maybe i wasn't packing it tight enough, but it would sometimes fall in the bottom when i used about half of it.

It's called a butter bell and yes it works. I would use it with a butter worth keeping like Kerrygold or a soft churned butter from market it really saves those flavors.
The greatest bonus from it is being able to get soft workable butter without having to soften it.

Butter in butter dish tend to lose flavor or pick up the smells of a room and become off putting.

That means that you're not packing it tightly enough into the bell. When filled properly the butter will not fall out. Another possibility is that the water or possibly the butter is too warm and needs to be a little cooler or your house is to hot.

i dont like the idea of the butter touching the water, sure you could leave an air pocket but still

Butter is waterproof, it doesn't absorb or anything. Just beads up and drips off.

If you want moldy butter (even if you change the water)? yes.

otherwise just keep your butter in a covered dish on the counter. it's shelf stable won't go rancid for a couple off weeks (though why you would not use a stick of butter in less than a couple of days I don't know).

How long does it take for you to eat a stick of fucking butter to worry about mold starting to grow on it?

Are you actually autistic? The water and air exposure and lukewarm temperature of the entire crock are the basis for mold, not the time needed to eat it

meme. Butter should be refrigerated. If you let it sit out, and consume a stick a day, then maybe nothing will ever spoil and you have it room temp from breakfast to dinner, ready to go.

Ignore the idiots who obviously never used one. It is great if your butter continues to go bad before you are done with it.

How does butter even go bad if you have a fridge?
