I could make a separate thread (page) for this if people want me to with pictures and all that once I get mine delivered. I’m new here.

VP Butter (Volcano Poo Butter)

Materials (read below, most aren’t needed – just handy)

Funnel
Small canning jars (old baby food jars work also)
Cheesecloth
Stove pot
Bowl which is larger than pot and glass or metal
Water
Butter
Volcano Poo

Just like I wanted my inhalation of choice to be semi-pure (and bought a vaporizer), I want my butter to be pure. My butter in the past was made using a double boiler to eliminate the addition of water. A double boiler is simply made by using a put and a bowl that will fit over the entire mouth of the pot. Fill the pot half full with hot tap water (to speed the entire process up) and place the bowl on top of the pot. Turn the stove on High. Place the butter in the bowl (I am not contesting anyone’s formulas or ratios, I have 0 experience making it from poo) along with the amount of poo.

Once the water begins to boil, it will heat the underside of the bowl (which should not be touching the water in the pot). This ensures that the bowls heat received is not only evenly distributed but also static. This causes the item placed on top, normally delicate density (chocolate, butter or other oils, etc.) will not burn, scorch, or ignite.

Every few to five minutes walk by and give it a stir. You can stir more if you want – it won’t hurt. Be paranoid or OCD like me and stir your little heart out if the mood strikes.

Let it cook as long as you can stand it. You should cook AT LEAST 15 minutes. I wouldn’t go that low, but this method of making butter has anecdotal evidence to support it. In these cases the product was left in the butter and used in baking. In this method, technically, the product steeped long as it sat for a heating time in the over during the baking process. To make a short story long (yes, I meant to type it that way) cook at least 30 – 45 minutes. The longer you cook the more plant tasting the butter gets. I have cooked a batch for 2 hours. It tasted like the product smelled.

Turn off the stove.

I am not sure if the poo will be reusable after this (as in making another batch of butter from the same poo – it may pull out much more as there is nothing but milk-fat and the rest of the butter in the bowl with the poo). At this point I use the funnel placed in the canning jar and drape the cheesecloth over the funnel. SLOWLY start pouring the butter solution into the funnel until it has all passed. OCD people (raises hand) will want a spatula here to scrape the bowl.

I use latex gloves here. You can buy them anywhere. These are the style like what a doctor or veterinarian use. They come in boxes of 100, but you may be able to buy smaller quantities. I use them when cleaning various equipment as well.

The poo will be hot and steaming here. Be careful not to burn yourself. Let the poo sit in the funnel and cool if you need to. Once you can handle the ball of poo, pick up the cheesecloth in one hand and squeeze the ball of poo into the funnel. Get in there and get your hands dirty (gloves) and get all that juice out of the poo.

Put the lid on the canning jar and place in the fridge.
