YEAH WHY THE FUCK NOT MATE....IM SURE YOU'D DO IT...OBVIOUSLY THERE IS GONNA BE A FEW TEENS WHO MITE SEND THEM SELF PSYCHO ON 3g.i know this is a harm reduction site.
 
My best cannabutter recipe and ratios for dosage!

Hiyas!

*WARNING - long, but informative*

I have smoked weed maybe four times in my life. Twice didn't work at all (probably not doing it correctly) and the other two times I just became a zombie...

So as you can imagine I wasn't real enamoured of the ol' herb...

That is, till I went to Nimbin (in Australia, weed capital of the country) and bought some "Rainbow Cookies"...

I tell you --- half of one of those was amazing. This slow high started coming on about an hour into it, and over the next hour my partner and I went through quite a few different 'stages'. It ended in wild monkey sex. Wonderful! ;) Not to mention the gorgeous feeling of the sheets when we went to sleep, and the trippy dreams and stupid stoned conversations as we fell asleep hehe

Anyhow......

I decided that I really enjoy that kind of high so I set out to make some brownies. My first attempt was ok, but the brownies made enough for about three highs each and due to the fact that they could 'go off' we had them over the course of a week.

More recently though, I purchased some good quality weed (Nimbin again!) and then searched the Internet for some good info.

I found a WONDERFUL site (will have to add it in later) that gives great ratios of butter:weed, and even better, tells you how much of a serve will give a high. For me I used: (this is in metric)

7g weed (about 1/4 once I think that equates to, correct me if I'm wrong)
180g butter

THEN I used the water extraction method. Basically I roughly chopped the weed and put it into a large pot of simmering water (not boiling!) for an hour. Then I added the butter and let it simmer carefully for three more hours.

After that - I strained the mix (throw out the weed, all useable THC is now gone) into a large bowl and let it cool. Then I put it in the fridge overnight...

In the morning, the butter was floating on top of the 'weed water' and I carefully removed that, put it in a container and popped it in the fridge. Being an infrequent user, I estimated that 2tsp would be enough for a high, but we've since worked out that 1 to 1 1/2 tsp is plenty! Takes about 2 hours to kick in but lasts a LOOOONG time - upwards of 4 or 5 hours. REALLY good feel. And the beauty of it is - the $50 of weed I used (remember, it was high quality) has given us enough for about a dozen really nice, good highs - that's for 2 people!

The beauty of it is tho - you don't have to actually bake it into anything at all if you don't want to. You can just take a teaspoon out of the frozen portion, melt it in the microwave, and spread on toast etc... the taste is quite mild. You can do any kind of cooking at all with it at this point but remember the dosage per serve so you don't give too much to anyone who might be new to it...

E.g. if you are doing a recipe that makes 12 cookies or brownies, include say 12-18 tsp of butter in the recipe - then you know an average serve is one cookie/brownie, or for frequent smokers maybe two or three.

SORRY THIS IS LONG BUT....

On a funny side-note :

After making the butter I had heard that it was worth keeping the water because it would have some THC content, although the saturation would be much, much lower than the butter. So that night, my partner and I scooped out 1/2 a cup each of the water into mugs. There was a little butter still floating, and we included that, but it was probably about 1/4tsp each.

We heated this water, added some Chai Tea Syrup and a dash of milk, and drank it just like a hot drink.

Well I'm telling you ----- it was WAY TOO MUCH! I have never FELT so completely and utterly useless. We drank that about 8pm, it kicked in maybe 2 hours later and all we could do was go lie in bed. I remember waking up at 2am, completely stoned, worried that I wouldn't be able to go to work the next day - I've NEVER felt like that before, and I really, truly didn't like it. I felt stoned still at work the next day (seriously!), was trying to sound straight to my staff, couldn't think straight, felt very vague ... and didn't start to feel 'normal' till about 2pm...

So there you go - will post a link to the site with the butter:weed:dosage ratios later but believe me - I did a LOT of research and that page with the ratios had the most highly researched info that I was able to find and it worked beautifully....

Mmmmm --- still have that butter in the freezer - most of it left - might have to have a teaspoon tonight on my favourite rice cake!!!

butter?

i just chopped down a plant in my garden that turned out to be a male. after it dreid it came out to aroun d 2 ounces of fan leaf and stem. i was wondering if it would be worth making butter out of it and if so how much butter should i make out of it?
 
