45. You simmer it with much more water than butter,

Very low for a few hours. Some people use crock pots. Then you finely strain / squeeze it out it into a heat proof bowl and put it in the fridge. (And run more boiling water over the strainer to get all the butter out)
A solid lid of butter will form on top overnight. You can use very cold water to rinse the bottom, but the little amount there won't matter. The butter should be very green, and the water will stink and be very murky and useless- discard. There is a slight taste alteration to the butter- but not the typical one and no smell.
The great thing is you can make it quite strong and dilute it and or freeze some for later too.
For brownies, I think using coffee or espresso as your liquid and some extra cocoa(directly to the butter) helps make them extra special.
You're welcome! Let me know how it works for you!

They had her in an orange jumper in an empty cell. Where did she get the recently-consumed pot? pnwmom Jul 2015 #4

Pot stays in your system for a good while, long after the high wears off. Comrade Grumpy Jul 2015 #6

Blood tests are pretty accurate these days Nevernose Jul 2015 #10

Hmmm, I'm guessing it would have been a blood test at an autopsy... Comrade Grumpy Jul 2015 #14
