Know before you buy
The water seal creates an airtight barrier that prevents oxygen from reaching the butter. This keeps it soft and spreadable at room temperature while protecting it from spoilage for up to 30 days.
This keeper has a capacity of approximately 3/4 cup, which is equivalent to 1.5 sticks of butter.
Yes, it is crafted from durable American stoneware designed for everyday kitchen tasks. It is fully oven, microwave, and dishwasher safe.
For the best results, we recommend refreshing the water every two to three days. Using cool, fresh water helps maintain the seal and keeps the butter tasting its best.
The Silo Butter Keeper is made from high-quality, wheel-thrown stoneware, which is known for its density and durability. While it is robust, it should be handled with the same care as any other fine ceramic piece to avoid impact damage.
