To churn, you must first scald the churn and then you rinse it well with cold water. Then you put the cream into the churn and you add cold water if it is needed, and you add hot water if heat is needed. You keep on churning until the butter appears on the top of the milk. Then the butter is taken out with butter-spades and made into pound rolls.- Collector
