Equipment

  • Microwave Oven
  • Cookies Sheet with Parchment
  • Hand Grinder or Mortar and Pestle
  • Small or Medium-Sized Pot
  • Stove
  • Funnel
  • Muslin Bag or Cheesecloth
  • Refrigerator

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of butter (can substitute with non-dairy butter, coconut oil, ghee, or other oil)
  • 7-10 ounces of cannabis trim

Directions

1. Decarb the cannabis: The first step in the process is to “decarb” the cannabis trim.
  • Take your shake or trim and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment.
  • Bake the cuttings at about 245 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
  • To ensure that all of the cuttings are fully decarbed, shake the tray at regular intervals, typically every 10 minutes or so.

2. Grind: Remove the decarbed cannabis trim from the oven. Using a hand grinder or mortar and pestle, grind the cannabis trim down.

3. Melt the butter or oil: 

  • Place a small or medium-sized pot on the stove on low heat.
  • Add one cup of water and one cup of butter/non-dairy butter/oil/ghee to the pot.
  • Allow the mixture to simmer until the butter has fully melted.
2. Add the trim: Once the butter has melted, add the trim, and stir it into the mixture.
 
3. Simmer: Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat for 2-3 hours. Return to the stove to stir the mixture at regular intervals. Don’t let the canna-butter mixture come to a boil.
 
4. Strain: To strain the mixture, you’ll need a funnel and a muslin bag or cheesecloth. Strain the mixture through the material and the funnel into a container.

5. Refrigerate: Place your canna-butter in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
