Cannabutter is the main ingredient that helps you add cannabis to delicious food. A butter product called cannabutter is created when cannabis is combined with butter. To make the cannabutter a success the first time, use these simple and easy steps.
How to Make Cannabutter
All you need is
- 1 Ounce dried cannabis bud.
- 2 cups of butter
Step 1: Grinding marijuana buds to make them as finely ground as possible is an easy process with a small grinder.
Step 2:Fill the pot up to 4-5 inches and boil that water.
Step 3: Melt butter in boiling water then add it to whatever you are cooking.
Step 4: Once the butter has melted, lower the heat and add in the cannabis.
Step 5: Let the butter and marijuana cook for 3 hours while stirring regularly. Make sure it does not come to a boil.
Step 6: Line the cheesecloth over a large bowl. Slowly pour the cooked mixture through it until all the liquid has passed through and no more stays on top of the cheesecloth.
Step 7: Discard the cheesecloth and squeeze any remaining butter out of it.
Step 8: Add the hot cannabutter to room temperature. Place it in a refrigerator for some time.
Step 9: After cooling, the butter will solidify and float on top of the water in the bowl. Carefully remove the cannabutter from the bowl and scrape off any water that has pooled underneath it.
