#1607151 - 01/02/10 04:51 PM Cooking with Cannabutter: Temperature?
BCCPHC Newbie Registered: 11/05/08 Posts: 28	So I just picked up a 1/4 cup puck of cannabutter from the local dispensary. I remember hearing once that for proper preparation, foods with cannabutter should be baked at low temperatures, like about 200 degrees Fahrenheit, instead of the usual 350 or 375 that most recipes call for. Can someone shed light on this for me?

Scented Nectar Stoner Registered: 03/24/07 Posts: 673 Loc: Toronto	I read somewhere to keep the baking below 400, and for stovetop prep, to a max of the boiling point of water. I make the butter using the water method which keeps the temps at max simmering/low boil, and I bake with recipes that are up to 375. The recipe I use to make the butter, as well as a bunch or recipes it can be used in, are at http://www.alphapot.com/bud-butter/ _________________________ youtube...

mercuryshadow09 Stranger Registered: 01/30/10 Posts: 6 Loc: Colorado	For butter, bring 2 quarts water to a boil, add one pound butter, let butter melt and and let it come to a rolling boil, add 1 once of cannabis, let simmer for 3 to 4 hours There is a a lot of debate how long to simmer, some say an hour, the longer you let it simmer, the more THC you will extract, brownies are fine cooked at 400 degrees! _________________________ DOCSROCKBANDMODS.COM "A friend with weed is a friend indeed!"

They were a big hit after a rough day of trimming enabling solid rest for a frazzled bunch. Originally Posted By: kenny_canuck This cookie recipe is dynamite, requires no baking.
