Why is skim milk blue?

User Avatar

Asked by LauraFrog

When raw milk is allowed to stand for a day, the cream will rise to the top. This cream was skimmed off and the remaining milk was called skim milk.

This method is no longer used in most dairies and a mechanical separation of cream and milk is used.

At room temp how long does skimmed milk last?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Skim milk will last as long as low fat or full cream milk. This depends on the processing.

Milk that was pasteurised will last 14 - 16 days.

Milk that was sterilised will last 6 - 9 months.

How many cal in cup of tea with no sugar and skimmed milk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Previous answer - "The tea and no sugar will have no calories, so it depends on the amount of skim milk you put in. So probably between 50 and 80 calories."

How in the heck did you get that total? 100ml of skim miik only contains about 37 cals. Most people only use about 30 - 50mls making tea. But, for arguements sake we suppose you make the tea with 100ml of skmi milk (which is a heck of a lot for just tea) and the tea - without sugar = contains no cals, then the smallest answer is be about 37 cals max.

How do you change whole milk to skim milk?

User Avatar

Conventional method of making skim milk involved removing a thick layer of fat from whole milk. However, these days a process called as centrifugation is used to separate the fat content from the milk. The milk that is obtained after removing all of its fat is called as skim milk.

Joe's Dairy Farm has 100 gallons of milk that is 4.6 percent butterfat How much skim milk should be mixed with it to make milk that is 3.2 percent fat?

Asked by Wiki User

let express percentages as fractions so that 1.5%=1.5/100

let express all volumes in gallons so that 50g:= 50

let x be the unknown amount of cream

You can state a linear equation for the absolute fat content as

50 (1.5/100)+x(40/100)=(50+x)(4/100)

Which gives

x(40/100-4/100)=200/100-75/100

multiply both sides by 100

x(40-4)=200-75

divide by 36

x=(200-75)/36=3.48

Thus you have to add 3.48 gallons of cream 40% to 50 gallons of low fat milk 1.5 to have a mixture with 4% fat in it. I hardly expect you can call the mixture "milk" since such a procedure is illegal in most countries.

Why is whole milk cheaper than skimmed milk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Whole milk is NOT usually cheaper than skim milk. Skim milk is usually cheaper, because the milkfat that is "skimmed" of the milk has value and can be sold on its own.

How much does a gallon of fat free milk weigh?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The weight of a gallon of milk is only slightly greater than a gallon of water, about 3% more. A US gallon with 2% milkfat weighs about 8.4 pounds, compared to 8.6 pounds for "whole milk" and 8.35 pounds for a gallon of water.

Milk is 87 % water, thus a gallon of milk will not differ from milk much.

The 8.6 lbs/gal factor (whole milk) is correct. The weight increases as fat is removed.

By weight:

Milk : 8.6 lb/gallon

Condensed milk : 9.4 lb/gallon

Cream 8.28 lb/gallon

* The British or Imperial Gallon is defined as exactly 10 pounds of water. You can convert the above figures by using 1 Imperial Gallon = 1.201 US gallons.

Is fat free milk good for you?

Asked by Wiki User

It depends.

If you are on an ultra low fat diet then low fat cheese is not part of that.

Is it healthy? Yes, it's as healthy as full fat cheese - it is a good source of protein and calcium. At the very least, it's not unhealthy.

However - and the following is just personal opinion and not scientific fact - I've found that when I am dieting and can only have a small piece of low fat cheese that I don't feel like I've sated my desire for cheese. For the same amount of calories I am happier to grate half the amount of strong 'real' cheese and feel satisfied than I am to have a larger amount of 'fake cheese'. And 'real' cheese is a natural product rather than something that has been processed to contain less fat.
