Got to thinking (dangerous, I know..LOL!), but this might work...maybe..

So, instead of taking all that trim and simmering it in the butter, why not just run the trim through the hash screens (silk screens) and then dump the resulting kief into some simmering butter?

Yes? No?

Might be an easy way to make fresh butter each time you bake...just keep a small jar of kief around, and add it to the butter as you need it.

I have done this, in fact I did this with 20 lbs of butter and multiple ounces of keif/hash. What I found is that it is a more "up" reaction than taking all the trash and making butter. The problem I found is that my 77 year old that uses oil or butter was being helped by the other cannabaloids becides just the THC and this didn't give him anything that helped the pain and the insomnia. It works but isn't nearly as strong. If you deal well with just the THC and that helps you it is great but even smoking the whole but a person would get cannabaloids other than THC so my opinion is mixed on this idea.

i havent used kief, ive also never used plant matter so its hard to compare, but makin butter with bubble hash, still fresh wet bubble works best, but any good bubble hash will work. and while i also am not tooo experienced with real narcotic pain pills either, muffins made with bubblehash butter, will knock out any pain better than anything iv ever tried. dosage would need to be worked out to be functional on it i spose, but just for pain relief, man it knocks it out for me, much more than any smoking.

strain could also play into the effect of the butter as well i think.

i made butter from kief before and it works great, bud if you you just shake it off the risk remains that a part of the trichomes will stay in the plant mass, so you might wasted some. and you will still need to shimmer it for a good bit as you oxidize the THC in this process, so the activation takes place during the shimmering.
