make it.
Ingredients/tools:
1/4 oz of weed (~7 grams)
1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)
filtered water
a stove
a pot (or a crock pot)
an oven
baking tray
metal mesh strainer
digital thermometer that reaches 200+ degrees F (optional)
plastic tupperware (simply my preferred container)
Directions:
Bake your weed in the oven at 300°F for 15 minutes for decarboxylation (one of the most important steps! Seriously, it won't burn. Without this step, your cannabutter will not be near as potent as it could be!)
put ~1 cup of water in the pot on the stove and heat until it is boiling and then add your butter. You want to keep plenty of water in the pot or you will burn your butter. The more water, the slightly harder it is to drain later but it's totally worth your butter not tasting like burnt shit.
Add your decarboxylated weed to the water and butter. I ground mine up first but it probably doesn't make much of a difference.
Keep it at a steady but moderate boil at at least 200°F. Add more water if too much of it boils away.
Boil for 5 hours, stirring every 15 minutes or whenever it starts to boil too much. 5 hours may seem like a lot but it has been tested by the scientists at Cannalytics (which sounds legit) to make a relatively significant difference in the amount of THC that gets dissolved into the fat of the butter.
After 5 hours, pour the water and butter into the tupperware through the mesh strainer. I would suggest metal mesh over any type of cloth or paper because metal doesn't absorb oil. (Same reason you don't use paper coffee filters. It soaks up all the oils and makes your coffee tasteless and bitter. Seriously…you Folgers drinking motherfuckers are no better than crack addicts) Then use a spoon to mash all the leftover weed to squeeze as much oil out as you can. You can even pour more hot water through the strainer to get as much oil out as possible.
Put the lid on and put it out to cool off at room temperature. After a few hours of sitting out, you'll see the butter separate to the top and the nasty looking water at the bottom. At this point you should put it in the fridge overnight to let it fully separate and harden.
If using plastic tupperware, gently squeeze the tupperware until gaps open up to allow water out and pour all the useless water down the drain. Clean off the gunk at the bottom of the butter if you want. It's just watery weed gunk, not useful.
Use just like normal butter to cook with. I suggest using 1/2 cannabutter and 1/2 boring butter when baking as a potent but frugal ratio. I ate one brownie (16 brownie batch to half a stick of cannabutter, half a stick of boring butter) and was pretty amazingly blasted for 3 or 4 hours. Although it did take an hour to kick in.
