can butter be put into the kettle

Yes it can, but the instructions prefers that vegetable oil be used. There are other recipes included in the manual like parmesan popcorn and kettle popcorn which I have not yet tried.

I have not tried butter.. Yet a friend of mine put the seasoned salt in the kettle and it burned...

With the assumption that you are asking how easy it is to remove the final product from the Magical Butter 2 unit..... Butter would be the only thing that you would want to remove before it cooled enough became solid again. Oils and Tinctures would obviously pour out of the unit at room temperature. Butter on the other hand would begin to solidify as it cooled. You could either use a spatula to remove the butter from the unit if it has cooled to a semi-solid state, or you could simply begin the timed butter making process again in the machine for a brief period, until the unit heated the butter to a liquid state again (approximately 5 minutes of run time). You could then just pour the liquid butter from the unit. ~Outlaw~

Yes--it does hold a full stick of butter. Pack it in with a spoon while it's still cold; it will be pretty level with the top of the "bell." You use 1/3 cup of water, and that amount forms a seal with the "bell," regardless of the amount of butter in the bell. It works great; I really like mine. :-)

A kettle is for boiling water for tea, coffee, etc. It could be used to melt butter, Iguess, but you'd have to really clean it well if you are ever going to use it for tea ever again! A smallish pot, over a low setting, and a wooden spoon are the best way to melt butter.

You can but you really wouldn't need to. I some times use butter when cooking eggs.

Yes. Add it to the oil before the corn. Then fake liquid butter after. Yummy.

I would personally not think it would be a good idea, as water is the first ingredient in The Smart Balance in my refrigerator , and it would break down at room temperature. And to preserve the butter in the crock you add cool water, I would not think it would preserve well, sorry.

It is very important that you make sure you leave no air holes when you put the butter in the butter keeper. Smooch it in real good. It is what I do and I have never had a problem.

No, you can use it all up, then refill it with a new stick of butter. Just change the water every two days.

Havn't tried, but I don't think so. You pour boiling water into it, as in tea!

I have not tried it but it is not recommended by the manufacturer. I just boil water in a tea kettle and pour it over! Very easy and I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Ummmm...I suppose you could use it on whatever you like, but errr...it's butter and I've not heard of anyone putting butter in coffee (not that it can't be done), but if you already put butter in coffee...I suppose this would be no different!

IMO it would be too messy for that. But, sure it will hold butter. Have you tried a butter bell? It's shaped the same way and is designed to hold butter.

I don't know for sure but I don't think so. To make butter using Buttercup it is best to use the freshest butter you can get and make sure the temperature of the cream is at the room temperature.

As some have mentioned you can use salted butter, but the preferred method to help from the start is to add a small amount of salt to the water itself.

You definitely have to wait until the butter softens. Press down the butter slightly as you put it into the bell. The butter should be a compact mass without any pockets of air in between.

I found putting in about a quarter cup of water in the larger piece is good. I suggest you do the following over the sink: put a quarter cup of water in the bottom and then put the top down in it. If water doesn't overflow, it's OK. Then add a little more water and see if it overflows or not. Through trial and error you will find the right amount! Also, your butter will be very creamy and easy to spread instead of oily. TIP: remember to empty out the water at least weekly, especially during the hot months of the year!
