Fig. 246.âWhipple's Rectangular Churn. for aeration while churnino-. The effect upon the cream is so thoroui)h ami uniform in this churn that the butter " comes 'â¢" all at once. It is especially adapted to prevent ovei"-churning, and to facilitate the method of washino- and salting the butter in its granular form. AVhen the butter passes the mustard-seed condition and begins to form larger granules, the tendency in this churn is for the heavier buttermilk to be thrown into the cone-ends, while the butter is buoyed off and does not, as a rule, come in contact with the tin. At this stage, when the particles become the size of wheat-grains, the churning ceases, and some cold water or clear brine is poured in ; then, after a gentle motion to wash and harden the butter grains, a large cork which during the chuniing closes an opening in the end opposite the handle is removed, and a metallic tidjular strainer inserted, through which the buttermilk is drawn off, by tilting the churn and taking a half-hitch around the handle with the nearest swing cord. The ojjerator replaces the churn, adds water, washes the butter by shaking ihe chum, and draws it off as before, repeating until the water comes off clear. The butter may be hnally removed with a wire dip-strainer while floating upon water in the churn, salted and set away for final manipula- tion while still in the granular form. The large opening to the churn, its form, general simplicity, and material enable it to be very easily handled and cleaned, and it is one of the cheapest of good churns. \Mien not in use it occupies no floor room, l)ut it is readily hung up out of the way.
