Hi Mullai, Its looking black color. So let me throw that. Next time i'll try with 2 lb.. I think  i went wrong with the timings. For 2 lb if its taking 20 minutes for each step means i think it will take very less time for 1 lb.I dint realize that. I think for 1 lb butter it takes less than 20  mins to turn ghee. I'm not sure whether i'm right in this concept. Will try it next time and let you know. I got butter from sam's, so its not that costly.VIJI
