You guys are so adorable! Have you ever tried making your own soap? I am an artisan soap maker and was wondering if there was a Swedish recipe for soap making? My Instagram is @soaptreehandmade if you want to take a look :). Hope you and Ivar are doing well guys :)
@@adriennerandall675Those looked like nice soaps! Yes, we made some soap at the school where we met, also some salves and lotions. We would like to produce something like this on a very small scale for sale, but the regulations and fees when it comes to pruducing stuff like this in sweden is insane.
@@Talasbuan You are already on a roll with your vlog! That Christmas market would be perfect for selling things like this, I didn’t realise the laws were so strict there? What’s the weather like right now? We are in Australian summer 🌺
When I was very young, my sister would take me to this small shop not far from our home. In this shop, a man made butter to sell to the locals. I remember standing in a queue of women, all chatting about this and that, and smiles on their faces, that got bigger, when they looked towards the shop keeper working the butter into shapes - with wooden patters - of different sizes to meet the desire of each customer. The paper wrapping was crinkly, with an opaque whitish colour, his name stamped on it, encircled with a single dark line. It was the tastiest butter...I ever tasted. The memory of those beautiful smiling woman, and the butter maker that gave them a reason to smile, has stayed with me to this day, and has not diminished in clarity or emotion. It still makes me smile a smile only the sun can. A smile of life. I have never tasted butter as tasty since.
I had a feeling you guys followed the weston a price way of eating. I love their foundation. It's changed my life. After I heard a podcast with Sally Fallon about why we need animal fats, especially women and why its good for our hormones I immediately started cooking with butter and I changed my whole diet. From being vegetarian to eating nutrient dense foods.
New to your channel. May I say I find you both so courageous, as well as strong willed. Much love for each other. You truly are a team. I am reminded of how much we depend on our animals, and how much they depend on us. Your kindness and hard work will surely be rewarded. God bless
Your timber work is amazing. The porch will be a great place to keep the weather off of you when you enter/exit and allow the house to stay warm. Also extra storage and a place to keep your wet and dirty boots.
I have been watching your vlogs for only a couple of weeks and it takes me back to a time in my life where I lived on a property with goats, snakes, dogs, ducks and chickens. We lived in a shed with composting toilet and outdoor kitchen for over 4 years as we build our own home (Queensland - Australia). I recall the absolute tiredness and satisfaction of living simply and close to nature. My daughter grew up in that space and claims it was like a never ending camping trip. This is a statement of a youth well spent. Since starting your vlogs, I am constantly telling my friends "Talasbuan, get on it". My lifestyle is different now and I miss the old place. I cannot tell you how calming and beautiful I find your vlog. It is a balm for my spirit and soul. You have inspired us - My husband and I plan to build an outdoor kitchen in our back yard and get into some slow cooking and definitely some pulled pork. One day we would love to travel to Sweden and hire a van and drop by for a taste of that butter and to lend our hands to your many jobs. It is a very long way (and covid 19 is an added problem) but you feel like close friends to us since you are in our lounge rooms on this vlog so often. Respect to you both xx
Another amazing vlog. Without electric machinery, using the old utensils you make everything look so natural and easy. I don't mean it's easy to hand crank the milk separator, or the butter churn, but you make using the machinery look easy. You are both a pleasure to watch, and live a lifestyle I envy so much. One day I'll be making my own cream and butter, and cheese, and I'll buy the hand machinery, and do it the old way like you guys. :)
Thank you so much! I really like the old machinery, so practical and still beautiful to watch :) I hope you find some machinery and can make your own products, not so hard when you get at it ;) Have a wonderful weekend! /Tova
@@carolconny2763 I'm heading out to Bulgaria in the next month to find a large property up in the Balkan Mountains, leaving the UK, enough is enough, time to set up a smallholding in a country with a slower, much cheaper, way of life. :)
Are you thinking of buying out in Bulgaria too Carol? I'll give you my email address rather than clog up these guys thread. :) admin_disqworld@hotmail.com
The article on butter was extremely interesting and eye opening to read! Second new thing I have learned from watching this vlog. Other new thing I learned was what cured meat was. I had no idea that some meats weren’t “cooked” like ham. That they were salted and dried. Until this week. And I am 36. Thankyou for sharing this information. We are so disconnected from our food in the modern world, it’s sad how many people are conditioned to not give it a second thought.
