  • Sounds like you’re screwing up the decarb somehow. Try a water bath decarb instead. You’ll get a slightly lower potency but i’ve never had problems extracting this way. Put your weed broken up into some butter. I use 20 grams weed with 250 grams of butter. Add 2 cups of water. Boil that for 90 minutes while keeping an eye on it. Pour that into a plastic jar that can withstand the heat and let it cool. Stick it in the fridge to let the water and butter separate. Remove the butter puck from the top and get rid of the water. You can add more water and boil the butter a second time to wash and clean the butter a bit but this step isn’t necessary every time. Fin.











  • Having made butter the old school way I would suggest making a batch without grinding. Grinding the weed breaks cell walls and causes more chlorophyll to leech into the butter. You can taste it and it can cause the green color. If you use whole buds but broken up small you’ll usually get a more golden color and the taste will be less like grass and more like weed.
