After watching a few videos lately of different people making butter using a variety of ways I bought some double cream - you might refer to it as heavy cream, I don't know (I'm in England). I have a blender, electric hand mixer and a food processor but decided to use the hand mixer. Poured the cream into a large plastic jug and started whisking. It took no more than 2 minutes, so quick I wondered if I was doing something wrong - or not doing something right - but no, everything was fine. I drained off the buttermilk, squeezed the butter in cold water and got just under 1lb. As a lot of prices have gone up, this butter cost the price of the cream I used, a lot less than the price of 1lb of butter. I subsequently enjoyed some toast with the butter I'd made then used some more butter for mashed potatoes. I will never buy butter from the supermarket again.

Thank you for that; was thinking the same as butter going sky high and eggs out of this world!

That’s awesome! We love becoming more self-sustaining and hearing about others who decide to do the same!
I've made butter with a hand mixer many times. I'm sorry, but you didn't squeeze out the buttermilk enough, as I can see it on the parchment paper. Viewers should be aware that if butter still has buttermilk in it, it will taste sour and spoil more easily. Keep squeezing out the buttermilk with your hand over a sieve until it's all gone!

Thanks for the constructive feedback!
Thank you so much! your video was spot on. My husband and I are on fixed budget, sometimes we utilize the food truck to get by. It's always a surprise what you get. I always attempt to use everything we get, sometimes it's kind hard. This past truck we got 4 quart bottles of heavy whipping cream. What do you do with all that heavy cream? I decided to make butter, first time, well the first attempt wasn't great, I used my blender. Oh Lord, well it didn't help the blender is probably as old as I am... (old as dirt), didn't come out well. So, I took to the internet, after a few viewings I found your site. Your instructions were perfect, the video was real-time, and complete. I armed myself with your knowledge and attempted again. I made butter for our family and a few other of our elderly friends. We all want to thank you!

I'm glad you left the video as long as it took to make the butter. But here's my question. How many times did you stop the hand blender in between? Only asking because I'm stressing over my blender burning out!
First try got it thanks to this video!!

I wish I'd watched this video first!! I watched on that said 5 minutes for homemade butter...I was so disappointed I didn't have anywhere near the consistency I needed at the 5 minute mark, because the video I watched was cut and edited, so I thought I was doing something wrong and threw everything out, in aggravation. I'm about to go try this again, only this time, I will be patient😊

A lot depends on your room temperature. I live in a tropical climate and it’s impossible for butter to be the consistency it is in the video

You might mention that if you use goat cream when the whipped cream breaks you won't see the distinctive yellow color. It will be white, but you will notice the buttermilk separating. Beat it within a inch of its life to get as much buttermilk out for a longer life. I am going to put it in a cheese cloth because I think it will be easier to remove more of the buttermilk before the final rinse. It is much easier to make cow butter than goat butter because cream separates from the milk much easier than goat (goat milk naturally homogenized). Most of the store bought goat milk is nowhere near as good as the milk from a goat dairy. A real treat is consuming whole goat milk from a dairy, you will be impressed how different it is from the grocery store variety. What makes cow butter yellow is the beta carotene. Goat milk does not have beta carotene. As far as goat milk being goaty, ours has never been that way. I usually have pasteurized milk, but if you do pasteurization right (and not everyone does) it would take a foodie to tell the difference from raw or pasteurized. Around our family, no one likes the store bought goat milk. Some of the kids have milk allergies and now enjoy goat milk, butter, whipped cream, ricotta, chevre from our goats. Which is great plus they get to play with the babies a few times a year. You can buy a cream separator. The prices vary from reasonable to expensive. For cow, you probably won't need one. Extracting cream from goat milk is a time consuming process. I would get a separator if you plan to do that. Realize that buying cream from a goat dairy might be a little pricey because that is where the big money is from the cheeses and butter you can make from the milk.
Thank you I love your video so awesome

Kitchens are the most commonly found chemical labs, agreed 100%.
I had leftover whipping cream and made it today per your video and also pushed it through a sieve (thanks Leela7909)..I made a mess of my kitchen but the sweet butter is absolutely heaven and tastes fantastic on our breads and toast. Store-bought butter doesn't even come close!

How long did the process take? I tried with an immersion blender with a whisk, and it took over 30 minutes for 1 cup cream

We do it with a cream separator. Once it is heat to extraction temp 104°F. In 10 minutes you will have nearly a quart of cream and probably 3/4 gallon skim milk. Whisking goat cream to butter does take about 1/2 hour depending on the concentration of the milk fat. More milk fat less whisking. Be sure to use an ice bath in the final process of making butter. Remember butter melts, so it needs to be cold when being g whisked.
How long does it take to make the butter from start to finish? It would be nice to make butter like this but make it so the butter would be a nice soft spreadable kind without any oils and it would be natural so you could put it in an old butter dish that has a shape and a lid? I thought that you could add the things that you want in the butter at the start? It would be nice to make your butter taste like mint or even other flavors? Would it be better to use extracts such as vanilla etc?

It depends on what kind of mixer and what speed you use. We always add ingredients at the end.
First time butter maker. I used 600mls of cream, followed all the steps somewhat successfully and ended up with about 300mls buttermilk and the rest butter fat. But the butter fat is not hard/squeezable at all. I've washed it and it's clear but the consistency is more like cake icing (pastey/apreadable)... help

@@ceciliachunge-muhizi7677 you made need to continue mixing until it reaches a harder consistency! Was the cream at room temperature when you started?
I am also mixing the cream for more than hour and what I have is only whipped cream. I have collected about a liter of this fat before I started the process. I am concerned what is going on and why my butter can't form.

Same thing happened to me when I used the jar method. After shaking for nearly 2 1/2 hours I still had only whipping cream and gave up after wearing myself out. 😢
I justvdhake it in the mason jar for 20 mins.

I also just tried this with my hand mixer and it never worked. It got to whipped cream and never split. After 30 min of hand mixer I put the whole bowl in the fridge for an hour, tried it again. Bumpkiss. Added a little cold water, never split. Ended up just throwing the whole thing out
May I request you not to throw off the first butter milk? It is more nutritious than butter itself due to presence of fermenting bacteria which is good for our gut health. I mean it is your choice to have it or not but you can use it for making chaas ( sweet or salted as per your choice.)
