Edibles How much to make out of 1/2 lb butter

I usually use 1-1.5 ounces of dried plant trim to make butter(1/2 lb or 2 sticks) and never learn my lesson - usually about 1/4 of flower thrown in too. It always ends up being extremely potent and I can never get the cookies to be small enough to make dosing easier. I thought I was just a lightweight cause I don’t smoke and hardly do edibles anymore. But even my most seasoned friends think I’m trying to kill them every time I make a batch and tell them “I don’t think they’re as strong this time” lol

Is 1.5 oz for 1/2 lb too much? The plants the trim comes from are really, really good plants that produce amazing bud. Not sure what kind it is, I’ve just been growing it by the garden full ever since my neighbor came over with a couple of clones a decade ago and he’s been back with more every year since.

I always make chocolate chip cookies, maybe I’m just bad at making them small? I usually go by the recommended 1” balls the packages say to do, then rip them in half and end up with a ton of cookies, not sure how many it makes exactly. I’ve been skeptical on making them smaller as I feel they won’t cook right or will just burn - any input on less than 1/2” cookies? Lol

Is it alright to add regular butter to the cannabutter to make it a little less potent, or is that going to fuck something up?

Any suggestions would be great. I know having strong ass edibles isn’t really a bad problem to have, but it does making dosing hard when I don’t want to get super fucking baked every time and even 1/4 of one of these bad boys puts me on the moon for like 8 hours.

Misunderstood and got my dick stuck in the hand mixer

But I looked up mixing regular butter with it and google OK’d it so I tried it, as well as making them super small. I’m either still gonna be super duper extra fried or I won’t feel shit off of one. Hopefully the latter, wouldn’t mind having to eat 2 instead of like an 1/8 of one lol
 
Making cookies is just unnecessary. It makes you have to eat a cookie to get high and it makes cookies taste like crap. Make the most concentrated butter possible and swallow cold like a pill.

But to answer your question: Diluting with regular butter is completely fine and will not fuck anything up.

Google replied this querry in less than 20~30 seconds:

« Bio-availability vs consumption method (pharmacokinetics), for THC »​

The search results suggest that inhalation wins at 10~35 %, then sublingual and suppository doses appear to share some common aspect rating them near the 12~35 % vs 20~30 % ranges respectively. Then it finally mentions edibles at 4~20 %. YMMV of course.

One tricky question we might ask is how much a buzz is that?? Measured in $$$ per subjective level of effect (over duration), on top of action speed... Plus, is such buzz even required at all.