6 to 8 Litre (1.5 gallon) capacity boiling pot
0.9 kg. (2 lbs.) of butter, salted or unsalted
Fine mesh strainer, or colander, or large coffee filter, or nylon stockings.
Large refrigerator-safe pot


1. Fill a 6 to 8 litre pot 1/3rd full with densely packed cannabis shake. Fill remainder of pot with cool water and bring to a boil.
2. Reduce heat and allow to simmer for 45 minutes.
3. Strain out water and return leaf to pot. Replenish with clean water.
4. Bring pot to boil, add butter and mix. Lower heat and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally (add water if necessary).
5. Strain out liquid into refrigerator-safe bowl using fine strainer, large coffee filter or even nylons. Squeeze butter out of remaining leaf (wear gloves, the leaf is hot!). Discard strained leaf.
6. Let liquid cool and then put into refrigerator overnight. Butter will separate from water and form a hard crust on surface of liquid.
7. Lift out butter crust and put into large mixing bowl. Cream and fold butter using a large metal or wooden spoon. Discard remaining liquid.

Butter is ready to use as is. It will keep in freezer up to 3 months. When baking with cannabutter select recipes with short, low-heat cooking instructions (like cookies) or else the cannabinoids will break down while cooking.

Products baked with cannabutter will take effect within 30 to 90 minutes from initial ingestion. For maximum effect, ingest on an empty stomach. Cannabis butter can have a very strong narcotic effect. It is recommended that you do not drive or perform difficult tasks after eating cannabutter products.
 
ghetto thc tomato bisque. get 1 can cambells tomato soup or tomato puree. 1 cup or cream, 1/5 of a stick of butter, 2 tablespoons olive oil, four cloves of garlic, 5 basil leaves, tsp crushed red pepper, 1/4 white onion finely diced, 1 tsp sriracha hot chili sauce. 1/4 cup locatelli parmesan cheese. about 2- 4 grams of bud. serves one or two.

in a pan combine cream, butter, oil, garlic, onion, basil, marijuana and crushed pepper. keep over med/low heat for 10 minutes stirring frequently. after simmering cream mixture add in can of tomatos. add cheese and hot sauce last. you can even add a little bit of crab meat and bay seasoning if you want too. its versatile and it definately works very well. and it tastes really damn good.
 
ight tell me what im doing wrong here...

my roomate swears his weed crackers are the best. he makes them with success. i have seen friends make them with success as well. i have failed 3x now, and wasted some good weed.

basically you preheat an oven to 420 degrees

get 2 crackers

get some peanut butter

get about .5g of weed.

chop weed up

mix into peanut butter

put into crackers

cook untill its charcoal

eat the wretched thing...


i have not gotten **ANY** effects from this ever. but others have, a friend was practically a zombie from it. it seems like such a convenient way to get super high off a tiny bit of bud.
 
I think the oven's too hot, Wood. It's vaporizing the THC, not activating it and letting the PB absorb it.
Here's my method. It really works:

0.5g good buds
8 crackers
Smooth, natural peanut butter (stir good and refrigerate first)

Preheat oven to 320 degrees F
Grind up weed or cut very fine with small scissors (like on Swiss Army knife)
Spread thin layer of PB on each cracker half
Divide up weed into four piles
Sprinkle one pile as evenly as possible over each of four crackers
Put other four crackers on top to make sandwich
Seal exposed weed bits along edges with more PB

Bake for 22 minutes
Let cool
Wrap in aluminum foil
Leave out of the fridge for 24 hours
Store for up to 5 months (maybe more) in Tupperware-type container in fridge
 
So I tried making butter.

I put a quarter of an ounce of finely chopped buds into 80grams of butter and simmered it for an hour.

Then I baked them into packet mix cookies.

It didn't do shit. Complete waste of a quarter.

So what did I do wrong?

Did I not simmer it in the water for long enough? Some of these recipes say baking it for like half an hour is enough, others call for five hours of simmering. What's the go with weed butter?
 
I don't know what happened there man, thats pretty much the exact method that I use and it always works perfect. It wouldn't be that you didn't simmer it long enough.


How long can you store cookies in the freezer for if they are zip-locked and air tight? Weeks? Months?
 
I made some cannabutter this weekend and nearly puked my guts out trying to eat the butter raw while it was frozen 8)
So I just dumped a big chunk of butter in a cup, put milk over it, then got it to boil in the microwave. Then drank that stuff, which tasted agreeable. I had to stir frequently because the butter and milk kept separating.
The high was way out there :)
 
Well, they did work in the end, but not as much as they should.

