Are there holes inside the butter lid that help the water to stay in contact with the butter and keep it from being sucked out when you open it?

There are no holes inside the lid. Not necessary. The seal the water gives keeps the butter fresh. I just make sure i change the water every 3 days or so. I have not had butter go bad; even once...and it's only me that uses it.

There are no holes. If the butter is packed tightly when first added, I don't have problems. I've had the butter fall out of the lid into the water only once.

Yes, it has a hole and on the bottom has a cap that hold the water that fall into the hole. hope helps

No. If you put the butter in so it does not protrude over the top rim it will stay dry.

no, there is a hole in the top. it is leak proof along the edge, allow the user to drink out of it like a travel mug. if you want something totally leak proof just use a normal mason jar lid.

I have never had that happen. Are you using real butter not the imitation stuff? I fill the water up to the Mark. Pack the butter in the top & put the top on. I have never had it suction before.

No holes per say, but it does have small clearances between the lid and box so that the lid can open and close easily. It is not airtight, and it shouldn't be from what I understand. That said we have no problem with bugs, but our house is quite bug-free. Good luck.

It has a rubber seal for the top lid closure which works very well. I have had mine in pretty deep. I do recommend adding a little silicone to the holes when you bolt it to your rack, which will keep water from coming up through your holes you drill.

The butter might come in contact with the water depending on how much butter is in the bowl. Because of the fat in butter what little water is there just beads up and is not enough to be concerned about. I don't do anything about it, I just use it as is. Hope that helps.

No need to worry - there may be a droplet of water or two left, but nothing to bother with. You can always dodge water when you're messing with butter ;)

The handle is welded onto the lid so there are no holes. I have had no issues with water leaking in.

This keeper will hold one typical stick of (salted/un-salted) butter. I found that olive oil based butter doesn't have the consistency to hold in the keeper when the lid is flipped upside down. You'll end up with buttery water. lol

As far as I know, the holes are for the juice to fall into the bottom part. If the holes are used for some other purpose, I am not aware of it.

I have never had that happen. I push room temperature butter into the dish with the back of a spoon, fill the water just up to the fill mark (about 3/4 inch I guess) and it lifts out without a suction. Is the piece that holds the butter really tight in the bottom piece? If so, perhaps yours is defective because there should be a little room so it slips out easily. I don't remember if they protected it with something but if there is any plastic on either piece it should be removed. Good luck.

nah, don't believe so. Mine doesn't. Just enough water to hit the edge of the dish - and the butter isn't sticking out of that.

Actually the hole is not there to let steam escape, but rather to let air in. You've probably had the lid of a pan (or slow cooker) get "stuck" after you heat the food, then let the pan cool with the lid on. The lid gets stuck because a partial vacuum forms in the pan as it cools. When there's a hole in the lid, a partial vacuum can't form because the hole let's a small amount of air in. Because the air pressure is the same on each side of the lid, it won't get stuck.

No, the holes are covered. The holes would allow water to get undernearth the mat. They will not move and fit perfectly. hope this helps.

It is very important that you make sure you leave no air holes when you put the butter in the butter keeper. Smooch it in real good. It is what I do and I have never had a problem.