When I was a child I lived in Missouri which is in the middle of the U. S. I never cared for fresh milk or butter. Now, as an adult living in one of the dairy states I love cheese, fresh milk and only butter. I was not aware you needed to rinse the better. Thank you for my lesson today. Thank you so much!
So special to see you using a separator for the milk! I remember helping my cousin doing this in the coolroom off their old farmhouse in the Australian bush back in the 60s. That was every morning after the cows were milked. How we hated the process of putting the machinery together first, then having to dismantle everything and clean it at the end!
Beautifully done! I'm off grid in Califorina and reciently downsized and sold my goats. I miss them and the fresh milk so much. I love watching your farm grow and prosper, you two compliment each other very well.
Lovely video, the butter making scene could not have been more perfect with all the natural sounds. As a child I use to hand milk the cows and separate the milk. My least favorite part, the cleaning of the separater discs.😄 The butter churn was a large glass container with the paddles attached to the lid. Nothing is quite as good as fresh butter! Enjoy your vlogs immensely, they remind us all of how beautiful living with nature and enjoying the moment can be, quite an inspiration.
I love your channel, new subbie here! I started watching from the oldest one! I just feel so much relax and emotional too after watching your videos. Much love from India 🇮🇳
It is amazing watching similar videos from North America and your videos, you show affection and I never saw showing affection between couples from North American. I love seeing your honesty and your openness.
LOve you butter churn, very different from what I have. We just got a dairy heifer, she is Jersey Guernsey cross and is beautiful. We had a Jersey cow doe 12 years and she passed at age 18 years old. It too 6 years to be able to afford another, the dairy cows have skyrocketed to as high as $3,000.00 each here in parts of the USA. We'll wait until she's a year old or year and a half old to breed her, but looking forward to butter again. We have goats for milk and cheese but butter is harder to get from goat's milk. I used to let my cream culture overnight or if cooler weather for a day, then churn, the flavor is much better than fresh cream butter. Your entry is looking great. Blessings for your coming days.
Oh i long to have cows too! How do your churn looks like? Yes, we add some sour milk in the cream and wait for three days so the butter will have a good "sour" taste :D Thank you so much for watching and have a lovely day!
@@Talasbuan , Our churn is a two gallon glass jar with a hand crank. the shaft and paddle goes into the jar and it turns inside the jar. If you have an email I can share pictures of the churn and our cow. :)
Another stellar video! Thank you for the work that you do to provide such wonderful videos. I think that you were searching for the word RICOTTA when you were talking about cheeses. One of your Swedish words sounded like it. I am in the US and have fallen in love with the two of you and your vlogs. I am currently binge-watching them and this is the last one that I have seen. I hope that you will see this comment as it is heartfelt. I also thank you for the article about the health benefits of butter. It was very informative.
Good suggestion of attaching your butter churner to a bicycle and just sitting on the bike and churning! Also - the platform in front of your porch/hallway/front room area is called a veranda - which is an open or covered area as an integral part of your house or skirting around the whole house - it's a wonderful outdoor room, in affect. Hope this helps and I love watching your vlogs - thank you.
Perhaps he bike idea might be good for generating small amounts of power as well, maybe for some sort of washing machine? Then again, you may not have the calories to burn after all your hard physical labor you do around the farm!
Seeing you put the cream separator together took me back about 55 yrs. That used to be my job!! I measured my growth as to when I could finally look into the milk container on top
Thankyou for sharing your daily chores, it's easy to store ghee for longer period which is made from butter, just a piece of advice. Thank you once again.
