No. 82 FEBRUARY .15, 1915 DAIRYING SERIES No. 5 CREAM SEPARATION E. S. Guthrie REAM SEPARATION is one of the important processes in the handling of dairy products. The dairyman who uses a cream separator is in- terested- not only in the proper operation of his machine in order to pre- vent imdue loss of milk- fat, but also in the prop- er location of the sepa- rator from the stand- point of sanitation and convenience. The pur- pose of this lesson is to give the persons operating cream separators an understanding of the principles of separation as well as a few suggestions concerning the operation, the location, and the care of SEPARATION BY THE FORCE OF GRAVITY The separation of cream and skimmed milk is possible because of the dif- ference in the specific gravity of these two substances. The specific gravity of cream is difficult to obtain because cream is exceedingly variable in fat content and because it has a tendency to incorporate air. The specific gravity of milk-fat is .90 or .91. In view of the fact that about one-fourth to one-half of cream is milk-fat, it is readily seen that cream is much lighter than skimmed milk. The force of gravity acts in direct proportion to th^ [1871I.
