extractions.
Rest assured, the high is not affected and nothing is lost.
My cookies all replicate the high of the plant used as long as only one strain is used. (Panama cookies have that signature feel-good Panama high, purple haze cookies had the dreamy, psychedelic purple haze high, NepJam cookies were smile inducing and mellow with a hint of energy, etc.) When multiple lines are mixed, you get the typical combination high you'd expect from the lines used.
But hey, don't take my word for it. Try it yourself with your next batch of trim and report back.
Zack - I leave my batches to sit overnight to solidify into a layer of butter on top of the water. Figure 12-14 hours to go from piping hot to solid in the fridge.
so the cookie mix I am using called for 1/3 of a cup of butter..
since I used only 1/2 the mix (to make 12cookies) , I used 42grams of cannabutter... unfort, I counted wrong and made only 11.. I was going to eat 1/2 a cookie to see the effect, but I ate the whole cookie.. tasted so good... so that was about 4grams of weed... i'll report back, as its only been 45mins..no effect yet
If you can type a coherent post after another 45 minutes, you did it wrong
coherent...
ate one at 530 on Thursday nite.. by 7pm, I bounced off walls to bed...the most unpleasant high I have had in 35/40years..
way/way tooooo much cookie... I was going to eat 1/4 of it, but it tasted so good ate a whole one... stayed high for 12+hrs..
I have 10 (made 11) left... very/very unpleasant.. mite just shit-can the rest of em... def a scary high...
I'd try 1/8 cookie nest, if I were you.
This matches my experience. I vape, smoke and eat and the high is very consistent by strain. Most get into me inside peanut butter cookies these day. 1/4 cookie every two hours and I'm having a great day! No odor, no lung stress.

Quick tip for added stealth - Put your trim, butter / oil, and water in a vacuum-sealed bag, then 'double boil' that in a crockpot full of water. Now your house won't smell like a skunk farm for 8-12 hours.
I wasn't kidding when I said stupid potent and borderline terrifying was I?
holy shit... u were not kidding...
On the upshot, if you cut the cookies you made down into 1/4s or even 1/5s you'll now have that many more cookie wedge edibles.
broke a cookie into 1/8's (about)... and it still put me on my ass... another unpleasant experience....
I must have a sky-high tolerance, either that or 1 of 3 things. 1, I didn't have good product, 2, I didn't cook it right, or 3, I need to eat more because of my weight (106 stones). Only 2 things happened to me, I got a major case of the munchies (ate more than a dozen cookies at a single sitting) and after waking up the next day I felt heavier and weighted down like gravity had doubled. But I still didn't think I was high or anything.

I think I gotta smoke it...
I end up with less than 1 gram of bud per cookie and eat 1/4 cookie at a time. You used WAY too much.
