The handle connects with the dash. By twisting the handle the dash inside is made revolve. On the lid is a hole covered with glass. There are a few upright churns (dash churns) in district. At the bottom of each churn is a hole with a plug in it. The butter milk is let out through this hole.

When the glass on the lid is clean the butter is made - Then it is gatheredPisreógaEvery person in the house has to "take the churn". If not it would be hard to finish the churning & the butter would be scarce.
If a person (stranger) enters the house during the churning he has to "take the churn" for a few moments.
If a person come to the house for the loan of anything during the churning he would not get it lest he would take away the butter.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
