In this book, you will learn how to infuse weed into butter, oil, coconut oil or virtually any fat you prefer. But you can’t just sprinkle your stash onto a recipe, as creating truly great weed butter is an art. Packed with helpful color photos and step-by-step instructions, this book shows how to make the perfect weed butter for any edible and every application, from reducing stress and battling pain to helping with PTSD and overcoming night terrors.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2019A whole new way to love and appreciate weed butter. This book is indeed a step by step guide to becoming a cannabutter master. We've always had the ability to make the butter but we hardly cook when it comes to regular food, yet alone the extra skills required for weed products but this book helped us master it! I loved everything about this book from it's big beautiful photography to the step by step directions and easy to follow recipes. I LOVED the effects and taste profiles with different strains. LEGIT, who knew!?? It makes so much sense that some strains work better for som taste profiles, but whoda thought. Certainly not these californians. Some wonderful recipes and ideas. Enjoy this book!

Images in this review - Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2019I wanted to find a book that would educate me as to how to make cannabutter, and more specifically make it with the right dosage. Ms. Aggrey did a great job of not only pointing out the importance of proper dosing, but also her explanation of desired dosing from low to complete pain relief is simple to follow. I’ve been using weed for the last 2 decades, and edibles are now a part of my everyday life, helping me stay off alcohol and valium which almost killed me. Marijuana is my pain relief, my anti depressant, my ADD medicine, my good night sleep medicine, my productive cup of joe that keeps me focused. And this book is exactly what I was looking for to start my own line of edibles for my own personal use. In the beginning there is some history and how the marvelous weed has evolved into where we are today, and while I wanted to jump right into the recipes, I found the first couple chapters extremely entertaining; very well written and I feel like I can get started cooking immediately with a plan that will work. I have not tried the recipes, and will report back with a follow up once I pull that trigger. 5 stars
- Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2019So this requires the story of when I made pot brownies with pot infused oil. It was given to me, so I didn't make it and I had no idea how old it was or the potency. Cut to making not very good tasting brownies because I used too much of the oil AND it was very very strong. It tasted like the pot infused oil instead of chocolate and I got WAY sick. So I had to dump them. The point of using weed butter to make edibles for me is not to get high, but to relax my muscles and fall asleep a little easier. This book has a potency chart with micrograms so you can adjust for yourself AND the potency is listed with each recipe. It also has helpful hints about what to do if you make a mistake and get uncomfortably high, which leads to my only irritation- it mentions closing your pores with a cold shower. You can tighten your skin, but your pores are NOT A WINDOW they don't open and shut!!!! Other than that, great book. Totally a great gift, especially for those with cancer or a lot of arthritic pain who do not want to smoke.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2019I gave this to my brother in law for Christmas, and he's been reporting back that he's really enjoying the book. I read it myself before I gave it to him, but since I don't use marijuana, I have to rely on his expertise. What I was most blown away by in this book is that the actual recipes are really good on their own. I own a lot of cookbooks, so I can recognize a good recipe when I see one. This book isn't just your standard "how to make a weed brownie." There's shrimp and grits, which my brother in law has tried and said was delicious. There's West African Fried Chicken, which I ended up making without the cannabis and loved. There's guacamole. Weed guacamole. BIL said this went over really well at a party. All in all, I'm really impressed with this book. And there are a bunch of instructions at the start for infusing weed into butter via different methods, based on what you have available.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2021My favorite book on this subject! I used it for my first batch of cannabutter and it came out amazing! It has a variety of simple methods to cook the cannabutter, including a set it and forget it crock pot method, which is how I made mine.
The recipes are also quick and simple, as opposed to other cook books that are longer and more complicated, like the book entitled “Edibles”.
Lastly, you’ll be supporting a Black business woman, which is very needed in this industry and in general.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2019I have peripheral neuropathy in both of my feet.
Doctors initially treated the pain with opioids, and I wound up an addict. My weight jumped to over 325 lbs and I came close to dying.
I almost gave up, but a friend talked me into getting a Maryland medical cannabis card. I had never tried cannabis before, so I was hesitant - but moments after my first smoke the pain stopped.
Now I am using The Art of Weed Butter to make edibles, and it works a million times better than smoking for pain control - and I don't have t deal with my neighbors calling the cops for smoking outside (I almost got shot by a redneck deputy with a muffin top in my own backyard!).
The book is passionately written, easy to read and best of all the instructions are easy to follow.
Thank you, Mennlay Golokeh Aggrey for this wonderful healing book.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2023I have been making cannabis edibles for nearly 30 years so when I get a cookbook I want to see how right they are. In my opinion any cookbook will do it's really all about making the butter oil or anything else you would use. This book does this far better than any others in the Cannabis cookbook marketplace. Very thorough and showing you how to make your own and explaining the science behind it. It is all super accurate
