Cannabutter
1. To begin you will need a crockpot, 1/4 pound plant matter(buds,popcorn buds,trim,cut up sugar leaf), 1 pound of unsalted butter,4 cups of water, large mixing bowl, 3 feet of cheesecloth,pasta strainer and 48 hours time
2. Put the pound of unsalted butter in the crockpot
3. Add the 4 cups of water. Some crockpots cook faster then others so feel free to add more water to prevent the mixture from burning or getting dry
4. Add 1/4 pound marijuana plant matter no stems please
5. Let the mixture steep in the crockpot for 24-48 hours on medium to low setting. The water isnt meant to boil or the thc will start to break down. Open windows at this step because its gonna smell like cooking cannabis unless you dont have neighbors near you in that case leave the smell its great.
6. Take out your mixing bowl and set the pasta strainer on top
7. Cover the pasta strainer and the bowl with the cheesecloth,leaving plenty of extra room off the sides of the bowls. Carefully pour contents of the crockpot on top of the cheesecloth covered pasta strainer. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allow most of the liquid to seep into the mixing bowl.
8. Gather the edges of the cheesecloth so it encloses the plant matter into a bundle. Remove the pasta strainer and wring out as much of the liquid from the plant matter as you can. It may be hot so use gloves if so. It takes some strength to wring it out. When there is no more liquid to wring out place in the refrigerator for 6 hours. Dont put in the freezer or the water wont separate from the butter.

Also a word of caution. Eating thc it will have twice the effect and lasts twice as long as smoking it. So eat in moderation even if you dont feel high just yet wait a bit before you go eating 20 brownies.
