Enjoy Homemade Butter Fast With A Sawzall

Enjoy Homemade Butter Fast With A Sawzall FARM HOME Food If you’re looking to make homemade butter and lack the traditional churn it’s possible to leave the shaking to a Sawzall Instructables user @1ofakindwork decided to experiment after discovering that shaking a mason jar of heavy whipping cream into butter took over 30 min He brainstormed a less intensive strategy and stumbled on the strategy of using a Sawzall “Now I can make homemade raw butter in 2 min or less with minimal work ” he says The process requires a Sawzall and system for stabilizing it clamps or ratchet straps along with a sturdy table 3-in no hub band with full metal collar an old Sawzall blade a small piece of 1/2-in plywood four casters zip ties a nut driver drill bits and a table vise to keep everything in place But most important according to @1ofakindwork is a sense of safety “Sawzalls are not toys Please don’t try this unless you take all safety precautions and are well-versed in using this tool They’re very aggressive and powerful ” The first step is to clamp the Sawzall blade to the table and cut off its teeth rounding and smoothing the sharp edges @1ofakindwork used a metal cut-off wheel mounted to a Dremel Next mount the Sawzall to the table and prep a mason jar with 1 cup of room-temperature heavy whipping cream and 1/4 tsp salt making sure to screw the lid tight You’ll then need to remove the metal sleeve from the no-hub coupling flip the rubber inside out to expose the coupling divider and cut the divider off Flip the rubber right side out again and replace the metal sleeve Next drill four holes into the plywood’s corners and lay the jar between them Run zip ties through the holes and around the jar to secure it and create a sled Everything is now prepped for the two minutes of shaking necessary to make butter Mount the plywood sled to the Sawzall and turn it on starting slowly and checking on the zip ties Ease up to a comfortable speed ensuring you control the jar the whole time “You’ll know the butter is finished when you see solids form in the jar and become one mass ” says @1ofakindwork You can strain the butter to remove the buttermilk then store your homemade butter or enjoy it fresh Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Instructables www instructables com/Home-Made-ButterButtermilk-The-Man-Way/
