is there ANY point in trying to make cannabutter if my abv is like dark brown?? if there is, how much material i need to make a potent container of 1-2lb worth of butter/olive oil cannabutter?
Yea mines like this color, i vape between 360-395FThis is a picture of my ABV. I make cannabis coconut oil with it. I sometimes make my oil with just ABV. Sometimes I combine the two - fresh decarbed cannabis and the ABV. Ive used it directly powdered and ground up with a coffee grinder into mixes too. It's tricky because you need to add extra oil. ABV can be very potent and it's sudating, it will put you to sleep. If that's what you need. The ABV oil isn't ideal for daytime, I use it mainly for sleep and pain.
If your ABV is too dark (very dark brown with black) and no lighter flecks it might be spent. Try it out in a peanut butter choc milkshake. Try a tablespoon grind it up to powder. It's already decarbed all you need is to mix it with something fat. You might want to heat up the peanut butter then add the ABV and cook on the stove on low heat for 10 min. stirring, let cool then add to the milkshake. The liver will digests it that's why it takes a while to kick in. Also I would drink the milkshake on an empty stomach then eat something after 45 min or so.
@lwien puts his ABV directly into his oatmeal with some fruit. He gets awesome results that way. The cooking of the ABV may not be necessary. I just added that as a precaution.
It can take three hours to kick in. Do this with caution. You don't want to take too much. You could even just drink half and save the rest for later and put it in the freezer. The cannabis may settle to the bottom so make sure you give it a couple stirs while drinking.
This is something I got absolutely wrecked on once - the cannabis peanut butter chocolate milkshake tastes really good, you can't even taste the ABV. I used more than the tablespoon. I thought ABV wouldn't be that potent. Be careful and start slow so you can figure your dose.
