Best Answer

The amount of time it takes depends on the amount of cream being churned. You can make butter by hand even now by placing 1 cup of heavy cream in an empty quart jar with a tight fitting lid (mayo jars work well) and shaking it up and down rapidly, occasionally scraping down the sides. This takes a few people to pass it around as muscles tire but after about an hour you have sweet cream butter. It will be white. You can also use a mixer and keep running the beaters past the whipped cream stage and it will become butter.
