Gonna give your recipe a try, is a coffee filter sufficient? And I am assuming the product should be filtered while hotI had about a half ounce of sugar-leaf trim and larfy buds. I used 6 sticks of butter and a cup of water, let simmer for 3 hours. Strain and refrigerate overnight to separate the thc fat from the icky spinach water.

I think I have one of those in stock, salted or unsalted butter? I was thinkin about tryin cupcake pans with liners, reheatin the product after separating the “spinach water” and puttin measured amounts into the cupcake liners, eg. 1/2 stick melted butter is 59 ml which just happens to be the capacity of the feeding syringes I use for such thingsThank you, sensei. Much appreciated.

Wow, that is probably the lowest ratio in a recipe I have seen. What are planning to make out of your butter just out of curiosity?
Cheese cloth works great too as long as you don't squeeze.
Hmm I also have coconut oil in stock, need to read up on the decarb thing
From what I saw you don’t wanna exceed 250f, I saw several methods one of which was decarbin right in the oil on a hot plate maintaining 250 till bubbles stop forming, was supposed to be the most thourough method as you know decarbing is complete when the bubbles stop. I don’t care bout stinkin up the house thats why I have 2I know I've seen some people decarb inside a sealed mason jar using a pressure cooker. Just so happens I picked one up recently so maybe I'll give that a try this time around. Hell, then I could just pour coconut oil into the same mason jar of decarbed trim and use the pressure cooker to make the cannabis oil too. This might also prevent the house from getting incredibly stinky like usual.

Thanks for the tips, this is a new “thing” for me so of course I’m gonna have to ocd over it for a while before I get to cookinI put water in with my weed and butter in the crock pot to use as an indicator and protection kinda. As long as there is some water in there with the fat, it'll never go over 220 f, because above that, you start to lose a lot of terpenes to evaporation. The thc-a in raw bud needs to sit around that 200 f area for a bit to break the -A molecule off and become psychoactive and mix with the other oils.
After refrigerating, you can use your thc ghee 1:1 in recipes in place of regular stick of butter. There is no use for the separated water portion. In place of butter you can use vegetable oil, coconut oil, hemp oil, whatever you got that's edible.
Do you leave the lid a little loose?
The jar lid is the lid I spoke of, did it create a vacuum seal on the jarNot sure which lid you mean, but I didn't leave any lids loose.