I was very interested to hear your strategy with log construction. Very clever to work the upper tiers while they are lower and accessible. How beautiful are the finished logs! I'm surprised at the portability of a log home.
I can’t wait to see this all built! I know it takes time...this is an older vid, so I’m sure you have done more. Anyway, we call it severe things as well, all was correct except, we call our front room our main living part of the house. So it’s not a front room. Entryway, or mud room is correct.
some delay sound issue and image with this video. Not criticizing, but I think you guys may want to know, as I would like to know also if my videos were failing and I'm noticing it. Thanks :)
haven't bought butter with salt in a while. you might try some of your homemade butter without salt, see if you can tell the difference. Beautiful outcome of butter. You're right about it takes a lot of milk to make 3 kilos of butter.
Nice! Now its raining again, i think we got the only sunshine for weeks in that video. Soon it will grow mushrooms out of my ears if it rains any more ;P Have a wonderful weekend Chantal!
Butter is life! I'm only happy if i can see my teeth marks in the butter I'm eating. I've told all my friends about your vlog. Much respect from here in New Zealand.
Oh WOW......... that is a blast from the past for me.............. milking the cows and separating the milk and cream - just watching you putting it all together. without watching the video..........
Here in the US we have to pay more for buttermilk than for regular milk. ..... to make biscuits, cakes and baking. It’s soooo good! YOUR BUTTER LOOKS SOOOO DELICIOUS 😋
had on this while I was studying, saw you test the butter on the sandwich and was inspired .. decided to pause studying and watching. went and made teacakes and now I continue studying and watching with freshly baked bread for lunch. xD
Why is there a bell on the cream separator? Thanks! Oh, and I love the way you are doing new construction on the old building. It looks like it will turn out great.
I have some SprouterNickel and local 2.5 lb Rye which that home made butter would go great with !! Did I see a roof on your house ? Butter is no different from cheese when it comes to nutrition.I like your ‘board and batten’ siding.The trick when it comes to milking sheep is to move the stand inside with a ramp. Then you build a grain box that they will happily feed on while you milk them. By shaking grain in a can they will soon be jumping up the ramp .
"När kameran står still, solen far ut och in, då växer det skägghår mitt i". (sammanfattning av konversationen) Hahahaha ni är helt underbara! :) All the tasty things you can get from milk.. I totally agree with that butter with bread-thing! Favorite scene (among many) is when the chicken is let loose. -TO TOWN EVERYONE! :) May and June, the months of light and life. You caught that real good in this vlog. The timber house is going to be awesome, you really got some skills Mathias with the axe and chainsaw. Thanx for sharing guys! :)
Haha, tackar ;D Yes its so fun to watch the "chicken run", to freedom y´all! Tyvärr gör vädret att de stannar inne mycket nu, regn är ingen favorit direkt, ingen hit att bli blöt om fjädrarna :D Din semester låter fin, varför just Ytterhogdal? Ha en fin helg!
@@Talasbuan Ytterhogdal är liksom porten ut ur Hälsingland och där kan man välja åt vilket håll man vill fara.. Mot Ånge över skogen, eller mot Åsarna och Ljungdalen. Vill inte åka de stora vägarna, jag vill vara i naturen. :) Ha en fin helg ni med!
It would seem I spoke to soon about the house sorry for that, nevertheless she is still a lovely lady with a beautiful smile and a hard worker get that ring on her finger. bless you both carry on with the vids.
Another treat and a perfect way to enjoy morning coffee withTalasbuan but no homemade butter😕...yet. Now I see why cheese from sheep milk is so expensive, so little from 2 sheep. Good plan on how to build the farstu. Everyday a little bit closer to Tova moving the furniture into your new house. Great video again, tack.
Ahh thank you! Do you have the possibility to get homemade butter from your surrounding? Cant wait for the furniture to move in ;) Have a lovely weekend!
