FAQ:

Can I make butter without a mixer? Yes! If you don’t have a mixer, you can shake the cream in a jar, though it will take a bit more effort and time.

What do I do with the buttermilk? The buttermilk is great for baking, such as in pancakes, muffins, or biscuits, or you can use it in smoothies.

Can I use light cream instead of heavy cream? Light cream will not work as well because it has a lower fat content. You need heavy cream for the butter to form properly.
