    I use mine only from late October till early April...because I live in the desert. It's just perfect for my guilty pleasure of Irish butter.

      Irish butter is unmatched! I agree that if room temperature is over 23dC, the game changes , we can’t discuss for over the counter storage

      I know that I will consume that butter within those few weeks that the bell will give me.

    I just recently purchased a butter bell (I also got mine from Amazon). I bake sourdough bread about once a week and my husband and I love the convenience of soft butter for the sourdough toast alone! 😀 Soft butter is also convenient to make a grilled sandwich. Having the butter bell on the counter doesn't make us consume more butter...it just makes it more convenient when we do use it.

      thanks for the on-point comments!.. glad you guys enjoy the convenience while keeping consumption unchanged!

    we have alwaya left our butter out in a butter dish (covered, but not sealed or air tight)... it's never gone rancid. does the bell REQUIRE water? or will it keep the same as it has always done in/on a butter dish?

    • @TassosKoidis
      @TassosKoidis  Місяць тому

      well, the water is meant to be the sealant , but I hear you, even without it is fine.. this is also the opinion of a lot of folks in this channel/video..

    • @Luke_Tahoe
      @Luke_Tahoe 27 днів тому

      I’d think without the water, at certain temps it would melt into the bottom since it’s upside down

    What is the pickle container called? The butter bell doesn't hold enough butter, is there a butter bucket?

    My butter spoils in the bell after a few wks. What am I doing wrong??

    • @TassosKoidis
      @TassosKoidis  9 місяців тому

      hmm.. spoiled as oxidised or mouldy? maybe the water sealing is not working well, maybe the butter was initially too old/not fresh.. try a different butter and a small butter bell.. dunno ,,, :-/

  • @fab006
    @fab006 8 місяців тому

    Is the butter meant to stay in contact with the water? Or should you leave an air pocket, or let one form when the bell isn’t full anymore?

    • @TassosKoidis
      @TassosKoidis  8 місяців тому +1

      yes, indeed, it is no problem for the butter to be a bit wet. it creates a layer that prevent oxygen for jumping in and ruin things. but when it is not full, well, you are right; that's not ideal.. hopefully the cone space means that you will go through the last part of the butter relatively quickly,, but good points, Thanks!
