600ml cream yielded approx 350g butter and 200ml buttermilk. These are guesstimates. But flavour is complex and interesting and I am time rich so the reward is worthwhile.

So it costs about £2.10 to make 350g butter which is cheaper than nice Cornish butter from the supermarket. If I use organic cream the price will increase but buying cream on special offer is perfect for this.
Now I have started this I don’t think my wife will accept a return to normal butter for spreading on bread but it’ll be tolerated for cooking!

I weighed some I made today, 375g butter from 600ml of cream, plus buttermilk.

That sounds really cool and kudos
Couple questions - how much do you reckon that butter costs vs butter from supermarket?
Do you need a food processor to churn?
Appreciate it’s not a money saving thing, it just seems quite a lot of effort for butter but you have my attention
