Testing Milk Quality With a Centiile Method
A simple home test to assess milk quality uses a 1 to 50 dilution in water and a candle flame through a glass to gauge opacity. By measuring the remaining visible flame height with a pasteboard strip, depths of about seven eighths inch indicate pure milk, while one and a half inch or more suggests diluted or partially skimmed milk. The method relies on fatty corpuscles affecting opacity. density changes differ with skimming or water addition.
