-​6 grams cannabis flower

-1 pound unsalted butter

Directions ​

0*1q tylBqyY aryEr

​1. Decarboxylate the cannabis

  • Heat the oven to 225°F. Spread cannabis buds out into an even layer on a baking sheet and place in the oven.
    ​Take care not to let the temperature go over 225°F and burn (if this happens, you can lose potency).
  • Bake for about 35–40 minutes, then remove from the oven and cool before grinding into a coarse powder. ​
  • The decarboxylated cannabis will keep in an airtight container in a cool, dark place for up to 2 months

2. Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the decarboxylated cannabis and cook, taking care not to let the temperature go over 200°F for about 45 minutes.

3. Remove from heat and let sit, undisturbed, for 10 minutes

4. Strain through a fine mesh-sieve set over a bowl. Press carefully with a spoon to extract as much oil as possible

​The milk will keep for up to 6 weeks if covered and refrigerated.