The way I worked it out each cookie would have had .7 of a gram of weed in it. That should have been enough to get two people stoned. I ate a whole cookie and got moderately stoned, about a third as stoned as I would have been had I smoked that amount.

Next time I'll cook it for longer I think...
 
I've never really eaten space cake because I believe the cake that you're gonna be making is gonna taste like shit anyways (I do NOT think cannabis has a pleasant taste)...

The only way I prepare cannabis for oral consumption is to cook a little bit of hash in an oil (olive, sunflower, whatever) until it is dissolved (you can do this in a big spoon or a small pan). When dissolved I let it cool down and then I'll put it in yoghurt, water, or orange juice and just eat/chug that shit (hell, u could just sip it straight off the spoon) , it probably takes even less time than rolling/smoking a J and it gets you high as fuck! :D
 
Weed Crepes!

so this is the first time ive gotten weed in a while and decided i wanted to eat some. I made up a batch of crepe batter(1cup Flour, 1/2cup sugar,1 1/2 cup whole milk, 2 eggs, 1 tbsp Oil, and 1/4tsp Salt.), and with every crepe i poured, i would add about a bowls worth of dank nug. I need this for 3 crepes.

What do you think? Am i on to something or did i just waste my pot?
 
that are great recipes but I have one thats by far the easiest one. chop 2 grams of weed ( dank, shwagg, whatever) as powderly as possible, then buy the butter that comes in a bar and with a knife cut half an inch and put in a microwabable cup together with the weed and cooked in the microvawe for 2:15 minutes. There YOU have your cannabutter, the easiest way to do it. yo can use the cannabutter with whatever you like, it takes like 30 -45 minutes for the effects to kick in, then you will have a high that last from 4 to 6 hours...any doubt PM me..

Hey, I'm going to ask this in this thread because I have been using the search engines for a while now, and haven't found direct answers for my questions...

Anyway, I don't want to eat it, I want to drink it... I know the basics of green dragon recipes, but need to ask about a few things.

I have a 26'er of 151 rum. Is it worth it to use shade leaf from some good fucking weed?, I'll probably mix it with the pollen/crystal/whatever it's called that collects on my budbuster, powdered stems, and some small amounts of good bud... what I need to know is what ratio of bud/crystal/leaf to 26'er 151 proof alcohol is good for a strong stoning effect off of a few ounces, instead of having to drink so much you just get hammered and pass out?... And should I add the bud as a whole, or powder it?

Thanks in advance.

I hope that made sense... I've been indulging :)


**EDIT**

Oh yeah, would mixing the green dragon to carbonated beverages (7-up, coke etc...) make a difference?... I've read something on erowid about the carbonic acid converting thc to delta-9 thc, or something like that... Would it at least cause it to enter the blood stream faster? (I assume it would, just like beer)

Thanks again

**EDIT**

Wait, I don't think I have shade leaf here, looks like it may be bud leaf, I'm not 100% sure what to look for, but the leaves are small and there is a lot of crystals at the bottom of the bag (very dry)... buddy just gave it to me, heard I was looking for some 'shake', how can I tell for sure if it's bud leaf or shade leaf?

Thanks/sorry again... My short term memory span is an asshole right now.

chuck it in there and drink it!!!

i wouldnt powder the leaf,otherwise itl be harder to filter before consumption...
stalks are good but again i wouldnt powder...:\
 
does anyone know of a way to extract pure thc from buds or shake or is hash pretty much the closest you can get to pure thc??
 
Special_k asks: "does anyone know of a way to extract pure thc from buds or shake or is hash pretty much the closest you can get to pure thc?"

Butane Extraction is pretty-darn pure.

Basically, any Extraction will extract-out all of the THC (and the other Cannabinoids) out of Pot.

As far as I know, there's NO easy way to JUST Extract THC (without the other Cannabinoids), but I don't think that was your question.

Hash is NOT the purest form of THC.
Hash Oil is.

In the World of Hash Oils, Extracting with Butane gas makes the purest Hash Oil.
In fact, Butane Extractions are called Honey Oil (because the Hash Oil is so pure).
Its color is like Honey; its consistency is like Honey. (It's a REAL Honey.)

If a person uses Alcohol (or other chems), she will still Extract-out all of the Cannabinoids (but, will ALSO Extract the Chlorophyll and a few other oil-soluble chems).
______________________

Hash usually has about 30% THC (and other Cannabinoids).
It CAN have as much as 70% THC.

Hash Oil usually has at least 60% THC.
Honey Oil has about 95% THC.
