I want one of those butter presses.

I made another batch of butter; DW bought cream from the dairy we get milk from it is an expensive way to buy cream but the yield from this cream was 50% more than when I use Browns or Masters cream. It produced very little butter milk and turned turned to butter very quickly.

I rinsed it 3 or 4 times in cold water from the fridge. Thne pressed it hard against the bowl and by hand several times until no more water seemed to come out. I still didn't get it all becuase it is weeping a little still. I will try cheese cloth or muslin to get the water out next time.

I will keep an eye out for butter pats and a press.

Thanks everyone for all of your suggestions.

This looks similar to what I have, just a lot fancier wood than mine.
