 Weak Brownies/Cookies

So I ended up using 12grams of some fire bud, grinded it up, deacrbed it in the oven for an hour at 240, which came out looking like it had a yellow tint to it. Then filled medium sized pot with about four inches of water, poured in 1 and 3/4 cups of coconut oil followed by the decarbed bud. Let it simmer for about 2 1/2 hours I wasnt sure when it was done so i dont know if it was too long or too short Then strained it, let it cool and put it the fridge overnight. So did I use too much coconut oil because when I made brownies today I put the amount of canna oil they asked for in the recipe - 2/3 cup. But when they were done they weren't very strong. the high came in about 50 mins but only lasted about 45mins and i wasn't blasted or anything just barely nice and relaxed.. Or should I have used more oil in the recipe? I couldn't even taste bud or anything, I had a small 1 1/2 by 1 1/2 inch brownie a while ago and it tasted like bud and it had me blasted. I have pics in my gallery for some reason I cant link them on with this post

By no means am I an expert on cooking with cannabis, but you used way too little. I used 2 ounces of bud, made cannabutter, and made one batch rice crispy treats and even they were still weak. I say try using more product.

oh you should have been plenty wasted from that amount.
If done properly, regular leaves will get you high as hell.
The concept is to extract the available actives into a fat source which you did correctly.
I would've skipped the oven idea.
The other trick to this is not getting it too hot. Thats why the old school butter in water trick is so effective, because water doesn't go past 212F. When strained & cooled, the butter rises to a beautiful green HIGHLY ACTIVE chunk.
Apply this concept as a knowledge reference and change the contents however desired.
Basically, you got yours way too hot for way too long and vaporized the actives.
If youre heating straight oil, its important to pay attention to temps.

HA! So I cooked it for too long? 2 1/2 hours simmering? or I cooked it too long when I decarbed it?

Yeah during "simmering" . Like I said, thats how cooking in water protects it... 212F.
Wath out fot the unintentional vaporization of THC

Don't decarb it.
If the temp is right, your bud will decarb in the oil, which will retain all the goodies.
On my first cannaoil cook, I decarbed for ~30min at 210 in a pan with a tight fitting lid. Then, after the 30 mins, I took it out, opened the top and took a big whiff. It felt like I was ripping a volcano bag, no joke. I got high just smelling after the decarb step.
So, If you decarbed that hot, for that long, you basically vaped it and got your oven baked.
Good luck in the future!
EDIT: I fill mason jars half full with bud/trim, then fill the rest with coconut oil.
