Butter made from relatively large fat globules is much softer, churns much easier and more rapidly and contains more moist- ure than butter made from relatively small globules. This is Relative Size of the Smallest and Largest Globules Observed o. Tig. 84 Volume—.5236 cutoic microns Volume— cubic microns Diameter—1 micron Diameter— microns clearly shown by the results of Hunziker^, who, by centrifugal separation, produced different lots of cream from the same milk, containing average large globules ( cubic microns) and average small globules ( cubic microns). Sixteen churnings were made from each type of cream. The churning conditions, as to temperature of cream, time held, amount of cream, richness of cream, acidity of cream, etc., were the same for all churnings. The results are shown in the following table: The small-globule cream churned with difficulty, the butter required over twice as much time to "break" as the large-globule cream, and it formed round, hard, smooth granules, which did not pack read- ily, and made a very firm and crumbly butter.
