[Help] Making Pot Brownies

I've made many batches of brownies and it's always hit or miss. I'm not sure what I'm doing right or wrong. I usually add anywhere from a 1/4 to 1/2 oz. Some batches ill get a mediocre buzz and other batches have me stoned for 2 days. What is the best way to release the THC into the brownies?
My plan was to soak my cannabis (1/2oz) in the vegetable oil/butter for awhile, then add the brownies mix and bake. Will the baking process activate the THC?
Or should I be simmering the cannabis/oil before adding it to the brownies mix. I'm afraid of burning away any of the THC or something.
What's your guys' method of preparing brownies? What would you recommend?

The one thing that always works without fail is using ABV to make your budder The heat from the vaporizer decarbs it 100% and you dont have to worry about overheating and wasting any actives
You can even eat that stuff raw, together with some high fat meal, sometimes i sprinkle it on my pizza after its done

I would decarb it and simmer it. I only make brownies with abv though so I've never had to decarb.
For simmering I use a double boiler to keep the weed from burning.
Here's a site that talks about decarbing. I'm sure there's a lot of other good advice on there.

Wow I'm getting old. Never heard of decarbing! Thx for the link and replies.
It appears I do want to carefully simmer before adding it to the mix.
From the link:
Decarboxylation Methods
Cannabis Oil - Place heat proof container of cannabis oil into a cooking oil bath (canola oil works well). Heat cooking oil to 121C/250F. Stir cannabis oil to break up bubbles. Remove cannabis oil from heat when bubble formation starts to slow down — or leave on heat until all bubbles stop for increased sedative effect.

If you have dry buds, break them up on a cookie sheet and bake for thirty to forty minutes at 240f. If you have a vial of hash oil, place said vial in the middle of a Pyrex baking dish and fill the dish with canola oil and heat at 240f untill bubbles form in the hash oil and then stir and keep baking untill bubbles disappear. Then you can take either the buds or your oil and simmer your desired amount with the oil from the brownie recipe for at least 90 minutes. Let that cool and use as normal in brownie recipe.
-------------------- Alright then, picture this if you will: 10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes, in my "need to know" post, just outside of Area 51. Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thing with just a flaming stealth banana split the sky like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this. Cutting right angle donuts on a dime and stopping right at my Birkenstocks, and me yelping... Holy fucking shit!