@@Talasbuan I have organic low temperature pasteurized cream from jersey cows available, the milk is incredible. After watching you make butter I'm going to try it myself, a little smaller quantity to start.
Thank you again. Is that farstu different to veranda? Kuisti, veranta or porstua (porch) like we call it in Finland? We have also word tuulikaappi what is like ”wind closet” in English and built to more in to the modern houses. In fact I think it’s some kind of law here to include ”tuulikaappi” when building new houses for more energy sufficient buildings. I don’t know about that but the meaning is the same in the old houses I think. Not to loose heat from the cabin witch is wery important here in winter and for the boots and other outwear stuff to keep the cabin clean. It’s also good for storaging food in the winter. Some people use it also like summer dining room. But that’s usually more like villa style I think. Butter was wery good looking. It’s good to remind yourself how much milk it takes to get one kilo butter. And a lot of work too. - Tessa
Yes, farstu is a room in the house, but used for having outer clothing and shoes in, veranda for me is outside with a roof on, sort of :D Seems like tuulikaappi are a good word to use for what we are building, but it will open straight into the house so i guess it isn't that sufficient for keeping energy! Do you also make butter? :) /Tova
Talasbuan Thanks for answering. I think we have lot of common what comes to old log buildings but also differencies in architecture like we have here between places. I don’t make or haven’t made butter but I have been following butter making from near. I have never had so much milk to do that so I have rather made cheese and fil and been satisfied to buy butter from grocery. Luckily we have good eco butter there too. -Tessa
Scaffolding This is the word for the construction you use when building and you need something next to it, so you can climb on it to reach the higher places.
I make butter with heavy cream in mason jar shake for about 6 minutes and you have butter and I make bread pizza and biscuits with yoghurt and self rising floor its so good
All food is just a vehicle for transporting butter to my mouth!!! 😂 Fabulous video once again! I must admit, I too am curious about the foundation on your log home and how it will be supported and what will the floor be like inside? Happy 🇨🇦 Day!!! Cheers
Sounds very reasonable!! There are a lot of problems with timber houses sinking into the ground, but we have made deep holes and put rocks in them and on top that the support stones. hopefully it will keep the house from moving with the ground frost. We will put the floor on floor beams that are fastened in the lowest timber logs.Then for insulation we will use a special kind of technique, hard to explain bc i don't know the word for it, but we will show it in future vlogs! :) The floor boards will be made from scratch by us using spruce or if we find an old old floor we can reuse :D Have a lovely weekend Sandy!
Thank you so much for explaining the foundation as I couldn’t understand it. It makes sense now. I really am enjoying seeing all the progress you both are making around the property. A lot of hard work but it will all pay off, someday very soon. :) Have a wonderful weekend Tova & Mathias.
beautiful video and the butter indeed looks veery delicious! I am not so sure about that article about butter consumption though, the website does not look very reliable
Thank you! Yes it's incredibly delicious. Real butter from real cows eating real grass is one of the most nutrient dense food on the planet. The Weston a price foundation is very meticulous with what they are recomending about food and health. They base their recommendations on scientific studies and research about what people ate before the industry started to create all this poisonous crap we're eating today. I personally find their information one of the most trustworthy out there. Here is more about the weston a price foundation:www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/abcs-of-nutrition/principles-of-healthy-diets-2/ Here is a very intresting talk from one of their founders: Part one ruclips.net/video/LJS4yKhJcu4/видео.html Part two ruclips.net/video/NvGZzRPU9KU/видео.html

The memory of those beautiful smiling woman, and the butter maker that gave them a reason to smile, has stayed with me to this day, and has not diminished in clarity or emotion. It still makes me smile a smile only the sun can. A smile of life. I have never tasted butter as tasty since.

