I’m making Cultured Butter… my first batch tasted great… still working on refining my technique with my IFOLO Butter Churn… hoping my next batches will be even better!

David · August 26, 2026

I made the buttermilk for my 91 year old dad. He has always had buttermilk in the fridge when i was growing up roughly 10 years ago. He stopped having it when I asked him why he said he couldn’t find the real stuff anymore so when I was searching the web, I found New England cheesemaking culture for buttermilk. I made some and it reminded me of the stuff Dad used to have in the fridge so I made it and gave it to him and he loves it now. Thanks so much.

First attempt failed-my house was too hot. Second and third batches turned out just right.
