Making cannabis butter: step by step

The production of cannabis butter is simple and requires only a few ingredients. The most important step is the“decarboxylation” of the cannabis to release the active ingredients such as THC and CBD. To do this, the cannabis is heated in an oven at a low temperature. It is then mixed with butter and slowly heated to release the cannabinoids into the fat. The result is a potent butter that is ideal for further processing.

After making the butter, you can freeze it in small portions and use it as required. This means you always have a practical base for your recipes.

• Decarboxylation necessary
• Heat with butter
• Freeze in portions
