I will be using this to make vegan butter sticks. Can anyone tell me what size (ounce-wise) the finished product would be?

Kind've an oxymoron Vegan-Butter; but the volume of the cavity is about 1/2 that of a quarter pound / 4 ounce butter stick.

A half of a cube of butter works perfect. If you put in more it does get messy. I love it because I do not usea lot of butter in my diet.

Just add a little cold water and stir. It's hard to tell the difference in taste from stick butter.

I just dip the back of my thumb nail into the jar .. I would guess 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon.. I don't think it needs to be an exact measure.

I am going to try to make my own too. I know there is a good recipe on wellnessmama.com check it out by doing a search on her site.

I used a ratio off 10 to 1 in a smaller spray bottle (an old WindEx bottle). That seemed to work just fine. Make sure you shake the Deer Out before you make your mixture in the smaller bottle.

I haven't opened my bag of Starwest Lavender for I have some other that I wanted to use first. Depending on the size of sachet your making and how full you want it to be. I made 6 x 6 inch sachets and filled them nice and full. For this size I would say at least six (perhaps more), but again I haven't used this particular bag. Hope this is helpful. Linda

I've had one of these for years. Mine is blue and yellow. It also takes the skinny east coast butter. For some reason they've never made one for west coast sized butter sticks.The trick is to store it by the veg crisper, in a less cold area, so that the butter isn't sooo cold that it won't dispense easily, or you'll have to take it out of the fridge a few minutes before use to let the butter warm up just a little.I love mine, I just wish it fit my California sized sticks [I'd buy another one if they ever make a west coast version]. But, it only takes a minute and a sharp, thin knife to trim about 3/8" from two sides of the cube and then put the trimmings on top. I've had one of these for years. Mine is blue and yellow.

I use large eggs; sometimes a bit squishes out the sides, but it doesn't affect the finished product. You could probably use medium, but def not extra large.

It barely fits normal sticks. So if they are 1.5 x 1.5 then sure. However I wouldn't keep it in the fridge unless you want to run the risk of breaking the mill when using it. It can't handle the force of cold butter.

5 1/4" long by 3" wide is the very closest I can get for you because the lines on the inside are slightly curved, but ever so slightly. I have two of these containers. I am able to put two butter sticks in one of them or a full 8 oz. cream cheese. I use the butter one daily and the cream cheese one on occasion when we are going to have bagels. So glad I have two of them. You will enjoy this item.

I use these to make my facial soaps and I use 24oz oil and it yields 35.47 oz . I never did bigger batches but you can work it out and see this works really great . No left overs exact.

Not without shaving it down. Sorry I can't remember exactly how much. I was a little disappointed that it didn't take a 1 lb. of butter. I went back to using the quarter sticks which it holds two sticks nicely. But I still love this butter dish and would recommend it. In fact I'm going to buy another as a house warming gift.

There are 3 sizes. One is for the small snack sticks, the next size is about the size of breakfast sausage and the larger one is for regular size sausage! I aw well pleased with mine! I use the snack stick most of the time and make my own snack stick from beef and deer, deer and wild hog. My family thinks I should sell my snack sticks but they don't last long enough!! They are gone almost as fast as I can make them!

Hi Izabel, these containers a very small, I bought them to put small amounts of my home made body butter in as gifts. They were perfect for that. They are 1.5 oz which is 1 1/2 tablespoons. They are very nice containers.

I sprayed a bit, but it seemed to not be necessary. Though, I did think the next time I use I will use a bit of the vegan (healthier butter) just to ad flavor. I thought of it as though if I made a grilled cheese in a nice pan and didn't need to use anything to prevent stick or if I added butter to make my grilled cheese, I personally would think the butter one tasted better. Hope this helps. I do feel the nonstick product would be enough without help.

I squeeze till its what the recipe called for. I dont think you can set it for a certian size
