Critical Success Points

  • Continue whisking the cream until the butter fully separates from the buttermilk.
  • Press the butter in the cloth to remove as much buttermilk as possible, otherwise the butter will stay wet.

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful of splashes from the high‑speed mixer.
  • Use a clean cloth to avoid bacterial contamination.
