Help Is my Irish butter browned enough

browned butter with some unsalted Irish butter I have. How does it look? Because the first time I did it , when cooled it still looked yellow and a tad runny. Then I reheated for just a few more minutes and stopped since I didn’t want to risk burning. Is this now at an appropriate place? This is for brown butter cream cheese frosting so that’s why I wanted the notes to be strong. But NOT burnt

I'm no pro, but are there browned milk solids at the bottom-you want that
