Last time i made butter the water seamed to have keif in the bottom.
After the water and butter had seperated, the water seamed to have a layer of thc like sumthin on the bottom?

Can you cook/stew this mixture for to long?

Yes and you could have burnt it/heated it up too much and didnt have a chance to bind the thc with the fat in the butter.

resin glands are golden so if it was green bits its probably pieces of leaf the filter didnt catch.

greetings from sin city.
makin my cannabutter today. hope to make some nice brownies tomorrow.

I made a couple batches in the last couple days. Yesterday I made some peanutbutter cookies and frosted them with a chocolate buttercream frosting. All of course made with the cannabutter. I had my first one about 15 minutes before my girlfriend. She ate hers then. I have a very high tolerance and she a very low tolerance. Well I felt a buzz coming on but she didn't so she had a hit or two out of the pipe. I went about doing some cooking while she watched a chickflick. About 20 minutes later I noticed she had her head down on the arm of the couch. I asked her how she was feeling. Well aparently she had already puked once and had made her way back to the couch where she collasped. She literally didn't move for 3 hours. I kept checking to see if she was breathing. Later she said it hit her like gangbusters. To think I wasn't sure it was going to be any good. Needless to say she may not have another cookie for awhile but that leaves more for me!!

I used a store bought peanutbutter cookie package and used the pan method with 3 tbl of butter. Then I found a Chocolate buttercream recipe that used 3/4 cup of butter and frosted it with that. Well it kicked some serious ass.

I noticed some said they cooked for 12 hours. Anyone know if that does anything more to the quality?

I've been using a very similar method for a long time... just made a batch today, actually. Next time I am going to try the ice bath to reduce the chlorophyl that's transfered.
Years ago when I first tried this method I had no idea of the potency. I had a couple pounds of butter ready so I twisted a number and started making some chocolate chip cookies. I couldnt resist a couple spoon-fulls of cookie dough while making them. I made some nice LARGE cookies and when they were fresh outta the oven I poured a big glass of milk and pigged out... I mentioned that I burned one at the beginning of this adventure in baking, right? By now you can see where this is going... I was wrecked, crippled, twisted, totally dysfunctional... for 2 days! No shit. I missed a day of work, slept right through it. Ever since then I can't stomach that "green" flavor, it actually makes me nauseous. Even so, I am not a quitter. =) I soon after found that substituting mint chocolate chips for the regular chips completely masks that "green" flavor. Also when you take the mint chip cookies to work and one of your co-workers filtches one, they can't tell, and you get a chuckle as they act stupid for the rest of the day.

This is definitely on the list of priorities for harvest time. Thanks for the recipe, we all appreciate it.

[Mr.Cannabrex]

Glad you like the recipe.
The icebath is a definite.

Now I just use kif in and mix it into my dry ingredients (flour, etc).
No need to make cannabutter, but still fun!

[allmanjoy]

do you need ice bath with vapor remains? And how much vapor remains to butter.

You can water extract the pot before making butter to clean out impurities
or you can
Extract the cake of cannabutter with water after making cannabutter
Make cannabutter as per the various recipes.
Strain out the pot and allow the mixture to settle into layers. The water under the cannabutter is dark. This is caused by water soluable impurities in the water.
After the cake is hard, take the cake of solid cannabutter
-place into a new batch of water
-heat slowly and gently melt the cannabutter in fresh hot water.
-Stir the melted cannabutter - water mixture very vigorously a couple of times
-let settle and cool.
- Once separated and the cannabutter solidified, the water is dark again with water soulable impurities. The butter is cleaner and tastes better. No potency is lost.
- discard water and repeat a couple of times for a very pure cannabutter
