Yea that was this thread.I posted it. I think I posted my whole process, do you get the awesome fiber I'm talking about
here it is... I like the thing someone said about re melting it in fresh water to clean it up a bit. Gonna try that next time since my wife complains about the taste, but you only need a little bithey folks read some of the posts here wanted to add my 2 cents... I have been making butter for a long long time back in the day we used comercial kitchen equipment huge stock pots on a commercial stovetop a thermometer a lot of weed and a lot of butter. that was then and this is now.... I always run it through the blender with enough water to get it movin. chop the shit out of it till it looks almost like a green smoothie if the trim is wet I freeze it a day or 2 before I use it. I always come out with scary powerful results.... put me down for 18 hr. the other day and when I woke up I felt soooooooo refreshed and ready to take on the world. I feel the 2 key points are chopping it up in the blender and then the special tool wich I will get too. I don't really measure anything I just eyeball it wich is probably why it comes out too strong somtimes but just little adjustment on the dosage and all is well. so I covered the blender part already next comes the crock pot with an eyeballed amount of butter we will say 2 sticks for this run then pour in the blended trim I then run on hi for 2 hr. then low for 2 hr and now the fun part everyone loves, back in the day when we were dumb and full of cum we would pour it through a cloth then squeeze the butter out with our bare hands burning the shit out of ourselves for the cause. Fast forward 15 years and hey check out this cool new tool I got, you all may have seen it before or heard of it.... A fucking potato ricer.... I use one to squeeze the moisture out of my morning hashbrowns before I cook them but wait, you could squeeze your weed with that thing. If you are really anal about things you could put a coffee filter in the bottoom of it to keep any bitches that squeeze through the lil holes from scuming up the bottom of your butter but I really don't care about that so much. The trim that you blended with a lil water and cooked for four hours comes out a fine dry fiber... it is beutiful and soooo dry but by useing a potato ricer you squeeze every last bit of butter out of the fiber getting the most bang for your butter check it out I highly recomend you pick one up http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Good-Grips-Potato-Ricer/dp/B00004OCJQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1350063634&sr=8-1&keywords=potato+ricer there are bigger ones they are expensive this is the one I have and use
Mine comes out pretty dry in picks but it brakes right up, might be because of how much I break it down in the blender before I cook it. It's a beautiful thing which river did you get
thanks in advance dudes!
just realized I must have been on my phone when I wrote this.... picks = pucks..... river = ricer.
I used the blender for the first time this weekend - 1z trim/bud X 1lb butter.
I used to do stuff with it but anymore I just make brownies with it..I used to have one where I would roast some onion in a pan then cook chicken in the same pan then take the chicken out pore some white wine in the pan to deglaze out them added epping cream butter crumbled bacon and blue cheese then pour that over the chicken and onion...pretty good stuff...make a pizza mix it in the sauce...gotta have your dosage right on that kind of
I noticed my crockpot was getting a little hotter than I liked, so I put a timer on crockpot 1 hr. on 1 hr. off for 24 hours.It seems we over cooked it a boiled away some of the butter after all. My cousin was here helping me and I think we may have misunderstood the directions in post #1. We will be trying it again soon, maybe 2lbs of butter depending on how much the trimmings weigh after I harvest.
I followed the directions as closely as possible but for the first hour I believe we ended up accidentally setting the crockpot a bit too warm...
Thanks everyone, updates soon.
BTW, does anyone have a good cookie recipe?
Have you tried reprocessing ?
