At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source:
To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909-1979), who was known to a wide audience for his pun and "Noch'n Gedicht", with a short quatrain:
"There is certainly a lot of beautiful about it,
on the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can - also leave it alone. "
(H.Erhardt)

The "butter source" is reminiscent of "cooling technology" from the last century. To make butter, the milk must be well chilled. And so the peasants dragged their milk churns to this spring, because they reliably provided clear and very cold water.

To make butter, the milk must be well cooled. For this purpose, the butter source was used in the olden days, from which ice-cold water bubbles up all year round - today, however, significantly less.
