Luvcow: One day nearer spring

welcome to my thread on churning butter!

wikipedia posted:

Churning is the process of shaking up cream (or whole milk) to make butter, and various forms of butter churn have been used for the purpose. In Europe from the Middle Ages until the Industrial Revolution, this was generally as simple as a barrel with a plunger in it, which was moved by hand. Afterward, mechanical means of churning were usually substituted and are considered to be far better.

Butter is essentially the fat of milk. It is usually made from sweet cream. In the USA, Ireland, the UK and the Nordic countries, salt is usually added to it. Unsalted (sweet) butters are most commonly used in the rest of Europe. However, it can also be made from acidulated or bacteriologically soured cream. Well into the 19th century butter was still made from cream that had been allowed to stand and sour naturally. The cream was then skimmed from the top of the milk and poured into a wooden tub.

Buttermaking was done by hand in butter churns. The natural souring process is, however, a very sensitive one and infection by foreign microorganisms often spoiled the result. Today's commercial buttermaking is a product of the knowledge and experience gained over the years in such matters as hygiene, bacterial acidifying and heat treatment, as well as the rapid technical development that has led to the advanced machinery now used. The commercial cream separator was introduced at the end of the 19th century, the continuous churn had been commercialized by the middle of the 20th century.

that annoying feeling when you churn too much butter and have to bake more english muffins but then you make too many of those and have to churn more butter...

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.

My main problem is that if I havent posted a thread recently enough in the past, my fingers autonomously press post even when I tell them to press reply. :mad:

i'd like to point out to our lovely newcomers that even though it may have been more normal in gbs-that-was, in byob we don't consider it "cool" or "chill" or "a good idea" to react to a photo of a lovely female person by posting that you'd have sex with her

as an alternative, might i suggest appreciating the funny joke that the person made out of the photo? namely, "new thread" - which itt means thread as in a discussion thread on a forum - has been reinterpreted as new sewing thread, hence the photo of the lady spinning thread. pretty clever imo!

Sorry man. It's kinda weird to creep on someone in a random pic, and can make things uncomfortable.

You know, there's a story about the two little mice that fell into a pitcher of cream.

The first mouse swam for a little while, but after a few minutes... he gave up. He drowned in the cream.

But the other little mouse kept swimming. He didn't quit. He swam and swam until all his paddling churned that cream into butter and he walked out.

So unless you want a block of butter with a dead mouse at the bottom, don't leave an open pitcher of cream out where mice can fall into it.

Also this story proves something about bootstraps.

Tragically, it took early man centuries to realize you didn't need one of the churners to die for it to work.

I know a faster way: get a small cartoon of cream and shake it with your hand(s). Soon it will feel like there's something solid inside. That means you made butter!

It circumvrents the problem, friend. If you really want, you can take the butter out and place it on a dead mouse and then put a live mouse on top, so it can adorably walk across the butter.
