Yeah, seems that way.. There is a double-blade on the one I have, and contaner
that it goes into is about a 3 Cup measure I think.. could be more or less,
haven't measured it yet :) Lazy hot day today and I don't feel like moving to
check it out at the momemt (VBG).

That, I suspect, is in the hands of the "operator".. :) well, you know, if you
want whipped cream, when you see cream is whipped, check to see if it's
"done".. if you didn't check, or just let 'er go for a long time, I imagine
you'd get butter solids.. maybe :)  Don't you need cold for butter as well?
I've never used a churn ..

well I checked, and the milk for a churn is cool, but not cold by any means :)

Oh I am the same way.  I hadn't see the thing on TV before.. interesting (g). I
sent Ron out to get another chopper type thingy for me when my very old oskar
chopper died at an inopportune moment hehe.. He went alone and returned with
the Ninja.  I wonder if I'd seen the ads on TV, and had gone with him if I
would have given it a try hehe

Take care,
Janis