@@Talasbuan you too...hope you have a dryer weekend and a good one ☀️🌞☀️🌞☀️🌞☀️
Lol, hysterical, I understand completely
Butter is life! I'm only happy if i can see my teeth marks in the butter I'm eating. I've told all my friends about your vlog. Much respect from here in New Zealand.
Oh WOW......... that is a blast from the past for me.............. milking the cows and separating the milk and cream - just watching you putting it all together. without watching the video..........
Thank you Kathryn, its a really cool process and the end result are fantastic :D
I do really enjoy watching your video thanks for sharing.
Can you believe they used to do it by hand. Not that what you did was easy because no it was not. That butter looked amazing.
I really enjoy to se how you guys leave I love it very peaceful my support to your Chanel
What a great idea to build a few layers of logs, then build another few layers on the ground.
Wow!! I want some of that butter! I used to watch my great grandmother churn butter.
Here in the US we have to pay more for buttermilk than for regular milk. ..... to make biscuits, cakes and baking. It’s soooo good! YOUR BUTTER LOOKS SOOOO DELICIOUS 😋
As a youngster we used to make butter by shaking a jar of cream from Jersey cows. You have a nice set of tools there to help you.
Lovely! Fat and good milk from Jersey!
wonderful video...really enjoy everyone.....
Thank you Harriet!
had on this while I was studying, saw you test the butter on the sandwich and was inspired .. decided to pause studying and watching. went and made teacakes and now I continue studying and watching with freshly baked bread for lunch. xD
Good luck keep up the good work!!
Thanks Bill!!
Why is there a bell on the cream separator? Thanks! Oh, and I love the way you are doing new construction on the old building. It looks like it will turn out great.
The butter looks fantastic .
It tasted fantastic too ;)
I have some SprouterNickel and local 2.5 lb Rye which that home made butter would go great with !! Did I see a roof on your house ? Butter is no different from cheese when it comes to nutrition.I like your ‘board and batten’ siding.The trick when it comes to milking sheep is to move the stand inside with a ramp. Then you build a grain box that they will happily feed on while you milk them. By shaking grain in a can they will soon be jumping up the ramp .
"När kameran står still, solen far ut och in, då växer det skägghår mitt i". (sammanfattning av konversationen) Hahahaha ni är helt underbara! :) All the tasty things you can get from milk.. I totally agree with that butter with bread-thing! Favorite scene (among many) is when the chicken is let loose. -TO TOWN EVERYONE! :) May and June, the months of light and life. You caught that real good in this vlog. The timber house is going to be awesome, you really got some skills Mathias with the axe and chainsaw. Thanx for sharing guys! :)
Haha, tackar ;D Yes its so fun to watch the "chicken run", to freedom y´all! Tyvärr gör vädret att de stannar inne mycket nu, regn är ingen favorit direkt, ingen hit att bli blöt om fjädrarna :D
Din semester låter fin, varför just Ytterhogdal?
Ha en fin helg!
@@Talasbuan Ytterhogdal är liksom porten ut ur Hälsingland och där kan man välja åt vilket håll man vill fara.. Mot Ånge över skogen, eller mot Åsarna och Ljungdalen. Vill inte åka de stora vägarna, jag vill vara i naturen. :) Ha en fin helg ni med!
Hienoa nähdä voin tekeminen käsin ja on varmasti hyvää. I am sure that a butter is very good! Te olette taitavia molemmat. You are booth so skillful.
Love watching! I have a Jersey that I milk, love the butter. Your churn is interesting have never seen one like it :)
It would seem I spoke to soon about the house sorry for that, nevertheless she is still a lovely lady with a beautiful smile and a hard worker get that ring on her finger.
bless you both carry on with the vids.
Thank you :) Have a lovely weekend!
Another treat and a perfect way to enjoy morning coffee withTalasbuan but no homemade butter😕...yet. Now I see why cheese from sheep milk is so expensive, so little from 2 sheep. Good plan on how to build the farstu. Everyday a little bit closer to Tova moving the furniture into your new house. Great video again, tack.
