Best Answer

Although it is almost impossible to separate Fats from Milk but you can minimize it.

First boil the the milk at for 10-15 minutes, rest it to cool, Refrigerate the milk in a container of aluminium for 10-12 hours then get out the container, separate the thick layer of the Cream and then pass the remaining milk through a "Kitchen strainer" of small pores.

This milk has least amount of fats.Otherwise Skimmed milk with less fats is available in the market.

By "shearing" the fat globules. This is accomplish by high speed blending with various shaped "paddles" that break down the fat's and allows them to stay in suspension.

How does the making of skim or no fat milk demonstrate the property of solubility?

It can be argued yes because whole milk is an emulsion of milk and cream. Tiny fat globules are suspended (but not SOLUBLE) in the water solution of the milk solids, etc that make up milk. The fat will separate on standing - the "cream rises". Making low-fat and skim milk is separating out more of the fat globules, which were not dissolved in the milk.


How do you change whole milk to skim milk?

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.


When the fat content of cow milk is reduced?

Milk fat is removed during production in a separator. Milk can be allowed to separate by allowing it to stand and then skimming the fat off the surface, resulting in cream and whole milk. Additional fat can be removed by separation equipment, producing the various percentages of milk from 2-skim. Homogenization insures that the fat remains suspended in the milk, as opposed to rising to the top as it would in unprocessed milk.


What do whole milk have in that low fat milk doesnt have?
