Another chapter in the sage of using butter again instead of marg.
The main reason I stopped using it was because its too hard to be
convenient out of the fridge, and I dont like the purported softer butters.
So I thought I'd try keeping it out of the fridge in winter. Its winter here,
and it turns out to not be viable either, its still too hard. Thats with a room
temp of about 20C, 70F, and it gets lower than that on the coldest nights.
One obvious possibility is to use one of those very small camping fridges,
just for the butter and set it to the temperature thats ideal for the butter.
Those are normally peltier devices and can cool and warm.
Bit of an overkill just for the butter, but who cares,
it should last for decades, so the cost is pretty trivial.
The best ones are 12V and mains power too.
