The chief obstacle in butter coming is
frequently caused by allowing the cream
to remain in a room of changing temper
allure, ranging from freezing up to blood
heat, as is sometimes the case while it Is
awaiting the churning. The cream
should be kept at a cool and uniform but
not freezing temperature, and should not
be kept long enough to become bitter
When ready to churn warm it up TO a
temperature Of about g. dogs. until it
becomes pleasantly acid. Churn at a
temperature of about 60 dogs. and don't
add fresh cream 10 that which is slight
ly acid just as you begin TO chum. In
that case the acid Of the old cream will
not affect the new quickly enough for
each to churn in the same time, conse-
qucntly a good deal Of butter will be lost
in the buttermik.
Milk and cream very easily contract
unpleasant od0rs which will affect their
flavor, and for this reason the greatest
care should be observed to keep the mill,
room clean and sweet, and use it only
for dairy purposes. Stop churning as
soon as the butter is released and appears
like grains Of wheat To continue longer
is to injure the texture Of the grains and
give the butter a soft and greasy appear
ance.
