The Science Behind the Magical Butter Separator: How it Works

The magical butter separator is a revolutionary kitchen gadget that makes the process of separating butter from its water content quick and effortless. The main idea here is the convenience and ease with which the separator accomplishes this task. Traditionally, separating butter involved a time-consuming process of churning or using cheesecloth to separate the liquid from the solid. However, the magical butter separator changes all that. This innovative device is designed to separate butter in just a matter of minutes, saving both time and effort in the kitchen. The separator works by simply pouring melted butter into the container and allowing it to cool.

With the Magical Butter Machine you can infuse cannabis into almost anything. The easy to use two button system makes operation simple, and its high quality stainless steel construction means the magical butter machine will last the distance.

Furthermore, you re not confined to just making edibles as the Magical Butter Machine can also be used to produce infused topicals, balms, lotions and even tinctures, too. After kinda flubbing my 196 proof tinc it s recovered, but I have no clue what the strength is, but it leaves a green film behind on glass and stainless steel, so I think it s kinda strong I did more reading.

The separator works by simply pouring melted butter into the container and allowing it to cool. As the butter cools, the water content naturally separates and settles at the bottom, while the solid butter remains at the top. Once the separation process is complete, all that's left to do is pour out the water and enjoy the perfectly separated butter.

Ive been making both budders for awhile now. Butter and coco or butter won't mix with water, and will separate at room temp. So when you want to make something, but don't have enough for the 2 cup minimum, use what you have and put in as much water as you want. So if you have enough abv for 1 cup of product, use that and the 1 cup, and top with water so the MB is at least at it's min, but it won't matter if you go to 'max' either. When the cycle is done pour into a curve-sided container and put in the fridge for awhile, til the top layer is solid. Press down on one side and the other will flip up - thats your good stuff. The watery goop on the bottom can get dumped. You might have to remelt and refilter your disk, depending on how well it was filtered the first time.

I made tincture with Everclear in mine - the second thing I ever made, and all the EC boiled off. I'm at 1300 ft above sea level. MB tech support told me to add 1/4 cup of demineralized water to the EC mix to avoid evaporation. Water won't hurt the MB either.

I have to go find some pipettes. I got the pill machine yesterday and spent a bit of time playing with it. This one has a spring-loaded top and bottom, so you get exert some pressure to ensure the caps stay together. I'm looking forward to trying this out!

Except the instructions for the mb explicitly say not to add water. You got specific instructions to add a limited amount of water because of your altitude, that doesn't mean anyone can add as much water as they like. So unless the manufacturer comes on and says its actually not a problem, I think I'll stay safe and follow their instructions.

@Biznatch Then you should continue making larger batches and stick to the directions completely. But from a common sense perspective if alcohol, butter, oil, whatever can work in there without issue, so will water. It's not rocket science. The biggest difference between this and a slow cooker is the immersion blender fitting and more temp controls. And some led lighting.

I like using the forums to know if I'm on the right track with something, and also to learn and share new ideas. If you don't like learning new ways to get more value out of your widgets that's really your own personal direction.

The MB machine directions also doesn't state to use it outdoors when it's evaporating hot alcohol. Check with any firefighter about what you should be doing when working around hot alcohol fumes some time. Hint - it's much worse than hot water fumes.

@Biznatch, What I've noticed with the Magical Butter Maker, the company keeps changing the directions on this machine. I'll think I need to do it a certain way then I find out that the directions have changed again. You need to read the instructions online to be up to date. Don't assume the directions with the unit are correct.

FC is a place where we exchange ideas. You can use the info or not. Thanks @killick I may decide to add water next time I use the magical butter maker. I would also reuse the same butter or oil to increase the potency, if it wasn't strong enough. That tidbit of info is not in the instructions either, but I think it's a helpful suggestion.

Open up to some of the suggestions the members have, you may actually learn something in the process. Do what you think is best.

@CarolKing re the double-batching - I made a 2 cup batch of MCT oil as the very first thing I did with the machine. It wasn't all decarbed, and I thought the '160 at 1 hour' setting was too short, so I did it for 4 hours at 210. It was pretty good.

