quick qooking questions* ;)

clever title, is it not? :P.

Quick questions related to cooking with weed. Ill get a few things out of the way first. Ive never cooked with weed before. Ive read most of the cooking thread and such, its just theres so many peoples opinions on the thread i still didnt understand what the dosage was if you were just chopping up buds and chucking it into the brownie mix.

1. Im cooking with high quality buds. Not "shake" or leaves, or kief or bush. Im cooking with hydroponic buds, which are pretty strong to smoke.

2. .. well thats about it.

My question is, how much per person is the dosage. Ive been smoking weed fairly regularly for a couple of years.. whats the dosage for cooking?

Say in a night of smoking with mates (that guy + 2 others), id buy 3 grams, and thatd be gone by the next morning, 1 gram each really. If i was cooking for me and those same people, would i put 3 grams into the brownie mix, if we intended to eat all of the brownies?

tl;dr how much bud do you cook with to get high?

KKK is not too cleaver lol, Hydroponic is not a bud type is a growing method/medium.

1g-7g per person pending if you wanna be getting off the floor. best way to do this is the boiling water method, do you need instruction or have you read?
 
AH >< haha, didnt see the KKK there. And as to the hydroponic remark, well i mean i have buds that have been produced that way :P. Not sure what the go is, but where i live, the bush weed grown in the sun sucks compared to hydroponicly grown weed.

Umm, i dont have a whole bunch of time so the only way i can really go about this is just chucking the chopped buds into the mix. Im a little untrustworthy of this method, but its all i have time for.

Unless the boiling water way is quicker? And if its roughly the same, then please give me a recap. The mega thread was confusing, unless i was making cannabutter, which im not.
 
Making Cannabis Butter

- 250 gram of butter
- 2 litre of boiling water
- 30 gram of course dry shake (aka trim leaf)

Cannabis butter is the main ingredient for most recipes with cannabis and IMO the best way of using cannabis in dishes.

Bring your water to a rolling boil, then put a small amount of butter in the water. Quickly, the butter melts, and mixes in with the water because the whole mixture is at a rolling boil.
Then put the grass in and boil it. (Of course, you will need to seperate all of the seeds first so you can plant them in the nearby park.) Now all the grass is riling around with the water and butter, and get this: The cannabinoids dissolve into the butter, while most of the nasty flavours and gook dissolve into the water. You need to stir the stuff regularly. After cooking the grass like this for a while (say, half an hour), your kitchen will really smell incriminating. Strain out the spent plant matter, squeeze all the juice out of it, and put the liquid in the fridge.

A few hours later, the mixture is cool enough that the cannabutter has solidified on the surface. It looks kind of scummy, but its just enchanted butter. Scoop it out and retain it in a bowl or a jar. The grass-nasty water is thrown out.

Now you can use the butter in any kind of normal recipe. Just use your imagination or your grandmothers cooking book.

PS. Maybe it is smart to start with more butter the first time you try this, so you are sure the dose is not to strong.

these sort of methods give you much more control on potency, quality and grantee's effective high. Chop the buds up fine & then you add them & try to not use too much water but use enough. Vague as hell from your point of view but use the recipes as base figure and do what you find works best. When boiling i find 30mins works if your trying to be quick 1hour is better to ensure u really activate that cannabinoid & then 24hours is amazing as well(nice neon tint even when strained). 7tbsp for 7g's of high quality is good for starters IMO.

I. A quick pot butter recipie

1) You'll need two pots of different sizes. Pour some water in the larger one and put butter in the small one. Now put the pots small inside the larger one and You're ready to melt down the butter.
2) After the butter has melted, add pot in the amount of Your desire. Remember, the more pot You add to the mixture, the stronger the cookies will become ;)
(Proportions example: 1 ounce of pot to 6-7 sticks of butter)
3) Simmer the mixture for about 25 min and remember to stir it every few minutes.
4) Give it a few minutes to cool down a bit and then strain out the butter into deep plate or a bowl.
5) Squeeze all the juice out of it and put aside to cool down.
6) Once cooled to room temperature put in fridge for few hours to coagulate.
7) Have fun ;)

Hmm.. so i could use cannabutter in the quick-mix packet brownies in place of real butter?

1 ounce per 6-7 sticks of butter hmm. The recipe on the box only requires like.. 3 tablespoons of butter, and 4 tablespoons is about half a stick right? Im buying 3 grams of bud. Soo, if i was to put all of that into a butter mix itd use like.. almost a full stick. My maths isnt too good.

Now that brings up another question, is 3 grams enough for 3 people? :P Doesnt seem like it will. Ive got time to burn tomorrow, so maybe ill make some butter.
 
thats what im saying, u can use the butter in place just use less water & 2table spoons of butter along with 3g's and your set & not taking a gamble as to if the it absorbs & what not. DO NOT GO OVER 315f degree's or else your precious thc etc. will evaporate out. 3g's is fine for 3 people have some faith but tossing that extra .5 if you havent smoked it couldnt hurt. personally i enjoyed making butter with the sativa heads from bubble hash 20micron filter it was a total mind fuck! Equatorial hazes would produce similar butter.
 
Well, strands arent all that big here in australia. We just buy weed :P
The recipe doesnt actually use water, it uses milk. So i wouldnt use less of that?

Also, thanks for the tip about not going over 315F, thats only ~155 celsius, and most packet mixes are like 180-200.

Last time i got a tip from bluelight it saved my mate from serotonin syndrome, now i get another tip and it saves me from ruining my weed! THANK YOU frosty! :D

OH, one last thing. Hows the dry mouth when you eat weed? The whole reason were eating instead of smoking is that my friend finds the dry mouth way too extreme, to the points of sickness. So do you ge tit frm eating, and if so, how bad?
 
No problem dude glad 2 see i could help.

dry mouth isnt much a problem when eating fine cannabis/hashish butter, your friend will be fine. It probably wouldnt hurt to gently remind him "pussy" though.

The best is eating a brownie or what not & being sober THEN noting the come up effects 30-60mins later you will be spinning. When eating pure butter on the other hand come up hits in 15mins(fun time on vaca & hitting the Norman rockwell museum).

I would do it how the recipe says, remember after the butter cools it becomes a plate/solid & separates from the water. This enables you to take it out & have a nice reserve. Toss your butter(3tbsp = 3g) in & stir the batter really well(maybe heat it in a toaster oven on 200f first so its melted) before making 3 giant brownies although i recommend keeping sizes small since eating butter really slows you down. Have fun & let us know how it turns out, the tasty treats only end up as potent as the marijuana used to make them.
 
umm may i just ask.

weedbutter plus vegemite on toast?!?!

Edit: i think it was too hot, the butter is black =/. Wil it still be good?
