For those of you who are cheap like me and don't grow, here are my few experiences with cooking with smaller amounts.

**The author of this work is presently blitzed beyond belief and make some typing spelling and grammatical errors. Please forgive**

Basically, I made cannabutter the first time, with the saute method. I took two joints worth of weed(my joints are pretty much cigarrette sized, as I use a joint roller machine). This weed was a decent bit of schwag, decent in got me quite high by smoking a joint. I used a non stick fry pan, and placed half a stick of butter in it, and proceeded to melt it over medium heat. **Note, this was a bit too much butter for the amount of weed in my opinion**When the butter was melted, I reduced the heat to keep it just below a simmer(somewhere between low and medium, depends on yout stove). Then I added my weed, 2 joints worth of schwag, and cooked it over low heat, with frequent stirring to prevent burning for about 15 minutes.Also, I was constantly adjusting the heat to keep from burning butter or weed.

Note:When the butter is melted, you can also "clarify" the melted butter, by scooping away the white foam like stuff. I believe this will help the Cannibudder last longer (decreased rancidity). I don't have a need to keep it around for more than a day or so, thus I skipped this process.

Ok, so you've cooked 2 joints worth in butter, now ya gotta strain. At this point I didnt have a nice handheld metal strainer, and couldn't find any cheesecloth, so I poked a ton of holes in a coffee filter, and squeezed the remaining butter from the vegetable matter (Don't forget to cool it!)

Tada, a small amount of cannabudder! Now, I used a premade cookie (the raw kind that sells in the refrigerated section in the grocery store, that you break apart and cook), and worked the butter in. Since I used half a stick, I had to use four cookies to cut down on greasiness, and ended up with a giant cookie. Cook, serve, fry, repeat!

I was baked in about an hour, and continued to fry higher for a few hours, then slowly came down. I fell asleep about four hours into it, and woke up a little high! I have a few more experiences to share, but it took me about an hour to type this because typing is a bit of a chore right now=)

Note: Eating gives me a heavy, heavy body buzz. Every part of me tingles, its so cool!
