I had a tooth ripped out the other day.
My mouth hurts so bad and now I am craving steak :(
There seems to be a bunch of fellow Londoners here

Lol no cold fusion is what I call it. I'm sure someone else already named it something. I learned in school when I was younger about fats and solubility and a little bit about plants too. So what I do is take decarboxylated bud, grind it to a powder, and put it in a jar with cooking oil and let it sit for about a week agitating once a day. The active ingredients leach into the oil and since the bud is powder there is no icky pieces of bud floating around. After a week I used that oil to make brownies. Again, apparently they are beyond amazing.... but I didn't get off on them.

Be it butter or oil you don't actually need heat.. it can be explained with math but to simplify; little heat (room temp) and a long time = potent product. Same with high heat and short time. However, I find that heating the oil or butter creates a substantial amount of smell which to me means your losing terpenes and possibly Cannabinoids. With my technique I preserve all the goodies in the bud and it goes right into the oil. I do use decarboxylated bud so that might make a difference too.

all BONE DRY bud is decarbed... heat only speeds up the process.Once done..its done.
dont heat it above 100 degrees and everything wil be fine with the smell ;)

Heating the butter to a melting point wont hurt anything and it will still take up to an hour or so to remove ,,,its not a solvent after all but is oil soluble of course.

I've tried different methods for making butter, but never cold. Might try it for shits and giggles.
I use the slow cooker method with good results and very little mess.

I have not tried with butter only vegetable oil. I just used a recipe that calls for oil and substituted the regular oil for my cold fusion oil :-)
Just make sure when you let the oil sit it's in a dark cabinet or something.. something to do with the light breaking something down.
