HOW TO MAKE CANNAMILK OR BUTTER FOR 420 EDIBLES

Read the steps below to know what to do when these pop up on the ingredient lists!

The first step is to decarb your weed:

How to decarboxylate weed

Break the cannabis into small pieces and put them onto a cookie sheet. Put in an oven for around 30 minutes until golden brown.

Then, take the cookie sheet out and let it cool down (this process is known as decarboxylation of the weed).

Cannamilk recipe

1. Heat milk and add the decarboxylated cannabis. Keep at 180°F and stir frequently for 30 – 45 minutes
2. Pour through a strainer and press on the cannabis to remove all the liquid
3. Let the cannamilk cool down before using it in the recipe

Cannabutter recipe

1. Boil a quart of water on a stove
2. Once boiling, add butter and let it melt completely
3. Add the decarboxylated cannabis and reduce heat to a simmer
4. Let the butter cook at low heat for around 3 hours, or when the mixture begins to thicken at the top. Don’t let the cannabis touch the bottom of the pan
5. Put the mix in a bowl lined with cheesecloth. Squeeze out the liquid.
6. Let the butter cool for an hour and then put it in the fridge
7. When the butter takes the form of a spread it’s ready for use!
