How To Make Cannabutter [W/ Pics]

For as long as I’ve been cooking, I’ve read about 20 recipes for weed butter and I’ve tried them all. So far, this is the one that I’ve used the last 2 times and the one that I like the most.

You will need:

- 10 grams of buds or 100 grams of leaves

- 375 grams of butter

- 4 cups of water in a pot

Boil the water in the pot and put the weed in it. (I used 5 grams of buds and 50 grams of leaves on this one)

Let it boil for 5 minutes and then add the butter.

Leave it on a low flame for about 1 hour and stir occasionally.

Drain the mix while it’s hot and add 2 cups of boiling water over it to make sure no butter is left in the leftover weed.

It’s gonna look like this. Let the mix cool at room temperature.

And then put it in the fridge overnight. When done it’s gonna look like this and it’s gonna have all of the water underneath, leaving the butter layer on top. (Don’t even try to drink the water, all the THC is in the butter)

After it was done, me and my friends just wanted to eat the butter right away. The easiest choice? Betty Crocker’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix. And the rest was history.

Shout out to my friends Nadia, Don Humo and Cris who helped me out with the cooking and hope you like the recipe.

Just use or imagination… anything that has butter in it, can have weed butter in it.

    yo I've never heard of putting water in with that – I usually just melt the butter, break up the weed, and cook it slowly, until the weed turns brown – strain it and add it to your fave brownie mix.

    with 4/20 coming up I'm def. gonna try this one out tho!

    Never ever heard of putting it in water. Your supposed to melt the butter than add the bud over a double broiler. Let cook like 3 hrs then strain it over a bowl save only the butter none of the clippings you used

      either way works….the water gives everything room to move around while it cooks so you can use less butter with more weed. Also less chance of burning it with the extra water. The THC sticks to the fat in the butter which separates from the water when it cools so no thc is lost in the water.

    trying this now, using ground up bud so we're gonna strain it through some cheesecloth. There are heaps of diff. methods. if it works then it works. I'll let you know.

    if you don't like the brown/green color or the "grassy" taste, you can remelt the canna butter in fresh water and let it separate again…you can keep doing this until the water is clean after separating. it will not dull the potency but it will taste better.
