Optimal beating levels for plain cake texture and volume

Miss Belle Lane of Iowa State College notes batter must vary with ingredient ratios. Miss Lowe tested batter by removing portions after 50, 100, 150, 300, 400 and 1000 strokes, baking samples, then judging appearance texture and volume. The 150 stroke cake looked best while the 1000 stroke cake appeared poorest due to overdeveloped gluten. Beating creates more tunnels than stirring.