Ahh thank you! Do you have the possibility to get homemade butter from your surrounding? Cant wait for the furniture to move in ;) Have a lovely weekend!
@@Talasbuan I have organic low temperature pasteurized cream from jersey cows available, the milk is incredible. After watching you make butter I'm going to try it myself, a little smaller quantity to start.
Another great video!
Thank you Brian!
Relationship goals 👍🌹
The butter looks very nice. Health in your hand. Best wishes.
New subscriber to your channel. Your videos ease my life..adore your lifestyle
Subbed 2 days ago. Working through your back log while I’m a little under the weather. Very nice. I’m tempted to skip ahead!
Thank you again.
Is that farstu different to veranda? Kuisti, veranta or porstua (porch) like we call it in Finland? We have also word tuulikaappi what is like ”wind closet” in English and built to more in to the modern houses. In fact I think it’s some kind of law here to include ”tuulikaappi” when building new houses for more energy sufficient buildings. I don’t know about that but the meaning is the same in the old houses I think. Not to loose heat from the cabin witch is wery important here in winter and for the boots and other outwear stuff to keep the cabin clean. It’s also good for storaging food in the winter. Some people use it also like summer dining room. But that’s usually more like villa style I think.
Butter was wery good looking. It’s good to remind yourself how much milk it takes to get one kilo butter. And a lot of work too. - Tessa
Yes, farstu is a room in the house, but used for having outer clothing and shoes in, veranda for me is outside with a roof on, sort of :D Seems like tuulikaappi are a good word to use for what we are building, but it will open straight into the house so i guess it isn't that sufficient for keeping energy! Do you also make butter? :) /Tova
Talasbuan Thanks for answering. I think we have lot of common what comes to old log buildings but also differencies in architecture like we have here between places.
I don’t make or haven’t made butter but I have been following butter making from near. I have never had so much milk to do that so I have rather made cheese and fil and been satisfied to buy butter from grocery. Luckily we have good eco butter there too. -Tessa
Make it to we're your drill will fit on and do the turning for you..I love y'alls video's..y'all are wonderful people
Scaffolding
This is the word for the construction you use when building and you need something next to it, so you can climb on it to reach the higher places.
I make butter with heavy cream in mason jar shake for about 6 minutes and you have butter and I make bread pizza and biscuits with yoghurt and self rising floor its so good
*Mathias:* You can never eat too much butter.
*Me:* Challenge accepted!
All food is just a vehicle for transporting butter to my mouth!!! 😂 Fabulous video once again! I must admit, I too am curious about the foundation on your log home and how it will be supported and what will the floor be like inside? Happy 🇨🇦 Day!!! Cheers
Sounds very reasonable!! There are a lot of problems with timber houses sinking into the ground, but we have made deep holes and put rocks in them and on top that the support stones. hopefully it will keep the house from moving with the ground frost. We will put the floor on floor beams that are fastened in the lowest timber logs.Then for insulation we will use a special kind of technique, hard to explain bc i don't know the word for it, but we will show it in future vlogs! :) The floor boards will be made from scratch by us using spruce or if we find an old old floor we can reuse :D Have a lovely weekend Sandy!
Thank you so much for explaining the foundation as I couldn’t understand it. It makes sense now. I really am enjoying seeing all the progress you both are making around the property. A lot of hard work but it will all pay off, someday very soon. :) Have a wonderful weekend Tova & Mathias.
beautiful video and the butter indeed looks veery delicious! I am not so sure about that article about butter consumption though, the website does not look very reliable
Thank you! Yes it's incredibly delicious. Real butter from real cows eating real grass is one of the most nutrient dense food on the planet.
The Weston a price foundation is very meticulous with what they are recomending about food and health. They base their recommendations on scientific studies and research about what people ate before the industry started to create all this poisonous crap we're eating today. I personally find their information one of the most trustworthy out there.

Here is a very intresting talk from one of their founders:
