Marijuana Butter Recipe

 

Ingredients and supplies for Ganja butter

• A double boiler or two sauce pans (just make sure the smaller upper saucepan fits well enough to nestle within the larger lower one).
• Wooden spoon
• Large mixing bowl
• Cheese cloth
• Rubber band
• Lidded Container
• Grinder
• 1 pound of butter—Do not use margarine it wont work you need the fat in butter.
• 1 ounce of high-grade cannabis, stems and seeds removed. If you use low grade weed , be aware you will have low grade butter.

Method

1. Remove all stems and seeds from the nugs of weed(or shake, if that's what you're using). Grind the entire ounce and set it aside in the large mixing bowl.
2. Fill the lower chamber of the double boiler with 3-4 cups of water and set over medium-high heat. Seat the upper chamber on top of the lower section and add the pound of butter.
3. Heat the butter until it fully melts then reduce heat to simmer.
4. Pour the oz of ground cannabis into the upper chamber and mix well with the wooden spoon. Allow the mixture to continue to simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring regularly, until the liquefied butter turns green. While the butter is infusing, wipe out the large mixing bowl that held the cannabis. Next stretch your piece of cheese cloth across the rim and secure it with a rubber band.
5. Once the butter has been sufficiently infused, remove from heat and gently pour the contents of the pan over the cheese cloth to strain. As the rate of butter flow slows, carefully lift the edges of the cheese cloth from the rim of the bowl to create a ball of processed, buttery weed. Hold the ball against the side of the mixing bowl and gently press out any remaining butter using the mixing spoon.
6. Pour the butter from the mixing bowl into a lidded container. Cover and refrigerate overnight until the butter firms.
7. As the butter cools and solidifies, the oils will separate from waste water. Discard the excess water before using the butter.

IRS Harrassing Sacramento Marijuana Dispensary over business expenses

  Sacramento’s Canna Care dispensary, a religious medical marijuana provider well known for giving out buds with Bibles, is waging a public fight with the Internal Revenue Service over an $873,167 tax penalty sought under a tax code aimed at illegal drug traffickers.

  On Feb. 24th, the U.S. Tax Court in San Francisco is due to hear Canna Care’s challenge over whether the IRS can impose the hefty tax demand under a 1982 law intended to close a loophole that allowed a Minneapolis drug dealer to claim tax deductions for a scale, his apartment rent and telephone expenses.

  In the case of Cannacare, the IRS has refused to accept over $2.5 million in business deductions for employee salaries, rent and other costs after auditing 2006, 2007 and 2008 federal tax returns for the north Sacramento dispensary. The IRS did allow the dispensary, which handles about $2 million in medical marijuana transactions a year, to deduct the costs of the marijuana itself. 

  The IRS used the Reagan era tax code, known as 280E, to seek tax penalties against numerous California dispensaries under the argument that their business expenses constitute support of drug trafficking operations. Its ok to deduct the cost of marijuana though?

Those targeted have included California's largest medical marijuana provider, Harborside Health Center, which is negotiating with the IRS over the government’s demand for $2.5 million in back taxes for Harborside’s Oakland and San Jose dispensaries.  Canna Care employs 12 people the CEO makes $100,000 and the director makes $75,000 a year. The other employees make between $30,000 and $40,000 in addition to health benefits. The dispensary maintains its non-profit status in part by supporting charities, including cancer research and a community Christmas event in Del Paso Heights.  

  So the IRS is targeting a 12 person business who donates all their profits to charity and whose CEO only makes $100,000.  Clearly the government has no concern for the sick citizens of America they just care about getting more tax revenue to spend on programs we don't want or need.
