Cannabutter help (high quality herb)

So im making butter for the first time in years, Im fucking stoked.
Using around 6 grams of super high quality bud. 8 grams of already vaped weed, and about 6-8 grams of stems leaves ect.
I was planning on using 2 sticks of super fatty butter do you guys think it will be enough plant material. Last time I did this used mids and trimings and had about an oz but used 4 sticks of butter and the cookies kicked your ass.
Going to use the recipe here (grasscity) any feed back will be appreciated

i wanna share the last time i made eatables ..
Quote:
2 days ago i made a banana bread. i used 36 grams of bud, in cooking oil. My friend said he did a "batch with 30 grams", what he didnt tell me was his "batch" was 3 loafs (10grams per loaf, mine was 35 in one!!!)..
So last night at ten i ate 2 slices... They didnt even taste like weed (strain your oil guys). I didnt even think i was gonna get a buzz, because i was burnt out from smoking all day.
MAN WAS I WRONG!!!
By midnight i was high, 1am i was peaking hard ! I was soooooo fuckin high. Closed eye visuals, Extreme Parinoia, no energy to move at all, tongue felt like sand paper, and my whole body was shaking like i was freezing cold. I knew i wasnt gonna od no matter what, but it still was not fun. id rather eat 5 grams of mush then do that again!!
I was trippin balls like this till 6 am. Then i passed out sitting up! I have had no desire to smoke since last night... that shit was too much!
Moral of story: always double check your dosage . I prob ate 5-7 gram in one sitting

Man thats great! I made cookies peanut butter cookies once with a hash glaze.
we figured that we had about 3 grams in each cookie but then again with the hash glaze omg
Last few times I ate edibles I felt nothing but I think it was there fail in preparation plus amount of material per stick of butter.
Alright im going to buy some fucking butter!

It's really important that you use UNSALTED butter. The guy in the tek used salted butter and that's not good for baking. I also think the water method is more fool proof.

I cook as well. The butter and water is perfect. The water never allows the butter to burn, and it keeps the temp regulated. You can even keep it at a rolling boil with no ill effect. Then you strain it, put the water and butter together in the frige. The butter rises to the surface and hardens and you just take it off in a nice flat disc. The key is that it doesn't burn or allow the temperature to rise to the point where THC vaporizes or the plant material burns.

Ah butter didnt burn light simmer . Been working to long in kitchens besides butter browns at 220ish and i got no wear near that candy thermometer read 180 at the top end
Maybe for people with out a therm or less experience i saw the water as an unnecessary step

I've done cannabutter in water and I've done it stove top with nothing but butter... both ways work fine.
But my preferred method is the slow cooker. I use 5.5 oz of trim to 4 lbs of butter, in a Hamilton Beach crock pot ($45 on Amazon) set to "warm", for 48 hours. Note, you'll have to re-set the crock pot every 15 hours or something, as it has an auto-shutoff timer. To the point, this method of making butter is hands off, just stir it a couple of times throughout, strain, and you'll have some KILLER cannabutter. 
The 5.5 oz of trim to 4 lbs butter typically yields about 5 - 5.5 cups of finished product.