Then I found the Facebook forum, 'Magical Butter Users United', and learned *a lot* on there. IE don't trust the decarb as it's so narrow, do multiple runs with the same ingredients, do long soaks between multiple runs for some things, open it up midway to check and make sure you are happy with it, then restart, etc, etc. Lots of great info and helpful people on there as well.

After kinda flubbing my 196 proof tinc (it's recovered, but I have no clue what the strength is, but it leaves a green film behind on glass and stainless steel, so I think it's kinda strong) I did more reading. I put my 2 cups of pre-MB'd MCT oil back into the MB, added the remaining 2 cups of MCT oil and 50g decarbed bud, and ran a 4 hour 200 tinc session, followed by a 1 hour butter at 160. From the ~50g of herb there is maybe 1/2 inch of goop on the bottom. The rest of the herb is embedded in the MCT oil. It tastes fantastic! I put 3 tablespoons in 3/4 cup of coffee, then topped with milk - delicious happy brekkie drink

@Biznatch I didn't mean to come across as grumpy, but people that tend to follow direction well tend not to spend a ton of time on marijuana forums, so I was a bit startled. To each their own. Deel free to ask away about anything in the forums, and lots of people will be happy to share their knowledge - it's what makes the interweb so great, and this part of it so special!

PS - since separating the sludge from the MCT oil I wanst sure what to do with the sludge, but tossing it seemed wasteful. I now have a bunch of 00 cannacaps. They work great! A couple of caps in the am, plus a coffee or tea with enhanced MCT oil, and I'm off to a great start to the day!

The MB machine is a great addition to the kitchen and will save a lot of processing time each month.

I'm finally getting around to this again. I have lets say a few quarts each of sugar trim and abv. I washed a bunch of the abv and dried it but then said screw it I'm mainly after cannacaps, taste isn't the priority so I am also using the unwashed abv. I have a big tub of coconut oil that's a a bit dated but seems okay.

I put a cup or two of oil, a bunch of the trim/abv, a splash of water, and a dollop of sunflower lecithin in the mbm, and fired it up at 190f for two hours. I was surprised that there was a couple of burnt spots, decided that it prolly needs more water next time. Repeated with mostly fresh oil, and was on hand to monitor.

I thought it was odd that the mbm boils liquids on the 190f setting!? It was clearly bubbling the liquid after just 10-15 minutes so I changed the heat setting to 160f for the second batch, which is the recommended oil temperature anyways. Boiling temperature is 212f, so it's not surprising that this thing can burn.

My plan is to re-use the oil as mach as possible in subsequent batches as I plow through this material, making it as strong as possible so the higher temp seemed justified at first but 160f it is from now on. I have been using a combination of fine mesh strainer for dripping and cheesecloth for squeezing.

I have a pill maker and a bunch of empty gelatin capsules, I may try using a pet syringe or something to keep from making a big mess. I've never made capsules of any kind and would like to keep these as clean as possible, so any suggestions would be appreciated!

Reviews for "The Magical Revolution: How the Magical Butter Separator is Changing the Way We Cook"

1. Kelly - 2 stars - I was really excited to use the Magical butter separator, but I was disappointed with the results. The separator was difficult to clean and left a greasy residue that was hard to remove. Additionally, it didn't separate the butter as effectively as I had hoped, leaving chunks of herbs and other ingredients in the final product. I ended up having to strain the butter again, defeating the purpose of using the separator in the first place. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product.

2. Mike - 1 star - I thought the Magical butter separator would make my life easier, but it only added more frustration. The separator was flimsy and fell apart easily while in use. It was also difficult to assemble and took a lot of time and effort to get it to work properly. Even when I was able to use it, it didn't effectively separate the butter from the other ingredients, leaving a gritty texture. I regret purchasing this product and wish I had found a better alternative.

3. Sarah - 3 stars - I had high hopes for the Magical butter separator, but it fell short of my expectations. While it did separate the butter, it was a messy process and took longer than I anticipated. The instructions were not very clear, making it difficult to assemble and use the separator correctly. I also had trouble with the durability of the product, as it started to show signs of wear and tear after just a few uses. Overall, I think there are better options available for separating butter and would advise others to explore alternative products.
