  • Tips: Make sure the crock lid is clean and DRY before using. In hotter climates or when the temperature in the room is over 70F, 10 to 15 minutes out of the refrigerator should be enough time to soften. Over-softened butter is the most common cause for butter falling into the water. Refresh your cold bottled or filtered water every day if possible, and be sure to place your butter crock in a spot away from heat sources such as the stove and out of direct sunlight.
