The butter shouldn't be burning off like that. I don't know how you fucked up that bad bro.

Tell us how you cooked it: How much bud, butter, and water.. On a pan, in a double boiler, a pot, a crock pot? Covered, uncovered? How much heat? How did you strain it?

When I make butter I just combine butter and weed in a pot that sits inside another pot that contains barely simmering water for about an hour and a half. I cook over a QP per week like this with great success.

Ok sounds like you went overboard in a few areas. If you do all the shit below you are gauranteed to make viable cannabutter.

Alterations to your setup

1.) you didn't need 2.5gal of water for you bottom pot, just enough so that the smaller pot containing the herb and butter will sit comfortably in it. The more snug the fit is the less you have to worry about the top pot containing the herb and butter spilling/sinking. At the same time you need to have a slight gap so that the water in the bottom pot is not sealed (like a lid on a pot of pasta or something) because this will increase the temperature too much. YOU ONLY WANT TO SIMMER NOT BOIL.

2.) Temperature is a huge deal here, if you get too hot you're going to vaporize the THC / cannabinoids that you're trying to absorb into the fat of the butter leaving you with butter that tastes like herb but contains NO THC.
- On my electric stove I let the bottom pot get to a simmer on ~4-5 (out of 9) setting without the top pot in it yet.
-Once the bottom pot of water hits a simmer I put the top pot (empty at this time) on/in the water of the bottom pot.
-It is at this time when I back the temperature down to the point where the bottom pot of water is barely at a simmer. Meaning if you turned the dial down a smidge more the water would sit still.
Note: While I'm finding this temperature I chuck my butter in the top pot so that it'll be melted when I put my herb in.

Now that we've found our stove setting that will allow the bottom pot to be on its lowest simmer WHILE the top pot is in/on it  AND the butter is melted we can dump our herb in (nugs, stems, seeds, leafs, everything).

I grind mine up as fine as possible without powderizing it. For this you can use a hand grinder, coffee grinder, or magic bullet. (Note for the last two: be VERY careful when grinding with electric devices, it is SO easy to grind them too much and lose keif in the grinder.

My ratio of herb to butter is divided into two categories, commercial and personal use and then further sub-divided into regs and danks.
Personal:
Danks: 7g per stick butter, making ~16-18 strong cookies
Regs: 14g per stick butter, making ~16 strong cookies

Commercial: (I don't use danks for sales)
Regs: 14g per stick butter, making 22 medium strength cookies aka good for anyone to eat: old, young, newbies, veterans.

Note: to counteract any butter that may get burned off I ususally add a bit less than 1/3 cup of vegetable oil per stick of butter into the top pot. Vegetable oil also has a higher fat content so it is often said vegetable oil is better for edibles than butter.
:themoreyouknow:


Cooking:

-Once you've got your bottom pot at its lowest simmering point WITH the top pot on there (perhaps with pre-melted butter in it) we can stir in our herb.
-You're going to cook the butter/herb combo for about 1.5-2hrs. The longer you go for the stoneyer/more couch-locked the end product is going to be.
-Stir the herb and butter every 10 minutes, ensuring to scrape the crap that sticks to the sides of the pot back into the mixture.


Straining:

-Once the reactants have been simmering and stirred every 10 minutes for an hour and a half to two hours you can now begin to strain into the mixing bowl you're going to cook with or the jar/bowl you're going to store the butter in.

-I pour the entire contents of the top pot through a strainer that has small enough holes that approx. 90% of the herb material cannot get through when you press strain it through your strainer.

With the material you have left on top of the stainer put it in either 1 or 2 coffee filters and squeeze it into wherever you're collecting your cannabuter. Obviously you want to try to get every drop out that you can, this stuff is liquid gold.



Feel free to cook anything you want calling for butter or oil. Use the same amount of butter/oil they call for in the recipe and you're sure to achieve a very euphoric state. Again I ususally do 1 stick of cannabutter per 16-22 cookies depending on how strong I want them to be.

Enjoy
