Butter is made of cream. It is impossible to make butter directly from milk.

Reply to a Comment:

That may be a valid complaint about the following sentence.

[#248582] We make milk into butter.
(This seems a little stilted to me, too.)

However, I think this particular English sentence [#35201] doesn't imply that 100% of the milk is used to make butter.
