oh, i have 6 kids, we use ALOT of butter and i make a lot at a time so id use the big one no problem. An object passed down from my great grandfather, who was an estates manager in Betwys-y-Coed in North Wales.

And there I stood, a twenty-something Generation Nexter, getting ready to pull it out of it’s retirement, soak it in some cold water, and smear it full of fresh, raw butter once again.

Try using the tip of your knife to go around the outside edges or simply use your hand to 'pop' it off the plunger.

Just pour your infusion through the stainless steel screen and watch as it effortlessly removes all of the unwanted plant matter from your finished product.Throughout the years, dairy-loving farmers and craftspeople would carve the prints from boards or blocks of wood using either hand tools or lathes. While butter molding and stamping were a part of life on the farm, butter sculpting became quite the art form. There is another way of looking at it… Older butter will have a sour taste but it isn’t ‘bad’ as such and won’t make you sick. Once the butter is ready, I take the mold out of the water and then work all the butter into the mold.
