The dose, worked

6 tbsp infused coconut oil × 9.87 mg per tbsp = 59.2 mg THC (theoretical) ÷ 12 portions = 4.93 mg per slice.

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

The end slices are smaller if you cut by eye. Measure the loaf and divide by twelve.

Can I use cannabutter?

Yes, the same 6 tablespoons; the dose per slice is the same because both infusions are made at the same ratio.

Educational content, not medical advice. Effects vary with body weight, tolerance and what else you have eaten. Label infused food with the milligrams per portion and the date, and keep it away from children and pets.
