A few pics of the strained budder. Used sugar leaves from a bunch of different plants, and made it stronger than recommended. I used 1.6 oz to 3 sticks of butter. some say 1.5-1.8 to 1 LB(4 sticks) for trim like I did, so I bumped it up by putting in less butter. I am a little worried about how dark it is, but the thin layer left in the crocpot looked green so im guessing its just the plant color. (1st time making my own).. I only have a 2 level croc pot so it was @ 189F on low. Gonna have to look it up but I think that was a little hot. I believe I cooked away most of the water. When I came home it was all dark (pic) and had no loose liquid, maybe 5 liquid oz of butter juice, and rung out the trim in cheesecloth to get what you see in the pyrex dish. Pretty good amount after ringing that shit out. I looked after an hour in the fridge and it looked like a very thin layer of water. could still be settling, but I think It mostly evaporated. cant wait to give it a try
