The dose, worked

4 tbsp infused coconut oil × 9.87 mg per tbsp = 39.5 mg THC (theoretical) ÷ 8 portions = 4.93 mg per cup.

Theoretical maximum: it assumes complete decarboxylation (THCA × 0.877) and that every milligram ends up in the food. Real yield is usually lower, which is why you start with one portion and wait. Re-run the maths for your flower →

Dosing notes

  • All the THC is in the peanut layer, so dividing that layer by weight is what sets the dose. Weigh it.

Can I use cannabutter in the filling?

Yes, the same 4 tablespoons; the filling will be slightly softer.
