I realise there is already a butter thread but I thought it missed a few points...
HOW TO MAKE CANNA BUTTER 101
This is how I make my canna butter and all ways works a treat for me.
All the stuff that is going in.
3.5 oz of leaf and bud trim, about 10 grams of mixed prime buds and smaller buds from bottom of plants.
The thing I do before I add the butter, is add all the stuff I will be using into the boiler and fill with water and bring to the boil then turn off the heat and let sit for 1 hour, this helps get rid of a lot of the green taste out of the butter.
Then I drain everything through an old tea towel, dump old water and re fill with fresh water bring back to boil add butter let boil for 5 mins. Place lid on and then turn down to a simmer for at least 4 hours while giving a stir every now and then and top up with extra water if needed .
After cooking, place a tea towel (if you can get your hands on some cheese cloth it drains a lot better than a tea towel.) in a strainer and the strainer over a something that will catch the butter and water coming out, let drain until all that will come out by itself has then you have to wring the shit out of it to get every little bit of butter out of the crap that is left.
BE WARNED IT IS VERY HOT AND IT WILL BURN YOUR HANDS (Rubber gloves help)
Something that will help you get the most of the butter out of all the crap is after the 1 wring out of the leaf to get what you can out, open it up and then pour boiling water through it let sit in boiling water for a min or 2 then re-wring it out and it will get a lot of the butter that is left behind.
After you have strained the plant material, you put the water/butter mix in a large container in the fridge and the butter solidifies on top overnight. Then you just break the solidified butter off the the top and throw out the leftover water.
HOW MUCH BUTTER DO I USE???
Up to 500grams I use, but that depends on how much leaf to bud trim to bud you have in what you are making the butter with.
If it is only leaf and you don't have much of it, just use 300 grams of butter as you do loose a little bit.
I guess it comes down to how much green matter you are going to use and how good it is.
But that being said if you have a shit load of stuff to cook up and say only use 250grams of butter it will be a kick ass butter, but remember if you only use 250 grams of butter after the cook and wring out you could loose 50 grams of butter as there is all ways some left behind in all the stuff from the cook...
