I would say just use what ever amount of butter/oil the recipe calls for and just throw the shake all in. Your butter/oil will be more potent and then your bath of cookies will be more potent. I've only ever used oil to cook with and I just simmered the trim with the oil for a couple hours and strained it. Shoved it in the fridge for a bit and then cooked with it. I'd assume butter is pretty much the same procedure except its more prone to burn. good luck!

I usually use about an oz of trimmings/ scraggles per pound of butter. If you want it more potent 2 oz per pound of butter. Get a nice size sauce pan and put let the butter melt on low heat (you dont want the butter to get brown or burn up, add a little water if you need to, it will evaporate).

Crock pot method is easy too... put 1 Lb butter in, 2 ounces dried and powdered bud/trim, enough water to cover it all, cook on high 1 hour, then cook on low 3 hours. Strain out budder through cheesecloth, Voila.

Good advice. I never thought of using a crock pot. Ill give that try next time.

+1 on crock pot , with a big pair or rubber gauntlet gloves ontop of a pair of wolly gloves to insulate :fire: then wring it out .
A good cooker hood is a nice addition here as it can stink the place out .

kae so here it goes, this is prob the most effeciant way i know of that eliminates smell and mess u will need :
boiling watter in a pot ( duh )
cheese cloth ( to strain the matterial from the butter)
an oz of bud
1 lb of butter per oz ( look for highest ammount of fat in butter)
and vacume seal bag ( make sure its a very thick plastic that can withhold from melting in the watter)
deep bowl
plastic tupawear to put ur butter in after
once watter is boiled but ur matterial in the bag along with the butter,then vacume seal the bag and throw it in the boiling watter as if u were poatching fish , after about 20 mins the butter and the matterial should have mixed and melted, put the cheese cloth over the bowl ( it may be easyer with 2 ppl for this step) have one person hold the cheese cloth not letting any matterial in the butter as you pour the mixture out of the vac pac after that u should have cheese cloth full of wet bud , squeeze the shit out of it to make sure u get all of the butter out of ur buds then put into small container and let set in the fridge for about an hr. now heres the fun part your going to want to expariment bit by bit with the butter just so u know how much butter u should and shouldnt engest because consuming weed effects you differently then smoking it , enjoy !!!!!!

some tips to use ur butter ..
on toast first thing in the morning ( or when ur munchin if that tickles ur fancy)
or just add it like u would add butter to any thing else u cook with let me tell you it adds a great kick to any food
( cuz ur eatin and gettin fried at the same time iuno about the rest of u but its the best of both worlds)

Does anyone know if using a volcano to vape bud and then sticking the nozzle in a vat of butter and depleting the bag into butter would work at all?

This is my easy butter recipe that I came up with and works great everytime-

Ingredients/equipment:
-I usually use a european style butter (you can find it in any supermarket for a few bucks extra) because they have a higher butterfat content and I think this produces more potent butter. I use whatever amount of butter the recipe calls for, or as much shake as I can submerge in the butter and I freeze it after too use later if I have too much.
-Sugary trim
-1 shot of the highest proof alcohol possible
-Crock pot
-Blender
-Cheesecloth

Method:
-Blend up all shake finely as too expose as much surface area as possible for the THC crystals to be broken off
-Meanwhile, melt the butter in the crockpot on low
-Then I add the ground shake in and give it a good stir
-Immediately after, I add the shot of alcohol and stir vigorously (I do this because THC is fat soluble as well as alcohol soluble, and I think that some extra crystals are broken off from the alcohol and make the butter a little stronger, but who knows, maybe I'm just too stoned)
-From here I stir every 30 minutes for about 5-6 hours, and usually leave the crockpot outside as to not stink up the house too much (you want to see tiny bubbles forming on the bottom and surface without the butter boiling or burning)
-After that I just strain the butter with the cheesecloth

this recipe works great for me and is really easy. if you don't have a crockpot, you should get a cheap one for like $20-25 at walmart or wherever else.

My favorite baked good to make with this is banana bread. Banana bread is very easy to make, and you can put more butter in the recipe without any negative effects in the bread (ex: if you put extra butter in a cookie recipe, the cookies will be flat, but if you put more butter in a banana bread recipe it will just taste better/butterier)

Then I just calculate how many grams of pot were in the butter I used, and cut the banana bread up according to how much pot I want in each piece.

Good luck I hope this helps,

Not very effectively, no. Unless you can figure out a way to stir the vaped air into the bud without any vapor releasing. Sounds like a real pain in the ass if you ask me.

no. loook at the thread i gave you

1000% better to use a crock pot, butter, water and cook it on low for like 10 hours... either use already vaped weed, or use the weed before you vape it...

I know what works better people. I am wondering how effective putting the end of a bag of volcano vaped marijuana into a thing of melted butter and squeezing the air out of the bag and into the butter? Has anyone any idea how well that can work?

everyone said it would not work. and i too will tell u that it wont. the vapor will just bubble out of the butter and go into the atmosphere

all i do is grind up all my trim, pop corn nugs, and whatever shake i have (i use 30-34grams per pound of butter) 28g is recommended..i take all the bud throw it is a crock pot with the butter turn it on high for the first couple hours to get it nice and warm then set it on med or low for 14-20 hours. NOTE- i add a shot or two of vodka to help break down the THC cuz weed is water soluble..after its been in the crockpot for a half to a whole day i start scooping the weed out with a big ass spoon and strain the sit out of it into a big "GOOD QUALITY" sealed container..put it in the fridge and its a done deal..then after the butter forms its layer at the top i poke a hole in it a drain the water out
