Save Money. Save Time - Let the Butter Churns Do The Work

Butter churning is a process that involves turning cream into butter and buttermilk. This process has been around since ancient times, requiring manual labor and the use of wooden butter churns. Nowadays, butter churns are made from materials like metal, plastic, and glass which allow them to be powered by electricity and make butter churning much less labor intensive.
