This thread is for us to talk about butter bells.

>How often should I change the water in my butter bell?
You should change the water every 2 to 3 days. You should also make sure it is cold water.

>How long can butter last in a butter bell?
Up to a month.

I'll butter up your read end with my penis.

I like to hide weed in mine. I also scoop it out with a caviar spoon.

>>21461355 (OP)
Since when can't you store butter outside of the fridge?

For storage yes leave it in the fridge, but for usage it's unrefridgerated in a butter dish.

>>21461370
it just looks nicer than a butter dish imo and it's a conversation starter

>>21461370
I also make my own butter at home in a jar then it goes into the butter bell. you just have to leave heavy cream out in a jar on the counter for a couple of hours then shake the jar up and it will separate

>>21461371
that's what happens when you forget to change the water out isn't it? how do you remember to change it out on time? I downloaded a butter bell app but it is pretty bad

>>21461355 (OP)
>You should change the water every 2 to 3 days. You should also make sure it is cold water.
how fucking stupid. I just leave mine on the counter. I don't want moldy butter.

>>21461355 (OP)
>Up to a month.
Uh my countertop butter dish lasts essentially forever. It's several months before I run out of butter and have to refill it. Are you saying butter bells kill butter prematurely?

>>21461556
uh, ew. also do you even cook? why does it take you several months to go through a single stick of butter?

>>21461371
Just practice good butter bell safety and don't let someone suddenly open it without properly pressurizing your bread first.

No thanks. I prefer the correct way of doing it by keeping it in the freezer and then fridge until needed. I don't need to LARP like people here using severely outdated equipment like butter bells and cast iron etc. when there are superior methods and tools available.

What is the point of these? I leave butter directly on the counter in the wrapper and it never goes bad before I use it. Are these for people who use butter once a year or what?

>>21461592
have you never experienced the bliss of room temperature butter? it spreads so well

>>21461355 (OP)

>This method will keep butter for around a month provided it is kept at temperatures below 80 °F (27 °C) and the water is changed regularly.

Some of us are in places that gets hotter than 27C

>>21461603
Plan ahead. Or if you can't plan 15 minutes ahead of when you are going to eat just buy a tub of butter mixed with canola so you can get all the health benefits of canola with your salty buttery spread.

>>21461355 (OP)
>change the water every 2 to 3 days
Way too much effort
I just keep butter in the fridge and then take it out 15 mins in advance if I need it to be spreadable

>>21461613
Yep. They are just larpers

>>21461641
What they always forget to mention is that the butter bell is a device from before fridges were invented.
In that environment makes sense to make it a bit more stable and lasting longer.

>>21461689
I take back the aggressiveness and demeaning of my tone. It's OK to larp with things just for shits and giggles. My bad. I sometimes shoot my .50 cal black powder and even do other things here and there not because it makes sense, but it connects me in some ways to the past. Surely you know there are better ways. I apologize.

>>21461370
what is the point of making it upside down? couldn't you get the same effect from making a regular butter dish with a little moat around it that you put the lid into?

>>21462007
The child couldn't consent that way.

Pfffffhahahahaha you fucking faggots are embarrassing, shame on the mods for letting plebbit colonize various blue boards, /ck/uck has always been one of the worst cases.

>>21461355 (OP)

>You should change the water every 2 to 3 days. You should also make sure it is cold water.
why? I just leave the butter in a covered dish on the counter.
>How long can butter last in a butter bell?
>Up to a month.
dude who the fuck doesn't use a stick of butter in a month?

I use about 1 stick of butter a week, maybe 2.

I don't live in a third world shithole so my house has AC, and butter is shelf stable.

>>21461613
>I just keep butter in the fridge
why? there is no need to do that.

>>21461385
>it's a conversation starter

The conversation:
>So you're a faggot, huh?
>Yes, I am. Do you have any photos of children?

>>21462168
It's in the refrigerator at the store, and why wouldn't I? I guess I could leave it on the counter but it would just get in the way. In the fridge it's out of the way, where all the other food gets stored. Except for the food in pantry, and I'm not keeping butter in the pantry.

>>21462147
we've been having butter bell threads on /ck/ for the better part of a decade

>>21462168
A lot of us now live in hot apartments and we get our food a lot less fresh, and they've been through things that means it doesn't last as long if we don't keep it in the fridge. A bungalow under a tree doesn't heat up much and doesn't stay hot long, but an apartment can be 30C most times of the day. By the time we buy butter, it could be over a year old, kept in store fridge, and it won't do so well if we take it out and leave it out.

>>21461603
I heat up my bread in the frying pan instead of toaster, so I warm the butter at the same time.

>wet butter
My butter last a month out of fridge normally

>>21461560
Counter butter is for toast. There's no reason to have room temperature butter for cooking.

And you didn't answer either question.

>make sure the water is cold
ROFL. Guess you gotta use the refridgerator then!

Might as well just do the correct thing and keep it in the fridge where it should be.

>>21462446
Why the fuck is anyone eating bread? Bread is poison. Please stop being fat.

>>21462181
how is it getting in the way on the counter? one stick of butter in a tray is not getting in the way. are you a hoarder?

>>21462391
>but an apartment can be 30C most times of the day
where the fuck do you live that an apartment gets that hot? and has no air conditioning? what the absolute fuck?

>>21463259
A lot of Europeans see AC as a "wasteful American extravagance" so they're content to wallow in hot, sweaty, greasy filth with smug looks of imagined superiority as the flies swarm around their asscracks. To be fair, you hardly notice the extra stench these days, with the European cities swarming with unwashed moorish refugees, their goat sacrifices, and the rape alleys, the air thick with blood, smoke, feces, and burning flesh.

>>21461355 (OP)
i just buy "spreadable butter" mixed with olive oil and keep it in the fridge

>>21463259

off topic and idiotic. never change, Anon.

I can't use mine in the summer
It just falls to the water container
