About this Rotpot ‘make your own butter’ starter kit

RotPot Butter kit is a complete do-it-yourself kit with which you can make the tastiest butter at home by means of fermentation, this old preparation and conservation technique, in which bacteria convert the naturally present sugars into mild acids.

This RotPot variant comes with a classic spice mix to make the tastiest fresh herb butter. You can taste the difference. And then you only need a little bit of patience because your homemade butter is ready to be eaten after a few days.

Real butter has been fermented. Most butters from the supermarket are not, so they are much less tasty. By fermenting for a longer or shorter period, or chosing cream by grassfed cows, you can influence te flavor.

Free buttermilk as a bonus!

You get the buttermilk as a bonus, because it is created as a by-product during the ‘churning’ of the butter.

If you like making butter yourself, and you want to add a different flavor, you can vary endlessly with it. Make salted butter, or unsalted. Or add a little bit of chili pepper for a spicy herb butter.

This butter starter kit is reusable!

The materials can be reused over and over again.
