It is important to note that one should not bring cannabis or cannabudder to heat at or in excess of 350° degrees Fahrenheit (176 °C). This includes the decarboxylation process and/or cooking your cannabutter into baked goods. When a recipe calls for excess heat, simply lower the heat and cook the product for longer. | It is important to note that one should not bring cannabis or cannabudder to heat at or in excess of 350° degrees Fahrenheit (176 °C).

4) Discard the plant matter. Use cannabudder immediately or refrigerate/freeze it until it is time to use. Left over plant matter can cause the budder to get moldy if stored in the fridge for too long. If the infusion recipe is scaled up then one pound of butter (4 sticks) can absorb a whole ounce of cannabis; you may want to simmer for up to 60 minutes for this. | 4) Discard the plant matter.
