Butter Production.

 

At the separation stage of the process, excess cream from the milk is used to make butter. The cream goes through the Pasteurization process and is heated to a temperature of 185 degrees Fahrenheit and then cooled to less than 40 degrees. It is stored in a cream storage tank and aged for approximately 8 hours before butter making. The cream is then sent to the butter churn.

The Churning process takes 45 minutes, salt is added and numerous quality tests are conducted to ready the product for packaging. Once complete the butter is pumped from the butter churn into the packaging machine to fill various sizes that are available in the market today.
