Milk Value Chain Details and Calculations

Water: hydrometer 1000 sp Gr Tp at 84°F Whole milk hydrometer 1030 sp Gr Tp at 84°F guess: 5% butterfat Cream "A" 1010 sp Gr Tp at 84°F - total of 150 lbs calculated about 25% butterfat Skim "A" 1035 sp gr tp @84f -total of 25.7 lbs + 14.26 = 40 lbs - guess: 0% butterfat

At this concentration our yield of cream was 21% of the whole milk by weight

Reference: Commercial Half and half (10.5% butterfat) = 1020 sp gravity @ 87°F Reference: Commercial Heavy Cream (36% Butterfat) = 1000 sp gravity @ 84
